A place where With Aloha, Love Lives. Dubbed the Messages of Life WALL, what started as a modest project took off rapidly. Soon, the wall was awash in a riot of colorful sticky notes bearing messages of faith, hope, longing, despair, courage, laughter and love. Compiled by MyPearlCity.com community manager Barry Villamil, Stuck on Aloha showcases more than a dozen exceptional individuals and hundreds of notes that convey the heartfelt aloha found at the WALL.
