from SOUTH AFRICA: a woman's story

OUR STORY




“The deeper truths of our souls agitate us until we give them expression in our lives through art, our dress, customs, actions, rituals or our words. The animals we come from and connect with tease us with recollections of the agreements we made to come into this world. Those creatures comforted us away from our fears about coming alive in this plane of existence as we prepared to leave the comfort of timelessness for the birth canal of the mothers we chose. Knowing our challenge was to live above mere existence we took comfort in the relationship with the creatures who would accompany us, and teach and challenge us to be whole…” – Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories
