Greetings, my relative. In the circle of life, we each walk our path, carrying the stories and dreams of our ancestors, guided by the wisdom of the earth and the stars. Today, I extend my hand to you, not just as an individual on a journey but as a member of a greater circle, a community of resilience, strength, and healing.My spirit is guided by a sacred mission, a calling that resonates with the heartbeat of our Mother Earth. This mission is rooted in the powerful forces of empowerment: recovery, education, employment, culture, and life skills. These are not just pillars of my purpose; they are the directions on the medicine wheel, guiding our steps toward healing, understanding, and thriving.Substance Use Recovery: Like the phoenix rising, we embrace the fire of transformation. Recovery is more than a path away from substance use; it is a journey towards rediscovering our inner strength, the power of our spirit, untamed and untouched by external forces.Education: Knowledge is the light that guides us through the darkness. It is not just the learning from books but also the wisdom passed down through generations, the stories of our ancestors, and the lessons of the land.Employment: To work is to contribute to the circle of life, to find our role in the community, and to serve with the gifts we've been given. Employment is not just a means to an end but a way to express our purpose and to honour the gifts bestowed upon us by the Creator.Culture: Our culture is the root of our identity—the song of our ancestors that still echoes in our hearts. It is in the drumbeat, the dance, the sacred ceremonies, and the quiet whispers of the forest. Our culture is our strength, our guide, and our connection to all that has been and all that will be.Life Skills: The journey of life demands skills not taught but learned through the living. These are the abilities to navigate the storms, to stand firm in the face of adversity, and to walk with integrity, respect, and love for all our relationships.This is why I do what I do. This mission is not just a path I walk; it is a call to all who hear the whisper of their ancestors in the wind, to all who feel the strength of their spirit yearning for a life of purpose, connection, and healing.Do you, too, feel this calling? Let us walk this path together as a community of warriors, healers, and teachers. Join our circle of recovery warriors, and together, let us journey towards healing and empowerment.
