The number 1 predictor 

of a long Life is

the number of positive 

social connections

you have.

 Wendy Suzuki, PhD

People with stronger 

social relationships 

have a 50% stronger 

chance of survival

across every age, sex, 

and health status.

and Layton.

Perhaps the secret 
of living well is not in 
having all the answers 
but in pursuing 
unanswerable questions 
in good company.

"Large Ohia Lehua Pattern on Blue" 

 by the design studio HNLdesigns

The lehua is the first tree

that springs up from a

recent lava flow.

It’s for that reason,

when we speak in Hawaiian

and we speak of people who are

 skilled, strong, and beloved,

they’re often referred to as

pua lehua, or lehua flowers.

They, like the lehua, have a

kind of resilience, a strength and

 a grace about them.
