(Dedicated to You & to Yours as I aspire to simplify equality, encourage downtrodden ones, and enlighten All who wish to live as a unity; sharing love and peace in harmony. May All receive and share loving blessings of kindness and generosity!)
In the dawn of another day, solemnly standing upon the crest of a mountain; wondering what awaits in the forest below.... Searching for wisdom to endure; remembering paths I've strolled along. Alas! I shall continue to explore--
the depths of this wilderness, beyond its darkness, in awe of my curiosity to inspire.
Thus, a vision to All! We, the human race, are all a family of beings, residing on a planet called Earth; with this fact, and upon this foundation--
We stand on common ground.
May we live with a keen awareness
of humankind; appreciating individuality;
rather than dwell in a blinded existance
of racism and prejudice?
Let us, then, cast away the double-edged
sword of destruction!
And carry, upon our shoulders,
the cross of humble pride and dignity.
Come! Take my hand,
and walk with me
into another land--
There is no other place like this;
it's so hea-ven-ly!

My Daughter. You have always known that I love all your poetry and stories, but there comes a time when a father has to remind his children of important things taught us by our fathers. Red Nation is a return to true tradition of the Ancestors, making room for all that follow the Red Road in their heart and joining the family back together as in the past.
Native Nations adopted many into their tribes (family) accepted as a full blood member, never having the thought of slicing the blood amount into divisions as practiced today. Our feet are pointed to the east and the unification of the Cherokee Nation as well as all Native Nations; gathered together once again and all standing together as relatives.
This is the gathering of all Native People as legend the Elders passed down from the beginning and as directed by the Creator of all. Come walk this trail with me and join in the "Healing of The Native Nations" before all knowledge is passed away and no longer around as to who we are and what we are. Let us make the Ancestors proud that they gave their life so we may live and continue the River of Life.

Monika,
Bravo....shall it ever come soon? Such bias of soul that stampedes the earth this day, indeed, only words cast in light shall ever dispell such things to be certain! Again I state bravo!
