Live simply
Love generously
Care deeply
Speak kindly
Leave the rest to God
You are the miracle, my friend
Just as I am
Your life can either shine a light
or cast a shadow.

The Soul would have
no rainbow,
if the eyes
had no tears

~ Indian Prayer ~
Oh Great Spirit, Whose Voice I Hear in the wind. Whose breath gives life to the world, hear me. I come to you as one of your many children, I am small and weak, I need your strength and wisdom.
May I walk in beauty, make my eyes behold the red and purple sunset, make my hands respect the things that you have made, and my ears sharp to hear your voice. Make me wise so that I may know the things that you have taught your children, the lessons that you have hidden in every leaf and rock. Make me strong...not to be superior to my brothers but to be able to fight my greatest enemy.. myself. Make me ever ready to come to you with straight eyes so that when life fades as the faded sunset, my spirit will come to you without shame."

One evening an old Cherokee Indian told his grandson about a "battle" that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between 2 "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance,
self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride,
superiority, and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace,
love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy,
generosity, truth, compassion and faith" The grandson thought about
it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:
"Which wolf wins ?" The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

~ Mother Earth ~
The Earth is our Mother, care for her.
Honor all your relations.
Open your heart and soul to the Great Spirit.
All life is sacred; treat all beings with respect.
Take from the Earth what is needed and Nothing more.
Do what needs to be done for the good of all.
Give constant thanks to the Great Spirit for each new day.
Speak the truth; but only of the good in others.
Follow the rhythms of nature; rise and fall with the sun.
Enjoy life's journey, but leave no tracks.

~ Our Mirror ~
The good you find in others, is in you too.
The faults you find in others, are your faults as well.
After all, to recognize something you must know it.
The possibilities you see in others, are possible for you as well.
The beauty you see around you, is your beauty.
The world around you is a reflection, a mirror showing you the person you are.
To change your world, you must change yourself.
To blame and complain will only make matters worse.
Whatever you care about,
is your responsibility.
What you see in others, shows you yourself.
See the best in others, and you will be your best.
Give to others, and you give to yourself.
Appreciate beauty, and you will be beautiful.
Admire creativity, and you will be creative.
Love, and you will be loved.
Seek to understand, and you will be understood.
Listen, and your voice will be heard.
Teach, and you will learn.
Show your best face to the mirror, and you'll be happy with the face looking back at you.
Here's my thing; In an effort to keep my eyes open, I am trying to open the eyes of others, not only with my "Dystonia Awareness" Mission by "Putting A Face On Dystonia",but to the dangers of Perfumes and other smell good products as well. More specificly, the effects they have on the human body, Your body and every other body whose paths You cross, specially those of us who suffer from MCS. The world can not change, what the world does not know. Still the same, the world must be willing to change ... once it does know.
