pipes, and medicine bundles that belong to others. Do not walk between or intrude on conversation among two people. Speak softly, especially in the company of Elders or Traditional Teachers. Listen to others with courtesy. Do not interrupt Quiet your inner chatter and listen with your heart. Be truthful. Listen to your heart. At gatherings do not speak unless invited to. Treat Mother Earth and all her living children as your Mother. Show deep respect for your extended family, minerals, plants, animals, the four elements and human worlds. Greet your guests with honor and a loving heart. Give them your best food, blankets and places to rest. Honor one, honor all. (Anonymous) |
