Consice News Item 5:

Mohawk elder Sara Smith believes that peace can be accomplished person by person.  "Look for peace within and without: I believe all people have it sealed in their heart center. Find the thread of truth in all of this and begin to weave our tapestry of life again."
    "As the dreamer dreams, so does he become," she says.  "It's within the realm of possibility for all people to make that choice.  I'ts difficult when this news of war is on 24 hours a day and bombards our souls. People become immersed in what's happening rather in centering themselves and focusing on what could be."

Interview in the Toronto Star, October 21, 2001

 
We make choices daily.  Without listening to our intuition, our choices tend towards addictive activities.  Following intuition, reinforced by reason, seems difficult at first, if not impossible.  Intuitively inspired, well thought-out choices force us into learning situations.  Learning strengthens the spirit, brings a sense of self-worth, and the quest to learn more.
