Re:Ash
Not so sure I would be a leader..LOL but I will think on what you have spoken here about..I agree it would be a good thing to do..Maybe I should write a group of poems on these very subjects to help clarify the way they look at the world..While starting each poem as I did here with a quote..What do you think? You have given me much to think about..Thank you my friend!

I am of the Oglala band of Lakota with Cherokee mixed in and a lot of European nations thrown into the mix...I am a Northern tribe..It is alright...I have been learning a lot about my people as well..I find that we never stop learning...It seems to be part of life..I thank you much for the wonderful words you have written..I promise more creation stories as I edit them a bit more...in the words of my people I say Palimaya (thank you!)

I can see you are going to be one of the leaders....
in this seventh generation, my dear dear friend Marion..u should really look into going on some radio talk show to read some of this wisdom out loud to the world..but first things first..research, write, publish..then talk..many people do the last first and never the formers :)! - Ash

We could all learn something by paying closer attention to the "sacred hoop" - I love this concept and will carry it with me today. Thank you.

This was a wonderful write. It always amazes me how in tune native americans are to nature and everything else around them. I'm not very knowledgeable, but I did have a wonderful native american professor in college years ago who opened my eyes to everything, and I became a die hard fan of the trickster. LOL. Really though, this was quite beautiful and made me feel like going outside just to sit and listen.

Wow Marion, that is so interesting, and it makes so much sense. Your people are truly a wise nation. I thoroughly enjoyed the story I purchased from you and I can not wait for more to come. By the way, which Nation are you from? Down here in Florida we have the Seminoles but I guess you are from up North somewhere. Please forgive my ignorance but I really don't know a lot about Native Americans...something I intend to remedy. Take care of you and be well.
