Anywhere is the Center of the World
2009.09.18
Words below were spoken by Black Elk, Holy Man of the Oglala Lakota Sioux tribe.
Then I was standing on the highest mountain of them all,
and round about beneath me was the whole hoop of the world.
And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell
and I understood more than I saw;
for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of all things in the spirit,
and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being.
And I saw that it was holy...
But anywhere is the center of the world.

Marsha is an incredible place. Really when we see a place like that we make to ourselves conscious of the small ones that we are and also of the privilege of being a part of all that. Wonderful post
