"Red Hawk Tales"August 18
The Answer or the Question?
The white man says it is agravating you can not talk to these people,they never give a straight answer but speak instead in circles.Grandmother would laugh and try to explain,there are many answers to each question it is the seeking that brings the lesson.White man writes his words in books hard answers in black and white,but how many times through the years are these answers proved untrue? Red man tells his children if you ask then you should be seeking,there is no set answer the questions have many shadings.White man says these are the rules I ask you answer it is that simple,what I say is so must be,I went to school and was taught this way.Red man laughs and says to him,Mother Earth is my school what she tells she proves,in this life there are no rules everything is always changing.White man says God rules my life,He approves my greed and strife,because my skin is white He loves my kind more than yours.Red man answers with a question, did not Creator make all things,what then makes you better than the rocks,earth,and trees? White man says I have a brain, I can think,feel,love,and hate, Iknow that I am right do not I rule all in sight?Red man only laughs and laughs, if you had a brain you forgot to use it,your kind only destroys and what you rule is only in your mind. Rise up say your prayers give thanks to your Creator,sing,dance,find true joy,live your life in humbleness.We are equals all in the sight of our Creator,there are answers to every question it is up to you to find them. The man who forces his truth on another has no truth,peace,or happiness,he is forever on his guard afraid someone will take it fromhim.Live to find peace,gentleness,and unity of heart,let the feelings in your spirit guide you,each person knows right from wrong and there is no person better than another!
