#87 aroha

#87 aroha- love, compassion, or affectionate regard

- from Maori, New Zealand

It is about a return to values such as aroha, hospitality, generosity and mutual respect.

To show aroha you must care for those around you and make sure that they are happy, because if they aren't, you aren't.
