A story given to me from One Feather
---------
There was a time when the Great Spirit would blow the winds and rains on the lands to cleanse them. Fire would be routine and scorch the earth. Along the way, many seeds would be released for the land to have its own rebirth. This was the way of the world when no one tried to control it, or disrespect the lands. While people have the right to live in peace and comfort, I often saw it as an intrusion on the sanctity of the pristine Creation.
I lived during a time of complete awareness and respect for the Earth Spirits. I honored the plants and animals as much as I could, knowing that both of those kingdoms were also going to nourish our stomachs. My people were peaceful and loving, and we took the time to help each other when we could see that our neighbor was in need. It made no difference who they were. In simple terms, whether someone was an elder statesman, medicine man, or brave hunter; whether male or female, made no difference. Each of us understood how to be respectful, be we also knew that all people were equal at a soul level. Young or old, healthy or crippled, each individual was just as important as the other. It was particularly nice to see that the members of our clan who held esteemed positions would not act in a way that made them pompous, arrogant pack mules.
Today, I look from the heavens and worry that these good principles have gone away. There is to much dissension around the globe. Many in positions of leadership and respect are turning on the very people they are supposed to lead, govern and protect. It is a case of enlarged egos and greed that cause most of it. Still, the world is a great place to live and learn many things. I suppose what I am asking of each one of you is for you to take over that leadership by being disciples of living in harmony and with the strength of spiritual principles as your compass. When good people ban together to cause havoc on the plans and actions of those who do not obey the laws of Creation, you disperse an army of positive vibrations. The Spirits, or angels around you, are put on a path of urgency, while laying down the tracks for the Law of Attraction to be unleashed. In other words, those who have good intentions and behave in accordance of their beliefs will see good things unfold for them. The opposite is true for those of a negative agenda.
As a true son of the earth, I found it easy to do all of the praise-worthy things that I have mentioned. My actions backed up my words; my world was always treating me well, no matter what took place. I wish each of you the blessings of the white buffalo. I want all of you who understand this lesson to be given unending access to the riches that the Great Spirit has made for you. These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.
