It’s not my way, I’m just a rescuer by nature. Because I see beauty in everything Good or Evil, Order or Chaos. Probably doesn’t seem normal to make sense but after what I’ve seen and done harmony, is the way. Yes that often means not being understood. Because my intention is always from my heart & soul. Texans are known for their fierce independence, “Don’t Mess with Texas.” The spiritual meaning of Texas celebrates these qualities and reminds us that we can overcome Texas has a long history of #religiousfreedom and tolerance, Texas has a deep connection to #NativeAmerican traditions. Texas was home to several indigenous tribes, These tribes had their #spiritualbeliefs Texas represents #strength, #resilience, and #independence, and is often associated with the story of #DavidversusGoliath.

The “#x” represents a #crucifixion, symbolizing sacrifice, and the “#as” represents abundance, #wealth, and #prosperity. “these symbols suggest that #Texas is a land of #sacrifice and #abundance.” #dmr #surfman374 #family #life https://lnkd.in/gsZtXDJd

Perhaps the Dream Time can help us grow.
