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.

Tribal quote - slight change in format and instructions on how to use them

From know on I will post one proverb per day. I have to change the study model for a little while so that I can keep up with my different group. I know some of you liked the 3 per day, but without comments or discussion Im assuming Im sending out to much. So here we go.
For those who have been following the Journey the proces is the same, but for those that are new and want to develope your mind and spirit with those of us on Gye-Nyame journey here you go:
Step 1 : read the proverb, for those moving to a new level in your life or Gye-Nyame Tribe, Scribe the proverb (this simple means get you a journal and write the proverb word for word.
Step 2 : define the proverb for yourself. Get some insight ask questions because these proverbs are layered (they have lessons for different levels of life). Write your definition using the power of Kujichagulia to "define for yourself what the P or Q is saying to you. If you are a bold Soul share your definition on the blog, FB, and or Twitter.
By the way you never know who your insight will help. Share your wisdom you never know who life you will save. True story "one of my poems that I shared on my voicemail once saved a womans life who just happened to call the wrong number. She heard my voicemail (poem I did) and decided that she wanted to continue living." So dont hide your light it may be a beacon that saves some lost lonely traveler. Hahahahaa
Step 3 : Now write...How  you can benefit from the wisdom that you have uncovered.
My friend I promise that at the end of 90 days your life will be different. Because putting yourself through this process is healing and it will unleash some of your gifts. Because you will begin to drink from your own fountain of wisdom. Now here is the proverb of the day:


You do not have the right to quit trying. (The universe wobbles when you do.) You have the right to quit Toxic People. (They're contagious.) ~Dr. SunWolf
