The Crow Says

The way the crows gather from all over the city into a single stream
of dark mass just before the sunset is a sight to be seen and
experienced in Vancouver city. While I have to dig deep inside myself
to face a group of people called the twelve tribes. http://www.twelvetribes.com/

Unshaven faces with their woman following them in faces untouched by
makeup, they almost remind me of my days in in Assam filled with
people teeming with life. They become quite attractive in contrast to
the world around them where everybody is trying to be different. Check
print shirts and dark pants with leather shoes and woman with long
hair and skirts. They all look the same, in fact like we do in India
where fashion is not a way of life but a way to blend into other
people. The simplicity and structured family makes them interesting
for me but not something out of common.

While they are really unique to environment here. They simplicity is
something which is unheard of here while their structure family system
without any conditions is huge affair by western standards. Nobody has
ever heard of a group having no individual bank account but a single
family account. And sell it well too, present themselves through their
publicity material in extreme odd places where they will find people
who are at crossroads or self doubt to recruit.
