Connections
I've been away for a time and the time has been spent researching and making new discoveries.
New people have been added to my family tree and some old dead ends found their new life within the "new" connections that have been made.
The family connections weave in and out of one another and sometimes go round about the world only to return to thier home in the end.
Our ancestors were all restless people moving to and fro about their world making new discoveries and in some instances making some very old "rediscoveries." You see, they too were making new connections in a very old world. But back then, that old world was very "new" to them.
The longer I live the more I come to realize that this planet is a very hostile place.
One has to play a survival game that is very harsh and at times it seems very cruel.
Oft times In the end, it seems that only the fittest live on to survive. But that is often not the truth.
There are two types of people living upon this planet.
The Creators
and the Destroyers.
The Creators work hard learning the ways of the land and adjusting their attitudes to come in line
with nature. They have studied her ways to perfection and have been shown her innermost secrets.
Its all about flowing with the current of the thing we call life. Great civilizations have been built on that
great principle. Flowing.
The other people, the Destroyers, seem to live for war. Their mentality tells me "ant."
These "ant" people always play the same game. Everyone is their enemy. Skin colors also bother them a lot because they have a lot of racial phobias. Their line of thought is very limited because their thinking
is structured much like a pyramid. Wide at the bottom and very narrow at the top of it all.
Their societies are shaped very much in the same way.
The Destroyers are very war like and they always have to subjugate their "enemies."
In the end a lot of lives are always lost.
Its strange because a lot of us in the know have come to realize that the Destroyers are suffering from
a strange mental illness, its called psychotic behaviour.
Yet, in the end these Destroyers get immortalized by their societies and even the descendants of those who were conquered and it seems that psychotic behaviour has become the norm.
Yes, I've learned a lot from studying my ancestors.....
You should too.

Very good words Brother
If we try to look at things from a Native Perspective more understanding comes to play.
I will search my own soul to see the Creator and Destroyer in me.
