Just a gentle reminder that each bead, each thread from their sacred woven cloth, the intricacy of their headgear, each bear MEANING and significance.
A reminder that the indigenous people are the ones who are born into a lineage of wealth carrying with them the teachings of their ancestors, and that wealth comes in the form of wisdom and connection to this beautiful planet of ours, the wisdom that you and I may have forgotten.
Here are a few strong warriors who bring with them that wealth of knowledge wherever they go. With their messages strong so you and I can listen and discover more about US. ALL OF US.
I am from Sarawak and have Sabahan familial ties and I too carry an immense pride with me during my travels around the world. In whatever way I can. Through my songs, through the accessories I wear that were given to me, through my bright eyes whenever I speak about where I was born.
These beautiful Bornean women make me prouder everyday. Seeing their journey into full force and bloom.
I will not speak unkindly here about the unkind words someone has placed on the peoples’ sacred garment (coz I expressed most of it on Twitter). But I do hope this has all been a learning journey for us all.
