For those of you who don't know Patricia Randolf, she is a tireless advocate for rights for all our relations...she has a column in a Wisconsin paper that is so very well worth the read and follow. I hope each of you welcomes her as a sister to this wonderful organization. She touches life with a voice for those who have no human voice nor a vote as to what happens to them. Hope each of you has had a good day and if it has been a bit rough, always remember the great gift you get to see when you…

With the winds of Irene affecting so many, I would like to share an upside of the Wind Spirits if I may....
Wind Spirits of Our Soul
(lessons from Bishop and Lame Coyote)
Set your face to western winds
Rushing from tall mountain peaks
Strong and furious
Soft and gentle
Singers of a peace
Seldom found with humans
Movement of a spirit
Refreshing the soul
Speakers of no lies
Sharing only…

I found this poem and want to share it. It was written by Eleanor Farjeon.
Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair,
Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge,
Open drawer, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do,
Fitted in a cardboard box, in a cupboard with your frocks
Anywhere! They don't care! Cats sleep anywhere.

- What a funny squirrel! I showed Marianne the picture on a magazine.
- Oh, don´t talk about squirrels… she sighed.
- Why?
- Our neighbor isn´t talking to us.
- What? Again? What this time? Something to do with squirrels?
- Oh yes.
- Let´s hear it!
- All right. The other day we were a bit tired and had a nap after I had done the laundry, and before it was time to start preparing dinner. Well - I was just about to fall asleep when…

A woman goes into Cabela's to buy a rod and reel for her grandson's birthday. She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs
one and
goes over to the counter.
A Cabela's associate is standing there wearing dark shades. She says, 'Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod and
reel?'
He says, 'Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on the counter,…

As some of you know, I have on occasion written about what it was like for me to grow up in a place I still believe was "Normal"....I have been told by well meaning acquaintances and friends who think that Normal is and was a long way from where I called home..
Typical shrink oriented nabobs, that had never walked a mile in my Converse high tops..so who were they to try to understand.?.I believe every one of us…

Osda Sunalei (good morning) All,
I would like to share something I wrote some years ago to start your New day with you if I may
,
Kindness
Softly, like the gentle breath of Creator
who whispers upon Wind Spirits
Gently, as the soft petal of a violet
that caresses an infant’s cheek
Refreshing as the cooling mist
from a clear running waterfall
With compassion it begins to heal
those who are in pain
A…

Wolves
Drums pound as gourd rattles shake in rhythm
with the joyous heart of Earth Mother
Spirits of Earth and Sky loudly rejoice
at the birthing of new Wolf pups
Tiny new lives beginning in innocence
their eyes closed to what might be
Gently, as the caress of a Butterfly
Wind Spirits stroke their fur
Sleeping pups, dreaming dreams
of ancestors roaming free
Prairies, mountains, valleys, and streams
were once a home…

Of Wolves and Humans
(Waya...that voice in the distant wind which stirs the primal birth path of life's mystique...3 Hawks)
Many of you may never see any of my family in our natural home nor enjoy the thrill of listening to our sacred song as we walk upon the beautiful face of our Earth Mother.
Once, our home was from horizon to horizon in this…

The Anishinabek Nation is mourning its grandfather, William Commanda, who passed away on August 2 at age 97.
“He was a gift to the Algonquin people and an important figure for all First Nations people. It is a sad day when our elders pass, and he will be remembered by many,” said Grand Council Chief Patrick Madahbee in a release to the media.
Born on November 11, 1913, Ojigkwanong, as he was named, was the…
