The first one yeah it was shocking, I drove a chopstick into the eye and brain of a buffalo. It was going to trample me and my kids. It left me unsettled and so I let it go. Yet it sat in my mind.
This morning my husband tried to wake me up and before I truly woke up, the same buffalo came running across my vision.
Buffalo has caught my eye now, and now I will pay attention. Much like the snakes I had always dreamt of since I was a small child. I always feared them and they were EVERYWHERE always surrounding me, but they never bit me. I was always very scared of them.
I have been a lost one, a woman trying to find and belong to somebody who wished to include me truly as their own. I have been searching for a people who would claim me. I feel heritageless. I know it shouldn't matter in the highest of priorities of life. It doesn't override the daily love I receive.
Today is a day I need to remember that yes I belong to somebody, a family and a people.
