LoveLOVELOVE

I am at a phase of bringing many aspects of my life together in a focused way,
bringing forth the actions, opportunities and experience that is in my best interest for the journeys i am working on, and beautiful sharing of videos that offer inspirational understanding.....

forward thinking of sharing videos online,
and performing concert videos/music..I TRULY LOVE CREATING/LISTENING/ENERGIZING AMONG MUSIC!! the whole flow that reigns through you!, feeling the beat, and moving with the flow of it..... watching artistic videos and installations, allow yourself to be taken away, free your mind and journey the experience...listen with your essence.....of how you are when you are among events that bring people together. sporting events, concerts, heritage festivals,....
'Spirit of United' with hearts that contribute to the flame.....what does your passion and dream contribute? what is your remembered heritage and culture celebrated? what is your legacy to the lives of others?.....
being a friend, being fulfilled in work, family and happiness

dec. 18th,
wozers! time keeps flying,...

as for life/purposefulness...
i am heading for miss universe. i love this opportunity, to feel inspired, working towards a goal with motivation to learn, grow, achieve and share
(such as whitefeather performance for aids/africa/fifa)
a country’s health, education and communication systems and infrastructures must be sufficiently developed. In some African countries these systems are already under strain and are at risk of collapsing as a result of AIDS. Money can also only be used efficiently if there are sufficient human resources available, but there is an acute shortage of trained personnel in many parts of Africa.
heading home for holidays.. at this point, i am just wondering whether to try and throw an event still!


dec. 12th,2009
nearing the end of this phase,...

READY FOR ANYTHING, now, here as we go

it all starts
multivideo!
pick up cd disc/ move in

FLY FLY FLY, AND BE BE BE AS WE WE WE EXPLORE OUR JOURNEY

dec.5

so here i am,
'music a priviledge', and so things really rang true for me,...

so here i am, the day i would have taken kaleidescope. but i guess the way i was feeling is, i dont want to be in a classroom with my mind wandering of where else i could be.
other options came up, grand opportunities of 'no worries' to manage,....so here i am about to hop on the train of wonderment of, 'lets see where were taken', and by goodness, 'let us enjoy the journey'.

Thank you, as we endure and live joyously, our life endeavors, upon us, allways with us, in Love & grace.

dec. 4
Darling angel,
here we are,
amidst wildness of dreams,
and directions flow
in which all that has at once seemed,
of heading and know
can be overcome
and surprise me, so dearly do
for now here i find
myself on a magic carpet,
a ride with you.

and yet here i am,
havent heard your voice in awhile
and yet here i am
having been kicked to the curb

my water is pure
my hear and heart is free
i feel blessed in the hopes and dreams that all is
wondrously happening to me

not a worry to think
not a hunger for breath
for here i am
trusting in
living in
loving in
Tao
our flow

Love

Well missymissmiss,
having returned from the kalediescope meeting, i am wowed! at how life is, and can direct you in ways you may not have imagined!!
especially being a dreamer in so many ways,... i have been eager to continue my flow of creating/outputting/continuing on with making 'it all happen'!!!
and now here i am, amidst a point in which it feels i am being summoned to 'breathe'...
to settle back a bit, gain some solidarity**, be an observer of myself, And have a gathering phase of allowing myself to truly make the most of all that i am passionate about accomplishing.
wowow!! it is unbelieveable, yet pretty much thankful, in that i can surrender all of which i have felt on my shoulders, in some regard, and to now have a sense of 'forgiveness' of anything that i have ever wanted to do,...meaning that i am FREE! o so truly FREE! to dream big again,...and yet before dreaming,...to realize the beauties of our existence, our experiences, our developments that have brought me/us to where were are today.. sooo beautiful.
while knowing that there is so much beauty in which i can embrace/and do embrace.
and there are so many wonderful people that i am surrounded by,...
and talents that i can strengthen and develop...
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! so much amazingness.

so now ...i am here...still accepting the sways of our journey... in that i will work towards our goals of
nfb video creating of our in depth canadian heritage and spirit of united journey
acting classes/making connections/getting on camera/theatre...experiences of LOVE! LIVING!
wow...o to let myself live, and grow :)...in preparence for 'well beyond and among our dreams'...
in that i may not be going home for the torch run?!!!!!! wow..
yet to not have to throw an event...kind of yay...
because than i can take time to EXPAND and make it BRILLIANT
so that i can return home, with full blown amazing work to share and...having time to truly tell our story... as an inspiration for all,...to think about what it means to live, the journey we as humanity has had...bringing us to a world that is connected. : celebrating cultural spirit of united
and being a dreamer, and being empowered to make dreams reality

EOE, WOOW
so,...basically i am thinkin...and seeing and feeling..
that 'if :)' i dont make it for the torch,..i can still inspire people in cht to film it/ submissions entering for 'Whitefeather 2010', the spirit of united
*of which i can return, with a nfb movie, of this journey,....sharing our works, as miss universe becoming,...
and a dreamer of acting, performing, sharing creativity and inspirational music, dance, arts and culture

'i invite you all to enjoy the spirit of the torch coming to our city',...reflect on the journey of the development of our city, ....
and prepare ourselves for the celebration of remembrance in 2012, for our freedoms among respect for aboriginal culture, (Laura Secord) 1812
****the torch is in canada, and the west coast, having come from beijing and athens greece we respect philosophy, mythology and artistic expression along with aboriginal peoples, living among sacredness of nature...we continue through africa, appreciating the spirit of cultures that celebrate through music and dance.
in doing so we bring ourselves to where we are today: remembering the spirit of slavery and determination that leads to newfound freedom among underground railroad and 1812.

At home, in chatham, dad's house. a week before i go to PINK!

staying at dads, visiting grandmas....quality time with grandmas,...truly :).. ive been brought to a comfort space in my own self,... aware of life on many levels.
as i said, although it has been highs and lows..
it is definately about listening to myself
slowing in the moment,

non reactions sometimes.... to just BE, listen, before acting.

also, i have dreamt ALOT. which is awesome. i love it. being able to ponder about that which i love to become. and believing in it, so full heartedly that i love to welcome the 'working towards' experience.

I am MISS DIVERSITY of canadian culture, who appreciates and respects aboriginal peoples and way of life that lives in harmony with nature
+

we evolved from peoples who lived off the land, to peoples who began to record art and writings, consciousness was able to be shared and recorded, With the technologies of an information age, people are able to learn about the diverse cultures of the world, and understand that although there are differences among beliefs or traditions, there is a commonality for peoples of all cultures to try to explain a supernatural understanding of who we are, a way of living life as 'human perfection'. evidence of philosophies such as yoga, arevedic medicine, natural healing of chinese medicine, and shamanism of aboriginal peoples - Various ethnicities and peoples have grown along with the traditions of their cultures and heritage, often being carried through philosophies, music, art and oral story telling. Today, with technologies and writings, each ethnicity and culture can be appreciated and celebrated for the diverse perspective and festivals that they bring to the world.

recognizing that cultures of the world can unite through festivals and events such as the Olympic games because it brings people of diverse cultures together, while being able to celebrate passion and dreams of the human spirit. Using the symbolism of the torch, as a symbolism for culture, I am titling my vision as ‘Celebration of Culture: United Spirit’.

Since being out west, I have experienced stories and legacies to be shared, remembered and celebrated. I am happy to be here, creating and working with stories, film editing, organizing of myself and my ideas in which I can write and share understanding through artistic works while aiming to inspire all that I have come to appreciate about our world, who we are, who we can be and the beautiful cultural experiences that can be experienced when we choose to consciously take part in our own lives and the world around us.

Indigenous culture

Peoples living among nature
before cement built cities, and city life sped up the lives of many people
Peoples lived in harmony with nature
understanding their connection with the land among which they lived.

communities of countryside still thrive through out the world, and these people understand where their food comes from, yet for many people who live in cities, their food is brought to them and bought within a framework of stores.
It is important to remember where food comes from, that the nutrients we need, comes from nature; land that feeds us from seeds, herbs, plants.
It is important to remember that the water we need comes from our ecosystems working among our land, filtered through our rivers and streams.

It is important to remember where we've been
and where we are now.
Aboriginal people lived in communities that thrived through living in harmony nature while celebrating their lives through music and dance, celebrations of their culture.

Since they were encountered by explorers, they have endured hardships, while striving to maintain a remembrance of their culture, identity and sacred connection to the land.

Although the cityscape of modern day has brought us a world of technologies, art and culture that can be appreciated, it is important to allow ourselves the time to learn about indigenous cultures. Understanding their culture was interfered with and they went through pain is an offering of respect. Remembering that their way of life of respecting each other and living off the land, in harmony with nature is to offer respect for their culture and learn that we too need to remember who we are through recognizing our connection with the land, and respect for the diverse cultural identities of the world.


Our world is a world of diverse peoples, expressed and shared through diverse cultures.
The remembrance and appreciation of all cultural identity offers ourselves experience to enjoy traveling and celebrations of festivals.

Through recognizing our shared experiences of life evolving and cultures merging, we can appreciate technologies of modern day that allow us to experience our diverse culture and heritage, - yet we live with respect and reverence for nature. Indig. harmony with nature.

*setting up the interviews
envisioning the story, and photos/transitions in between
*where to send in the treatment plan for the music video/transition
*because we have 'simplified', we can end with a question that leads us into our 'continuing with life work'
-----as long as im creating i am happy!! :):)
-----we leave the audience with, 'united through indig. culture', drumming,....*sped up of my experience there

=farm trek-nature walk
=universal truth-energy-music
=-modern world of merging -through technologies

the exciting thing is, i know i know so much and have so much passion/creative ability to share it!!
the thing is, a lot of this is also within my 'life work', so to 'make it happen' now, i have to create the story that I want to share, NOW.
--------also pictures of heritage around the cities that tell the story...as transitions/
this will include
evolving of consciousness, and our place in the cosmos, universe, spiritual or religious insight, Quest for meaning and Universal Connection in our lives
*aboriginal people-pictographs of civilization here for 1000's of years
*and europeans meeting on this land
*everyone has a story, whats yours
*appreciating the diversity of vancouver

although the modern world here, and diversity thrives
theres a heritage to be remembered

+++ carrying the book of remembrance to olympic countdown

*ask the children what they know, and what they love, how they see culture and learning about culture

-with technologies now here, ability to see history, where we are now, and share
-people uniting (farm-passion of aboriginal people as 'we are one')

now, a city of rich heritage, living in harmony with nature
*elders chat of nature/harmony
a diverse city, rich in the arts and culture, hosts the olympics
---igniting the spirit of art, celebrating the mind's passion... fiery spirit of sharing art & inspiration *INSPIRATION LIVES HERE

---olympics light of body and mind merging
*torch shared from greece and beijing,....exciting to see the world uniting
and passion/potential of 'dream with passionate energy and health', achieving their dreams
*children, 'what do you want to achieve', 'how do you see the world?'

what do you think of the olympics?
what is the yinyang balance in between
why are people of the city protesting the olympics as GREED?

+ talents, skills and hobbies
I am an artistic, creative and active person who loves getting involved in things that allow me to strengthen interests in all these areas.
I love to dance and be around music; creatively and as a listener.
I am a photographer and videographer who loves to capture moments in nature, moments in cultural experience; moments that inspire.
I love playing sport, getting fit, and spending time outside; a few favourites are tennis, skiing, waterskiing, throwing a football, house dance and exploring various kicks and movements of martial arts.
I love expressing myself through lifestyle and fashion, wearing clothes and presenting myself through style that I identity with and love to radiate as my best self.
I am a creative communicator who is good with kids as well as people of all ages.
I am a writer and researcher of various passionate interests.
My life talents, skills and hobbies are a testimony of my sincere passion to share who I am while inspiring people to understand and value heritage, culture, natural, healthy living while getting to know themselves and being inspired to develop their passion and potential.

+ I am a documentarian filmmaker who is very passionate about sharing who I am and what I've come to understand about myself, and the world around me. I engage myself in community events and festivals, maintaining a 'finger on the pulse of the city', so that I am aware of what I would like to attend in order to further learning and documentary stories. While gaining footage and interviews, I edit into videos of awareness and inspiration.
I love all forms of the arts, being creative and living a life in which I engage myself in activities of music, dance, sport, and being social. I truly value spending time with family and friends, as well as opportunities to meet new people and make connections.

+
I moved to Vancouver to explore the city and create a film about 'journey across a multicultural nation on the way to the common culture of the olympics'. Since being here, the story has continually developed through the events I have attended, and the people I have met.
My goal for this year is to create a documentary that shares the journey I have been exploring through my travels and engagement within cultural events and festivals and to be able to show it when the torch is being passed through canada, and brought to vancouver.
At the same time my ambition is to continually gather ideas. Therefore, through visions and passion my goal is to further my career path of making films, sharing stories, writing understandings and: to inspire.

+
I have filmed a variety of festivals such as chinese new year, and events of cultural olympiad.
I have attended many wonderful events that have allowed me to be around children, inspiring them to learn about nature through events such as the UBC farm and earth day. This included interacting with them at drum circles, and asking them questions about what they gained from learning at the farm.
I am passionate about sharing awareness of the importance of maintaining our natural environment, knowing where our food comes from and therefore living natural, healthy lifestyles.

+ my fav. community project
Many of them were enjoyable and appreciated however a memorable one was 'Night Quest' at Pacific Spirit Park. This was an event for families, where there were activities that inspired appreciation for nature, our environment, and inspiring the desire to dream through fairy tale characters roaming the park and a light show to wrap up the evening.
It was inspiring to see children having the opportunity to explore mother nature through an event that brought people together to have fun while learning.

+ambitions and 10 yrs from now:

I love to experience and capture awareness of culture so I can create artistic communications; such as films, to share what I have experienced through my journey of appreciating cultural diversity.
My passion and ambitions in life range from sharing understanding of heritage, remembering ways of life that are in harmony with nature, living within sustainable, healthy communities and understanding philosophies of natural healing; all the while, inspiring people to live happy and healthy lifestyles through being active, knowing themselves, their bodies and their passions.
My ambition is to inspire people to get to know themselves while engaging themselves in their communities, and the world around them.
As I continually develop my passions of music, dance and creating visuals, I am building my career path as a filmmaker and artist of merit.


In 10 years, I see myself as a fit, healthy and happy 34 year old who has an internet following for my website that shares my travels of culture and awareness. My website has my photography, travel journals, book writings, films, and favorite clothing accessories available.
I am also an artist who travels with my artistic 'concert' of music, dance and visuals, of which share inspirational stories of cultural celebration and awareness of heritage.
I have also begun the plans of starting a social camp/school programs for children, youth and high school students, which inspire them to explore their interests, give them guidance for developing their passions, and offer them opportunities to get engaged in sport, music, dance, filmmaking, as well as awareness of culture, heritage and sustainable, healthy living.

I would say that all cultures come from diverse backgrounds, with each generation being influenced by the perspectives, beliefs and values that were passed down from the people that lived before them.

Through understanding our evolution we can learn to 'unfilter' our perspectives, so we can move beyond the opinions we have been taught through growing up in a society that has attempted to tell us what is right or wrong.

In regards to understanding an ideal of human perfection, religion, or philosophies have attempted to explain how we can live our human potentials and they often started because of a revelation of someone who sensed a spiritual experience. An enlightening experience of what you may choose to call, human perfection. Through the time and culture it was experienced in, people attempted to explain it, define it,... in doing so, restrictions of the experience or explanations -became institutionalized. Also, the writings of these perspectives and experiences were written by a few, and the stories recorded were often translated through word of mouth.
Either way, for some people, for some religions, this has left a feeling of superiority of, 'ours is the way' even thought the original message has perhaps been misunderstood, forgetting the spiritual connection of the original revelational experience.

In my understanding, there are many ways to describe spiritual understanding, and each person can explore various philosophies and traditions that they feel works for them.

Through my research into heritage and culture, I have come to understand that as we evolved from peoples who lived off the land, to peoples who began to record art and writings, consciousness was able to be shared and recorded, sometimes melded to fit pursuit of power for some people. With the technologies of an information age, the gap between a human ideal of perfection, related to 'hatred' is ever closing, because people are able to learn about the diverse cultures of the world, and understand that although there are differences among beliefs or traditions, there is a commonality for peoples of all cultures to try to explain a supernatural understanding of who we are, a way of living life as 'human perfection'. We are all on a Quest Home, for Truth, Love, Spirit and Understanding in our lives.

-----------------


To close the gap among what may be perceived as conflicting beliefs, we can recognize that that which may make us different, does not need to divide us. We can appreciate our cultural diversity.
Through sharing information of each of our cultures and traditions, we can unfilter biased perspectives of the past (ex, one religion feeling they are 'the way', for really, there are many descriptions of explaining a sense of the 'sacred', we can now choose for ourself.)
The evidence of philosophies such as yoga, arevedic medicine, natural healing of chinese medicine, and remembering shamanism of aboriginal peoples - being brought to streets of modern societies, shows that the world is uniting, able to move beyond conflicting perspectives.

Various ethnicities and peoples have grown along with the traditions of their cultures and heritage, often being carried through philosophies, music, art and oral story telling. Today, with technologies and writings, each ethnicity and culture can be appreciated and celebrated for the diverse perspective and festivals that they bring to the world.

olympics is in canada this year, the torch is going through chatham dec. 23rd.
we have an opportunity to share with the world, what chatham kent is all about.
we have rich heritage of aboriginal people, freedom route of the underground railroad; settlers of slaves who we became free
we live along a river, and we live among the great lakes, at the point of ontario, close to america,
so we have been a place where people settled when they rode horse and buggys as well as the when the train and car industries were introduced. *the journey of technology, bringing us to where we are today*

we farm and have local markets,
we have summer and winter sports, boat culture, kiteboarding, tractor pulls
we have festivals such as heritage days and medeival times.
retrofest; the vibes of what it was like to start riding in cars, days of art, culture and theatre dt, enjoying the technology that developed to bring movies/filmmaking to the screen

our land is fertile and prosperous...
we ignite the flame of memories for our heritage and histories for the cultural spirit now, and that which was before us.

the olympics is an event in which people come together to celebrate passion of the human spirt. celebrating the dream and determination of athletes. it is an opportunity for the world to come together in celebration of the common cultures of sport and artistic achievements.

through a world of communication technology that we live in, it has also become an opportunity to share with the world, the cultural spirit and heritage of the host city and it's country.

With the games of 2010, let's ignite the torch's flame with the vision and passion of bringing the world together through respecting culture and heritage of all peoples.

We are a nation full of people who's ancestors sought after dreams of new beginnings, freedom, and opportunity....these dreams and quests for new beginnings, created canada as the multicultural country that we live in today. However, as we enjoy our lives, let us remember the legacy and stories of aboriginal peoples who thrived among these lands that we, as a multicultural nation, call home==in doing so, together we welcome the world.

poem of looveeeee
it is important for me to be happy right now/not stressed.... because i can feel the creativity within me when it is strong, or when it is worn down. ***impt to remember, 'breathe in life',...allow yourself time for YOU to know YOU. work with your thoughts. get them to where you want to be. if your heart is not with you, breathe. do something to get it there, or move yourself to be where you belong.

Love yourself.
and learn to Know yourself so you can love yourself fully.
Listen to your heart and Live as your heart.
-let your consious mind be your companion.
Make time for yourself to do the things you know you love to do
and make time to explore things you may love to do.
Get Engaged in the community around you
Welcome yourself to it
and know that you can bring things to it as well.

The world is yours to experience
and the world most definately loves you to contribute yourself.
There are fields that are allways ready for your passions to be planted.

Live your life so that when it is your experience to move on
your footprint is appreciated and felt upon the ground in which you now choose to walk.

I love this poem!! and it 'comes from the heart' ( :) Love you amanda!! and my aborginal studies class)

A Vision for ABORIGINAL Identity Music Video concept: TO BE CREATED SOONTIME :)

respect for the land and heritage
offering people opportunities to develop their spirit, their passion and achieve their potential
through technologies offering inspiration and awareness
living in respect and reverence for nature
celebration of arts, culture, identity:
celebration of art and sport: body and mind
world unites in celebration: united awareness and culture

this is our Always Vision

communities of countryside still thrive through out the world, and these people understand where their food comes from, yet for many people who live in cities, their food is brought to them and bought within a framework of stores.
It is important to remember where food comes from, that the nutrients we need, comes from nature; land that feeds us from seeds, herbs, plants.
It is important to remember that the water we need comes from our ecosystems working among our land, filtered through our rivers and streams.

It is important to remember where we've been
and where we are now.
Aboriginal people lived in communities that thrived through living in harmony nature while celebrating their lives through music and dance, celebrations of their culture.

Since they were encountered by explorers, they have endured hardships, while striving to maintain a remembrance of their culture, identity and sacred connection to the land.

Although the cityscape of modern day has brought us a world of technologies, art and culture that can be appreciated, it is important to allow ourselves the time to learn about indigenous cultures. Understanding their culture was interfered with and they went through pain is an offering of respect. Remembering that their way of life of respecting each other and living off the land, in harmony with nature is to offer respect for their culture and learn that we too need to remember who we are through recognizing our connection with the land, and respect for the diverse cultural identities of the world.


Our world is a world of diverse peoples, expressed and shared through diverse cultures.
The remembrance and appreciation of all cultural identity offers ourselves experience to enjoy traveling and celebrations of festivals.

Through recognizing our shared experiences of life evolving and cultures merging, we can appreciate technologies of modern day that allow us to experience our diverse culture and heritage, - yet we live with respect and reverence for nature. Indig. harmony with nature.

*ask the children what they know, and what they love, how they see culture and learning about culture

-with technologies now here, ability to see history, where we are now, and share
-people uniting (farm-passion of aboriginal people as 'we are one')

Music plays,

-scene 1
It is a clear day of sun shining among the trees of a prosperous forest. Green plant life encompasses the ground, and the trees extend towards clear skies. We shoot from the sky towards the ground, following the solid trunk of a tree. Panning around the lucious green of the forest, we zoom towards a totem pole while images of aboriginal life and culture flash on the screen. Aboriginal life is among the spirit of the forest.

-scene 2
Cut to: Among an urban side street, large, welcoming trees line the pavement of a street surrounded by parked cars. From a distance, an aboriginal woman is coming into view. She pauses by a tree, as if hearing something from it. She turns her head and looks with sincere curiosity.
Shooting from the perspective of the tree, the woman walks towards us with genuine interest.
We cut to shoot from the women's view, zooming towards the tree trunk, our gaze looks up towards the branches, and back down, as if to analyze the trunk.
We hear faint, warm whispers among the music
-'there is a heritage of every landscape'
The woman takes a step back in excitement. She expresses that she feels energy from the tree, knowing there is something to learn, to remember. She has a pleasant smile and eyes of curiosity as she moves around, exploring her surroundings.

Scene fades out, and flashes between scene 1 and 2, forest, and urban side street
-------------------------

scene 3
We return to a forest of dense trees. We are taken from a view of the sky, down the center of a tree trunk Viewing the landscape, towering trees and brilliant green plants are shown among the ground of the forest. We hear the faint, warm whispers, 'land carries with it a peoples story to tell-'
The woman slowly turns around, exploring her surroundings. She smiles at her surroundings with sincere happiness and curiosity. She hears the faint, warm whispers,
'Remember Who We Are' (during the words, an effect of 'spirit'/whiteness goes over the screen).
We see the bare feet of a woman pass by.

-scene 4
Among the plants, the woman is gently examining and appreciating nature. Her hands are shown as she is gently and lovingly collecting plant life/herbs

-scene 5
The woman is peaceful, breathing in fresh air with appreciation. She stands up and smiles as she looks around the forest, embracing the energy of her surroundings. As she walks towards a tree, she puts a hand up. As she touches the tree bark, she pauses in the moment, sharing the energies of the tree in recognition of it's source of life. Her breath is deep and peaceful. We sense her understanding of breathing with harmony, breathing in source of life*
We see her reflecting with the tree. She is smiling with gratitude.

scene 6
drumming is beginning
music of drumming slowly increases
The woman looks around, with smiles and calm excitement. With herbs collected, she walks towards her destination, as if listening and following the laughter and drumming.

scene 7
On her walk, the woman meets up with another woman. The second woman gracefully stands up from picking plants/herbs. They acknowledge each other with a smile. Together, they walk through the forest with their plants/herbs in hand.

sound of drums/chanting/singing/song/music increases

(----if able, there is a ceremonial fire on the beach

scene 8
We see sand on a beach. Passing through the shot, dancing feet are gently mixing with the softness of the sand. We see the drummers hands passionately playing the drums.

=============================================================
scene 9
(if actors willing, and dress/time available)
We see a silloette of peoples dancing among the fire. They are celebrating to the beat of the drums, and energizing the rhythm of the song through their dance. Moving to the beat of their songs, and singing through the words of their chants, they alter their movements, having hands raised up, and bending their bodies down. We see them dancing with the flow of the ocean behind them.
Suddenly, there is background noise of steamship/horn/ boat arriving/ voices of english picks up
The music of chants and drumming quickly fades as the dancers/drummer pause out of their celebrations. Curiously, they gaze out towards the water.

OR
The woman (in scene 2), walks out of forest, onto the beach (and fire). She looks around with joyful smiles, appreciating the sounds she is hearing of the chanting/drumming/music. She walks through the sand, caressing the sand with her feet. She is walking among the beach, peacefully appreciating the experience, and breathing in freshness among the air.

there is background noise of steamship/horn/ boat arriving/ voices of english picks up
As the woman hears the noises, she quickly looks towards the water. The music fades.

scene 11
Images of ships flash over the shot of the stillness of water.
we hear voice of
'what are they doing'
'who are these people'

fade to black...
heart beat/drum beat is heard

As the sound of the heart beat picks up, we see the woman in the forest picking herbs. We see the water. We see the woman picking herbs, we see the water with a ship over it.
As the music beats, the image becomes a switching of, like a breathing/BLINKING pulse.

scene 12
a flash of white takes over the screen. the beating of the drum merges into peaceful, inspiring music
The woman is at the urban street. As she looks at the trunk of the tree, she sees a book that has the sun and moon on it. She graciously bends down and picks it up.
She brushes her hand over the cover, and breathes in a deep breath. She opens it and smiles, pausing in the moment to appreciate what she has come to understand and appreciate about aboriginal culture and identity. Closing it, she brings it up to her chest and looks up towards the sky. Taking in a deep breath while smiling, she carries the book with her as she walks down the street.
White fades in.

as you bathe in this Light, feel this assurance in your every electron. Recognize this shining Light as your true body. Feel the consciousness of the living, giving unity of Love. All That I Am is alive within you and bursting forth through your heart to amplify My truth and My good. The truth is that every life is pure and perfect, and joined in a majestic totality that is giving birth to the Real world of Love, unity and joy. It is happening instantly now and easily through you.
+++we are love and light: awakening the world of joy.

You are My heart, My consciousness, My Love, ready now to blaze forth like the living comet. You write the truth of God into the world for every precious person. This is why I call you to rise up quickly above any personal concerns and to understand that you are fueled by the living Spirit.

I Am whispering in the voice of Love to your heart’s inner ear. I place before your feet the golden walkway of a life lived from the heart outward, that the world might reflect to you My bounty, the glorious potential that comes from the amplification of the truth of Love within you. You then gift this to humanity, to every precious person, to every life stream, to every ball of energy.
It is only by turning to the inner eye, the heart’s true vision, that you can see current events for what they really are. Only this way can you recognize the beauty of Love you are weaving as it shifts the world back to the heart of God and brings humanity into alignment with the law of giving, the truth of open- hearted Love. It is the voice of the living God I Am, unified and singing a new song of life.

Heaven on Earth filled with Light and nourishment is ever being received from above, the pure nourishment that is the very highest vibration. It comes to you directly from Me continually. Please remember that you can live on Light easily. I Am the nourishment that you need. As you choose to release the world focused outward, you shall become completely spirit-led, and every moment will be abundant blessings with synchronicity as the order of every day.

Doorways will open before you effortlessly because your heart, beloved ones, is the key that turns the lock on the door to your glorious abundance, to the life beyond your farthest dreams. Every step that you take will be in the Light, in the guidance of that flame of God you are in Me.

As you turn and open and feel My presence, let the cares of the world fall away. Let Me bathe you in the upliftment of the living glory, of the great and endless Love I Am. Feel the Twin Flame heart that you are, shining to become My beacon for humankind.

show forth the truth of God in every way. This may occur sometimes through taking the time to listen and sometimes through bending with others to pray. Often times you will become My voice speaking and open to the instant manifestation of the Light. As you walk with Me and you live in My name and you open your heart, your voice, your consciousness, everything, you will find yourself becoming the manifestation of every good and abundant thing provided for all of My glorious children through My open heart, always.
----If you change a person’s heart by bringing My presence and letting them feel the expansion of hope and joy; when you touch their heart with the surety of My abundance, then you change their life from that moment onward. There is no greater gift.

when your heart is engaged in My presence and with you, I will move you easily in the world, shining the Light of your hearts effortlessly on the pathway of your greatest service, yes, but also your greatest blessing.

The abundance of life will be reflected to you in everything that you see and experience around you. You are My heart’s Light shining. Your open heart alone can light the world. Come, beloved ones, into the inner sanctuary that you might feel Me, feel My presence as alive in you as your very heart beating, as Real as your every breath, that you might be the Light I Am, lighting everything before you.

As you bathe in this Light, feel this assurance in your every electron. Recognize this shining Light as your true body. Feel the consciousness of the living, giving unity of Love. All That I Am is alive within you and bursting forth through your heart to amplify My truth and My good. The truth is that every life is pure and perfect, and joined in a majestic totality that is giving birth to the Real world of Love, unity and joy. It is happening instantly now and easily through you.

What does it mean to be the compassionate heart of God I Am? It means to reach out and see with My eyes, to see the pure Light and life I Am in everyone and to hold that truth without wavering. Each precious person who feels your blessing can reach forth and take that torch from you and hold it high enough that it becomes the Light by which they see – the Light of God illuminating their world. In that Light they will easily see whatever has been limiting them, allowing the Light to transform it, that each beloved heart might step free at last, affirming that they are the unlimited source of abundance, the heart within Me.

*
As the Light speaks in the dancing voice of energy, you will find yourself moving through this ecstasy of pure Light with open-hearted Love and joy, until life at last becomes awake and fluid again. You will find it easily shifting to the heart’s expression.

The era of perfect Love and eternal grace will wrap all humankind as I reach forth and turn every beautiful and precious face back facing Home, homeward to me, releasing every form of limitation, every bit of human baggage and setting everyone free, together to be the living heart of God I Am, creating the world abundantly by living from the heart outward.

The world you see will be your Love expressed. Every bit of it will be the perfect dance of joy and unity -- humankind as a brotherhood and sisterhood, and every heart saying “Yes” to being the expression of My Love.

Dearest ones, with all the tales of woe and fear that are spreading, take care not to spread the lies of fear, not to place your glorious and powerful consciousness on those patterns of life that are unraveling. Rather, hold your vision firm on the Light and on the Love I Am.

Hold fast to the feelings of joy. Become the creator of the world that is being born, transformer of the old that is leaving, so that every life on Earth lives in this glory of dancing Light and waves of ecstasy. Help everyone to see everything with the heart’s vision, the vision of unity, rather than the two eyes of the ego’s dualistic world.

Please start today reaching within and finding Me, so that the movement of My Love from within you moving outward becomes the way you live. You are a co-creator of a world of unity and blessing.

Alright, as JL, this is Reality.
I am feeling pressure of getting things created for what my dreams dreamt, for the story of the olympics and being able to create all that I have envisioned. Today I had to bring one of my hard drives in to be checked, and hopefully recovered. I have other hard drives to back up work, but I must admit I haven’t followed up completely to keep things double saved. *NOW I WILL*.
So,
I have been working on a few different projects lately. One was to finish up the legacy of Marc Emery, to offer respect for his journey, and all that he has done for Cannabis Culture.
I have also been working between a few projects of JL’s Journey including the snowmobile out west journey, and once arriving in Vancouver, ‘Being a Dreamer and Achieving your dreams’.

Previous work over the past few months has been editing on JL’s journey from *Freedom Festival 2007, the first event that I filmed, *footage from when I went to my old highschool, Ursuline College in Chatham where I created a film and posters, and went into classes, discussing what I was getting up to. Then there is footage from when *I was throwing my first intro documentary party event.

The up and coming project in which is now of my highest priorities, is my vision of what brought me to the west coast. The opportunity of the Olympics, which I recognized as an opportunity to create a film based around the idea of ‘Journey across a multicultural nation on the way to the common culture of the Olympics.’

My passion was, and is recognizing that cultures of the world can unite through festivals and events such as the Olympic games because it brings people of diverse cultures together, while being able to celebrate passion and dreams of the human spirit. Using the symbolism of the torch, as a symbolism for culture, I am titling my vision as ‘Celebration of Culture: United Spirit’.

Since being out west, I have experienced stories and legacies to be shared, remembered and celebrated. I am happy to be here, creating and working with stories, film editing, organizing of myself and my ideas in which I can write and share understanding through artistic works while aiming to inspire all that I have come to appreciate about our world, who we are, who we can be and the beautiful cultural experiences that can be experienced when we choose to consciously take part in our own lives and the world around us.

Love you for listening.
Thanks.

And to JL;
I allow myself to flow nicely through these next months, as I commit myself to editing processes, and feel calm and centered in the work I am doing.
I still believe in myself, no matter what stage I am at, or no matter what happens. I have invested so much in my dreams and passions, and so much heart and soul through the journey I have been on, and love to be on.
It truly is beautiful experience that I am having!
I am so happy to dedicate my energy, my mind, body and soul to being my best, happy, confident self. It is a great journey to endure, indeed!

I am approaching the opportunity of becoming miss Universe Canada, so all of this work is definitely worth applying my deepest self and highest energies to. I look forward to being toned!, speaking languages other than only English!, being able to smile and be radiant, offering of myself.
