"There is a quote that has always remained very close to my heart made by an American Indian Medicine Woman and it goes like this:" - Asha
"We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth."
The man whispered, "God, speak to meand a meadowlark sang. But, the man did not hear. So the man yelled "God, speak to me!"And, the thunder rolled across the sky. But, the man did not listen.The man looked around and said, "God let me see you." And a star shined brightly. But the man did not notice. And, the man shouted, "God show me a miracle!" And, a life was born. But, the man did not know.So, the man cried out in despair,"Touch me God,and let me know you are here!" Whereupon, God reacheddown and touched the man. But, the man brushedthe butterfly away and walked on. Don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged as you expect.Author unknown
"If once [the people] become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, Judges and Governors, shall all become wolves. It seems to be the law of our general nature, in spite of individual exceptions." -- Thomas Jefferson to Edward Carrington, 1787
