What is Living Pono??

When I was searching for an identity for my new journey I wanted something that embodied an image I could really get behind. As I was searching the internet one day, I ran across a page about Hawaii, and the definition of Living Pono...

"Pono is a Hawaiian word with no direct or literal translation to English. Or, in other words, there is no word in the English language that is as simple, elegant, and beautiful in its meaning as the word pono. The best translation of pono into English is more of a concept of living by the golden rule of doing to others as you would have them do unto you.

Living pono means treating others with respect, an ideal that transcends humanity and extends to the entire world. When you live pono, not only are you being positive and supportive of others but also you’re living in a way that your life doesn’t negatively affect the global ecosystem upon which all life depends."

Now this whole Living Pono thing really intrigued me at this point. The concept of living by the golden rule, and being positive and supportive and kind to our ecosystem are exactly how I see myself living my life!!Now do not get me wrong, life is not all unicorns and rainbows, but I am sure as shit going to give it the old College try (whatever that means). I am so glad you are here with me as I start my journey to help myself, and help others start Living Pono!
