I DARE TO BE DIFFERENT

About Me

I am a registered tribal member of The Me'tis Nation,Ohwaco clan.I have a Huron bloodline that comes from Wendake,Quebec,and an equal amount of Cherokee blood also.TURTLE ISLAND,the land of MANY NATIONS is my country.I am spiritualistic.In other words I don't follow any ORGANIZED religion because I have a problem with the rules of someone else telling me how I should worship The Creator and His Son,Jesus Christ,but I am Christian.NATURE IS MY CHURCH and nature is everywhere and SO IS THE CREATOR and JESUS CHRIST.I am sometimes quiet but can become VERY animated at times.I love to dance at powwows and I dance EASTERN WAR.Music-wise I've stopped when grunge hit the scene so you can say I'm stuck on good old-fashioned HEAVY METAL and CLASSIC ROCK,but love the soothing sound of Native flute and drums,especially when doing a smudge.I am very down to earth and can have a sense of adventure that takes me to these different gatherings.My sense of humor can be off the wall and sometimes cartoonish,SO BEWARE LOL. Thunder striking East and west In the corners Of my concerns Though this thunder is hard to take The will outweighs the concern Forward motion I truly no longer wait for no one I create my own scripture I am a Warrior One who protects the innocent Its children and Their Mothers Sacred Animals of the Earth True Warriors hunt for food Not for sport Protects the borders of our lands A servant to everyone Not himself This is me My Warriors Creed Allmighty Father, whose voice I hear in the winds, and whose breath gives life -hear me- I come to you,as one of Your children. I am small and weak. I need Your strength and wisdom. Let me walk in beauty and let my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset. Make my hands respect the things You have made. Make my ears sharp to hear Your voice. Make me wise, so that I may know the things You have taught my People. I seek strength not to be better than my brothers, but to be able to fight my greatest enemy, myself. Make me ever ready to come to You, with clean hands and straight eyes, so when life fades from me as a fading sunset, I may come before You without shame. Never say to yourself, "This may not work." Give support to whatever you try. You see, it hears you. It accepts your decision even before you begin. Always tell your work that it is good and that it will serve a purpose long after it is finished. To tell it anything else is calling it by unseemly names, names that oppose its good success. Call life by its beautiful names. Tell it how strong and honorable and good it is. It is your life and your voice, and you have the right to use them together for every good purpose. Allmighty Father from the four winds, guide me today with Your wisdom from the east, from the south, from the west and from the north. As we go through life we find ourselves on track one day and off track the next day. We gain consistency through prayer. Prayer is our connection to the Great Spirit. Prayer is our channel for knowledge and wisdom. Prayer is how we keep our sanity. The Elders say we should walk in prayer. Allmighty Father, help me this day to look within myself. If trouble arises, let me realize that it's not what is going on but how I am looking at it. Give me Your power this day to conduct myself according to Your way of life. NORTH meets SOUTH at SPAC

My Creator, guide me today. If my eyes cause confusion, let me close them and see through Your eyes. If my ears hear confusion, let me listen to my heart. Let me let You guide me photo by didi photo by Didi

I'd like to meet:

DR.DOOLITTLE,SO I CAN CONVERSE WITH NATURE ON A HIGHER LEVEL If you have men who will exclude any of THE CREATOR'S creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity,you will have men who will do likewise to their brother Oh Great Spirit, I know of Your power. I love the days when I can feel Your presence. Let today be one of those days. Let me walk today in Your beauty. Allmighty Father, allow me the insight and knowledge of how to live in harmony and balance with my surroundings. Grant me change from within. Before us is a future all unknown, a path untrod; Beside us a friend well loved and known - That friend is The Creator. Aho "Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger,if in a lonely place Show respect to all people, but grovel to none. When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself. Touch not the poisonous firewater that makes wise ones turn to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home"...Tecumseh,SHAWNEE FOR IT IS WRITTEN: 'HE SHALL GIVE HIS ANGELS CHARGE OVER YOU, AND, IN THEIR HANDS THEY SHALL BEAR YOU UP, LEST YOU DASH YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE. ( LUKE 4:10-11 *NKJV ) My Creator,grant me the serenity,to accept the things I cannot change,the courage to change the things I can,and the wisdom to know the difference Great Spirit, let my visions today be Your vision. Put within me a vision of the being You would have me be. Then help me to keep the vision in my mind. Now when you are faced with a problem that seems to overwhelm you, remember to ask for God's help.After all: HE IS A SHIELD TO THOSE WHO TAKE REFUGE IN HIM.( PROVERBS 30:5 ) We get pretty stale when we never take time to relax. A few hours of getting away from even a beloved madhouse will make a new human being out of a bundle of nerves. "There is one God looking down on us all. We are children of the one God. God is listening to me. The sun, the darkness, the winds are all listening to what we now say."--Geronimo, APACHE "You could study the ancestors, but without a deep feeling of communication with them it would be surface learning and surface talking. Once you have gone into yourself and have learnt very deeply, appreciate it, and relate to it very well, everything will come very easily."--Ellen White, NANAIMO Great Spirit, help me this day to slow down. Help me to listen - quietly. Help me to watch carefully. Help me to listen to my inner voice. Let me listen and watch only the thing You would have me observe. Guide my eyes and my ears to be focused on You.Allmighty Father, love me today and teach me to be quiet. "Brother, you say there is but one way to worship and serve the Great Spirit. If there is but one religion, why do you white people differ so much about it? Why not all agree, as you can all read The Book??"...CHIEF RED JACKET~SENECA 1805 Oh Great Spirit, I come to You this morning in ceremony. I come to this sacred place to talk to You. I thank You for Your guidance and protection. Give me Your eyes today so I may see the beauty in all things. Praying to seek a vision, to seek truth is always right. Truth builds upon itself - as the true mark of a warrior who conducts himself/herself accordingly - so that its beauty may shine in the faces of our children. My Creator, let me be patient. Let me realize that You are in charge of all things. Let me realize that I must grow my roots a little at a time to become strong. "Decisions that have been made for the last couple of centuries have been decisions made without the presence of a real God....from the vision, not of God, but of money." --Tom Porter, MOHAWK Human effort without spirituality is like the grasshopper in autumn. Its desire to spring as high as it did in spring is overtaken by lethargy. Happiness keeps you smiling,trials keep you strong,sorrows keep you human,failures keep you humble, success keeps you glowing,but only THE CREATOR keeps you going LAST FAMILY CHRISTMAS WITH DAD 2002 The Love of a Lifetime...R.I.P.SHITTY"The way, the only way to stop this evil is for the red man to unite in claiming a common and equal right in the land, as it was first, and should be now, for it was never divided. We gave them forest-clad mountains and valleys full of game, and in return what did they give our warriors and our women? Rum, trinkets and a grave. Brothers--My people wish for peace; the red men all wish for peace; but where the white people are, there is no peace for them, except it be on the bosom of our mother. Where today are the Peoquot? Where today are the Narrangansett,the Mohican, the Pakanoket, and many other once powerful tribes of our people? They have vanished before the avarice and the oppression of the White Man, as snow before a summer sun." TECUMSEH~SHAWNEE Always take into account what your mind has in it. What of the world have you taken in and stored in all the little crevices and avenues of your mind and thinking? Guard your mind, for out of it comes what you think is possible for you. If you have stored defeat and rejection, those are the only things you have to draw on. Our voices record everything we say within our minds and hearts. Blessing or swear words, sarcasm or snappy cynicism, all are there, and all have a part in ruling life. This is the hardest part to sweep out and control, but it can be done - and it is better than storing trash.~ "Neither anger nor fury shall be found lodging in their minds." ~IROQUOIS - CIRCA 1570 PREPARING FOR BATTLE "People say that crisis changes people and turns ordinary people into wiser or more responsible ones." --Wilma Mankiller, CHEROKEE DURING BATTLE "The smarter a man is the more he needs God to protect him from thinking he knows everything." --George Webb, PIMA THOUGHTS AFTER THE FACTSearch for yourself BY YOURSELF.Do not allow others to make your path for you.It is YOUR PATH and YOURS ALONE.Others may walk it with you,but NO ONE can walk it FOR YOU. REFLECTING THE DAYS EVENTS To properly develop, the human being needs to learn the guiding principles. It is from these principles that we make our decisions. Spiritual values are the guiding principles given to us by the Great Spirit. He says if we live by these spiritual values, the results we experience will be good. These spiritual values will develop and guide the human being by helping us to think right. Right thinking will improve our choices and decisions. Doing this will bring good consequences. Great Spirit, teach me values first. "Own the earth,sky,and water??WHAT MADNESS...When Jesus Christ walked the earth,YOU KILLED HIM and nailed Him to a cross.Only THEN did you worship Him.How can we trust such people?"TECUMSEH 1810 The most beautiful thing about life is that we can begin it anew each day. We need to forget every unpleasant thing that has ever happened to us, every shallow thing that has no meaning, every unkind word or deed or thought and start all over again. And the only possible way to do it is by faith. Faith, faith, in yourself, faith in God, and faith that right will win. And facetiously stated, "Them that has gets." If you have a little faith it will attract more - if you know about it within you.
