Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade

Image
Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade Great Day, Fam. This one right here? It’s not for everyone. If you’re not at or approaching Eldership—defined in our tribe as about 55 years old and up—you might not feel all of this. But if you’re curious, or if you’re one of those younger souls already walking with wisdom, you’re welcome to keep reading. This message is for the Elders. For those of us who should know better. And yes—I’m including myself. Let’s Start With the Mirror I’ve got to confess something. I’ve been guilty. Guilty of being reactionary. Guilty of falling into the trap of conservatism. Guilty of romanticizing the past. Guilty of looking at our young people and calling them “soft”—as if we were born warriors, as if we didn’t have to become who we are through fire, failure, and guidance. Many of us Elders are stuck in a loop. We remember only the highlights of our youth—the toughest times we survived, the boldest moments ...

Life is like a coin/
It has two sides, life is good/
When we embrace both/

Life exist in between two opposite poles. when we embrace this fact life becomes easier for us. when we look at ancient myths and principles we can see this fact illustrated. Proverbs sing the song of this fact if we slow down long enough to listen. Our very existence is based on the colliding opposites that were set loose in the beginning (if you believe in a beginning). The dance between life and death, the infinite and the finite, the light and dark all provide the canvass upon which our lives take place. Stop shunning this fact and learn to deal with it. We accept this fact in nature and learn to live with it. for example we know that spring is followed by fall, and fall is followed by winter and we make adjustments. Take time to do the same for your life. understand that this  journey will take you through bright days and the darkest of nights, but if you learn to change your perspective and see what is really happening you become one of those that can make it pleasurable or at least comfortable enough to make it through. Ancestors teach us that " no matter how dark the night the day is sure to come", if we realize it and find purpose for those dark times in our lives then we can easily overcome them and find the blessing. Check your mythic s/heroes and see which one did not experience what seemed to be curse but turned out to be a blessing.
The flip side of life is designed to prepare us for the greatness before us. it gives us time to rest and take stock in the lessons we have received. When we get the lessons the Sun of our lives begins to rise and we can move into our greatness as a new person. These flip side of the coin of life helps us recreate ourselves because they force us to take the inward journey that many may fear to make.  Inside of us lies the greatest opposition to our growth and change that we mostly need. These dark flip sides of the coin point out our strengths but more importantly exposes us to our weaknesses. Only through facing our weaknesses and fear can we move to the next level of life.Embrace the fullness of life and you our bond to have a full life. This journey never promised to always give you good times, nor was did ever promise you easiness but it does help you become a fuller, wiser, and more powerful person. Reach and and embrace the fullness of life and become that person you were meant to be.
Peace and 1hunidyears

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...
