" The way we grow up as Natives is that we take that pain and weave it into our lives. We welcome the pain in, because there’s nothing you can do to change it, and by its very existence, the pain has already changed you. We take the pain in, because there is no way you can really compartmentalize or segregate that pain. You have to create the harmony of the good and the bad and say to yourself: the good and the bad come together. The bad stuff happened, it did, but it doesn’t destroy who I am at my core. "
