Kë Wzhetomen Mizhatthwen

Awareness of our words' etymology elucidates so much of our cultural thoughts and understandings. A fundamental example of such is our word for the drum, déwégen. Knowing that the particle dé refers to the heart is a small insight into understanding the cultural belief that the drum is the heartbeat of gokmeskinan, our grandmother earth. Never have I felt so at peace in my life with this synergy of personal, cultural, and workplace fulfillment, and I am truly blessed for such an incredible opportunity. Migwėtth iw ė nathmoyan – Thank you, and that's all I have to say.
