Wow...
not sure if I can help answer your question, since I'm so full of them myself.
the only thing I know to say is the there are some of us out here, that do have Native American blood running thru our veins as well.
Some are lucky enough to know where it came from. (Cherokee here, all maternal side. 1/8.)
May not mean much to anyone else, but I feel it inside as well as any other full blood, it's there, and I cherish it, and feel pride in just the knowing.
But the biggest thing about being, out here, alone, is the not knowing of things that seem to speak to my soul, and not know what to do with it, or where to look for answer's, since there's no one here that knows.
Of course, that's not gonna stop me from trying to find out...
I do have enough sense to know that there are things that are sacred, and would never even consider taking upon myself the mantle of doing them, unless properly trained.
but something tells me, that's gonna be a long time coming, as things are now...
Let your people know that there are those of us out here, that do feel and hear the call, but we're basically stranded, and waiting respectfully.
and they do not stand alone in the feeling of being cheated somehow, some way by our forefather's decisions, and actions. What took place, in the past, was terribly uncalled for, and eventually the desert will come into full bloom!
and if there was a line drawn... well, Flora would step into the desert, if it would have her.
