English Friends
Deana traveled from two days so she could put her feet on the grass in Glastonbury, England. She arrived in Bristol England, and hailed her hired car to St. Anne’s B&B and Estelle the B&B met her with open arms saying “Welcome back, lovely we are so glad you are here.” Deana got to her room and just fell backwards on the bed, like a young kid and she said out loud “So glad to be back in Avalon”.

A New Kind of Aloha
Leilani crawls out of the rubble, where she laid under a tent and particle board, she can hardly move so she rolls onto her back and all she can see are the palm trees swaying in the trade winds. Leilani looks around the area around her and notices the bird bath has water collected from the rain, so she cups her hand to gather the water. Leilani stands up a look into the street, noticing that the neighbor’s homes have been demolished by some type of storm, there are cars in the neighbor’s trees and her home is the only home standing the same, her car is there, and her fruits and veggies are still growing in the veggie patch. Leilani grabs an apple banana from the tree and decides to walk around her neighborhood to see who is around and she does not see anyone. The chicken restaurant is flattened to the ground, the pet store is damaged, there are bodies in the parking lot. Leilani checks to see if anyone has a pulse or needs medical attention and no one had a viable sign of life. Leilani starts to remember that Hawaii was supposed to have a hurricane, and this must be the destruction that is left. Leilani decides to go back home and get her car so she can look more into Mililani and then look at the rest of Oahu. She goes home to gather from the fruits and veggies from her garden and places them in a basket so she can eat but also share with others if they need food, she goes to her kitchen sink to see if she has water and she was thanking the Universe the water was still coming out. She decides to fill up water jugs to put in her car and give to other people or to give to animals. Leilani stops a few minutes and makes a crystal grid in her yard, thank the Universe and the elementals that took car of her, her home and made sure she still had food to harvest from her garden. Leilani takes the clear quartz and makes a star pattern, then rose quartz and then Smokey quartz, she knew that no matter what she may see coming next, she had to balance the energy around her home, her neighborhood and on her island because Hawai’i’s ley lines were connected to The United Kingdom and if she did not do this crystal grid it would impact more than just her island. Leilani remembers she needs to check on her cat scarlet, so she goes to all the rooms, closets, and goes upstairs to look under her bed and she hears scarlet purring and tears just roll down her face. Leilani knew she already had so much to be thankful for but for her cat to still be there she was beyond blessed. She pulls scarlet out and gives her a hug and put her in the car too. Leilani was not sure how long she had been under that rubble in her yard and was not sure if the storms had passed completely so she wanted Scarlet with her so she could make sure they were safe. Leilani drives onto the H-2 Highway, and she must move to miss turned over cars, trees, and plants, she was shocked at the site because she has not seen Hawai’i like this, and it made her sad to think that all the people could be dead, and the Aloha may be gone forever.
