Luke | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:13 pm  I think we're totally finding out a lot more about ourselves through these questions... This is cool... |
Roger_Ramjet | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:17 pm  Luke---it has it moments.......I agree though about actually finding out some important things about each other. Don't know how the outside folks compare such things as that to the more "fun" dares.......I guess I can can pretty muc say I'm asking such things for my benefit of getting to know you guys as well as I can---not too worried about the others outside. (Seeing my stock drop considerably--oh well) |
Luke | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:20 pm  Hehehe... I totally relate with you... I was thinking the same thing. I mean... without getting too mushy... I like you guys... and I plan on getting to know you more and more... OH WHAT THE HECK.... I WANT A GROUP HUG RIGHT NOW!!! |

Luke | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:29 pm  Hey guys... Im feeling like $hit (physically.... emotially/mentally I feel great)... I gotta get some shut eye... I'm heading home, and will log on right before i hit the sack.... |
Roger_Ramjet | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:31 pm  Ok--I'm waiting for Moon's reply---see you when you are bac on line! |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:31 pm  What a wonderful question ... one I find myself answering everyday within myself... First when it comes to forgiveness, I feel I have learned so much from the Native Americans... First Nations. I am truly amazed how forgiving they have been. This is a deep subject and it deserves more than I will say about it ... but lets look at this. They were here first ... here comes another nation to settle and claim it as their own ... no choice given to the Nations First. Treaties broken, promises not kept... I feel like they were given the shaft for the sake of greed. But as my ancestors have said for 'every path has a reason' ... but most important than the past is 'Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back to where they are" Hehaka Sapa ...Oglala Tribe. Also Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature, and regret is useless...Seattle Suquamish Mistakes were made but it is our obligation to make due... I feel what the First Nations are asking for is respect ... not just for them but for what they cherish... Mother Earth. What does this mean to me ... reveal an earthwise and spiritual approach to daily life. I am so proud to be Cherokee Indian |
Vykin | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:33 pm  Okay I'm back, later than I thought, Don't think for a minute that I didn't see you inmates talking about me! HiMays, I know ur gone, but, I didn't run when you answered the dare, I read it before I left!!! You came through!!! Applause applause. (only took you half the evening though. Now as i skimmed I saw stuff about carrots Moon? is that 14Carrot or 18Carrot? please clarify. Lukor, I'll be waiting for your film. Okay I'm ready to play if anyone else is still out here. |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:35 pm  I feel like I have not done this question justice... I am so passionate about it and have so much to say ... I am crying now because every time I think of the struggles and heartache they suffered ... it is unexplainable. I am so blessed. It has brought so much more spiritual depth to my life. |
Roger_Ramjet | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:35 pm  Thanks you so very much Moon That was very moving!!!! You are right about the greed issue--how can it be anything else. As far as respect goes----seems to be one of the tougher things to get from anyone in today's times. |
Vykin | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:36 pm  Moon that was really a good response. Nice to read and for you to share it. |
Roger_Ramjet | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:39 pm  Moon, you are welcome to write as much about it as you wish----I thought by asking I could get to know you so much better.....I am sorry for making you cry though. Being that it's so very important to you, I do not want to put a limit on how much you wish to share about this part of your life, and the life of your fellow kinspeople Vyk---I made Moon cry.... |
Vykin | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:39 pm  Moon the stigmatisms attached to native people are so misguided, and as you say the greed factor. It is so unfortunate and tragic that the first people of the north american lands, were treated like such dregs by an "imported society". I have number of First Nations friends, its so painful what the natives have gone through its almost unimaginable that other human beings would be so cruel, yet, we know they are. |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:41 pm  Roger LOL... you make me cry... you make me strip ... you make me do a lot of things! |
Vykin | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:41 pm  But Roger Moon is crying for good reasons, it shows she has spiritual beliefs in the values and traditions of her native heritage. Moon Roger and I will cry along with you and let you know how respected your words are. |
Vykin | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:43 pm  So, who is next? Or are we having a moment? |
Roger_Ramjet | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:45 pm  Well, I think Moon get to choose to either provide us some more insights or if she doesn't want to, take her turn at one of us. Moon, I do a lot of things to you??? As long as one of them is not hurting you, I can live with it. Or is it Vyk's turn?? |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:47 pm  The Holocaust, Slavery ... I believe the First Nations people suffered this too ... unimaginable that this happens... One of the Cherokee elders I have been lucky to know says, that it starts with one word ... written or spoken, it can takes off in a fireball from there. |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:48 pm  Okay I am done... Vy truth or dare |
Vykin | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:50 pm  truth always the truth |
Roger_Ramjet | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:51 pm  Hey Moon, I feel that I owe you an answer from earlier today, if you still want it?? Giving of you soul like you just did was wonderful of you to do!!! thanks for sharing! |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:54 pm  Other than being a Father...what is the best thing about your life right now? <sneaking this in > are you in a relationship-married or otherwise |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:56 pm  yes, Roger, please I would love truths from two men |
Moondance | Monday, October 23, 2000 - 10:58 pm  Thank you both by the way for your support on my answer... That and animals, I get pretty emotional |
