Feeling worthless 😪

[Yuinblackduck73]

Wallawani, which means hello in my language Dhurga. Thanks for the info about yarning space 😀 it's hard for me with my mental illness been hiding it from some mob. And I would love to share my knowledge about culture with you.

Actually @Yuinblackduck73 I assumed you were Yuin from your posting name. Yes our languages Dharawal and Dhurga are from the same language group Yuin 

Yeah, I understand about other mob knowing.

It's ok, I just thought I'd let you know about Yarning Space

I do not currently live on country but nearby so I can go there several times per year. 

I have been to Yuin of course - lovely country. 

What is the Yuin totem?

Dharawal is humpback whale and I'm am loving seeing lots of videos of Burri Burri on Tv etc due to the migration

[Yuinblackduck73]

Umbarra is the totem (black duck)

Nice @Yuinblackduck73 now I fully understand your forums name.

Do you see many umbarra these days?

[Yuinblackduck73]

I'm currently in the Hunter Valley living, don't live on country but our mother Mountain Gulaga is calling me home. Plenty of umbarras on our lake where I grew up. I miss that place

Sorry @Yuinblackduck73 I did not see your post.

Oh so you are in Wonaruah, Awabakal or Worimi country?

I hope you have a chance to get back to Yuin as much as possible.

What type of art do you do painting, weaving, sculpture etc?

Hi there @Till23 @Yuinblackduck73 @Lapis_Anteater ,

Great to see you all here.

@Yuinblackduck73 , how have things been for you? I'm mindful that things have been very tough.

@Till23 , glad to see you. Looking forward to connecting more with you.

@Lapis_Anteater , so lovely to meet you!

Hi @tyme yes it would be nice to connect more, but I feel this is Yuinblackduck73 thread and I don't want to talk about me on here. I'm just mindful of other people's spaces

Hope you are well @Yuinblackduck73 

[tyme]

Absolutely @Till23 . Totally hear you.

Just taking one step at a time, I'm tired of feeling like this. Thank you for caring and kindness
