Prayer.
This expression of the human in most Indigenous societies is essential for a 'good life.'
Via American social trends and cultural 'norms', prayer has become absent in the lives of most people, including the 21st century Indigenous person. For the Dine' person "sodizin" is the expression of thankfulness and happiness and balance for our lives.
The state of prayer in the lives of southwestern tribal individuals is how many of us keep our daily senses. Creator has given us the ability to pray as a means of 'humbling' ourselves. We must NOT forget this essential part of our culture Indigenous people! Decolonize your mind, your ways from non-Indigenous pop culture. We are a complex mix of unique and sacred beings, don't homogenize yourself.
Be Indigenous!
Be Matriarch!
Be and do prayer.
Blessings All Around you.
