field notes on ancestral connections rooted in agency vs expectations

the weight of our unspoken expectations impact our capacity to show up for one another and build loving relationships rooted in agency.
🕊️
we are not entitled to unfettered access to our ancestors, the wisdom and stories they hold. often times we have not developed the skills necessary to engage various aspects of their medicines.
🕊️
the gift of our aliveness is how they show up for us daily. how can your life be a call and response of gratitude for the gift of your aliveness?
🕊️
how can you approach ancestral relationship from a space of agency rather than entitlement?

these skills apply to many facets of relationship building with all beings
