“An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life.
‘A fight is going on inside me,’ he said to the boy. ‘It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil-he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride superiority and ego.’ He continued, ‘The other is good- he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.’ The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, ‘Which wolf will win?’
The old Cherokee simply replied, ‘The one you feed.’ “

Dear Friends,
Last Saturday we had a beautiful Medicine Wheel Ceremony, Drum Circle and Labyrinth Walk. Our facilitators, Raven, Richard and Georgette brought us deeply into Spirit, connecting with the ONE and each other. We first cleansed with Sage, and kept the space of peace and love, and sacredness in the Circle as we drummed and began the ceremony. Raven shared the story above to remind us all thoughts are to be held in high consciousness and to let go of the emotions of the dark wolf in side of us.
In this day with all the political turmoil going on, in the United States, the UK and the world, our thoughts are to remain on the internal goodness within us. Focus on kindness, benevolence, empathy, compassion for all people, and animals everywhere. We know our thoughts and emotions can either stir the water or keep the water calm. Which would you like to swim in? As the fish are swimming in water, we are swimming in God. Let us make our atmosphere one of JOY and happiness. Every enemy, every person we do not like, everyone who is hurtful, has the wolf of goodness in him or her. FEED the goodness. The more we feed ourselves and others with Goodness the more Goodness will be displayed in the world.
Howling for PEACE and LOVE,
Abigail and Steve
