Natives come in all sizes, shapes and colors. From the milky skinned blue-eyed blond and the green-eyed redhead to the dark brown and black, they are all Native in their heritage, blood and heart. Some are tall and stately, some are short and stocky. Some have long, angular faces; some have round faces; some have round eyes; some have almond shaped eyes, and some have a definite Oriental slant to their eyes. As you learn, and become more knowledgable of Native history and anthropology, you will become aware that these physical characteristics are a clear indication of the lineage of that person's heritage. Do not be so insensitive as to ask someone if they are "Indian", or "how much Indian are you, anyway"? Would you ask a native of Japan "how much Japanese are you, anyway"? Don't scoff! It's happened to me.

(Great Truths) Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue. Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them. Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it. Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker. Eat a live toad in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you for the rest of the day. If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague. If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it. It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others. Never buy a car you can't push. Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you don't have a leg to stand on. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance. The early worm gets eaten by the bird, so sleep late. When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. Birthdays are good for you; the more you have, the longer you live. Ever notice that the people who are late are often much jollier than the people who have to wait for them? If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy? You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person. Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once. Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened. We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors; but they all have to learn to live in the same box. A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour. Happiness comes through doors you didn't even know you left open. Have an awesome day, and know that someone has thought about you today..
I stared intensely at what I saw, Trying to figure out if it was My eyes, my nose or my jaw. Maybe it's my ears, I thought, or maybe it's my chin, I'm sure that I will figure out what is my "part' that is Indian. Maybe it's my arms or hands or some little internal gland, I sure hope I can soon find out what "part" is Indian. You see to some that means a lot to them it's a big deal, So maybe it's my knees or toes or maybe my left heel. But, you see, I don't understand what this "part" stuff means, Because in my heart I know just who and what I be. That from the top of my head, to the tip of my toes, With every beat of my heart Every fiber of me knows That it is not the "degree of blood" That makes me what I be. It is the spirit that dwells within, you see. So with every breath I take I'm as sure as I can be thatI Be Indian !!
