 The Sacredness of Nature

15 Traditional Native American Beliefs That Survived ColonizationHonoring the sacred interconnectedness of land, life, and spirit in Native American traditions. Photo by: ChatGPT
For countless Native American nations, the land is not just a resource—it is alive and sacred. Plants, animals, rivers, and mountains are regarded as spiritual relatives and caretakers. Despite colonization, this eco-centric worldview has endured, influencing environmental stewardship and conservation efforts today. As  many tribes continue to honor the interconnectedness of all life, ensuring respect for the land remains at the heart of their spiritual practice.

The Great Spirit

Many Native American tribes believe in a Supreme Being or Great Spirit, often referred to as Wakan Tanka by the Lakota or Gitche Manitou by Algonquin tribes. This entity embodies all aspects of the universe, including nature itself. Nature is viewed as a reflection of the Great Spirit’s will, serving as both a guide and teacher for individuals striving to understand their place in the cosmos.

The Four Directions and Elements

The spiritual framework in Native American traditions often revolves around the Four Directions (East, South, West, North) and their associated elements (fire, water, earth, air). Each direction holds unique significance and teachings that help inform an individual’s spiritual journey:

  • East (Air): Represents new beginnings, enlightenment, and inspiration.
  • South (Fire): Symbolizes trust, passion, and love.
  • West (Water): Associated with introspection and healing.
  • North (Earth): Embodies wisdom, strength, and enduran

According to scientists, the bumblebee's body is too heavy and its wing span too small. Aerodynamically, the bumblebee cannot fly. But the bumblebee doesn't know that and it keeps flying.
 
When you don't know your limitations, you go out and surprise yourself. In hindsight, you wonder if you had any limitations. The only limitations a person has are those that are self-imposed. Don't let education put limitations on you.....Always remember the only thing that is limiting you is yourself... So go out there and Soar!!!!
Blessings and Love... Carol Anne..
Accept yourself, embrace the present, and keep moving forward. If you want to fly in life, you have to let go of things that weigh you down.

When all the trees have been cut down, when all the animals have been hunted, when all the waters are polluted, when all the air is unsafe to breathe, only then will you discover you cannot eat money.


― Cree Prophecy

























The Courageous Seedling In a dense forest, a tiny seedling sprouted amidst towering trees. It looked up at them, feeling small and insignificant. However, the seedling was determined to grow tall and strong like its surroundings. It faced storms, lack of sunlight, and even ridicule from other plants. But it persisted, its roots digging deep into the earth. Years passed, and one day, a massive tree fell during a storm, creating an opening in the canopy. The determined seedling finally received its chance to reach for the sky. With unwavering resolve, it grew rapidly, utilizing the newfound sunlight and space. The seedling transformed into a magnificent tree, inspiring all who witnessed its journey – a symbol of perseverance and the incredible potential hidden within even the smallest beginnings.

LOVE WILL ALWAYS BE THE ANSWER...

Love is The Key

Walking along this pathway through life, it is often filled with a variety of emotions and occasional challenges.

When moments of uncertainty, sadness, or disharmony appear, re-center within divine white light.

And ask the angels to help you focus on love.

For it is love that heals everything.

Love is powerful, yet is not always at the forefront of every person’s mind among difficult times.

Magnify the love within your mind to connect to the power of forgiveness.

And watch as forgiveness lightens the weight of your load as it heals.

Unconditional love is who you are at the core of your soul.

Allow the wisdom of your soul combined with the power of love to burst through the lower emotions.

And to infuse unpleasant emotions with love to transform them while healing and uplifting yourself.

You hold the key to open up the flow of love to heal any situation or sadness for every person involved.

Love is the solution found within your open heart.

Love is healing.

Love stretches across the lines of time.

Love is multidimensional Love is expansive.

Empower your life with love, and ripple love and light to others you encounter.

Love uplifts and heals one heart at a time, one day at a time, one step at a time.

It all begins by choosing to unlock the door of your heart with the key held within your mind.

You have the free will to make love the key that unlocks the door to a magnificent life.

Inspire others with the power of love.

Infuse all areas of your life with love.

And watch as the miracles unfold around you and within you.

Channeled by Brenda Lott from the Council of Light.

“Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.” – William Shakespeare






















Funny Joke


Once a wise man held a seminar to teach people how to get rid of sorrows in their life. Many people gathered to hear the wise man’s words. The man entered the room and told a hilarious joke to the crowd. The crowd roared in laughter.


After a couple of minutes, he told them the same joke, and only a few of them smiled.


When he told the same joke for the third time, no one laughed anymore.


The wise man smiled and said,” You can’t laugh at the same joke over and over. So why do you cry over the same problem over and over?”

This poem, Desiderata, written in 1927 by the American writer Max Ehrman, has been a guiding light for many. It was discovered in an old St. Paul’s Church in Baltimore and has since resonated deeply with readers around the world. I keep it on the wall of my podcast set to remind me of what truly matters and to guide me through tough times. Let’s take a moment to reflect on its profound messages.


Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.


Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.


Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.


Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.


You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.


Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.


With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.


Found in Old Saint Paul’s Church – Baltimore


Desiderata concludes with a powerful reminder: “With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.” Life, despite its imperfections, is inherently beautiful. Striving for happiness and maintaining a cheerful disposition can help us navigate life’s challenges with grace and resilience.


Whenever I feel down or conflicted, I return to this poem for comfort and guidance. It helps realign my mindset and reinforces my resolve to continue my journey. I hope this reading has lifted your spirits and provided you with some solace. Remember, the universe is unfolding as it should, and our journey is here to teach us valuable lessons.

NAMASTE'




In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders Fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders Fields.


John McCrae



Thankyou so much

Kwekwecwelsten (Mohawk) or Kwekwecwiye (Oneida) – Good morning

A Sioux Indian chief wished to marry the beautiful daughter of an Assiniboine chief. The Assiniboine, however, gave his daughter's hand to a Cree chief with whom she was in love because the Cree offered a rare snow-white horse as a gift. The angry Sioux pursued the Cree and his bride whose father had returned the horse to help them escape. The Sioux killed them both but the horse escaped. For years it was seen roaming the surrounding plain and in memory of the young lovers this part of Manitoba became known as White Horse Plains

 You are worthy of this love. You were born worthy, and nothing you've done—or not done—can take that away. Your perspective is valid for you. Your feelings about what is good or not for you are true for you. You need not defend, explain, or justify yourself to anyone. You need not give attention to people who can't treat you well. You need not remain in situations that don't enliven you.
Love will always be the answer
