COURAGE TO CHANGE CYCLES

"For a group of people who claimed that, they are highly intelligent due to their innovations, discoveries and philosophy its Ironic, the same group of people are working tirelessly in their attempt to destroy this world.. The water ways are no longer safe, the food that are being produced are laced with chemicals, which can result in severe health problems.. The quest to conquer global resources has become the policy to maintain, by any means necessary (wars, rape and disfranchisement of indigenous people).. I am optimistic that, these vampires are going to drive themselves right the cliff off extinction, in order for mother earth and her children to breath, eat and live in peaceful harmony with nature..." - Pitit Neg Ahier

SOUL SICKNESS (USA)

Sadly, Pitit Neg Ahier, you are right. My citizenship in the US is riddled with contradictions. I feel every word of your diatribe. As an African-Absaroka & Muskogee Indian man, I am bound, shaped and from Turtle Island, but our precious ancestral lands are discerned by perception, and by those who know the histories, and hear the red ancestors. All anyone else sees is the corporation, and the Federal government, and dynamic culture of American citizens.

It is a difficult place to be a Healer, and a facilitator living in the center of the Beast, but in that place healing and reconciliation begins. All spiritual work begins within before going out. All change comes from within. Outside agitation stimulates growth within the body of pain, and contradictions. The voices of the soul, at the base of one's creativity, one's drive to live recognizes the elements of Death invited by life choices. Those voices speak of rivers, the living waters.

A country is the soul of a People, and soul sickness ails Americans. The white man told his story of contempt of the world through the stories he created around the waters that broke in his woman's womb. He spoke of the rivers and saw her blood and found it void of what acquisition needed. His paradoxes kill the world as surely as his fear of and actions against the essence of the Female, the Womb, the Waters, and the Air, and the Earth, our Mother kill the woman.

Indigenous peoples, the world over, have been trampled by the fears of the white people, and now imbued with powers the healers and teachers of the conquered tribes are the conduits of healing the lives and hearts of whites, and restoring balance to the minds of our relatives, our white people. These are my words. AHO! – Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12.21.12
