| Elder’s Meditation of the Day |  |
| “What does it matter how long I pray, so long as my prayers are answered?” | |
| –Sitting Bull, HUNKPAPA LAKOTA | |
| Too often we worry about the words we use in prayer. We focus on the words. What really counts is the spirit and intent behind our words. It is the spirit and intent that the Creator responds to. He reads and listens to our heart. Prayer isn’t only when we fold our hands and pray. Prayer is when we talk to the Creator even when we are walking down a path or sitting on a hill or walking in the mountains. The Elders say, walk in prayer. We should be willing to talk with the Great One. |
Great Spirit, today I will pray to You all day. Listen to my heart.
Got home from work today, don’t know what I’m gonna do with myself, I’m off until Monday night. I think Friday is gonna be a lake day, suppose to rain tomorrow, so I guess that’s a wash…. LOL Had to drive through snow the other week in Western Maryland, was enough for them to plow the road. Luckily they take pretty good care of those roads out there since they aren’t flat and are either going up or down. But then again it is the Appalachian Mountians I cross there. Was a beautiful sight seeing the snow like that, didn’t have my camera with me.
We have Gas heat at home now instead of Oil. Hopefully that’ll save a ton of money this coming winter. It’s a lot dryer in the house as well, guess we’re gonna have to get a humidifier. Just wish these kids would learn to turn freaking lights off. Glad I switched over to mostly CFL bulbs….. and no I don’t give a damned about the ‘mercury’ in them. It’s a natural element on the periodic table, it comes from the ground and I have no problem with it going back in the ground. Hell, I had a ball of Mercury I played with as a kid that I kept in a old aluminium film canister, I haven’t grown a third eye or have a leg sticking out of the middle of my forehead…. I think it’s all liberal environmentalism bullshit. Yes, we need to take better care of our planet, but one microfart of mercury in a damned light bulb isn’t gonna change anything.
Someone asked me this week if I have names for my guns…. I just laughed. I call whatever gun I have with me “Elmo” after the Weird Al song, “Elmo’s Got A Gun”
Okay time for a public service message, Obama voters and liberals flee now
So I guess we all have figured out that Obama as President is gonna try to grab guns, ban guns, raise taxes on guns and ammo and basically do everything he can to get rid of guns in this country. But then again 4 out of 5 politicians prefer uneducated, misinformed, unarmed pesaent’s…. 
According to the NRA there are almost 50 million gun owners in this country. Yet less than 4 million are members of the NRA, Even less for the Second Amendment Foundation. I am a member of both. I don’t think either one is perfect…. far from it actually in the case of the NRA. But you know what, they are the ones who are in Washington, DC, defending our right to ‘keep and bear arms” for us. If your not a member I urge you to join. I now the NRA has a ‘election year’ special where membership is discounted to $25,
I think it’s time both the NRA and the Second Amendment Foundation have at least a 10 million membership support. Please join one if not both, the more members that they have the easier it will be for them to get our elected officials to listen to them. How far will you go to defend your gun rights? How much is your ability to defend the lives of your self and family worth? We can’t afford to bury our heads in the sand and think they’ll never be able to take our guns

‘‘Laws that forbid the carrying of arms… disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes… Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.’’ — Thomas Jefferson
