Beach Walk 624 – To You Sweetheart, Aloha

I am actually in New York as I write this, and it gave me so much pleasure to be immersed in some archive files and music I found when putting this episode together.

If you’ve been to Hawaii you’ve likely heard this style of music either on the radio or while sipping mai tai’s at the beach watching the sunset. Or maybe as you view “Kanoe Miller”:http://www.kanoemiller.com dance the hula at the “Halekulani Hotel”:http://www.halekulani.com. It conveys so beautifully the feeling of those swaying palm trees; I just love it.

I also want to dedicate this to Tommy Sea, who is finally selling his house in Michigan and will be Hawaii-bound very soon. It’s been a long haul for him, and he certainly understands Aloha. If you liked this, please purchase the song; info immediately below.

Beach Walk 623 – Solving Problems Side by Side

If you watch this show regularly, you know that I like teasing apart the little nuances and discrepancies in how we use words, the language.

It packs so much subtle energy, and that energy can actually interfere with the pursuit of happiness IMO. One example is the difference between _compromise_ and _negotiation_. In compromise, it looks like two people facing (off) against each other, with the problem in the middle. Both people typically feel like they have to give up something in order to solve the problem in the middle, to save the relationship, which is also in the middle. In negotiation, people can sit side by side and face the problem/relationship together, looking to see how much of a win each can gain from creative problem-solving. Negotiation is deliciously devoid of tit for tat energy.

Hawaiian word:
Lanakila: _win, triumph_

I watched an episode of “Sixty Minutes”:http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/03/14/60minutes/main3939721.shtml explaining how interrupted or insufficient sleep can lead to premature aging. Many people “have been making fun”:http://www.crankygeeks.com/2008/04/episode_111_windows_7_on_tap_y_1.php of the “death by blogging article in the NY Times”:http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/06/technology/06sweat.html?scp=2&sq=death+blog&st=nyt but the underlying story included people who feel the need to be up 24/7 (internet time) to stay at the top of their game.

Hawaiian word:
Hiamoe: _sleep_
Hiamoe iki: _nap_
