Native Quote du
Jour
"Nearly all the full-blooded Indians in our community
were poor. They had cattle and hogs but there was no market for them and
the only way they could get money and groceries was by selling snake root.
They had plenty of meat but no bread."
What is life?
It is the flash of a firefly in the
night.

Common Grammar
Mistakes
Eminent means "distinguished or superior"; imminent
means "impending, sure to happen." Also, eminent domain is the right of a
government to take over private property for public use. Examples: The rain
was imminent; it would arrive soon, soaking the eminent dignitaries on the
stage. (Think of imminent and impending, which both begin with the same
letters.)

Cherokee Feast of
Days
We want to do the right thing, say the right thing,
be the right person. We try to be in tune with life, to find harmony within
to blend with all that surrounds us. It just seems that so much has been
borrowed from us - time, concern, spirit - until we cry for restoration.
Like children, we want to ask, "Are we happy yet?" Is there a time of rhythm
and order and an even beat, so that we may walk without running, laugh without
tears, care without fear of giving too much? Yes, beyond the slightest doubt
we can renew and we can overcomet the feeling of being totally taxed to despair.
Speak to yourself, said the little Cherokee grandmother. Tell yourself you
are 'u wo du hi', fine looking, and your surroundings will see it and want
you to be happy. In other words, change your attitude and the world will
respond.
Why do you take by force what you could obtain
by love?
