Transcending Barriers
This story hails from Australia, the sunburnt country, the land of sweeping plains, ragged mountain ranges, droughts and flooding rains.
We are all part of a Terran Tribe who’s home is the planet we call Earth. We are one and we are many. We share feelings, experiences, differences and stories.
It is Bunna, Moogoo Moogoo (To Western Australian Aboriginal Peoples, Burna is an indigenous word that encompasses The Land Burna” pronounced Burnna. and all that belong to it. (The land owns the people) The land and it’s history is known as Moogoo Moogoo which means a love story, ongoing spiritual and sacred.
To embrace life, land, and living as a love story would bring new meaning to us all as a people. Here we have a love story drenched in the ocean that has no meaning, it is what it is, beautiful, yet dangerous, destructive yet serene, powerful, yet gentle. It is Joy itself. It holds place for we who dance on its waves to our sacred song and music.
It is the language that transcends all barriers. This is the Moogoo Moogoo, the love story, the Burna, the land, The dance and the song. This is Australia.
Epicsurf.com.au would like to recognize it’s indigenous peoples and their land and give thanks for the opportunity to enjoy and share in their Burna.
