i am 25% mix of chickasaw and cherokee but my heart and sole is 100% first nations spirit. i have known since i was 3 years old who i am and where my sole came from. since the age of 4 i would go out into the forest alone and explore and hunt. i would be gone from morning till night and sometimes days exploring nature. my mother grew up on the cherokee reservation in north carolina but put me up for adoption when i was 3. i have never fit in with normal society growing up with whites. i dont understand them and they understand me and i think the only people i fit in with are native people. i took it upon myself to learn the chickasaw language and i have learned many lakota songs that i enjoy singing and playing the native flute. i hope to find a native woman that i can spend the rest of my life with. if not i was looking into adopting native children and helping them grow up in a loving and understanding environment where they have the chance to embrace there culture and be happy.
