It Just Is...

My mediation this evening from the book "Meditations with  Native American Elders" It spoke so directly that I needed to post it here.

"It is a paradox in the contemporary world that in our desire for peace we must willingly give ourselves to struggle"

                                         Linda Hogan, Chickasaw

 Mediation:

The Grandfathers have taught us about sacrifice. We have been taught to pray for the people in a pitiful way. Struggle and conflict is neither good nor bad, it just is. Everything that grows experiences conflict. When a deer is born, it is through conflict. When the seed grows, it is through conflict. Conflict proceeds clarity. Everything has the seasons of growth.  Recognize-acknowledge-forgive and change. All of these things are done through conflict.

So well said, I shall just leave it at that!

Aho, brothers and sisters, we are in this together.......let others walk beside you.
