You are not put on this planet to produce anything with your body. You are on this planet to produce something with your soul. Your body is simply and merely the tool of your soul.

Fakatapu ki he Tae ha mai

Ke ata ke tau fakatoulea<<<<<<<<<<<<
My fonua (placenta) buried in the Eora Nation/Baime Dreaming (Sydney, Australia)and ancestral roots deeply embedded in my Island Nation The Kingdom of Tonga, nourishes my belonging to these spaces.>>>>The waving coconut trees being the first to welcome me or the final farewell on each journey home. Ha'a Fisi mo Ha'amoa (paternal) and Ha'a Havea (maternal) are the clans I spawn from, that guide my existence. >>>A full tusk maiden Aostellelia<<<<
trained in Pacific Island performing arts and contemporary dance, I’m a performance generator of ancient ritualistic intensity with a machete edge sense for absurdity, informed by the frangipanniless margins, cultivating a socio political garden.>>>>As a global citizen<<<<<<
I take refuge in Marrickville>>>Inner west yes yes<<<>>>The original battleground of multiculturalism, an old community of the ever-changing "New Australians" rich in culture, colour, language, family and cuisine of epic proportions. It was a hard place to grow up, no beach, or picturesque reason to live here, but it has feeling, one of acceptance,respect and family that we have built in this community, It keeps me here and others coming and or going.<<<>>>The loves of my life are my Grandparents, Parents (tehina) Sister Seini and (tunga'ane) Brother Veni, and my whole family tribe vibe..I also suffer a severe case of greedy guuuurrrrl for good food and sick ass shoes....

Aloooohhhhaaaa, please forgive us for not getting back to you right away. Its been so crazy with the new shop opening & then Aisea just completed his 1st two pe'as & was given a high chiefs title in samoa. He was blessed with the title here in honolulu by Su'a Suluape. During that time we had visitors from every where. So now all the madness has died down, everyones gone home & things are just settling in. Could you send me you number again or if you want you could call the shop anytime after 3pm Hawaii time. He usually gets into the shop at about that time. I didnt forget about you & so I reminded him that he needed to get in touch with you. He said to tell you that you guys might be related. anyway I'll give you the shop # or you can leave me your number. 808*330*5612
We are a few of the native warriors fighting for the cause, And The cause is, Our people, Native people, Native women, children, and elders We need more Warriors; We need more positive influences for our people, And for our children.
