Really. Don't American Indians have symbolic importance applied to quills?

Especially as women, caretakers and those who are required to nurture others either by choice or expectation. There is no need to torture yourself. I can see working through Xhit but in the end how we treat ourself is overlooked because we don't know how. Self preservation is different than selfishness.
