thank you for your comment on tuning in and making contact, because DNA is one part, and cuture is the other. Without the culture, what good would the DNA be, no?~c

ah, thank you for your comment. i have been writing a bit about the damage to la isla. it destroys our souls when we destroy the land. how are we to feel welcome in a place that we or others have destroyed??? i have never felt more at home than in the central mountains of PR camping, hiking, kayaking, meditating. it is where i have discovered you truly can be free.

it took a great deal of 'doing' so long ago to make that uncomfortable feeling in you and many many others today<br />
I know i do not have to give explanation of that to you, for we are both intimately familiar with that.<br />
i am amazed at how well it did NOT work<br />
are we not all here?<br />

call yourself what you will my dear, but it seems to me that the land that calls to your soul <u><b>IS</b></u> your home. though you may not be indigenous to trinidad, you certainly are her child. she knows it and so do you.<br />
would you call my cherokee son whom i have adopted, NOT my own? certainly not, for he drank from my breast the same as the others.<br />
when i call for my children he is sure to come.<br />
is it not the same for you?<br />
respectfully~c

There are a few ways...you can feel such a connection to a culture(yet I wonder why not one's own?-sometimes it's that one does not know-ao we have DNA tests,and we usually find at least 2 different races)You can feel such a connection to a culture,that you ADOPT it,or "They"adopt you-Native or African,or from India,Iberiapre-roman Iberian indigenous tradition-predominantly Celtic-"Celt-Iberian" it is known by-wherever you feel called.I suggest that you REALLY learn as much as you can about the…
There are a few ways...you can feel such a connection to a culture(yet I wonder why not one's own?-sometimes it's that one does not know-ao we have DNA tests,and we usually find at least 2 different races)You can feel such a connection to a culture,that you ADOPT it,or "They"adopt you-Native or African,or from India,Iberiapre-roman Iberian indigenous tradition-predominantly Celtic-"Celt-Iberian" it is known by-wherever you feel called.I suggest that you REALLY learn as much as you can about the cultures that you KNOW are part of your DNA FIRST!It's important in my belief that we please our ancestors-sometimes we have to help them make adjustments..to each other!-to our choices-but we need to TUNE-IN,to really try to make actual contact with them-"misas espirituales at home(I believe everyone should have an ancestor altar!,PUT ONE UP AND ATTEND TO IT!),or in community misas with a GOOD medium present.My aunt in possesion would blow the conch shell,as our Taino ancestors did-and I never knew what that gesture was till I got much older-"Oh,Taino!!!"It can be a long process,but you have to ENJOY IT!-it is full of surprises,good and not-so-good,wonderful and full of meaning, joyful,tears of joy,tears of longing-then of FINDING!,etc.,etc.To really find,one must really search!,right?
