Will following bloodlines give me sense of belonging?

Will history remind me of inherent practical life skills in all of us?

How do i find a sense of place in this country where the right to land has been placed out of my reach? Following my bloodlines back to a mythical time where we as a people were connected to the land and were more self reliant feels temporarily empowering.

if i tug on that thread will that dream disintegrate or consolidate?
