the gift of many tongues,
the ability with well intentioned thought or focused gaze when I am standing before you
to implore you
receive this wisdom,
this letter, this willing, this wanting, and
complete the work required to make this vision as real as you can make it so.
Living by the chalice. Setting aside the blade.
Returning to the moments of conceptions
Remembering the reason for coming into being
Reviving the words of those that came before me
Revering the collective wisdom come from a sacred pool
The next time it rains run outside and catch the raindrops on your youthful tongue
And watch how your dreams invite understanding
Deborah

We Are the Ones We've Been Waiting For...We 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 the 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.
This could be a good time!
There is a river flowing now very fast
It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid.
They will try to hold onto the shore.
They will feel they are being torn apart and they will suffer greatly.
Know the river has its destination.
The elders say we must let go of the shore, and push off and into the
river,
Keep our eyes open, and our head above the water.
See who is in there with you and Celebrate.
At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally.
Least of all ourselves.
For the moment that we do,
Our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.
The time of the lone wolf is over, Gather yourselves!
Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary.
All that you do now must be done in a sacred manner
And in celebration.
"We are the ones we've been waiting for..."
The Elders, Hopi Nation, Oraibi, Arizona
