Lakota Instructions for Living
Friend do it this way – that is,whatever you do in life,
do the very best you can
with both your heart and mind.
And if you do it that way,
the Power Of The Universe
will come to your assistance,
if your heart and mind are in Unity. When one sits in the Hoop Of The People,
one must be responsible because
All of Creation is related.
And the hurt of one is the hurt of all.
And whatever we do effects everything in the universe.
If you do it that way – that is,
if you truly join your heart and mind
as One – whatever you ask for,
that’s the Way It’s Going To Be.
And the honor of one is the honor of all. Passed down from White Buffalo Calf Woman Image: Early one morning, with Polly listening in…riverearth.com Emotional Fitness Thought
Go and walk under the stars, sit in the quiet of a forest, or walk on a beach. We might be smaller than flickering spark rising to the sky, or a falling pine needle, or a grain of sand. Still we are all part of the wonder of creation.
Thank You For All You Do

So beautiful, Katherine. Thanks for sharing it.
This is so beautiful! I wish more of us walked through life this way. I’ll try to at least follow this path myself. Thank you for the wise inspiration, Katherine.
