Two Visions

A true Lakota story on two visions. Two elders had different visions with different outcomes for the same tribe. One vision showed total destruction of their people. One vision showed harmony and growth for their people. So which vision turned out to be true? The answer is both. Both visions became true. It boiled down to what the people believed, as in "word becomes flesh". The same principle applies to the deaf community. The video is subtitled for all to enjoy.

I wanted to say that I've been watching your videos, digging up your information for a while now, with the intent of parodying you in a future episode of my upcoming series.

However, I've come to respect you and your insights. I might not agree with all of your views, and am a bit offended by a few of them. But there are grains of truth within your vlogs.

I especially liked this one - you really hit the nail on the head there. You've got this charisma, one to love and hate at the same time...

@DeafBasement Thank you for stopping by. Believe me... you're not the only one with such sentiments toward me. I'm loved by many and hated by many. It's a price I pay for being a controversial v/blogger that I am and I understand this. I don't expect everybody to agree with me and that's a good thing. I'm merely sharing how I see things, for whatever they're worth. In essence, I love to make people think outside of their box and I know it rattles some people's nerve. Oh well. Thanks again.

@theHolism I'm pretty much aware of the controversy you have to face, in light of differing opinions.

I just say this: who cares? This is a free country, and you have every right to express yourself... whether it is tasteful or distasteful to certain viewers.

I'm still working on my first episode, and I expect some adverse reactions to it. That's to be expected.

I say that every voice matters. Yours and mine.

@DeafBasement That's right. Thank you for sparing me this much space. Appreciate it. Looking forward to your video.  Take care.

It also is called Law of Attraction. Do not think about what you do not want but do think about what you want. Thank you for making this wise video.
