How much do you know about your ancestors? How relevant is the words and actions of those ancestors and how do they relate to the world today? Does a life where we are part of nature no better then any other animal have any worth in modern society and if so how? Does a life that looked back 11 generations and looked forward 11 generations have any meaning to you? How could you incorporate the wisdom from 11 generations ago into daily life and pass it on to the next 11 generations?
These are questions I can not answer for you, though I can give you some of the wisdom passed on to me. Let me know your answers and perhaps even help each other in developing answers for each other.

Tonight is the sacred fire in preparation for the sunrise Earth Healing Ceremony. The Sacred fire is lit at sunset and from then until Midnight is used to take away the bad which has fallen on all of us during the last 3 months. From Midnight until dawn, the fire is given our hopes and dreams for the next three months.

Only
by working together for common goals may we change the World. Only by
sharing our dreams for the next seven generations may we build the
world that we dream of. Remember each of has only a part of the dream
so talk to others about your dream and incorporate the portions of
the dreams they have into your's.

You wish to provide for yourself in times of scarcity? First learn to hunt, for the game including rabbits and groundhog will fill you. Then learn what wild plants are good to eat near your home, they will fill your belly even better. Tyhen learn what wild plants nearby can be used as medicine and how to use them. In that way you will be stronger, better fed and healthier then you are today.

Elders Wisdom Sep. 7th. 2014
I Am A
Peacemaker
I seek to
resolve conflict. I seek to end wars. I work to end discrimination.
Above all I value peace and
good will
among humankind. I place my self between the warriors. I speak for
those who have no
voice. I
stand for the rights of all living things. Above all else I serve to
bring both outer and inner
peace to
everyone I meet.
It was said
“blessed be the peacemakers for they shall be called the children
of God.”
I would
rather be called some one who cares.
