Elder's Meditation Oct. 24

"We create that bad among ourselves. We create it; then we try to call it devil, Satan, or evil. But man creates it. There is no devil. Man creates the devil."
--Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA

Inside every human being are the laws and codes by which we should live. These laws and codes are communicated to us through a little voice. When we are still, this voice guides us. If we choose to live out of harmony, our lives become filled with anger, hate, selfishness, dishonesty, etc. When these things appear in our lives, we give up accountability and blame it on something or someone else. If we want to live in harmony, we need to pray our way back to living the principles the Creator gave us.

Grandfather, today let me walk with the principles.

Thank you, Doug. I need to remember that I own how I feel, and that nobody else is responsible. Fear is mine, not the person who caused it. I am responsible for releasing it.

Hugs

When I am using, I find that I CAN'T be honest, which causes a spiritual tear right down the middle of me. When I am not using, I can be and am honest, open and willing. Healing this, then, means that I have to stay sober in order to walk the principles as best I can.
