 Who are individuals who have helped to influence your values and decisions?

There are 3 individuals who have helped influence my values and decisions. Those people are my uncle, my cousin and my best friend. My Uncle has taught me so many things like save money, invest, be a team player, be consistent and also be independent. He helped me financially to the point where I was able to buy my first car and he also taught me to never be in debt or owe anyone anything. The next person is my best friend. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't be the person I am today. Her support and wisdom have made such an impact in my life. She's an amazing role model to not just me, but everyone around her. There was a day where I faced a particularly hard time in my life and I remember feeling a lot of negative emotions and thinking a lot of negative thoughts. She was the main person who was there for me and instead of letting my emotions and thoughts get to me, she helped me reflect on it and not let it affect me. Everyone knows I have so much love and respect for her because she not only helped me find personal growth, but also never gave up on me. Last, but never least is my cousin. We've been together since day 1, she has helped me face so many challenges, along with giving me advice to making the right decisions and also really thinking or seeing a different point of view about the choices I was gonna make. She has supported me and let me know she will always have my back and be on my side no matter what. She also encourages me to take the risks of doing things that I second guess about and not let anyone's opinions affect me whether I'm close to them or not. I am forever grateful for them and the impact they have made in my life.

 In my opinion the most pressing issue that relates to shared/common resources is the issue I'm working on, which is the Hawaiian Fishery Management. The common things Kaiaulu and the Hawaiian Fishery/Fishpond Management share is the Connection to the Environment, Adaptive and Place-based Management, and Integration with the Ahupua'a System. The reason why I believe the people, including my classmates and friends showed know about the issue is because not only is this apart of our culture, it's also the way our Kupunas learned to survive. As a Native Hawaiian, I love learning about how our Kupunas/Ancestors lived and because of them we to live the way we do now. I believe every Native Hawaiian should learn about our culture and why it's so important. The reason why Fishponds are so important is because it's a solution to enhance the food security of local communities in Hawaii, they also provided Hawaiians with a regular supply of fish when ocean fishing wasn't ...

In my opinion I believe one of the most important issues is the Hawaiian Fishery Management. The reason why I believe it is important is because not only is this a part of our culture, it's also the way our Kupunas learned to survive. As a Native Hawaiian, I love learning about our Kupunas/Ancestors and the way they lived. I believe every local and especially Native Hawaiians should learn more about our culture and why it's so important. Also the reason why Fishponds are so important is because it's a solution to enhance the food security of local communities in Hawaii, they also provided Hawaiians with a regular supply of fish when ocean fishing wasn't possible. The reason why we have Hawaiian Fishery/Fishpond Management is because "people rather import it then grow it themselves".
