Kimber, you have seen the light.......
The light that was meant for YOU to see.........
I am getting to the point to doing the "Talk to the hand" thing.......
If you want me to be okay with your belief, give me the same respect and be
okay with mine. If you cannot do that......then....
The Great Spirit calls us differently.......If you need to belong to a
religion or group than that is what you need, that is your light or calling.
I have been doing alot of thinking over the past few days.....Accepting who I
am more and more. Well, I should say who I am about to become or the person
that I have always been but was afraid to let out. I don't want to be
controlled my religion or doctrine. I want to be limitless. I want to walk
again with my native ancestors in my dreams. I often see myself setting among
and soaring throught the clouds.
There was a war here and I sometimes feel the hurt, pain, and anger of my
native people since moving to this place. I hope someday to have a vision
quest.
I still think of the dream about me being in a car and an eagle landed on my
left shoulder. He snuggled against my neck and I felt the warmth of his body.
I actually felt the warmth in my dream. He kept nuzzling his beak in my hair
until I said okay, okay... I get the message. He then went along his journey.

Kim
