It's what's in the heart
The love for the land, the respect for it,
Those who inhabit it
And the respect and acknowledgement of
The Spirits and Elders
That is what it is to be INDIAN!
The first peace which is most important, is that which comes from within the Souls of people when they realise their relationship, their ONENESS with the Universe and all its powers, and when they realise that at the centre of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this centre is everywhere, it is within each of us...Black Elk, Oglala Sioux
May we all walk together in peace...
Great Spirit of the Wolf, grant this prayer..that all can live as one with nature and that peace reign everywhere.
Great Spirit, open their hearts so we may teach them the way.
May the sun, bring you new energy by day,
May the moon softly restore you by night
May the rain wash away your worries
May the breeze blow new strength into your being
May you walk gently through the world and know its beauty all the days of your life....Apache Blessing
It is the spirit from within that defines us.
Let us walk softly on the earth with all living beings great and small, remembering as we go that one God, kind and wise, created all.
Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.
If the eyes had no tears, the Soul would have no rainbow...Native American proverb
If you talk with animals they will talk with you and you will know each other.
If you will not talk to them you will not know them and what you do not know you will fear.
What one fears one destroys...Chief Dan George
Your true strength lies within you.
When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the morning light, for your life and strength. Give thanks for your food and the joy of living.
If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies within yourself..Shawnee
BLESSING...
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back
May the sunshine warm your face
and the rain falls soft upon your fields
and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand...
Why we dance?...by Marijo Moore
To dance is to pray
To pray is to heal
To heal is to give
To give is to live
To live is to dance
If a white army battles Indians and wins, it is called a great victory. But if it loses, then it is call a massacre...Shawnee
Don't let yesterday use up too much of today..Cherokee Indian Proverb
The best and most beautiful things must be felt with the heart...
When your dreams start to seem impossible and roadblocks are all you see, look beyond all the problems that you face and focus on the possibilities. Don't limit your thoughts to the present, or solutions you have learnt from the past. Remember to keep looking forward., you may find the answer at last.
It is you whom determines your future, how your journey thru tomorrow will be. To fill all your days with adventure, dare to see what no one dares to see. So never let obstacles stop you or keep you from doing your part. Have faith that your dreams are all possible if you truly believe in your heart...
Peace, love and respect
May their spirits guide your path.
Great Spirit..give us wisdom to walk the true path
Life, Death, Rebirth
Some people no matter how old they get, never lose their beauty.
They merely move it from their faces into their hearts.
Treat the earth well. It was not given to yo by your parents. It was loaned to you by your children.
We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors but borrow it from our children..Native American proverb
- A Cherokee blessing -
May the warm winds of heaven blow softly on your home,
And the Great Spirit, bless all who enter there.
May you moccasins make happy tracks in the snows
And may the rainbow always touch your shoulders.
