Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful. .... (Aldous Huxley)
Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right Forget about the ones who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.
This Native American folk song speaks of holding all creation sacred. It is written and sung by Ben Yahola, my cousin, in our native Mvskoke language. In English the song literally says: Staffs (flags, or the symbols of who we are) are to be held sacred. The earth is to be held sacred. Everything that was created, Our Ancestors, Warriors, and the Earth are sacred. From the CD: Sacred Sites Songs

We have many many challenges as Indian people, let’s not forget we are all in this together, and even one person can make a difference. We have set up this group on yahoo for anyone who wants to stay in the loop on these activities:
Between working every day and grandchildren, I attempt to stay involved in politics and American Indian issues, anything to uphold our rights to tribal sovereignty.
Am a person that enjoys life and loves to have fun. A woman that enjoys watching sports, especially football and basketball.
Tend to be a loner but am very happy alone.....and a Liberal too. Does that make me bad? LOL!!!

I once saw and heard a wolf, was he howling at the stars; No, I thought that night, he's crying to the man in the moon.
He was sad about the death of his mate, caught in a snare; Lost forever to the Spirit world, never more to be seen or heard.
The Alpha Male once so proud, now diminished by his loss; Resorts to almost humanlike behavior, by offering up a prayer.
The pups she once cared for and fed, whimpered their soft refrain; Were now the responsibility of another, whom he might learn to love.
All the others in the pack joined in his song, understanding and sharing; In his mournful and eerie cry, once again pledging their loyalty to him.
Natures once proud and abounding breeds, slowly but surely diminished; by a misunderstood and uncaring law, that they were dangerous to one and all.
From the crest of that proud vantage point, a wolf prayer was shared; Reminding me and others when all seems lost, we can Cry To The Man In The Moon.
Please take a moment to see the new updated information bullitin on the bullittin board reguarding the john wolf fund and his medical updated condition,,and has his mayo conformation letter. Thank you for your time so very much. I am trying so hard to save his life,please help me in this effort! May the angels above bless you always,and surround you with there love. Please help john find his wings so he may fly! Sending to you much peace,love and respect always.
Sincerely,Bobbi Wright sent to you from John
Aloft the wind I ride the night sky I see the world through a much different eye
Power, beauty Strength and grace I feel the spirits of ancestral space
Pride of herd Sisters and brothers I live ever watchful standing by others
A kaleidoscope of colors No two ever the same The short, the tall, the long of mane
I know the chance I know the fear I live on the edge for death crouches near
On my back I carry a load Through storm and calm Ever vigilant and bold
I have died in battle Killed by man Hunted by predator as I roamed the land
No more room Not enough grazing Captured, shot, sold by pound on bills of lading
Yet I survive Sometimes an insurmountable course I am feral, I am Mustang, I am Wild Horse
Greeting, I hope this finds u and yours wells and good. I wish u warmth, peace, harmony as the days ahead unfold. Take care and be safe my friend.......
Dear God: The lady reading this is beautiful, classy and strong and I love her friendship. Help her live her life to the fullest. Please promote her and cause her to excel above her expectations. Help her shine in the darkest places where it is impossible to love. Protect her at all times, lift her up when she needs you the most and let her know when she walks with you, she will always be safe.
Love you Girl!!!! Now you're on the clock.
In 9 minutes something will make you happy. But you have to tell 9 sisters you love them
Dear Santa, I'm older But, still believe in you (At least, I believe in The things you try, to do).
Maybe, I can't ask for A Tonka, or, a train. (But, if you'd bring one of them You know, I won't complain).
But, what I really wish for Is a special present Love that can't be "returned" Once it has been sent.
Everybody needs a little And some, need a lot But, if you get a tiny bit You still know what you got.
So Santa, drop a little Under each Christmas tree Then, all will get a present From what it's 'posed to be.
And if there is no tree For the alone, and poor When you get, to their place Just, drop, a little more.
John and I want to wish you the best for the Holiday Season!! Your friendship is the greatest gift we could have been given and are so thankful that you are a part of our lives! Wishing you a Merry Christmas and the Happiest of New Year's!
Thank you my wonderful friend, Thank you for being you, Thank you for being there for me, I will never forget your greatness and your heart, And how you helped save the Life of another! Thank you for saving me!
Love Always, John Wolf
PLEASE HELP SAVE OUR BROTHER'S AND SISTER'S!
The blood in my veins is that of yours, The air you breathe is the same as mine, I hunt to live, you hunt for sport, Yet our hearts are to beat as one, For when are hearts are in time, The world is at peace, Yet still you make my heart still, Until I may be let to breathe again, The world shall never be at rest. So let me breathe and roam the land free, Do you not see how alike we are? You and me? Just let me breathe, and be free.
