QUOTE: AFRICAN CUSTOM "I am good" They believe all people r born good & just need reminding of it
"An African tribe does the most beautiful thing. When someone does something hurtful and wrong, they take the person to the center of town, and the entire tribe surrounds that person ...
For two days they'll tell the person every good thing they have ever done.
The tribe believes that every human being comes into the world as Good, each of us desiring safety, love, peace, happiness.
But sometimes in the pursuit of those things people make mistakes.
The community sees misdeeds as a cry for help.
They band together for the sake of their fellow person to hold that person up, to reconnect with their true Nature, to remind that person who they really are, until he fully remembers the truth from which he'd temporarily been disconnected: “I AM GOOD.”

love that photo of the wild horses - didn\'t really realize we still have that in usa, though i know they are trying to get a rescue for that
Yes there are still wild horses out west. Not sure which state tho.
I love that African thing... it\'s so good to remind us when we have strayed.
Loved the African thing......\"I am good.\" :-)
Also enjoyed seeing the wild horses, what a beautiful pic! It makes me cold just looking at all that snow.
Now that would be a MAJOR rescue if they could do it.
someone around here did one from canada. they brought the horses down from canada. verrrrry expensive. they were being killed. many were former race horses and trained horses. senseless. amazing things like that go on and they happen ALLLL the time. they need to teach animal care in elementary schools.
