Hello! Here a little introduction of me. AnnieLL already knows a little about me, for I first joined her other site. And via that site I came to this amazing site, but dared not to join, because of the great work and love put into this site...and because I'm not an American Native. My brother is thought. He is born in Columbia, South America and he has 3/4 indian blood and the rest spanish. I am born in Austria and we both were adopted by people from the Netherlands, Holland.
I still live here, but when I got the chance...I'm out of here. hihihihi.
For the last few weeks I got into the native believes again. It started...as usual with Quetzalquatl. And a very stupid thing too, because in a game I was playing there was a beast a hunter could catch and make it his companion. I found a lovely wind serpent and called it Quetzalquatl for I love this Godlike type. It is the only God that was worshiped without human sacrifice and bloodoffers. After that I researched internet again and again and again and some books I have and then I found a site were AnnieLL had a link to this site. I jumped to it and got really excited...and also sad of some stories. Like the one of a chief who wants to introduce his grandchild to the blessings and spiritguides of the wolf and learn him the ways of the wolfs...but the child seemed not to be interested. Believe it or not, but I almost cried and got a little angry with this child. For I know that times change, people change and because of the influences of now a days western, economical and almost demonical society, I could not stand this child to prefere a tv programm above the wolf.
Well...I'm with my brother like twin. We can't do without eachother. Sometimes when we are too long near eachother, we go angry and fight our differences. For in our childhood till now we shared everything. Our pains, our love, our happiness and our sadness. We both had to run a way from home at a very early age, for our parent got strange and were ways too demanding. We had to serve like slaves their guests and I had to entertain them with the music I played on the piano. Now I write this a big smile comes to my face for I always played as a rebellion thing, el condor passa and some other songs I know...to fly away from the scene (in my mind). But when times went soo bad, my brother and I ran away. The first time we were about 11 years old. After that our lives became worse and had a lot of strugles. With our selves, my brother with his Columbian background, the teases for his skincollor and me because I came from a country were a nazileader was born. We had a hard knock live time back then. Now a days we still fight for our lives and I still find my peace in the flute, the piano, the singing and the drums. A friend called me times ago I was a herb doctor. A kind of a shaman. For I don't know myself what I am, but I'm here and to help and understand, to teach and to learn and I do not care in what name or proffession that would be. I believe in all and nothing. I believe that everyone who walkes this earth has his truth and this truth is real. Maybe not always for me, but I respect that truth. I don't have a religion, nor do I practice witchcraft or anything...well, at least...I combine it all in my monthly rituals, but only when it is nescessary. I'm a loner. so I don't have any counsels. Nor a family to feel free to talk about this. Only my brother and three best friends. It sounds, a bit sad, but I'm the most happy and greatfull person in the world I think. Exception for the hayfever I experience every summer. And its bad. A gift I got with my comming here to the earth. Well...it keeps me inside the whole summer...but my spiritual gifts are the hayfevers balance. hihihihi.
Wow, its becoming a long story ehehehe.
May you all be blessed with the sun and the moon. The four winds and with the water, the fire, the earth and the air and the ether. May you be blessed with the knowledge and strenght and love of the Ancestors and spiritguides. May the animals be your guides in good and difficult times. May the path be red and without obsticals.
May Great spirit live and work in you all and I wish this and many more for you.
And many thanks that I can join this group!
A milion hugs from here until the moon and back,
Niels.
