Hi everyone. We hope you're taking care of your spiritual, physical and mental health, wherever you are in the world.
This has been a sombre week with the news of the discovery of the bodies of 215 precious children on the grounds of a residential school in Canada.
Words cannot express the incredible pain those families must have felt for years, knowing nothing of the whereabouts of their babies.
To have the revelation come at this time, during all that the world is experiencing and with the multiple restrictions placed on gathering may be hard to celebrate.
There are clearly deep rooted wounds which have been reopened as a result of this discovery. As a country, Canada has a lot of healing to do.
As a people, the indigenous within North America have been taken advantage of, their customs and heritage derided, and their women and girls murdered, exploited and trafficked for far too long.
They have received too little in the way of Justice.
This is Generational Trauma to the highest degree!
For now, while all the "adults" work through what happens next, the world stops, holds it breath and collectively weeps over the loss of 215 precious, beautiful, innocent lives.
We make no distinction over ethnicity or nationality. These are OUR children and their lives mattered and still do.
