Finding the Beauty....

Went to a really good sweat last night! With several new, good friends. Thanks to all of you who were in there. It was most helpful to me. I am bringing this poem back again. I just can't help it! Everything moves in circles, you know! Hopefully, this will also help others who are making their way on their paths, to understand that there is beauty all around us. We just got to find it.... We all go through stages of death and rebirth in various ways.

And, as always, this is dedicated to my friend, brother, muse, and fellow teacher/artist, Robe Walker, member of the A'aninin, or White Clay Nation of Montana.

Finding the Beauty

The search began a few years ago.
A question that arose continually in mind,
Where is the beauty?

Surroundings that were once familiar
And loved became unbearable intimations
Of all that is inevitable.

In such there is no reproof.
Only a certainty that what has ended
Is akin to the origin of a new sun.

There is the sacred in that.
Because we come from the stars.
And there lies the beauty.

Like the Sky People who arrived long ago
Then emerged as the Earth People.
So too will always be the Sacred Circle for us.

A Rapid Walker once responded,
That beauty is found in that there is no
Separation between the Earth and the Sky.

Indisputable understanding and knowledge.
This answer has helped to settle a wonderer,
Who now finds the beauty everywhere.

- Renee Sans Souci

water to air

Water is to Air as Air is to Human: someone once said, to understand this saying, is to go through the cycle.

it's a healing journey, healing of the mind, soul, and spirit to become one agian.

Water: is all bases to all living things

Air: where creation is developed

Human: Natures Product

water is life giving when we offer water to each other, we are saying that we wish you well, and to live in goodhealth, and that we too breath the same air as another being this means all that walks, the two legged, the four legged, the winged ones,and too the ones that crawl, even to the blood with our bodies.

within our blood lies a soul and spirit the needs water and air. when that soul and spirit is tired so is our blood. so we go through a cycle to heal all of that which makes us whole.

that is where I am at today is trying to heal and to continue on that healing path, and making an effort to brake the cycle of hurt, and I will continue to pray and walk in goodhealth, not just for me but for my children, and my great grandchildren and their grandchildren after we leave this earth, and return to water, and to air.
and once agian become a Being of another kind. or maybe we'll become simple drops of rain, but we will still remain as one with nature. (Natures product)
