Well, I'm feeling a bit more confident about writing, a professor recently told me that a paper I wrote for a scholarship was good, I said "really" giving her an opportunity to take back her words but she said it was good and written from the heart. This was all I needed to start blogging.
Why do I want to blog, I feel a need offer a Cherokee perspective on issues that affect the masses. Native people are not included in polls or asked to give expert opinion on the news channels and I have been concerned with the direction our nation is moving in; national and tribe.
