Elder's Meditation of the Day

Elder's Meditation of the Day - April 21

"Conciliation is the key to survival. Peace is the goal." -- Haida Gwaii, Traditional Circle of Elders

When we make decisions or experience conflict we need to look at the greater whole. The end result we want to accomplish is peace of mind. If we keep this goal in mind, we will, overall, live a happy and fulfilling life. Everything in the world is constantly changing so we should not resist this change. A good question to ask ourselves is, "would I rather be right or happy?". If we would rather be happy, then it is easier to let the little things go. If we would rather be right, we tend to look for the WIN/LOSE. 

Great Spirit, today, give me the tools to seek peace of mind.
