This blog is to enlighten,transform & Inform ; take you on a journey of many levels into the soul, heart & spirit.......my writings reflect who I am, mind, heart & soul, where I'm going,where;I've been,the wisdom accquired by my experiences! My art work reflects feelings that go beyond words can express, photography lets you see what I see, but with the heart & soul;"the eyes ARE the Window to the SOUL."
So many people are ashamed to state their heritage,my Grandmother was afraid to admit and acknowledge her Native American culture and heritage, they were treated badly in her day, but I am proud to be a part of her and her culture and heritage, it is who we are! I applaud you in speaking out on behalf of all those mixed heritage and cultures, I too am of Native American, French, Spanish and German, being I am from Louisiana. I agree with you that many wrongs in the past of our history have created a lot of hurt on many of mixed heritage and cultures, I am a product of a mixed heritage but I embrace my heritage with pride but also cry over the injustice of one people on another. Last I read in the Bible, God created us all, all the peoples of the world, red, yellow, black and white we are created equaly as God's children. He created us, from the clay of the earth, the way I see it, there are many different colors of clay in this world, so that means we are ALL EQUAL in God's eyes, but it is in man's eyes that we tend to see others, skin first, one day people will start to see each other in God's eyes; which means we need to see peoples hearts first, actions second and see the goodness of one's soul at all times! The worst thing people have used wrongly is their power over others, nations using their power over other nations and evil people taking advantage of the meek and humble people of this world. As anyone reading this can tell that I, by no way see skin color, I only see the heart first, and your heart is a good, gentle and wise one! We have so much in common, I too will not make excuses for all the wrongs done through history because ALL heritages and cultures have in their history created wrongs that have hurt others in their need for power over each other! Greed is the other sin man has used to hurt their fellow mankind. When we all become color blind, (see with the heart)is when things might change, when everyone has the same rights; when we are equal in each other's eyes and in the eyes of our governments of the world, THEN maybe this world will be on the road to listening with our hearts, not our ears, see with our hearts, not our eyes and except with the goodness of heart and soul,other people's difference, not the flesh or color of the skin, heritage,cultures, religions,or govenments or ones political ediology. When we see the color of one's soul, we see the true person, the true heart; because we are not just flesh and blood but we are spirit also! By spirit I mean heart and soul, and your's is a true heart and a gentle soul, keep speaking up, some day people will wake up, learn to correct the past and learn from it, and hopefully not make the same mistakes........
