Thank you! 
I don't think many folks realize what Laniakea means 
Definitely apropos! quote:
PRONOUNCED: LA-nee-ə-KAY-ə (Hawaiian)
Meaning & History
The name Laniakea means "immeasurable heaven" in Hawaiian, from "lani" for 'heaven' and "akea" for 'spacious' or 'immeasurable'. Laniakea is the galaxy supercluster that is home to the Milky Way, the Solar System and Earth. It was defined in September 2014 by Nawa'a Napoleon, an associate professor of Hawaiian Language at Kapiolani Community College. The name honors Polynesian navigators who used heavenly knowledge to navigate the Pacific Ocean.

I've never been to Hawaii; but it does look beautiful.
I wrote a rather sad poem when I was a teenager about a man and his beloved named Leilani. IP: Logged |

It was about a man in the early 1800s, who was a boatswain on a merchant sailing ship. He had a fiance waiting for his return; and when she got word that his ship had sank in a storm; and no bodies were found; she jumped off a cliff into the stormy sea. He had washed up many miles away and was cared for by some people who nursed him back to health. It took a little more time for his memory to return. When he returned home; he was told that his fiance "Leilani" had committed suicide. In his grief he too jumped off the same cliff to join her in death. I was; I think; about 12 or 13 years old at the time I wrote it; after a rather intense and detailed dream.
There was a poem I wrote later about why he was on the ship one last time before he was going to marry Leilani and be a merchant shop owner on land. He had a son by a first wife who had died in childbirth.
While on the ship his 12 year old son was killed in an accident several hours before the storm that sank the ship.
So losing his wife, then his son; and thinking he'd lost Leilani too; yeah, he was seriously depressed. 
It would be about 1/2 a century ago that I wrote the poems..
I will post it/them if I can find it/them.IP: Logged |
