CHAPTER 6 TOUCHES ON THE HAWAIIAN DIVIDE

Chapter 6 begins, tired and beat up mentally, physically too. Burned through chapter 5 earlier today, at the same location, Barnes & Noble's cafe. Writer's drain. I know what I'll be writing for 6, it's going to be about the great Hawaiian divide. Touching on the two camps of Hawaiians. The ones with pride and understand that hard work brings success, they realize what took place in 1893 in that the Hawaiian Kingdom was overthrown by the Americans. However the Hawaiians in this first camp do not feel victimized, they are strong and use what God has given them to survive in the so-called white man's Hawaii, the white man's world with white man's rules and laws.

The other camp, number two houses the lazy, the victim of what happened in 1893, until this day they call for recompense. Rightfully so, if there is any injustice of humanity, the victims should be done right. However, there must be a time to say, "Okay let's move on, be strong and be free, and not depend on anyone's assistance for if we carry on on our own, no one, no one can take what we've worked hard for, our spirit of moving forward and to teach our young to do the same. But no, this camp plays the victim from generation to generation. I can see their Hawaiian, Kanaka Maoil ancestors rolling in their graves. To be lazy in most cultures is a shame, it is a sign of weakness, something these victimized Hawaiians do not understand.
