Let Us Put Our Minds Together As One. |

Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 27, 2004. Irving Powless, Sr., ONONDAGA. If we sat in a circle and put an object in the center of the circle and we all described what we saw, everyone would see different points of views from each other. Some would even see opposites, because they would be sitting on opposite sides of the circle. In other words, you don’t have to see what I see for you to be right. In fact, everyone in the circle is right based on their own point of view. If we are willing to listen to everyone’s point of view, then we can get a more accurate description of the object in the center. This is one way to put our minds together. When we get the clarity from each other, we should give thanks and be grateful to each other. Grandfathers from the four directions, guide me today with Your wisdom from the east, from the south, from the west and from the north. To All, The following inspired message was forwarded by Helen. We thank Onondaga for these wise words.] © 11:11 Progress Group. |
