.Indian Eyes
When you look at me what do you see? Does your mind start to wonder who might this be?
Can you look into my eyes and see my pain?
Do you see how I stand with pride?
Do you see how my life has been pushed aside?
Can you feel any of what is deep in my soul?
Can you see the Warrior with the wisdom which he beholds?
If you would stop for a moment and look deep within
You can feel the spirits that rise within.
If you stopped for a moment you could see through my eyes
That once wondrous world that has been tossed aside.
If you stopped for a moment you might feel the fears
From those that once traveled the trail of tears.
For I am not the Indian you learned about in school.
I am not the Indian who you portrayed as a fool.
I am not the Indian from your western films
But I am the Indian who lost by your rules.
If you could just take a moment and ask me why,
You would understand life through my Indian eyes.

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect. • We are a part of the earth and it is part of us ~ Chief Seattle~
It does not require many words to speak the truth. ~Cheif Joseph~ Nez Perce
The white man's police have protected us only as well as the feathers of a bird protect it from the frosts of winter.
Crowfoot, Blackfoot Warrior
The Dolphin creates this ring of air for it's play, is not The Creator Awsome!!!!
MY FAVORITE FOOD
All types of bread and cheeses!
O' GREAT SPIRIT:
Help me always to speak the truth quietly,
to listen with an open mind when others speak,
and to remember the peace
that may be found in silence.
As I lay quitely watching the early morning
sun dance across my bedroom floor,
My mind roams back to the
old rugged door,
I had pushed and pushed
but to no availe,
It was closed so very tight,
as if driven with
thousands of nails.
I lamanated my soul would
never take flight,
My heart wanting to
give up the fight.
Then I was blessed by Creator
who has sent me one,
that gave me the courage
to let in the sun!!!!

Ant
Patience and Hard Work
It has been noted that an ant can carry a twig or leaf over 100 miles just to get it back to the anthill. In Africa, ants have been known to strip a forest bare. It is a potent example of the "collective mind" as it carries out its task for the Queen and the colony. Patience has its rewards, and the person with Ant medicine trusts, that at the end of the day, all their hard work will pay off.
I am the proud mother of two grownchildren, and two beautiful grandaughters!! I am of Blackfoot descent!!!! Just a human being trying to tread soflty on Our Mother Earth!!!!
You are a Shamanic Empath.
You are at one with nature and
can speak with animal/plant life.
Your powers come from the Sun &
the Moon, and the elements.
The weather moves
with your mind
and all of nature
is at your beck and call.
John Trudell_ Earth the Living Entity
You are intuitive and sensitive.
You pay close attention to your subconscious and your dreams.
You embrace your fears and the darker side of life.
It's easy for you to be detached
and objective when you need to be.
You are able to let go easily.
You don't get attached to much.
And considering how often
you change course,
people shouldn't get too attached to you.
EARTH DAY-EVERYDAY!!!!
These tags were gifted to me by a very special and wise friend and have much meaning for me!!!!
Thank you niscunnie nitisin.
What kind of soul do you have??? (Anime pics)
You scored as a calm
You are calm. You look at things from every perspective before you come to a conclusion. You can have fun going out partying or just sit back and read a book. People tend to like you right away because of how well you take things good and bad. You believe that if you wait you will be rewarded.
WHAT I LIKE
People who possess Integrity!!
Beavers are creatures of the water the element associated with the subconscious
This is where hidden knowledge
and forgotten dreams are stored
A powerful totem to have
the beaver reminds us
to live our dreams and
shows us how to manifest
them using the resources available
Beavers have a gentle nature and
are very industrious
Crow....are you "cawing", so I may know, the secrets of balance, within my soul? Or are you sending your sacred "caw", just to remind me of Universal Law?
Crow knows, the unknowable mysteries of Creation and is the keeper of all Sacred Law!!!!
This was gifted to me by a friend and a very courages Woman!!
Do Not Judge a Book By It's Cover!!!!
