> Elder's Meditation of the Day - February 12
>".the spirit still has something for us to
discover - an herb, a sprig, a flower - a
very small flower, maybe you can
spend a long time in its contemplation,
thinking about it."
>-- Lame Deer, LAKOTA
>The world today is about hurry up! Get there
faster! Work harder, produce more, hurry up,
eat quickly, be on time, don't get stressed-
headaches, conflict, drink to calm down, go to
training on stress management, time
management - STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP!
STOP! STOP! STOP! Go spend 5 minutes with a flower or a plant.
Look at it - think about it - look at its beauty,
smell it, close your eyes and smell it again.
Touch it; touch with your eyes closed. Listen
to it; listen to it with your eyed closed. Slow
your mind down. Think about the little things.
Now close your eyes and pray.
>Great Spirit,
this feeling of
calmness that
I have, let me
have it all day
long.
