Regarding streams, pelt working, I'm sorry

General
So far away, My mind flies to the moon.
Far, far away, I can see what happens soon.
And what's most important.

I will not be streaming any more streams that deal with the working of pelts in raw stages or in conditioning stages. I know I told a few of you that I would share streams of me working with pelts as far as fleshing, tanning, reforming/rehydrating, and treating. Something inside of me really wants to share these processes to guide new comers to the practice. But a larger part of my view these processes as too personal to openly share them with the world.
I will still offer as much guidance as I can but the pelt working is something too personal, I feel, than I should be streaming on the internet. I realize this now and I'm sorry to anyone who was looking forward to this weeks production schedule (I was going to stream at least 2 projects involving pelts)
Please forgive me, it's just something I cannot do without cheapening the practice in my own beliefs. To me it would be like becoming a televangelist, parading my PERSONAL beliefs open to the world and putting them out on exhibit as entertainment. Not only would it be disrespectful to my culture but also the animals I'm working with.
This really may sound silly to some people and I DO respect that opinion, but I also try to respect opinions and beliefs others have even if they contradict my own. I do apologize again, and hope you can understand.
It really wasn't something I should have offered in the first place, I see that now, this is a part of growing up, something we're never really done with. Please forgive me. I will still offer tips to people if anyone has questions. I really do hope all of you can understand.

I do feel a little bad since I know a few people were looking forward to it, but I'll still offer as much knowledge as I can.
