ʻO ka mālamaʻana i kahi mea kōkua mua i ka lima ka manaʻo maikaʻi, ināʻoe ma ka home, ma ka hana, a ma ka kaʻa paha. He mea nui loa ka hoʻolaunaʻana i hoʻokahi i kēlā me kēia manawa āu e hele ai i nā'āina'ē, a he mea nui ināʻoe e hoʻolālā ana i kahi huakaʻi i'Afelika. ʻO ka'āinaʻAmelika he'āina nui loa ia, aʻo ka maikaʻi o nāʻoihana mālama ola e like me ka nui o ka mea e hele aiʻoe, a peheaʻoe e hana ai i kou wā e hele nei.
