A major form of Aloha is generosity. This is a trait majority of Hawaiians are known for. In more modern times this generosity has been tested by land disputes, rises in the costs of living, and sovereignty issues dealing with Native Hawaiian rights and recognition. Like I said, it's been tested, but Hawaiians everywhere will never change. This uncanny, irresistible urge to share everything we have is a visceral trait that congenitally exist because we exist. A bumper sticker can be seen on Hawaii's streets and roads that says, "No Hawaiians, No Aloha." Simply put, generosity in Hawaii continues to exist because Hawaiians are here keeping it alive each and everyday. Don't believe? Come to Hawaii and see for yourself.
Hawaiians will more than likely treat you to lunch, help you to move, and even take you in if you have no place to stay.
