One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between 2 "wolves" inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?" The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed." BY ME a mantra I try to live by~i'd rather be a searcher than a sheep i'd rather turn and face than swing away i'd rather be a gypsy, outsider,carnival freak, than conform.. but i wont conform to non conformity ..either.. i'd rather be in the shining mystery than in the dullness of every day, i'd rather be the point of ridicule than a fence -sitter- fantasist- original thought , ideas of genius, love that is all encompassing, non consuming and beyond any romantic idealism, love that is planetary, embracing to all sentient beings...even us, even you, even me, the universe, the multiverse is infinite, therefor we are... full of infinite possiblities....~

Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water. And I say, see who is there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all, ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt. The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word 'struggle' from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we have been waiting for. More on Wildness You know, I think if people stay somewhere long enough - even white people - the spirits will begin to speak to them. It's the power of the spirits coming from the land. The spirits and the old powers aren't lost, they just need people to be around long enough and the spirits will begin to influence them. -- Crow elder Wilderness is not just the 'preservation' of the world, it is the world. .... Nature is ultimately in no way endangered; wilderness is. The wild is indestructible, but we might not see the wild. -- Gary Snyder "In his book The Rag and Bone Shop of the Heart, Robert bly says that to be wild is not to be crazy like a criminal or psychotic, but "mad as the mist and snow." It has nothing to do with being childish or primitive, not does it manifest as manic rebellion or self-damaging alienation. The real marks of wildness, he asserts are a love of nature, a delight in silence, a voice free to say spontaneous things, and an exuberant curiosity in the face of the unknown."
