Thanks to Sheila Landry for finding and passing along this wonderful quote.
It would be so nice if everyone held to these Native American Values!
?Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart.
Trouble no one about his faith.
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 bow 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.
Abuse no one and nothing, for abuse turns the wise to fools
and robs the spirit of its vision.?
-Chief Tecumseh via Catalyzing Change ?Native American Wisdom?
