Other poster. contest winners Included Darcy Levesque, Nicole Glover, Christa Lambright, . Healing of spirit won't be forgotten Philip Stewart ts a-Grade 10 student at Skeena Junior Secondary School. The following is a writen assignment he produced after attending the Septem- ber Rising Spirit IT workshop. From Sept. 14 ta Sept. 18, speakers ex- amined personal, family and community healing. Topics included alcohol and drug abuse, physical, mental and sexual abuse and grieving. The workshop was sponsored by the Kermode Friendship Centre. By PHILIP STEWART J went through a number of changes at the workshop — all for the better. I got a better outlook on people. Before the workshop I basically disrespected most people. Yet during the workshop I began to see all of the values of different people. Isee that all people’s spirits are the same in valuc, no matter how old or young, big or small. No one has the right to look down on other people or to Judge their people. I found this workshop ta be a source of counsclling. It had a. way of calming you down yet kecping you going in life. This workshop somehow was able to strengthen my self esteem and got me more enthusiastic about a lot of things like my community and this is just by listening to them speak all that they know. This workshop made me really look at myself, Rather than sceing all of the nega- tives about myself, I see what I am good at and 1 almost immediately stopped feeling sorry aboul myself and started really facing and dealing with my problems. For the past few months I have been studying my culture, but now I see it in a whole new perspective. You see now I see it as I am part of my culture and not some- one who is along side, looking on. When I was listening. to the speaker, I _o just felt-that I was studying too hard and ’ not being part of the native culture. © Another change | made in my life is 1am trying to quit talking about other people ~ behind their back:and to be a-better friend. ~ L guess I quit doing that because of what one of the speakcts said to us, “‘if you want people to slop talking about you, you '. have to stop talking about people.”” One of the best changes I have made is to change disrespect into respect. One of the speakers said that if you want to_ . smoke, you have to respect the tobacco or Philip Stewart it will disrespect you by giving you heart problems, He said that you have to respect all things or you will be punished by the creator, At this workshop I became part of my culture by participating in all of their teachings. One of the teachings that I pirticipated in was the smudging — it was very inter- esting. The smudge smells a bit like how a forest smells when buming. We used ‘our hands to swing the smoke to ourbody. We smudge to cleanse our body and our spirit. We rub the smoke over our head to cleanse our spirits. We swing the smoke to our eyes to see what we do wrong so we can make it right and to see what is going wrong with Mother Earth. Then we.do the same to our hearis to help -get rid of the burt and pain which may be there, ; We swing it to our legs so they may take us in the right direction, wherever we want to go, All in all the workshop was + quite in- fluential and overwhelming. |.” It i3 an experience that will: never. be forgotten. It will slay with me , forerver, ne til the end of time.
