Will They Understand When My Time Is Done?
Reflection on the final teachings of a Medicine Man
There is a Struggle that we have as Humans to Express our Ideas.
To Express Our Hearts.
To Express Our Souls.
We Are Filled With A Desire to Help.
To Improve the World.
Yet, We Worry.
How will others take it?
We have a Fear.
Will They Understand When My Time Is Done?
The Words We Speak, Teach, and Gift.
Will they be Received?
Will they Create a Better World?
Or will they Fall Flat?
Will Others Hear the Words, but Fail to Understand What Was “Truly” Meant?
It’s a Deeply Tragic Feeling to Experience.
Recently I was Reading the Words of a Native American “Medicine Man”.
It’s a Loaded Term, with many misunderstandings and misuses throughout history, and some people prefer different terms, such as Native Healer.
They are perhaps a group of the Most Misunderstood Wise Individuals and Sages in History.
