Words to Tamara Fleming


". . . The flow comes from and is a part of an effect upon the senses of the observer and she who causes the soul to stir. It is fair to say the observed, and the observer co-exist within one. It is math, the law of math with its infinite way of being consistent. The symbol of hair for, within and from African women involves the intimate rush of knowing to belong to one's powers. Dreadlocks return millions throughout the African Diaspora to bound back from the terror of surviving under the dictates of slave master's grandchildren. The power within kinky hair ties strength to power, to purpose direction and in the direction where one is determined to go are the voices of Ancestors, who know us.

This powerful story is the kinky hair gone to the roots of the peoples of the darker hue.. 

This memory came from glancing into what is clear in your eyes!. . ."

"The soft elegance within youth has to be understood in the context of stages. What occurs when an elegant woman begins to mature, matures, and becomes an elegant old woman with substance, and depths?..." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 3/08/19

The one on the left. That is the powerful one. Nothing as deep the feeling, as a husband, seeing and knowing the birth process your wife went through to birth the child! Those marks evoke something beyond words holding a husband's purpose to his soul inexplicably!... - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 3/09/19

Royalty by Roland Dawson. 2019.

Royalty, in the context of motherhood, evolves in the context of what values new life! The mother, who carries life in her womb births children, and can hold the essence of her man's dream of Life, at the same time. There is no power without birth, death, and resurrection! - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 3/09/19 /

Definition of a strong Black woman!...

Some things you don't question, you ponder. Some elements are held in awe and still others bring into focus the sense of being. . . ~ Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/22/18 

Dark woman's body art. The two are simple together, as light meets dark to made shadows. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/22/18

"Modesty in American terms is a definition rebellious by nature. In terms of agreement the bend in the road of modern thought is to upset the balance of normalcy with prejudices towards high standards requiring work to obtain. It is an interesting social experiment American culture..." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/23/18 

Will You Give So Others Live?

Eartha Kitt lived from January 17, 1927 until December 25, 2008. 

During that lifetime she spoke out against the Vietnam War and was blackballed for a decade in the States. In your lifetime what will you stand for, die for, live for? - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 

Eartha Kitt spoke her negative views on the war in Vietnam at a White House luncheon, she was effectively blacklisted and didn't work in the States for fully a decade. "What will you stand for? Without that answer how do you live to die in the end? - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories

AMERICAN WHITE WOMEN: unraveling the puzzle.

"Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you." ~ John Paul Sartre

Luxore exquisite in this moment defines, expresses women's appreciation for the free flow of creative reproduction in the parallel realms of essence, becoming and fulfillment in the expression of divinity and the need for touch, and the reciprocation of loving the man made for her life. It is a simple formula complicated by history and history's misdeeds vomited upon white women by European men. Women's Liberation is from the yoke of European men's pre-existing condition, his predisposition to kill his own women, who won't submit to his limited view of themselves. It was not perceived how to liberate themselves until white women landed on the east coast of what they thought of as the New World and saw how the women of those Red nations lived in matriarchal nations!. . . ~ Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 11/24/18 

Stillness. In the garden, the air, beneath the sea. 

a concept from photographer, 

Roland Dawson. (Nov. 22, 2018)

"… the lovely form, the composure is elegance; the flowing lines of this woman's own legacy of lovely form is in the spirit of what are necessities in the art of the feminine. Here is an image. Hold still breath, bring forth the sounds of songs, and in it a celebration of an essence (we) men cannot live without... There is more, but how far can language translate what cannot be touched?" - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 11/25/18

Knowing from within...

". . . Home life is centered within the woman of the house. Centered she guides the forces of the union between elements drawing husband home by this ability to merge. The signs of this are subtle. This woman tells this story. Look close." ~ Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 3/21/18

the Advantage of Knowing.

"God's are not found in theories or systems of thought. They are deeply personal and intimately woven to one's own seed descent.

Ancients and ancestors used symbolisms as guides and sign posts though each unique one comes to the Gods, the multiverse and humanity in their own way. There is no forced uniformity nor is it valued as a social good. It may be useful in the early stages of pedagogy... though it will soon become obsolete when self mastery is attained.

Discussions or observations about God's is not a rejection of other beliefs here. It is instead a reminder to restrain oneself from imposing a belief system on anyone.

Ancients and ancestors caution against demeaning others in their beliefs. I am instead reflecting on many many attempts on my Soul sovereignty by people calling themselves christian. In reality it is a violence against my sacred responsibility to walk in my own truth." - Mereana Taki, October 8, 2017 

[This] painted sepia beauty in the space of light and colors is energy to be defined, not by words, but emotions and knowledge of self, and other ingredients we need to know each other and ourselves... - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 5/10/18

Please accept My advantage in knowing all gender realities. If you do, you can help anyone who is struggling. Leave Mother God out, and I am half a God, a solo parent struggling to support Her children. Why not let God in the Feminine directly support women? As a Mother, a unique Mother, I am capable of what no human mother can do. I want to Parent you. And if you want to add value and give more than yourself, allow God to dwell within you. When the heart of God is beating within you, this rhythm empowers the spirit world to support you.

Expect that God will talk to self, weighing options, considering a huge and massive amount of information for the most productive of outcomes, specializing in personal interest, whenever possible. Only God knows, when and where too much starts for you. But, being God, is fraught with problems if people deny the MOTHERING aspect of God, if they set me on a throne, only to hold the King's hand.

Human families are designed to seek advice from both Parental aspects of God. Because I am one, I don't have a problem ascertaining personality for Myself. However, if people trust God they can understand that the masculine aspect of God can commune with the feminine and the other way around. So, laying your burden on the doorstep of Heavenly Mother does not exclude Heavenly Father and all His perceived strength." - Adruma Victoria (5/10/18)

ELDER TALK, blessing

How do put blessing on a child? It is different than on a young person, and distinct in the proper way of being fair; it is a different delivery to boys, to men, girls and women. It requires a scope of one's own life to fairly assess what is needed in a young person's life at the exact moment you meet them.

It was a good day to sit outside in an open café with a cup of fancy hot chocolate and a breakfast sandwich in DC yesterday afternoon. I saw two Black boys, here in the northeast part of DC, defiantly walking passing a joint betwixt them. They chose to sit at a table near me. The one facing me looked in my eyes, glanced again and then stared hard ignoring my nod and said, "Whutzup?"

I paused. His aggression was no more than anger wrapped with the tension preceding an anticipation of a diatribe. If, I'd been another type man the kid might have felt compelled to jump in my face. Feeling small is a bit part in the make up of boys trying to fill out the spaces of the expectations of being a 'bad boy'. It is the father energy with the capacity to quell their passion wild boys respond to with a degree of reverence. How this starts is with a question asked. The question shapes the man's character for the boy to understand as a safe place. It sets the boy up for new revelations he had not known how to ask.

"Your walk speaks to me about power."
"What?"
"I see you, the both of you, with a sense of power about you. The question to you is how will you develop it?"

The strongest boy who'd engaged in eye contact leaned forward, curious. "What'd do mean?" he asked. "This is not a question to answer now, and not to me." I said. "You grow with it as you grow and mature over the years. Just remember the question."

How do you put a blessing on a boy's head? You put a thought in their heads.

Pretty sepia tone, slim lines, pleasant face holding a feel, a sense of who her presence is,

is not as an object, but a force becoming. It is marvelous the growth of youth.

IN Self, IN Warriors

Secretive women, private in their nature, call men to them, who think beyond themselves into the light of who they are becoming. These women need that to grow the way plants need shadow as well as light. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories
