Sound is interpreted as an audible activity. It may be, and is just that, but the silence of movement is captured here. The young woman, Svetland, without clothes, feels all of life's elements: fire, water, air and Earth, our Mother, in the element of sound, touch and movement within stillness. There is a dance here. . . - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 10/5/18

Riddle: descent or right?

Wife of Art Warda, Kristin Warda shows her breasts off.

"Why?" is a question to ask, and "how?" they allowed her

sharing this picture is a compelling subject. 

Married couples allow each other to do things another couple may not allow. In some marriages, it keeps their integrity in order in ways indistinguishable from what another may call a sin. There are couples where the husband allows his wife to display her body for an online audience. "Why?" is a question to ask, and "how?" they allowed her sharing in this way is a compelling subject.

It is important for young inexperienced couples to learn how to wade through the complex waters of freedom of expression. The way Westerners view sex and marriage has crossed many lines indigenous peoples have learned to establish balance in Life. Western cultures have learned to disrespect many moral standards from a perspective foreign to decency, and in the momentum of that long ago decision; we in their future lay claim to freedom of expression with and without decency, or moral standards worth anything! It is a moral dilemma these days deciding what is right and what is wrong. How, Native people and those of us throughout the African Diaspora resolve these contradictions is determined by our relationship with our Ancestors, and our knowledge of what is right and what is wrong in the equation of balance and right relationship. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 4/10/18 

3 Looks at a Woman, by a man...

 A young man likes to look at women. We all do. It is normal. What he should judge is himself. There are three ways to look at women, and upon closer inspection more come to light upon the area we reason with, and new discoveries are made we need to judge about ourselves. When you are young older men need to fill in the blanks, and there are a lot of blanks! Silence, or fear of asking for assistance is normal, and expected, if surrounded by men, who are but a semblance of a man bereft of good counsel to hold onto.

It is the real men, deep in the study of their manhood, embraced by a humanity balancing the light and the dark, the strength and the weakness of character and balancing the two primary energies: female and male! This basic structure of humanity is fundamental to masculinity and the subsequent arousal initiation plunges immaturity into the processes of becoming a man in the deepest sense of the word.

Jenya in a special posture speaks to 'Within' as if one is made to be holy, be misunderstood, and felt!. . . It is an insight women bring to the 3rd eye of a man simmering with desire for a woman! - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 1/16/18

Jenya. Perfection is an illusion we believe within. The body is another perfection we strive for, but in the context of a man looking at a woman, we have our ideals, and they are perfect, to us. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 1/16/18

Contemplation in a woman like Jenya seated here stirs arousal into a nest. One has to feed what needs feeding, and one has to feed one's inclinations, but with wisdom one has to have a better grasp upon reality. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 1/16/18

Sexual powers=Spiritual powers

"Open for working things out. A woman's punany should be approached the same way one approaches holy things. Whore or not each woman deserves that moment. Her comprehension of this is her perspective!" - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 11/13/17

a full story.

Full breasts hang heavy. It is good to know how they feel head to breasts, heart to heart, hand to breasts. From a son to a man the breasts should be sacred, as well as comforting. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 9/2/17

the Holy is Missing.

Julie Ann at home on the second landing

Julie Ann, provocative as she is, establishes the fact of the specialness of her soul by the definition of her punany. Connections to her heart from the vagina is the language of a woman's holiness. It can be this way. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories

Not Seen.

Black woman naked to the eye has been everything except perceived

as Goddess for too many centuries. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories

Story Told to your Spirit

This full bodied woman speaks in essence of strength, holy secrets, the propensity towards the coarse or the purity of spirit. The body is a song. This is a riddle. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 8.22.16

Asian woman whose poise, beauty and sensuality closes the gap between what is dreamt and what is possible into an impossibility, if doubt enters the equation of assumption. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 8.22.16

Dark Woman, Pregnant Fine

pregnancy of hers has no words to convey the beauty, the warmth, the comfort of knowing deep things father and child will never know, only sense. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories

"Pregnant Black woman's gentleness ceases and

begins a struggle between Life and Death. . ."

- Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories

"I am always astounded because I am in awe at the splendor of the way pregnant women of the darker hue expand the idea the Ancients left in them! There are other things that birth during the days of the carrying a child, but the beauty is the splendor, the holiness is the essence without words. May you breath and birth when it is time for the child to come forth!" - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 4/22/17

On January 6, 2013 · 

  she said to her public, "Enjoy your holy Sunday everyone!. Smilessss."

Seduced by Lola Taylor

You speak of enjoying your holy Sunday to your admirers in what seems to be a flippant manner. Maybe it was, but with but a peek it is easy to see it was more. Between the power of the way you dressed yourself in red and propped a leg with a dare you positioned yourself and posed a question to men, and the desire you aroused in them into the spectrum of sensuality. You opened for the receptive ones self-examination through sexual powers in an ancient way you may or may not be aware of.

O, My God!

The battle of good and evil continues... 

Good: Everywhere I AM, Good is with me. 

Evil: Everywhere I AM, Evil is with me, so when you meet me, who wins? 

Good: Good always conquers evil. Evil: Evil always conquers

Good, hence there are no Good people left. 

Good: I AM Good. I AM here. I even see the Good in you. You are not evil. 

 Evil: You are not good. I'll show you...I exist and when I am finished, there will be nothing left of you. 

Good: I'll show you and we shall see that we are both a part of me, able to live in unity.

Holy of Holiness by Kat Adisson

SANZIENE, a Romanian holy day

Every year, on 24th of June,

Romanians celebrate the holiday of Sanziene.

"The legend says that in long lost times, the Sanziene used to be priestesses of the Sun, but as their believes are lost in the mists of time, today they are considered beneficial fairies of extreme beauty. Some specialists say that the Sanziene celebration is a Geto-Dacian celebration of the Sun, millenniums old. In the night of 23-24th June, the Sanziene, who live in forests and plains, come out of their hiding places and dance the night away in circles. Where the Sanziene dance, the plants grow healthier and stronger, filled with healing properties." - RiseRa Light

EXCEPTION TO THE RULE: Rene D. Batts-Fouts

Rene D. Batts-Fouts
on July 13, 2009 

"Reni, your sense of joy and the intelligent depth of it has been worth the thought I put into applying it into my consciousness over the years. It is still evident in you." - Gregory E. Woods (5/4/10)

Rene Fouts, when we were young men, was the standard of the high values we believed women possessed who would  be good companions in life.  In our small Bible study groups it would not be uncommon for someone to use Rene as the image to hold in one's mind when discussing or contemplating the 31st chapter of the Book of Proverbs.

TEEPEE

The Teepee

Values help guide behavior through the process of growing up, changing and handling responsibilities. Personal values are what determine a person’s decisions and actions. Social values are set by cultural beliefs as to what is important for a community. There are fifteen traditional Cree cultural values that serve as a guide for happy and healthy living. Each value is honored in the construction of a teepee, which requires 15 poles — with each pole symbolizing one value:


1. Obedience – accepting guidance and wisdom from others


2. Respect – for self and others


3. Humility –knowing that we are not above or below others in the circle of life


4. Happiness – showing enthusiasm to encourage others


5. Love – love of self and love of others, not things


6. Faith – belief in the spirit world


7. Kinship – relationships and bonds with parents, siblings, extended relatives, knowing one’s home community


8.Cleanliness – spiritual cleanliness


9. Thankfulness – gratitude for life and for family


10. Sharing – sharing knowledge, stories, traditions, for future generations


11. Strength – spiritual strength to do things that are difficult


12. Good Child Rearing – guidance and protection of the sacred gift of children


13. Hope – hope that the women who are the life givers and the nurturers will carry on the teachings to bring healthy spirited people into the world


14.Ultimate Protection – protection of the minds, spirit, emotions and health of the youth


15.Control flaps from winds – balance in life’s journey

 

These are the sacred values that sustain the Cree spiritually, physically, emotionally and mentally. The first three are considered the foundation of the teepee because a teepee will not stand upright with only two poles, a minimum of three are needed - just as you need a child and two parents to make a family.



A ceremony is followed when erecting a teepee with tobacco given to Mother Earth by a woman in thanks for the use of all the materials to make the teepee, and the doorway facing east. The teepee is symbolic of the sacredness of womanhood as it stands with dignity; it provides warmth, comfort and shelter, and love and care to the family. With the control flaps up, the teepee resembles an old woman standing with her arms extended out in thanks. Women are named after the fire that is built in the centre of the teepee.


The control flaps are used to control the release of smoke and insects from the fire. When they are positioned properly, all smoke and insects flow out through the opening at the top of the teepee. So these flaps represent balance in life’s journey.

love & development

"Although people speak of becoming holy and noble everything good comes down to the achievement of true love. Once that happens all the problems of the world are solved. Can this be more important than worship and religion? Ask God."
