Elder's Meditation Feb. 3

"It's very hard to do things in the right manner, but as long as we do things right, we are in turn with the Great Spirit."
--Rolling Thunder, CHEROKEE

When we are right with the Great Spirit, we are right with all things. It is impossible to be out of harmony with anything or anybody when we are in harmony with the Great One. So, if during the day a problem crops up and someone makes us mad, the best thing we can do is talk to the Creator first, ask for His help, then continue our conversation with the other person. In this way, our emotional nature will keep aligned with our thoughts, and we will always stay right with the Great Spirit.

Great Spirit, I ask You to guide me on the Red Road today.

Thank you, Doug. I know that for me, when a conversation takes a bad turn, I need to remove myself until we both calm down and then approach the disussion again with respect. My Higher Power helps me do that, find peace for myself when I am hurt and open my heart and mind when anger has closed them.

Hugs
Ann
