so I following it to your website and I’m drawn in immediately. I’m looking at your amazing mother and the whole time, my mind keeps flashing to my medicine that I just received out of the jungle. You talk about oje and mention Ron–duh, my medicine is from Ron.

I love your aesthetics.

Maybe someday we will see each other in the in the jungle someday.

peace,
Julia

Hi Julia, glad you liked it :-) Yes, Ron is making good medicine and is my preferred source at the moment. The Oje wasn’t from Ron, just the knowledge of how to use it.
Love and Light
