About Me

My photo
For me it is All About Being of Service & Living the Life of the Give-Away....

Being Mindful of those who are unable to speak for themselves; our Non-Two Legged Relations and the Future Generations.

It's about walking on the Canka Luta Waste Behind the Cannunpa and the ceremonies.

It's about Mindfulness and Respect. It's about Honesty and owning up to my foibles.

Women: Step Up: Be the Healing Now!

I have been contemplating about writing along this line for the past several days.....

I'm referring to girls, young women, daughters, granddaughters, nieces, & ourselves, and how it is time (Right Now) to become the Women Warriors that are needed to save this, Our Unci Maka.

Here's some personal history & teaching which I am sure may mirror many of lives of the women who read this:

I'm thinking back on when I was a young single (hot-chick) and looking for....... LOVE & Marriage & Babies........  

Thinking about how the "perfect man" would make my life full, complete, happy..... blah, blah, blah, blah....   You know, all that false hope & expectations that society puts on us.

So I wasn't so very wise then, and I did some really stupid & F-d up things looking for love & acceptance...... 

Now here's the really weird but Very True Thing.....  It was not only "society"... it was my Hormones....  Ok, like Totally.... every time I ovulated, I was so very to hot trot, like a veritable "Bitch in Heat".... which of course I was!

And I was caught in a paradox: "To thine ownself be true" (Shakespeare) or Do the "normal" thing; get married, settle down, and have a baby.......

So, I became really, really angry......  Why was I trying to conform to the "norm" when I obviously wasn't happy with that structured life? I was living alone, I had a Great career, I paid all my bills on my own, I traveled, I wasn't beholden to any man/male for anything, I had 2 degrees & a CA Credential (and would go on to get a 4th & an Ordination).... But there was till this conflict!

That eventually led me to studying "Metaphysics" (those things beyond the physical plane of existence).....  Which in turn led me to the Canka Luta Waste (Good Red Road) and at the same time, Louise Hay & the Wednesday night Hay Ride.......

Then I hit my 40's and I realised, that I loved myself and it did not matter if any of the men/boys I was "loving" loved me......   

By the end of my 40's I learned a really big life lesson about Loving Healthy Men......  So many men I had "dated" were so screwed up emotionally and didn't know shit about treating & honoring a woman........  Let alone dropping the dogma of double standards. 

Now I'm in my late 50's (60 in a few months)... and what I'm saying is Get Smart!  Rely on yourself. Love, Honor, & Respect Yourself.... If you wait for some man to do it, you'll likely be waiting a very long time....

Pay attention to your body's moon cycles..... He may be hot this week, but next week, you're sure to say to yourself: "What was I thinking?" (Brad Paisley)

If possible, get an education and for sure get a good job... support yourself first, get your own place, do the things you want/like to do.....  Be Independent and follow your Heart not your hormones.......

And the reason you love, honor, & take care of yourself is:


Right now Our Unci Maka is Crying, she is being Tortured and she needs right minded, good, strong, intelligent women to change/reverse the devastation & destruction we have perpetrated upon her these last several centuries.....

Those of you with children...... Do you want your children, grandchildren & great grandchildren to live a good, healthy, & happy life?  Then step forward and take the necessary steps/action(s) to continue life on this planet as you knew it when you were a child, or even how your mother knew it when she was a child.....

Be the difference you want to see... Be the change you want to happen... Be a major part of the solution, rather than a part of the problem.....

Because, I have no children, no grandchildren.... But I care about yours, I care about the innocent, those who are unable to speak for or help themselves: the Flora & Fauna, the Tonka Oyate, the Mne (blood of our Unci Maka), the Air......


I care about the ceremonies that keep us in balance and honoring the TRADITIONAL ways (yeah, that means covering your shoulders, chest, & wearing a long skirt)....  NO Moon creatures @ ceremony. No dope, drugs, or alcohol. No weapons. No mixing the Chief w/ that Cannunpa! No ganji in that Cannunpa either......

YOU & YOUR CHILDREN (especially your Daughters) are the key to survival of ALL of Our Relations......  The elders, many are now on that Blue Road of Spirit.  It is up to US, RIGHT NOW, THIS VERY MINUTE (not tomorrow, not next week, not next month.....) RIGHT NOW!


"How do I begin?", you whiningly ask?  

FIRST: Give Thanks for your pitiful life... and do it every morning that you wake up & get out of bed & before you fall asleep at night.... (Your life will begin to improve & it will continue to improve as you become more honestly grateful) 

Then, Ask Tunkashila what you can do, how you can be of service to All Our Relations.... and then SHUT UP & Listen..... and follow your guidance!


How do I know all this?  Because I Am Stubborn and I've had to Learn the HARD WAY.... I've had my ass kicked by Creator more times that I'd like to admit.......

I'm doing my best to try and save you from some hard lessons......   Some of you will "get it" and proceed in a more smooth manner, while others of you will need a harder lesson to get you on the path that you need to be on......

So anyway.... "It's Now or Never" (Perry Como 1953) so get on your pogo stick and hop to it!
