I remember when my son Brock went on a journey down the Fraser - TopicsExpress



          

I remember when my son Brock went on a journey down the Fraser River with some other youth through Kla-how-eya (Surrey, BC) and they paddled many many miles... When it was time to pull up to the shore each night - one of the youth would ask the Original people on shore if it was ok to come onto their territorial ground- they would always get permission first.... On the last day, when they came down the river I heard the sound of the paddles being banged on the bottom of the boat in rythmn... BOOM. BOOM. BOOM...my spirit was so awakened , so full of pride. I had a lump in my throat & I shed tears because I could feel those Ancestors... I was so overwhelmed with the sound and the vision of their ancestors doing this so many many years ago! It was so powerful. I have so much respect for our Ancestors across this land... :o)
