Tribal quotes 06
The human being’s freedom is in the inner head.
Human beings shape their destiny according to the relationship between the outer and inner head.

Two of our greatest mental aspects as human beings are that of memory and imagination. They allow for us to carry our ancestral wisdom and to think of ways to improve what is not to our liking. But they can also serve as our greatest enemies. A memory may keep you from trying something again or deter you from engaging something new due to what you imagine going wrong.
In our Gye Nyame tribe, we pledge to go beyond all our self imposed limitations. We also have this expression of “Make it happen!” This means that we are not to be limited by our conditions. We are to focus on all the opportunities and resources around us to bring into being what is needed.
An example of this was when we had a camping trip where we needed a new grill. We put the call out for donations for a new grill, and the family responded to the extent that we returned the excess monies to the contributors.
Lastly, I use an arithmetic example with numbers to express freedom of the inner head. But I leave you with this: do not let your memories and imaginings hinder you to what could be!
