diary friday 4/2 5:30 pm tselani-cottonwood central navajo nation

sitting in the hooghan nimazi writing in the calm…the wind is present with its rhythmic harmonics, finding way through the smallest of the openings – exiting as sweet songs …the fire is audible too! the cracking of the ambers is soothing – and well, sitting on the dirt floor is simple + healing…

Ceremony by Joy Harjo (thank you Ann Marie!!!)

“when considering ceremony the act of preparation is most crucial…each day is a ceremonial progression in which every human take part. We do so either consciously or unconsciously. You can prepare by setting the alarm clock and jumping into the world with anxiety, or you can still set the alarm clock – but take time to prepare for the day, by singing, by prayer, by a small acknowledgement of the gift of the day itself..”
