Who We Are Becoming Matters
The courage, wisdom, and aloha we need in a time/place of collapse
Book •
Who We Are Becoming Matters is a compact, hybrid book by Norma Kaweloku Wong that blends story, poetry, and practical instruction to help readers cultivate courage, discipline, and a deep sense of aloha amid societal collapse.
Drawing on her practice as a Zen teacher and Indigenous Hawaiian leader, Wong offers models (like the hand-clasp), the concept of a human quotient, and reflections on discipline and mutual care to support grounded action.
The book emphasizes conscious becoming—choosing how to grow in ways that sustain communities and the land—rather than reactive or self-destructive responses to crisis.
It centers mutuality, tending, and the spiritual habit of aloha as both ethical orientation and practical practice for resilience.
Practical exercises, poems, and short essays make the work accessible for individuals and groups seeking embodied, relational strategies for survival and transformation.
