In the blood ...
 
Hello MLU-ers All ...

I know that I've said in different places in here that my blood is a wild mixture of:

ENGLISH .... ENGLAND (London)
CREE .......... CANADA before it was CANADA :D
SCOTTISH ... ORKNEYS
FRENCH ...... QUEBEC/FRANCE
ICELANDIC ... ICELAND
IRISH ........(Mom said it was there somewhere too :D )
PIXIE WITCH ... LEFT FIELD (oops)

My blood runs with the blood of immigrants who came here before me from known, and UN-known places. I consider Aboriginal aka Native Indians to be immigrants as well ... they just somehow found their way here first it appears, so if this be the case, I'm fully running on a tank of immigrants blood, in a pretty new country still.

I AM CANADIAN. Canadian first, then I am everything else.

ENGLISH-CANADIAN
CREE-CANADIAN
SCOTTISH-CANADIAN
FRENCH-CANADIAN
ICELANDIC-CANADIAN
IRISH-CANADIAN
PIXIE WITCH-LEFT FIELD (OOPS! :D)

How about you? What's "in the blood" of YOU???

Nite all ...

Mixed race/genes worms that is :D

I enjoy knowing I have Cree blood, and all the other "bloods" in me. What a history to follow the people and stories backwards through the generations hey? I hope I can visit the countries of my ancestors some day! But Canada is home and is where my heart lives because this is where my citizenship is. I'd like to have Flags for all of my inner bloodlines original countries ... hmmmm ... which reminds me, we have no JACK, UNION or otherwise, to fly :( I would surely fly it right now, in honour of those lives lost in London, if I had one.

Mixed blood
 
I truly think that is not one of us here,that can say
we are not of mixed blood,this makes us who we are.
I'm from the US your from Canada,these things are
strong within us.
If there is one thing if learned in all of my travels,
freedom resides in the heart, freedom crosses
all boundries,it is respected all those who hold it
dear.So you see it is not the world goverment that
makes us one,It is FREEDOM that does that.

I'll :drunk: to that! Now all we need to do is "get that right" on the outside too :D Life is not so much fun to have to walk soft and carry a big stick, or frying pan :rolleyes: I'd rather not have to lock my doors or have to be vigilant in my environment for those who would relieve me of my freedoms ... and even life.

I believe that we are the majority in the world, those who value and respect the necessary rights freedoms we all need in place in order to survive and function as individuals within societies and countries, in the world.

I'm not putting down my frying pan though ... :D
