I watched the movie Smoke Signals (1998) on DVD. It was my second time to watch it.
My first time was back in 1999. I watched it at the theater in Japan. Since this movie was not a big title, I needed to go to the theater in the bigger city.
I went to the theater alone. Simply because I wanted to weep whenever I wanted, without feeling embarrassed to my company.
I shed tears at the scenery where the main character, Victor, run through 20 miles to get some help after he had a car accident. While he was running, he had flash backs of the memories with his late dad. When his physical body almost reached its limitation, he saw a hallucinated image of his late father, holding his son’s body with his both arms. In the reality, it was a road worker man who happened to be there.
I was touched at this scenery. I know spirits can send earth angels whenever they want to support their loved ones. I believe it was his late father who sent the earth angel to help his son.
At that time I experienced many miracles to save my life. Now I know it was my family spirits who sent me many earth angels, so that I could fully believe in them. With their support, I had come to be able to believe in me.

Fast-forwarding to current year, in 2019, while watching the same movie, I shed tears at the different scenery.
It was the scenery where the police officer accused Victor for the car accident. The police officer believed the other party of the car accident. The other party lied that Victor was drunk and driving. It was a stereotyped image toward Native Americans. Both of the police officer and other party were White.
It was just one scenery, but it touched my soul. I could not control my tears falling down. It was not physical me, but my soul, who was shedding tears.
My soul remembered these kinds of discrimination over and over again in my past lives. These uncomfortable experiences were imprinted in my soul.
In this lifetime, I am a foreigner in this country. I experience racial discrimination in the daily basis, which I never experienced while living in Japan.
Let’s face to the reality.
Even though we are living in the new era; we are not in 1800s nor 1900s anymore, racial discrimination is still going on in this country.
I believe there are things each one of us can do to fix it.
***
Each one of us should think about our desires.
Each one of us should pray for our desires.
Each one of us should discuss about our desires with others.
Each one of us should take a small action every day.
Because I want to change the bad habit.
Because I want peace between all the races.
Because I want to live in the world where everybody is nice and kind to each other.
As my baby step, I keep myself being trustworthy.
As my baby step, I keep myself being nice and kind to others.
As my baby step, I keep speaking up about my desires.
