No ke aha i hāʻawiʻia ai nā pōhaku makamae i kekahi mau mahina o ka makahiki? Ua hanaʻia kēia ma muli o nā meaʻokoʻa'ē aʻe o nā kānaka?

ʻO nā pōhaku like ʻole ka like ʻole e like me nā poʻe like ʻole i like i kekahi mau mahina, a ʻōlelo ʻia kekahi mau ʻano pono e hele mai i kekahi mau pōhaku i ka wā a pau i ka malama a i ka manawa paha e ʻōlelo ai kēia poʻe kānaka e komo lākou. ʻoiaʻiʻo, a ʻo ka hapa nui o lākou he nui paha e pili ana i ka hana kūpono. Akā ʻo ka hana kuhi he hana maʻamau o ka noʻonoʻo a i ʻole he mea hoʻowalewale o ka noʻonoʻo wale; ʻoiai, ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i ka kiʻi me ke kūkulu ʻana i ke ʻano o ka noʻonoʻo. Ma ke ala like i ke kumu o ke kiʻi ka hoʻoweliweli o kahi mea, ʻo ia nō ka mea pono, nā manaʻo like ʻole e pili ana i nā mea kūpono o nā pōhaku ma muli o nā ʻano maikaʻi i nā pōhaku a me ka ʻike i pili i nā mea e pono ai nā pōhaku. Aka, aka o ka nalo o na ike i koe wale no, aoie hana ole o ka noonoo, me he mea la o ka ike mua i malamaia ma na moolelo o na kane. Hoʻokumu nā mea āpau i kahi e hana ai ka mea kūlohelohe. Hāʻawi kekahi mau mea i kahi kikowaena ikaika e hana ʻia ai i nā ikaika e hana ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe. ʻO kēia ke kumu o ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana o nāʻokoʻa o nā meaʻokoʻa i ka nui o kekahi. Hāʻawi i ka ʻahu i mākaukau a hana ʻia i loko o kahi kelepona kahi laina e hiki ke alakaʻi ʻia i ka wahi e ʻike ʻia. ʻAʻole holo ke kamaʻilio ma ka kaula siliki, ʻoiai ia e holo ma ke kelepona keleawe. Ma ke ʻano like me ke keleawe he mea ʻike, a he mea lawe paha i ka uila, no laila ua lilo nā pōhaku i nā pahuhopu e hana ai kekahi mau kaha, a me ke keleawe he mea hoʻohālike ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka uila ma mua o nā metala ʻē aʻe, e like me ka alima a i ʻole alakaʻi, no laila he maikaʻi nā pōhaku. kikowaena no ko lākou mau pūʻali ma mua o nā pōhaku ʻē aʻe. ʻO ka mea maʻemaʻe eʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ʻo ia ke kikowaena o ka ikaika.

Hōʻali kēlā me kēia mahina i kahi mana e hoʻohilahila ai i ka honua a me nā mea a pau o ka honua, a inā he mau pōhaku ko lākou mau kumupaʻa he mau kikowaena ikaika, pono paha e kuhi ʻia kekahi mau pōhaku ikaika i kēlā mau kikowaena ikaika. i ka manawa i ʻoi aku ka ikaika o ka mahina. ʻAʻole hoʻi he mea kuhihewa paha i ka manaʻo, aia ka ʻike i nā wā i loaʻa ai nā pōhaku i kekahi mau ʻano maikaʻi a no kēia ʻano o nā kūpuna o ka poʻe i ʻike i ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā pōhaku i kā lākou mau mahina. ʻO ka hoʻopili ʻana i kekahi waiwai kūikawā no nā pōhaku he mea ʻole no kēia a ʻo kēlā kanaka paha ka mea i kiʻi mai i ka puke a almanac a i ʻole ka mea i loaʻa ai ka ʻike a loaʻa ʻole kekahi i ka ʻike like ʻole iā ia. Inā manaʻo kekahi iā lākou iho e hoʻokaʻa i kahi pōhaku nona, ʻaʻole i ka waiwai kūʻai, e loaʻa paha i ka pōhaku i mea nona. Akā he mea kūpono ʻole a hoʻopōʻino paha e hoʻopili i nā pono fanciful i nā pōhaku a i ʻole ke palani ʻia ʻo nā pōhaku i kekahi mau mahina, no ka mea e hana kēia mea i ke kanaka e hilinaʻi i kekahi mea ʻē aʻe e kōkua iā ia i ka mea e pono ai ke hana iā ia iho . ^ E Ha yM. ʻO ka pīhoihoi a ʻaʻole i loaʻa ke kumu maikaʻi o ka manaʻoʻiʻo, ua hōʻeha i kekahi kanaka, ʻaʻole i kōkua, no ka mea, e hoʻolalelale ana i ka noʻonoʻo, kau ia ma luna o nā mea palupalu, kumu ia e makaʻu ai i kahi e ʻimi ai ʻo ia i ka pale, a e hilinaʻi i nā mea hou aʻe. mamua o na mea ano e pau ai.

Aia kekahi diamond a iʻole kekahi pōhaku makamae'ē aʻe i kahi waiwai'ē aʻe ma mua o ka mea i hōʻikeʻia e ke kūlana kālā? a inā pēlā, pehea ka hilinaʻiʻana o ke diamona a iʻole ka pōhaku'ē aʻe paha?

He waiwai ko kēlā me kēia pōhaku ma mua o kāna waiwai kūʻai, akā ma ke ʻano like ʻole a ʻike ʻole ka poʻe āpau i kāna waiwai kūʻai i ʻike ʻole ʻia e nā mea a pau loa ke kumu o ka pōhaku ma mua o kāna waiwai kālā. Ke ʻike ʻole nei kekahi kanaka i ke kumukūʻai o ke daimana ʻole e like me ke kīpī maʻamau. Akā ʻo ka connoisseur ʻike e ʻike i kona waiwai, e ʻoki ia, i mea e hōʻike ai i kona nani, a laila hāʻawi aku i kahi kūpono kūpono.

ʻO ka waiwai o ka pōhaku iā ia iho e pili ana i kona lilo ʻana i kikowaena maikaʻi no ka huki ʻana i kekahi mau mea a i ʻole nā ​​mana a me ka puʻunaue ʻana o ia mau mea. ʻO nā pōhaku like ʻole e huki i nā mana like ʻole. ʻAʻole pono nā ikaika a pau i ka poʻe like. Kōkua kekahi mau pūʻali i kekahi a hōʻeha i kekahi. ʻO ka pōhaku e huki ai i kekahi ikaika hiki ke kōkua i kekahi a e hōʻeha i kekahi. Pono e ʻike i ka mea e pono ai iā ia iho, a e ʻike hoʻi i ka waiwai o kekahi pōhaku i ʻokoʻa mai nā pōhaku ʻē aʻe ma mua o kona hoʻoholo naʻauao ʻana i ka pōhaku maikaʻi nona. ʻAʻole ia he mea kūpono ʻole ka manaʻo ʻana he waiwai ʻē aʻe ka pōhaku i kapa ʻia ʻo lode ma mua o ka waiwai o ke kālā. ʻAʻole maikaʻi kekahi mau pōhaku i loko o lākou iho, ʻo nā mea ʻē aʻe he ikaika a i ʻole nā ​​​​mea e hana ikaika ana ma o lākou. No laila, aia ka mana magnetism i loko o ia mea, akā ʻaʻole maikaʻi ka hao palupalu a ʻaʻohe ikaika e hana ma ia. ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻololi maikaʻi ʻia ka waiwai o nā pōhaku i ke kikowaena o nā ikaika; akā, hiki ke hoʻopiʻi ʻia nā pōhaku ʻino e nā kānaka a hana ʻia i mau kikowaena no nā mana e hana ai, e like me ke ʻano o ka hao palupalu e hiki ke hoʻopaneʻe ʻia e ka magnet a lilo i mea magnet. ʻO nā pōhaku e like me nā magnets, he mau kikowaena kahi e hana ai hoʻokahi a ʻoi aku paha nā mana i hoʻonohonoho ʻia e ke ʻano maoli a i hoʻopiʻi ʻia me ka ikaika a i hoʻopili ʻia me nā ikaika e nā kānaka. ʻO ka poʻe e ʻaʻahu ana i nā pōhaku he mau kikowaena ikaika paha, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻohuli i ko lākou ikaika ponoʻī, e like me ka uwila e huki ai i ka uila. Me ka ʻike ʻole o ia mau pōhaku a me ko lākou mau waiwai ponoʻī, ʻo ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e hoʻohana i nā pōhaku no kēia kumu e alakaʻi wale ai i ka huikau o ka manaʻo a me ka naʻaupō hoʻopunipuni. He ʻuʻuku ke kumu o ka hana ʻana me ka pōhaku a i ʻole kekahi mea ʻē aʻe no ka hana kilokilo, ke ʻike ʻole kekahi i nā kānāwai e pili ana i ka mea e hoʻohana ʻia ai a me ke ʻano o ke kanaka a i ʻole nā ​​​​ikaika e pili ana i ka mea e hoʻohana ʻia ai. ʻO ke ala maikaʻi loa e pili ana i nā mea i ʻike ʻole ʻia, ʻo ia ka mālama ʻana i ka maka a me ka noʻonoʻo a mākaukau e ʻae i kekahi mea i manaʻo ʻia he kūpono no ia mea, akā e hōʻole i ka loaʻa ʻana i kekahi mea ʻē aʻe.
