Jon J McGraw : Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 15 "Today, what is important for us is to realize that the old sacred ways are correct, and that if we do not follow them we will be lost and without a guide." --Thomas Yellowtail, CROW A long time ago the Creator gave to the people all the knowledge on how we should live and conduct ourselves. The Native people have been influenced by outside "tribes" who don't know about the Sacred Way. Our Elders still know about the old sacred ways. We need to consult and talk to them before it's too late. Every family needs to seriously evaluate whether they are living according to the old knowledge. If we are fault finding, putting one another down, being selfish, being violent to our spouses or children, if we are cheating and being dishonest, then we are not living the old Sacred Way. The old way is about respect, love, forgiveness and sharing. Great Spirt, today, teach me the old Sacred Way you taught my ancestors.

I wish that the Great Spirit could teach the Old Sacred Way to all the people in the world... so that it would be a really nicer place... we terribly need some of its wisdom down here...
