Message from Chief Seattle



"My brother, I tell you true. If all who see the Earth as being poisoned would, instead, give more attention to seeing the Earth clean and vibrant, then, very soon, your Earth would be cleansed.

If all who see their nation's leaders as misguided or uncaring would, instead, give more time to seeing themselves being represented by responsible, caring leaders who stand firm for the highest good of all, then, very soon, you would have good leadership.

If all who see their spouses or family members as troublesome or unloving would, instead, give more thought to seeing their loved ones as the shining children of God that they are, then, very soon, all challenged relationships would be renewed and love rekindled.

If all who see themselves as sick or poor or weak of heart or undeserving would, instead, give more energy to seeing themselves as healthy, abundant, empowered, worthy, and lifted up, then, very soon, they would experience all of the good things that life has to offer.

If all who see themselves as a physical body and no more would, instead, give more thought to seeing themselves as an ever-brightening star that resides inside the body, then, very soon, everyone in your world would be shining their lights--just as all of the Elders who have walked your Earth have done.

You would be living in peace, harmony, and comfort in a culture that you have created consciously, a culture which, by your divine right of birth, you deserve to enjoy.

  • Each challenge is there to guide you toward the desire of your heart

  • Each problem, seen from the positive side, always turns into a blessing

  • Each sorrow leads you to your joy

  • Each doubt--to your knowing

  • Each lack--to your abundance

  • Each debt--to your freedom

  • Each feeling of hopelessness--to your power

  • Each cry of pain--to your comfort

  • Each act of war--to your peace

  • Each act of anger--to your love

  • And each journey through darkness--into the light."
