Tulsi Gabbard opens up about the true definition of ‘Aloha’ in Hawaii
The former Democrat was elated to be featured on ‘The Veterans Project’ and thanked the group for making the time to come all the way to Hawaii.
The group was kind enough to click Gabbard, first at a hilltop and then embracing the ocean.
While sharing the astounding snap of herself, sitting at the top of the hill, Gabbard wrote, “First of all, I'm so glad that you came out here to Hawaii. You’ve been able to actually spend time here and get a glimpse into what is so special about Hawaii.”
She then described in some detail the true meaning of the word ‘Aloha’ often associated with the state of Hawaii.
She said, “Yes, there are the beautiful mountains, beaches, sunrises, and all of these postcard moments, but I think you also felt the Aloha spirit, which is really what makes this place so special. Aloha, for those who don't know what it means, is how we all start our conversations.”

She continued, “And generally, instead of saying goodbye, we say aloha. The reason is because of what this word actually means at its deepest level. “Alo” means to share and “ha” represents our eternal identity as spirit, children of God.”
Tulsi Gabbard claims in Hawaii ‘Aloha’ is a 'way of life'
Gabbard delved into the origin of the word and informed her fans and the group about its usage by the Native Hawaiians.
She said, “In the Native Hawaiian greeting of aloha, according to the elders and Native Hawaiian practitioners, when they greet each other, they will not only share a verbal aloha, but physically, hold each other's shoulders, close their eyes, touch foreheads, touch noses, and just take a breath together and actually share that breath. It's a reminder that we are all connected. We are all children of God. We are all family in that sense.”
She added, “Regardless of race, religion, social status, gender, or any of these labels that are increasingly used to tear us apart or differentiate us. Rather, we’re reminded of the intrinsic spirit that binds us all together. Aloha allows us to have real conversations in that spirit.”
Gabbard described her time in Hawaii when she was young and all that she used to do while stating that the place instilled in her a sense of duty
She wrote, “Here in Hawaii, aloha really is a way of life. My first swim lesson as a kid was at Ala Moana Beach Park. Growing up near the ocean, exploring these mountains, and being raised with a sincere appreciation for the life and the land around me, I developed a sense of responsibility.”
She concluded, “ In Hawaiian, this is called our Kuleana — it’s a sense of duty and purpose, to not live for oneself, but to live in service to God, live in service to others, and to protect Mother Earth, protect this planet.”
