Today I got reminded of a truth which I must share. When you harbor
fear, resentment, hate or any of the negative emotions, you are as sick
as if you had cancer, or any other disease. Until you are ready to give
up any negativity you can not be cured of anything brought on by it. It
does not affect the people who the negativity is directed at but the
person who harbors the negativity.
Please be ready to change yourself if you are going to heal yourself.

Elders Wisdom: "I don't care what religion you follow. I don't care what politics you espouse. As long as you care for and protect other life forms beside two legged, as long as you speak for those who have no voice, as long as you stand against war for any reason you are doing the job the two legged were put on Mother Earth to do". Uncle Gus to a hippie who stopped him on his daily walk one day. Shortly before he passed on.

In most native communities the rights of children under six are
protected by the parents and other parents who have such children.
Children be from six to twelve have a right to speak but are protected
by both parents and the elders. Once a boy or girl reaches thirteen they
become fully able to decide for them self. At that time they join in the
councils, speak for them self and are also liable for their actions.
This is a basic right of all children.
1: Freedom from violence both from governments and each other.
This includes wars, executions and use of troops or police to punish protesters.
All use of force by the police should be investigated by a grand jury or similar Judicial tribunal not related to or beholden to the police.
2: A world wide guarantee of food, clothing, medicine and shelter at least at a minimum level for all people.
3: A guarantee of education for all men and women. This includes the teaching of critical thinking. Especially critical thinking which is the capability of understanding and rejecting government or employers actions. This education must be from cradle to grave and controlled by the people affected. It is not just educating to make better employees who perform without asking questions. It must also be education in the humanities and arts.
4: Freedom to be included in government decisions. If nothing less then local councils who have the right to propose better solutions for them self. This must also include the right of prisoners to ask for and suggest better treatment and rehabilitation.
5: Uniformly applied laws. No more laws aimed at minorities. If the police are going to stop and frisk in a Black. Asian, Hispanic or native neighborhood it must also be equally applied to Wall Street or K Street or the gated communities.
6: Freedom to participate in or reject religion based on your choice and nothing but your choice. No laws may be based on religious standards but all laws must be uniform in application.
7: The right of minorities and tribal units to self government, based on the standards of the tribe. However that tribe also has the power to try and punish infractions against it or it's people the same as any other government and this includes infractions by a colonizing government.
8: The right of every member of society to meaningful and rewarding employment. Be it a Medical Doctor, police officer, lawyer, artist or farmer. Society is built not on uniformity of work and rewards but on diversity and each contributing as she/he is capable.
9: All laws must be written not in legalize but in the plain language understood by everyone. Corporations may be formed for limited time and specific purpose which must include a public interest. Any corporation which wishes to extend the time must prove additional public good.
10: Add your ideas here and send them on.

No matter how good or bad your health, No matter how rich or poor you
are, As long as you woke up this morning and are able to communicate
with others you still have a purpose here on Turtle Island. You now can
try to make life better for all my relations, or you can fail at the
most important thing you can do in this lifetime. Maybe it's someone
else who will finish what you start, it's up to you to get started.

If the United States was a person he/she would need help. Anyone or any
thing that reacts only with anger toward others or other things is far from balanced.
