Kohola
Kohola…another very strong spirit animal in my journey is the kohola (humpback whale). My experience with them started with Jacob’s involvement with Ocean Project. These majestic giants grace our Hawaiian waters every year after a long journey from the northern Pacific and whale watching on Maui is one of my favorite activities and actually has sometimes been a spiritual experience. If you ever have the opportunity to be up close to a kohola and look into their eyes you can just tell there is an ancient wisdom they possess.
This became another environmental advocacy issue for us to support and for several years participated in the annual Humpback Whale Sanctuary Count and encourage you to try it, at least once.

Life is not measured by the breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
