I remember walking through the trees listening to God speak through the whistling branches and singing sparrow. I remember fording the shimmering stream where the fish would glance against my shin and the water would weave between my toes. God spoke to me there also. He said, ” The energy is in the water, it is pure like the spirit.” I remember the sound of the pounding hooves of buffalo as they thundered across the plain. God said, ” Take only what you need; to take more is greed.” I remember the warmth of the glistening sun as it shone through the crystal clear atmosphere. God said, ” This is my breath to warm your spirit.” And I remember the stillness of the night; where the song of the far off stars would sing me a lullaby of peace. Life was good and I remember.
In the stillness of the night, I saw an unnatural darkness come over the land. God said, “These are the clouds of change; They have come to your land from the East. Fear not; as I will protect you through all your days but beware these new brothers are new to this world and they have not found their way to me. You must teach them your ways or your world will perish. This I say unto you. You must be patient; they have not seen the many lives you have; it will be hard for them to accept your ways, the ways of the spirit.
A brightness filled the sky and on the horizon, a multitude of brothers came to the land of the Americas. I remember watching them kill the buffalo and then take a prize and leave the rest to rot in the grass. I remember the last thunder of hooves drown out by the sound of man’s thunder. I remember the cry of the buffalo as one by one they were struck down by the White man’s fire stick. I cried with the wounded buffalo. I knew I would never again hear the mighty sound of thundering hooves as these majestic creatures of God fell like mighty trees; never to rise again. I said, “Why God?” and the answer was, “You must be patient; these are the souls of your much younger brethren; be patient, my son.”
And so it was, the land was taken by those who had not found the true connection to God and while they professed their concern for the many, they swore allegiance to the I. Themselves and their family. Through the many years, I saw many births and an equil number of deaths as I tried to continue with my directive to show them the way. I tried to live among them as one of their own. I tried to mend their sick as a doctor and I worked in their fields as a slave. I was their mother, I was their daughter while always being me. I shared my experience with them and slowly, ever so slowly, they began to grow.
I asked God, “Am I finished yet, my Father? I am tired; can I come home?” “Soon” was his answer. I continued with my quest to show the unenlightened the way to the Father but for every one I could raise, more of the juvenile mouth breathers would fill the void. While I looked with pride at all the souls who had followed me, I knew I was a part of them. They were all my children and I lived in them. I thought to myself, ” They are my children as I am my Father’s child. I will continue to live through them as he lives through me.” Is this the true evolution? To raise our own vibration, we have to raise up those below us. We don’t grow by climbing; we grow by building a higher platform below us. I asked my Father, ” Am I coming home now? ” and he responded, ” You never left.”
