hey Wild- this really does bring home some strong feelings, otherwise I would not favourite this. I recently had some confirmation through a number of sources of some strong indiginous links in the family heritage (of course dened by the “old folks” who are appalled by this) – something that I have felt for quite a while – indiginous people have a certain feeling to the earth, not found in our “commercialised” existence by many these days. – Still – this is your work, and its wonderful
Wildwings replied
Well said! Isn’t life fascinating? Sometimes we find out things about ourselves that really surprises us. Yes, indigenous people do have a great respect for Mother Earth as she is their provider most of the time. Nature is to be respected fully. Only take what you can use and no more. I appreciate the kind words on my work. Thank you.
