But in reading about your river and seeing the gorgeous photo I flashed on this quote from a Hopi Elder: <br /><br />"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…<br /><br />Where are you living?<br />What are you doing?<br />What are your relationships?<br />Are you in right relation?<br />Where is your water?<br />Know your garden.<br />It is time to speak your Truth.<br />Create your community.<br />Be good to each other.<br />And do not look outside yourself for the leader".<br /><br />And then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, "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 on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly. <br /><br />"Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water. <br /><br />"And I say, 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. <br /><br />"The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! <br /><br />"Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. <br /><br />"We are the ones we have been waiting for." <br /><br />Oraibi, Arizona <br />Hopi Nation <br /><br />So what a blessing that your river runs swiftly and is not a stagnant, rotting marsh (with the bloated bodies of dead Tingleberrys popping up). You are the river and you are flowing quickly becoming all the while the most brilliant person you were meant to be. Namaste, Juliet Mark,

Never posted to you before … and who knows, out here in cyberspace I may be a dog, paws on the keyboard,(think border collie — herding, herding my wild inner sheep.) But in reading about your river and seeing the gorgeous photo I flashed on this quote from a Hopi Elder:

"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".

And then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, "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 on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly.

"Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water.

"And I say, 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 we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.

"We are the ones we have been waiting for."

Oraibi, Arizona
Hopi Nation

So what a blessing that your river runs swiftly and is not a stagnant, rotting marsh (with the bloated bodies of dead Tingleberrys popping up). You are the river and you are flowing quickly becoming all the while the most brilliant person you were meant to be. Namaste, Juliet

"fast" is a relative concept. there are many other ways to see the river, your life...try to see them. expand your perception. the river is there to teach you something new. you went there, not to escape your lies, but to realize something new. nevermind(literally)the lies. look for, focus on finding that new, bigger picture of the river, your life. (what you put your attention on grows stronger in your life, you keep saying. do you practice what you preach?) see the river as fast, and it's fast. see the river as cleansing, and it's cleansing. see the river as...and remember, you are only seeing one section of the river, your life. no doubt, there are sections elsewhere, that would seem to move at different speeds at different times. keep your life flowing...like the river. and if you haven't yet gone for a dip in the river, well...it's just there, waiting for you to join in the flow. now that's another way to see the river...it's waiting for you to receive the gifts it has to offer you...waiting...waiting...it doesn't sound like that river is moving very fast, at all, to me... the river moves so fast because that's how you perceive it.
