Looking at You, Joy!
I am looking at the feathery fingers of purple Mexican Sage bush as riotous in their movement as in their beauty, a contrast to the quiet lavender shed they stand next to. I am not looking at my recently deceased brother’s red tool chest tucked safely inside the shed, but I know it is there.

A HOPI ELDER SPEAKS
“You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour.
Now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things to be considered…
Where are you living?
What are you doing?
What are your relationships?
Are you in right relation?
Where is your water?
Know your garden.
It is time to speak your Truth.
Create your community.
Be good to each other.
And do not look outside yourself for the leader.”
There is always more to the story than meets the eye ~

“Always we hope
someone else has the answer, some other place will be better,
some other time, it will turn out
… This is it.”
