| Some of life’s best quotes and sayings:
Posted: 9/8/2006 8:53:03 PM | Before our white brothers arrived to make us civilized men,
we didn't have any kind of prison. Because of this, we had no delinquents.
Without a prison, there can be no delinquents.
We had no locks nor keys and therefore among us there were no thieves.
When someone was so poor that he couldn't afford a horse, a tent or a blanket,
he would, in that case, receive it all as a gift.
We were too uncivilized to give great importance to private property.
We didn't know any kind of money and consequently, the value of a human being
was not determined by his wealth.
We had no written laws laid down, no lawyers, no politicians,
therefore we were not able to cheat and swindle one another.
We were really in bad shape before the white men arrived and I don't know
how to explain how we were able to manage without these fundamental things
that (so they tell us) are so necessary for a civilized society.
John (Fire) Lame Deer

anyway, one of my fav quote is this:
For let him who wants to enjoy life and see good days, keep his tongue free from evil and his lips from guile. Let him turn away from from wickedness and shun it, and let him do right. Let him search for peace and seek it eagerly. New Testament 1Peter3:10-11 | |

all that matters is who
is in your life.....
What you think about
you bring about......
The only courage you need
is the courage to live the life
of your dream.....
When your heart
speaks listen.....
Love yourself
its the only
guarantee there is.....
Change your thoughts
change your world....
Freedom is
found in forgiveness....
Happiness is a choice..... | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 5:25:33 AM | This is the beginning of a new day.
You have been given this day to use as you will.
You can waste it or use it for good.
What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it.
When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, in its place is something that you have left behind....let it be something good. | |
