May 12 - Daily Feast
Calling someone a coward can be risky business. A coward isn't always a sneaky person, it may be someone who sees the end result of being foolish. Circumstances today demand we be cowards to some degree. Why would we stick our heads in a noose when we know the outcome? Taking a chance may be a big thing to a fool - but why would anyone in their right mind insist on being a fool? Fools drink and drive, abuse children, and destroy lives and property because they can. It is better to be called a coward than to be called dead wrong - or dead.

Elder's Meditation of the Day - May 12
"All the stones that are around here, each one has a language of its own. Even the earth has a song."
---- Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA
To believe that every tree, plant and insect can talk takes an open mind. Go by yourself into nature and sit quietly. Then pick up a rock and listen to your thoughts. After a while, put that rock down and pick up another rock. Your thoughts will change. These are the voices and wisdom of the Stone People. Each one has different wisdom and they are willing to share their wisdom with you. Many of the Stone People are very old and very wise.
Great Spirit, let every rock and leaf be my teacher.

'THINK on THESE THINGS'
by Joyce Sequichie Hifler
If everyone were alike, what a dull world this would be. It is the individuality of each person that makes the world so interesting.
The tremendous differences in people give a wide range of personalities, beliefs, and appearances to every group, no matter how small.
If all the flowers in the world were of one color, would we think them so beautiful? It is the variety and wide range of rainbow colors that keeps us fascinated.
Cowper wrote, "Variety is the very spice of life, that gives it all its flavor." So many have no thought of life except what they will eat, what they will wear, and how they can entertain themselves. And then we come upon someone who has the ability to see loveliness in the sunlight and charm in quiet rain. They can say things to encourage, or to make calm and peaceful.
We meet many different kinds of people. Some we love and some we like and love, which is a terrific difference. It is to find a wholeness or a part of our lost self in someone else. It isn't that they are so much like us or that we believe the way they do, but that they communicate, and it is this rare communication that respects the differences between peoples.
