In beauty may I walk;
With beauty before me, may I walk;
With beauty above me, may I walk;
With beauty below me, may I walk;
With beauty all around me, may I walk;
In beauty, may my walk be finished;
In beauty, may my walk be finished.

This is why we call the sun, Father Sun. Father Sun shines life on Mother Earth and from this Father and Mother all life forms exist and continue to reproduce. The Sun shines on all; it is not selective. We should not allow anything to block the Sun from shining on the Earth. We must not pollute the air because the pollutants block the light of life to the Earth. If the Earth cannot receive this light, then life will start to be affected. We must live in harmony with the Sun and Earth. Otherwise, we are harming ourselves.

My Creator, give me the wisdom to live in harmony with all things.

Oh Great Spirit,~ keep me awake today.
Let me hear the voices of our ancestors...
let me hear the voices of the Grandfathers.
Because everybody is doing it doesn't make
things right.
Let me hear the truth today and become a
coyote for the people.
Give me the courage to be willing to be different.
Let me walk straight on the Red Road.

"These ( sacred ) ceremonies do not belong to Indians alone, they can be done by all who have the right attitude....and who are honest and sincere about their beliefs in Wakan Tanka ( Great Spirit ) and follow the rules" "Survival of the world depends on our sharing what we have, and working together. If we don't, the whole world will die. First the planet, and next the people" ~Fools Crow~

These are the End times and the people must know the truth, share what we have taught you.
There can be no more secrets now if we are to survive as a thinking species through these times."
"This," they say, "must be done because the dream of humanity can only be preserved through the combined efforts of all peoples, and the joining and merging of all cultures into a oneness."

Today! The Cherokee People are celebrating our Mid-Winter Feast.

This is the cleaning time from the North so we can prepare for the new life coming to us in the Spring from the East.

This is one of our traditional feasts that we celebrate every year at the time the Non Indigenous people call the Winter Solstice.

I would also like to wish the Non-traditional people on here a Happy Holiday season and the best for your New Year. Our Ahni Gaduwa (Cherokee) people celebrate our New Year the first two weeks of October.


 

(Thank you and until we meet again,)

 

Sgi, ale donadagahv'i,

Mashu and David Son of Lone Wolf





I watched her in the woods circling a red cedar not much taller than she was. It was her gift back to the woods that had given her so much peace and comfort - even when life outside the woods could be trying. She laid garlands of popcorn and cranberries over the sturdy limbs along with burr acorns and suet in mesh bags. Scattered beneath the tree were sunflower seeds and millet that cardinals and would attract unusual guests - miniature marshmallows were scattered in and around the tree, a sweet touch for woodland friends. A sweet touch, the best part of the gift. She gave, and peace would be given back to her.

~ Sometimes we prayed in silence; sometimes each one prayed aloud; sometimes an aged person prayed for all of us. ~

Elder's Meditation of the Day - December 18


"Parents have to demonstrate the value of trust, respect and honor."


Haida Gwaii, Traditional Circle of Elders


Children learn more by watching than by listening. If we want our children to understand and value trust, they know it by watching how adults live their lives! If we want the children to be respectful, they will observe what the adults do and say to each other. We need to walk our talk. We need to remember the children are watching.


Grandfather, help me learn these important values: Trust, Respect and Honor.
