Lia's Story
No joke folks. I am Lia Maiava (Saole) who graduated from OHS in 1969. I traveled very little but Oceanside remains home for me. I've lived outside of Oceanside for brief periods, but always within driving distance.
Married and have two children (girls). Not a grandma yet, but I am a great-great-great Aunt, so I must be up in years (lol).
I retired 3-4 years ago, and am enjoying the freeedom of choice in my days...sometimes I have no choice with as much family aware of my retirement, but I enjoy it nonetheless.
You see, I am still the same person at heart and that's not about to change. If you knew me, you know what I mean.
I do some writing and am considering publication in the near future. I love family, my friends and love living the life the Lord has orchestrated for me. Much of that reflects in my writing, but I also share a burden for others that have traveled this life's journey alongside me, and very blessed by all my sojourners in this life. My husband has gone on to be with Lord eight years ago, but his spirit lives on through our children and those we love. He remains alive in my heart, and a very present factor in who I am today, and the everpresent circle of love that surrounds me daily.

tain them through trials of life, and know that whatever challenges they face, they are never alone. I have my days of woes, but it never lasts. I chose not to park there, so my life is constantly flowing with challenges and dreams unfolding. I am happy and I remain my own person. I am challenged everyday by people and circumstances, but I remain true to my life sustaining faith in the Lord and strive to be His best in all things good to His glory. No I am not a preacher, and I am not a religious fanatic. I just like to keep things real, and I really truly know where life matters most, and how I will live mine here and now, until He calls me back home to the heavens above. After all, this is not my home, and my life is not my own. My life is a symphony of treasures and orchestated wonders in time. Nothing more to say...just lots more exploring to do until then. Go out and live life...be happy and treasure the moments in time to share the light and life in you with someone else whose light is growing dim. For me, sometimes it's just a smile and a kind greeting or praise; perhaps a handshake or even a hug. Can't buy happiness, for it's the joy in giving that comes alive spontaneously when you just act on it!!! Blessings to all my friends out there!!
