TODAY’S LIFE LESSON: acknowledges that we are far enough awake and aware to realize the what happens to one of us can happen to all of us. What is tolerated in one area can be duplicated in another – and what is accepted as normal will set the standard by which all other standards are raised or lowered.
The experiences of our indigenous peoples have taught us to be willing to take a stand for what is morally, ethically and spiritually true by peacefully holding space while the tides of fury are all around. The most powerful way of ending an era of imbalances, unfairness and a blatant disregard for fairness is to simply lay down our swords and arrows and hold a silent vigil for peace. The least amount of resistance, with the highest level of integrity.
Our hearts and kindred spirit goes out to the souls who have stood their ground and held their space even though they have been persecuted, beaten, shot and harmed – they stand by their faith and hold the space. May there be more of us willing to do just that!
HEAD= the wisdom we carry through many trials and tribulations
HEART= the truth about balance and consciously choosing it
HEARTH= the space and place we call home where we face our foes and fears with faith.
