“The spirit still has something for us to discover—an herb, a sprig, a flower, a very small flower—maybe you can spend a long time in its contemplation, thinking about it.”
~ Lame Deer, LAKOTA ~
The world today is about hurry up! Get there faster! Work harder, produce more, hurry up, eat quickly, be on time, don’t get stressed, headaches, conflict, drink to calm down, go to training on stress management, time management. STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP! Go spend 5 minutes with a flower or a plant. Look at it, think about it, look at its beauty, smell it, close your eyes and smell it again. Touch it; touch with your eyes closed. Listen to it; listen to it with your eyed closed. Slow your mind down. Think about the little things. Now close your eyes and pray.
Great Spirit, this feeling of calmness that I have, let me have it all day long.
