September 27 - Daily Feast
E li si said, "Lie on the earth with your feet higher than your head when you are very tired. Roll your feet to keep from making noise. No one hears you and it rests your feet." She said, "Lonesome? Sing. When an Indian sings he touches something higher than himself. Not feeling good? Put bare feet on bare ground. Healing rises out of the deep pulse of earth. Can't think? Close your eyes and go to the mountains in your heart. Mountains are just a place but trips take you out of your worried mind. High-priced medicine doesn't compare to natural medicine. Reach toward the sky and raise up on toes - several times. It might not help you - but who knows?"
~ All who go through among my people may find peace when they come in. ~

Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 27
"I got my education from my culture. My teachers were my grandmothers, and I am really thankful for that."
--Mary One Spot, SARCEE
Our often unrecognized, but most powerful teachers are our women. In order for men to learn in a balanced way, we need to learn from our men Elders and our women Elders. Learning from the women Elders will teach us a whole different set of values and insights to life. When we have life problems, we need to go to our grandmothers to get their advice.
Grandmothers, teach me the values of the Great Mystery.

"THINK on THESE THINGS"
by Joyce Sequichie Hifler
You speak to me of faith and the church you attend. The most important faith will be the way you feel about it within you. Don't ever let anyone tell you that it is too unsophisticated to think about such things. For it is the very basis on which you draw your breath. Without faith there's no hope.
The most beautiful thing about life is that we can begin it anew each day. We need to forget every unpleasant thing that has ever happened to us, every shallow thing that has no meaning, every unkind word or deed or thought and start all over again.
And the only possible way to do it is by faith. Faith. Faith in yourself, faith in others, faith in God, and faith that right will win. And facetiously stated, "Them that has, gits." If you have a little faith it will attract more - if you know about it within you.
