Miccosukee Embassy Doing Sanctuary at the Miccosukee Embassy in Miami can sometimes seem like doing time in prison. Talk about banality. Thankfully the place has a great sound system. When it's just me and Haalie, I turn up the volume and the voluminous space fills with music that bounces off the stone floors and ricochets off the glass walls. And we dance like no one is watching. I love how my little girl dances so freely, so happily.
But when I discovered this song, I couldn't dance. I had to grab up Haalie and hold her tightly, to slowly sway to the music as one.
That song made me think of my life, the war for Gaia I fought with Nokosee and the child that was born on that fateful night deep in the burning Everglades as we fought for our lives. I love its refrain because that's how I feel. Although I've been stuck here for some time, Haalie makes it doable. And the music restores my soul's purpose.
