Who

Who is in the Toteg Tribe and what do they mean to me? Currently there are nine members to the Tribal council. I consider Traveler, Q, Aisling to be Aunt/Mother like to me. Stuart is not unlike an Uncle. JJ, Nahani, and Jaelle are like big sisters to me. I feel like I am the youngest of this close family. We have all known each other for several years online and were all family before Joe died. I would open my house to any of them. There are a couple dozen other Toteg members online and there are many of them that I feel I know fairly well. We are all a family. We have the same basic principles of life. We believe in our Tenets with cultural respect and integrity. Many of these people are married or have partners that have different beliefs, but that is the same with most families. It is hard to explain the connection that we all have. Some of us have big lumps on our heads from speaking without thinking, or trying to make something out of nothing. We help each other and walk together. We understand paths and differences that make us unique and wish for nothing but the best with heart filled love and sacredness.

We are Toteg Tribe.

Don’t look beyond my words,

Don’t read into my actions,

Know my heart,

Know my love,

Take comfort there.

Find peace and walk with me.

Don’t judge out of fear,

Inner strength, below and above,

Center your heart,

Calm your reaction,

Listen to what you heard,

Believe in you, us, and me.

Together we are complete.
