Today’s blessing is from an Ojibwa prayer…
that goes out to all our human sisters and brothers….
Teach us love,
compassion
and honor
that we may heal the Earth…
and at the same time…heal each other.
Today’s blessing is from an old Ojibwa prayer…
that can be prayed to any God
as it relates to all our human sisters and brothers:
Teach us love, compassion and honor
that we may heal the Earth
and help each other.
Today I’m thankful for the Ojibwa…
whose simple prayer…this simple verse
Could, if heeded by all of us
change the destiny of our universe…
For they know, as I wish we knew,
how everyone is our sister and our brother
And if we were all taught love, compassion and honor
we have a chance not only to heal the Earth
but also…to heal each other.
Within a catcher, dreams do scream
feathers redeem
man's sullied soul
sweet dreams the goal
Within their vanes they transfix
each demon lick
each channeling's
imaginings
Within the web they flutter, curs
nightmare mutters
beaded offerings
each feather sings
