If you are reading this right now, you are part of the Talking Story Ho‘ohana Community. Positive outlook required, but that’s pretty much it.
Wasn’t that easy?
Because it’s always been that easy, some who have been in our Ho‘ohana Community for a long time now may not even recall how it happened … yet now they are giving out leis, strung together in a style all their own. You gotta love it.
Scott Hodge has given a lei to Christopher Bailey:
“Doesn’t this guy look like the kind of guy you would want to have a cup of coffee with? Seriously. His name is Christopher Bailey and he has a blog with a very cool name – “the ALCHEMY of SOULFUL WORK: Exploring the holistic relationship between our work, our life, & our spirits.”
You gotta like that.
Christopher’s blog is refreshing for a lot of reasons. For one, he clearly thinks about what he’s writing about (we appreciate this, Chris.) He also writes with a refreshing dose of authenticity. And I also appreciate his positive and upbeat style of writing (even in regards to weeds!!). I don’t think I’ve ever read a depressing post from this guy (hold on…I’m checking the archives…) Ok, I’m right.”

When I read Scott’s lei for Chris, he said something that compelled me to leave a comment for him … click in and find out what it was.
Footnote:
This month the giving of May Leis continues to celebrate the online community we have become outside Talking Story, and I am so pleased to be your hostess. I will point you to them all month long.
Leis are Hawaii’s most visible symbol of May Day, however there is much more to this special day. Most islanders believe that the sole purpose of May Day is to engage in random acts of kindness, to practice being Mea Ho‘okipa, and to celebrate the Aloha spirit.
Why restrict such wonderful intention to just one day? In honor of the entire month of May, our Ho‘ohana this month will be to share the spirit of May Day and the gifts of May you are able to give. — from this month’s Ho‘ohana™ May Day Gifts of Aloha
