Grandmother once said " You can tell the true chief or medicine person. They are the ones who have the least because they give away more then they can."

The women of the Seneca when choosing a traditional leader, never allowed the men to know who was being considered. From discussions I heard when Uncle Bob passed and they were looking for another Big Tree or peace chief, they thought of who was most respectful to the children and elders, who actually sought the advice of his mother, wife and sisters on important decisions and who showed in his actions that what he said and what he did were the same. Maybe we need to start using the same standards in choosing our leaders.

Everything that has being, including rocks, grass and the invisible creatures all have life and purpose. Have you ever leaned against a tree or rock and listened to the wisdom which they have to share?

July 21st.

It is time for straight talk by all mankind. It is time for government to be honest with it's people. It is time for religious leaders to admit they twist their words to control their people. It is time for educators to admit they slant their teachings to control others. It is time to admit we are not honest with each other, and speak straight to all.

If not today, when?

When ever you feel the prompting to help someone, standing up against injustice or comforting another you are being prompted by the part of you connected with Great Mystery.

When you are angry or disappointed with someone walk away until you can talk to them with respect. Do so because they are also a part of Great Mystery
