Everything that Great Spirit allows to come our way is always with a purpose. He uses even the greatest error and deepest pain to mold us into a better person.

The Sacred Circle is designed to create unity. The Hoop of Life is also a circle. On this hoop there is a place for every species, every race, every tree and every plant

Gift in Spirit from "Directions We Know: Walk in Honor" Written by Grandmother Keewaydinoquay, Ojibway and Ahmeekogendah According to the tales of the Midewiwin, the first council of the Mide spirits was held at the Center of the Earth and it was called by the upper air spirits to ask the help of the under earth spirits in saving a strange, unfurred animal named mankind. Otter and Bear were chosen to push the first Tree of Life pole (Grandmother Cedar) from the Earth's Center through the surface, forming the first channel of communications between Above and Below. "Hurry Up!" called Otter down the crack in the earth where the top of the pole had first appeared. "My fur is drying out in the warm winds Above. Give your best effort." So Bear gave one last mighty heave with his giant muscles. The earth trembled, and the first Tree of life emerged in the sunlight, quickly followed by Bear himself. "Come on," urged Otter, "we have done as they told us. I am anxious to return Below." "Not so fast there," growled Bear. He lifted his great head and curiously sniffed the warm smells of Above. "I would see this unfurred creature for whom the whole council was concerned." "Very well," bobbed the agreeable Otter, "but make it snappy." The two totem animals did not have far to look. They came upon a cluster of the unfurred creatures pounding bark. Seeing the totemog, they howled, dropped the bark, and fled--all but one small manchild who could not even stand on his hind legs. Bear stared at the naked infant. "No wonder they needed help. No claws, no teeth, no fur. Not even a Berry." "Not even a WHAT?" "Not even a berry." Bear pointed down an opening in the manchild's head out of which came wails of people sound. "No safety berry. Like mine, see?" Bear leaned back his huge head, parting his gleaming jaws, and Otter obligingly peered into the cavern. There, hanging from the back of Bear's throat, was a round, ripe miskomin! (rose-colored berry). "Sure enough," said Otter. "What do you do with it?" "What do I do with it?" That's the Last Berry. It holds all the other berries I've eaten before down inside. And I never starve because the Last berry is always there." Otter slid impatiently into the water. "I don't really understand why anyone would eat berries." he called, "but if you think that manchild needs one---give him one and hurry up." Bear crunched down on his great buttocks and slid down to the dune to the beach. Behind him, where his rump had opened up the sand, there grew a long vine with shinning leaves and little round berries just like the one in Bear's mouth. Bear reached over, yanked off a berry, and bopped it into the wailing manchild's mouth. "There now," he rumbled in tender bear tones, "you shall not starve. You have a bear berry too." The astonished infant was still, trying to keep his bear berry down. (That is what babies are doing when you see them silently swallowing. In swallowing, trying to keep their bear berries down.) The warm sunlight of Above shone upon the new bearberry vine and upon the plunge circles in the water as Otter and Bear returned to Below. Bahmbtah-benahsee, (Tom-Tom Bird), who had seen everything that happened, flew to the Tree of Life. Carefully he positioned his grabbing toes into the oil bard. Then he threw back his handsome hammer head and beat out the first rhythm ever sounded on cedar. It said: Behreee Bare Bear Behree Paposse gotta Bare Bear Behree Gift of the Bear In Honor of Grandmother Keewaykinoway, Woman of the North West Wind

When a particular animal appears in your life you can determine what the underlying message is. Become aware of the repeated appearance of some animals. Synchronistic occurrences teach you to pay attention to the hidden messages in everyday experiences. Become aware of repeated patterns or themes. Each animal has certain medicine powers to teach and knowledge to share. Each animal has its own method of over- coming the many challenges it has met in order to survive. We have always had an alliance with the animal clan. If your connection is weak or has been ignored in the past, it is time to renew your ancient connection with your oldest teacher, the animals

As one learn to accept responsibility for our own failures our own negativity or weaknesses and humbly ask Great Spirit to help us change behaviors, habits or prideful beliefs we begin to understand what Great Spirit is doing in our lives. It starts unravel and starts making sense to one. It is through hearing, believing and accepting the truths which Great Spirit presents to us that we are able to lean on him with more and more consistency. Once we are able to honestly look at ourselves, or others, we gain the ability to see things through different eyes.

I am going to share my experience as my soul left my body last night. I want the world to know how much I love all things. I am the Great Spirit and I created all. I am going to do something to show the world I exist. I am going to speak to the people. My people must learn how to hear my voice. I yearn for deep conversation with all people. I will not remain quiet. Listen to me. I have a plan for each of you, a plan that will bring you to the reasons why you are here. . I love you so much that I give you the choice to reject me. This rejection causes me great pain. . A great wind is coming. It begins with the whisper of my voice. This wind will sweep the mother earth and consume the world of special message to each and everyone

It does not matter how long you are spending on the earth, how much money you have gathered or how much attention you have received. It is the amount of positive vibration you have radiated in life that matters. Good Morning

Through the circle of life you enter many steps. You begin to learn how to direct your mind rather than being directed by it. You learn how to make real decisions with the certainty of Knowledge. You learn how to free yourself from certain situations and obligations that do not represent your destiny or your greater purpose here and knowing Creator gifts given to you

In the best selling book The Four Agreements don Miguel Ruiz gives four principles to practice in order to create love and happiness in your life. Adopting and committing to these agreements is simple. Actually living and keeping these Four Agreements can be one of the hardest things you will ever do. It can also be one of the most life changing things you will ever do.
As you practice living these four practices your life will dramatically change. In the beginning these new habits will be challenging and you will lapse countless times. With practice these agreements become integrated into your being and every area of your life and become easy habits to keep. The Four Agreements are: 1. Be Impeccable with your Word: Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the Word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your Word in the direction of truth and love. 2. Don’t Take Anything Personally Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering. 3. Don’t Make Assumptions Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life. 4. Always Do Your Best Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret
