At our last Circle of One Gathering, one of the Wo'Moon read out these beautiful words. I don't know by who it was written, and if anyone knows, please let me know, so I can write the credits to this post. I want to share them with you, for it resonated so well with all of us and it reflects so well what we share and feel when we are together as One....Thank you Jenny, for all you bring to the Circle...
The Circle
My Grandmother told me that things all went in a circle,
The sun, the moon, the earth,the waters,the breadth of life
Are all round.
"In that roundness," she said, "lies wisdom, truth, love."
"In this lies power."
She sat by a kerosene lamp spinning her wool,weaving her rugs,
And she would tell me things of power.
"All things are part of you," she said-
"The four-legged, the root-beings, the five fingered,
You are all relatives."
"Long ago you used to talk to eachother.
But when we gegan to live in square houses and think in straight lines
We lost the power,lost the way."
"Lost the circle."
"Everything on Mother Earth and Father Sky is sacred," she said.
"The Great Spirit of life made it this way."
"When you hurt these things," she said,
"You hurt yourself."
