THE TEN INDIAN COMMANDMENTS!

Treat the Earth and all that dwell thereon with respect!
Remain close to the Great Spirit
Show great respect for your fellow beings
Work together for the benefit of all mankind!
Give assistance and kindness wherever needed
Do what you know to be right
Look after the well-being of mind and body
Dedicate a share of your efforts to the greater good
Be truthful and honest at all times
Take full responsiblity for your actions.....

"The Spirit Of Their Words"

by Amber "V" Moonstone 12/11/07

These commandments were from a down trodden bunch of dedicated Americans.
It hurts my spirit to know what we have done,
I as one person, cannot change the past
I as one person, pray for justice
I as one person, send healing energy
I as one person, lives in peace
I as one person, lives in light
I as one person, lives in harmony with the Earth, the Moon, The Sun, and the Sea.

I try to live by these commandments
I know that they do work,
But what can
I as one person do to wake up the spirit
that dwells in all of you?

I as one person, believes in mankind,
I as one person, believes in the words
of these Native American forefathers
that believed in us as good people!

There is no greater glory than to revere all of the Great Spirit's works...for he so loves mankind that he forgives us our errors...and has set forth a home called "Mother Earth under Father Sky" for us to be caretakers and not the destroyers of it. Beautiful work.

Like Newtons 3rd law. Everything that is done has a reaction. We gotta treat the earth kind, and she'll be kind back....
Tell Bush and his motley crew over in Bali....

Amber,
That picture says so much. Working together is the only way to preserve what is slowly depleting. Awareness is a blessing in itself my friend. Peace, Love and Blessings Alway, Paul.

What can I say?... I wish I could see this around me. I try hard to improve and those are many of the principles I believe in.
Words that reunite the heart and the mind, words that are honest can make a difference. This means that you are right to share such words.
