Te aroha ki ngā hononga

We are born to connect. Born social. Strengthening our bonds with others is a central part of our lives. And when these connections are tested or feel broken, we struggle to know what to do. We can feel lost and distant. We can struggle to experience positive emotions. We sometimes use unhealthy ways to try to feel connected. We can spin out of control. Lack of connection has serious consequences. It is a sad irony in this age of social media that many people feel more alone and empty than ever before. Actively working to draw on the aroha that exists in the beauty of simple connections between people is the message of these whakataukī. Our ancestors’ wisdom reminds us of ways to experience real connectivity in the aroha intimately woven between us.
