Our mother earth gives us all life, nurtures our body within our skin and protects us as we grow, from the deep seed in the earth to a branch of life, she moulds our growth to stay strong throughout our life journey, and at times a leaf may fall; our fathers represent the wings of an eagle, the inner strength identical to the line of the feathers; united in their bloodline is the backbone of our strength and our life, we all have our own paths, and our depth of culture and knowledge is our way of life, that is entrenched beyond the land, the whispers of the wind creates a misty ripple for our spiritual connection and swirls deep within our soul, from the lakes and water holes to the land across sea; aligning a creation of life which stems from our ancestors keeping us connected to our identity and warrior of hope. We all survive in different ways and our resilience keeps us grounded to country, so as we leave our footprints on sacred land, our spirit protects us holistically, to keep us standing and to keep us deep in strength; heart, mind, and spirit forever in our life journeys from the footprints in the sand to the dust we leave behind.
