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 ...

Winds of life

Beware of winds of life/
they will blow you off your cousre/
So make adjustments/


Check out this video:

The winds of life always hit, blowing upon us, slowing us down and some times it may speedi us up. We need to learn how to make it through these winds. Building our stamina and shooting for the stars. Making preparation for these winds allow us to chart our course on this journey. By preparing we know how and when to push against the winds to get to our destination.
These winds can not be avoided, they were designed into the very universe we get our life from. They test our worthines. These winds wear upon us, and it is in our weakest moments that our true Self is able to shine and we make the" break throughs" necessary on this journey. Sometimes we must make adjustments, and for a moment it may feel as if your journey has ended in failure, but that is just an illusion. It is nothing but a momentary storm of life that you simply have to push through or maybe wait out.
The biggest danger for us happens when the winds begin to blow in our favor. We make it to our destination  in record time, and sometimes we can get big headed, and start to believe that it was our skill that got us their, but the fact of the matter is that we caught a good wind. But not to worry because on a future journey the winds will blow against you again. Either way we need to learn acceptance of what is, and not take it personal. The winds of life are just that winds, and we can accept that fact we can push through and flow with them as they come, and not take it personal.

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...
