Here is a truth you often don’t hear:

Traumatized women have the potential to become the most powerful people in this world.

The most ignorant members of society call this type of woman “damaged.” But she is the most powerful type of woman there is.

What they forget is that survivors have the most dangerous advantage of all: resilience.

When you try and you try but you can never bring a woman down, you’ll know there is no going back.

Don’t fool yourself. You could never defeat her. You never will.

This is the woman who will always rise from the dead; Lady Lazarus, after going through hell and back.

This is the woman who has burned her feet in the flames time and time again and always lives to tell another tale – even if she has to crawl back to life. . . .

When someone tells her, “You can’t do it,” she says, “Watch me.”

She is fiery light birthed out of wintery darkness. Brought into the underworld by Hades, Persephone brings forth spring and rebirth when she reemerges finally from the cold.

She owns her shadows and seamlessly weaves them into the fabric of her freedom, creativity, imagination and independence. . . .

She lived all of her nightmares in high definition. She was given every reason to give up, handed every justification to never believe in herself or anyone.

But, there is raw magic in the ways in which she cultivates a faith in herself, to manifest the dreams her soul was meant to bring forth.

Despite it all, she still conquers.

She still survives and thrives.

The “damaged” woman is capable of immense manifestation not just in spite of, but because of the traumas she has gone through.

There is no one more motivated than a woman who has constantly been told what she cannot do or who she cannot be throughout her lifetime.

There is no one more determined to succeed than someone who has nothing left to lose.

The “damaged” woman doesn’t sign up for the hardships of her journey – but she plays the hell out of the cards she’s been dealt.

The “damaged” woman is not damaged at all – she is wounded, and in channeling and healing her wounds, she becomes the source of incredible energy, the site of unbelievable potential for abundance and change.

She possesses the power to use her wounds for the greater good and her highest good.

She builds her own success and becomes her own rugged hero; tends to her own scraped knees.

She uses every stone thrown at her to build the foundation for her empire.

Brick by brick she builds – and despite every attempt to tear her walls down, she rescues herself again and again.

Despite it all, this type of survivor may still face hatred, envy, greed from those around her. . . .

As a result, she becomes the survivor of countless witch hunts, the target of many persecutors. Yet when they try to burn her at the stake, she does what comes naturally: she resurrects herself. . . .

Now when she creates, she creates new worlds and transforms and manifests on a level that cannot be recreated by someone who never had to struggle to survive.

When you hear the voice of a powerful survivor and the will of a warrior – there is nothing you can do but to stop and listen.

She is the voice of a million lifetimes lived.

She is the voice of the hopeless and the powerless when the fire is brought back to their eyes. She is the harbinger of the justice that the voiceless have longed to hear and feel and touch.

Regardless of how much you try and how it may seem, you can never truly bring a survivor like this to her knees; she already knows the value her scars bring.

She knows how to fill the cracks between her wounds with gold.

She knows how to transform each bitter word cast upon her into an iron-clad will that will set her and other caged birds free.

You can’t ever defeat a “damaged” woman, because she knows exactly how to save herself.

Inspired by the recent events on Maunakea, some of Hawaiʻi’s most notable and accomplished recording artists and composers joined their voices to record “Kū Haʻaheo E Kuʻu Hawaiʻi.” Composed by Hinaleimoana Wong, this mele has become a rallying call for our lāhui to aloha ʻāina.

“Kū Haʻaheo” will be included on a soon to be released album entitled “Kūhaʻo Maunakea” – a compilation featuring 18 new compositions documenting the events and swell of Hawaiian community unity around aloha ʻāina associated with the Kū Kiaʻi Mauna movement.

The album will be available digitally through iTunes in late September and 100% of all sales will be donated to the Hawaiian Unity and Liberation Institute (HULI), which provides logistical support to the protectors on the frontline of Maunakea. Donations to HULI can be made at https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising….

Lyrics & Translation

Kū Haʻaheo E Kuʻu Hawaiʻi

by Hinaleimoana Wong

Kaiko’o ka moana kā i lana nei Hawai’i

Nāueue a hālulu ka honua a Haumea

Nākulukulu e ka lani ki’eki’e kau mai i luna

Auē ke aloha ‘ole a ka malihini

*Ho’ōho:

Kū ha’aheo e ku’u Hawai’i

Mamaka kaua o ku’u ‘āina

‘O ke ehu kakahiaka o nā ‘ōiwi o Hawai’i nei

No ku’u lahui e hā’awi pau a i ola mau

Auhea wale ‘oukou pū’ali koa o Keawe

Me ko Kamalālāwalu la me Kākuhihewa

‘Alu mai pualu mai me ko Manokalanipō

Ka’i mai ana me nā kama a Kahelelani

E nāue imua e nā poki’i a e inu wai ‘awa’awa

E wiwo’ole a ho’okūpa’a ‘a’ohe hope e ho’i mai ai

A na’i wale nō kākou kaukoe mau i ke ala

Auē ke aloha ‘ole a ka malihini

E lei mau i lei mau kākou e nā mamo aloha

I lei wehi ‘a’ali’i wehi nani o ku’u ‘āina

Hoe a mau hoe a mau no ka pono sivila

A ho’iho’i hou ‘ia mai ke kū’oko’a

Translation:

The sea of Hawai’i surges in turmoil

The earth of Haumea rumbles and shakes

The highest heavens shudder up above

Alas! Woeful indeed are the heartless foreigners

*Stand tall my Hawai’i

Band of warriors of my land

The new dawn for our people of Hawai’i is upon us

For my nation I give my all so that our legacy lives on

Where are you soldiers of Keawe

Along with those of Maui and O’ahu

Unite, join together with those of Kaua’i

Marching alongside the descendants of Ni’ihau

Move forward young ones and drink of the bitter waters

Be fearless, steadfast for there is no turning back

Let’s press onward straight on the path of victory

Alas! Woeful are the heartless foreigners!

Be honored always oh beloved descendants of the land

Let us wear the honored ‘a’ali’i of our beloved land

Paddle on in our pursuit of civil justice

Until our dignity and independence is restored.

Mother Mary’s message for you

My child, there are things I perceive, observe and feel that are not visible or audible to humankind. My beloved, I see the beginnings of progress before you do yourself. Because the seed takes all its might to force its way up into the heavy soil that gives sustenance, you must believe me when I tell you that you too are flourishing!

In order for it to find its way, it has to be determined to do so. With even the most dedicated gardener watching over it, the seed has to break open in order for the plant to thrive. So, see me as the heavenly gardener and you as my beautiful seed. I cannot wait to watch you grow and grow!

What you need to know

In the beginning, indications of spiritual development might be hard to detect within yourself, but eventually they become so blatant that your entire universe will change. Bear in mind that you must work with tremendous faith even when you can no longer feel your own progress taking place.

Our Lady is here to let you know that you are actually changing and that your beliefs are one of the most important tools you have on the way to enlightenment. You are growing in purposeful power each and every day and this will continue to be so as you move on into the future!

Prayer for healing

Believe in yourself, listen to that small little voice inside your head rather than what other people try to advise you to do. Believe in yourself and pray. The Divine Mother’s compassion will safeguard and nourish your blooming as a result of your devotion.

As soon as you are ready, say this prayer or one of your own, “Our Lady of Quiet Blossoming, I sense your presence close to me as you walk by my side throughout all I do in life. I am your tiny seed that becomes stronger and bigger each day. I’m working on having more faith in myself, my intuition and my gut instincts!”
