a year ago, i woke up miles from lahaina burning to the ground. thousands lost their homes, a hundred lost their lives. i lost nothing except for a carefree vacation, which is nothing relative to everything. we spent the week in red cross evacuation centers and, when they were full, we slept under the stars in the bed of the pickup truck. sixteen year old me would have reveled at the charm of a spontaneous surf trip to hawaii. if only she knew the circumstances, i thought to myself one night. why do we so often romanticize that sense of freedom, that connection to nature over the very real physical discomfort one can only feel from awkward hours pressed against the cold, unrelenting ridges of a truck’s metal frame? i smile, knowing the answer. comfort is no match for human’s desire for what is primal and raw. i feel something hit my forehead, then my bare shoulder. my eyes shoot open. the silhouette of trees sway under moonlit clouds beginning to burst with rain. i close my eyes. i feel it all.

Wonderfully written! I’m so grateful that I was able to visit Lahaina once before. Such a magical place and such a tragedy

surreal experience. i’m sorry you had to experience that. but seems you learned alot and started viewing things in a different perspective. truly comfort is no match for human desire.

I think first-world humans forget how close to nature we are. Monkman’s work helps remind me of this, he said something like, “We learned from the land, always from the land”. I hope we learn something from all these wildfires and the suffering they have caused. Thanks for sharing, Ted 🙏

Wow Ted, I didn't know you were on island for that. Yeah, this was a horrifying event. Lahaina was historic, the damage beyond belief. It touched almost every family here. Glad you weren't closer to the madness and you found yourself safe.

Beautiful words. And I totally understand what you mean about the desire to experience something primal and raw, even if that results in our physical discomfort. I have experienced the same and those experiences are some of the most cherished and profound memories that I have.

The luxury of choosing our discomforts...that's what we probably crave.
