Wisdom Keepers



I finished reading this book. There were so many good stories. One phrase in the book that stood out for me was that when this particular Native American prayed, unlike others who pray and have a long list of wants; the Native American prayer is simply, "Thank you Great Spirit/God for all you have given."
No list of wants, just thank you.   Although, I am not full blooded Native American my Grandfather's mother was. She was Cheyenne. When you look at my Grandfather's picture there is no mistake that he is Native American. So, when I read stories about this culture they resonate with my spirit...a knowing deep inside. I do not claim to be anything other than a "being" searching for truth in this world.



Another book I finished reading this week was:
