Well, the walk was longer, as camp had been moved. Greetings and Blessings to All. The Fire was not hard to find really, just get to high ground, and look with intent, eh?
All our stories gone? Well, rather than thrash about, I'll just start at the beginning.
I stumbled upon the Fire years ago, during a winter of some discontent. My name came easily, it is shared with a foal that took me with her for a bit as her Spirit moved from this world to the next. A beautiful big wildly colored girl, who I desperately wanted to live. She showed me quite vividly that there are Other Places, more vibrant and true than this one.
So much has changed, so much has remained the same. How....normal! Mother is retching and belching her desire for Respect, cranking it up. Will Mankind pay attention now? Some are, some still remain in ignorance of All.
My stint teaching GhostChildren has ended, about this time last year. Those who lie and cheat, and have Control (they think) finally thought they'd banish me. It got to the point where I would have to learn to lie and cheat to keep my position, and when my mouth opened, Creator guided. That confused them mightily, and while they were confused, I WindWalked out of there. The first 6 months were difficult, and healing. These last 6, a not so hard, healing continues. I have gone from caring for YoungGhost to OldOnes. My charges are a couple of 90 years of age, and of course the whole family as well, although they do not realize that.
I trust everyone is well enough? I've missed you and thought of you from time to time.
Beloved Moon. Are you on the Healing Path? Breathe.

MyOldFriend! Welcome Back To Camp!
The Fire Has Wound Down Considerably Since You Graced Us With Your Being. I Missed You, But I Knew You Would Find Us Again. You Have my Heart For Staying With Those GhostChildren As Long As You Did. And Yes Here by The Fire You Will Find The Cure: Read It Deeply: It Is The Correction Of The Fiction. (Manifesto Directive And Preamable.)
Yes The CORPORATEFICTIONS Stole Our Site A Total Of Four Times! We Lost 5.1 Giga Bites Of Information The Last Time, Our Child Boards, Jinta And FreeCat, etc. Dan Jumped In With Both Feet And Started The Fire Again And We Picked Up Here To Accept The Responsiblity, PrairyEarth Is Our WebMother-Master And We Are just Getting By Here On Sheer Sutborness!
I Am Rethinking Whether Or Not To Switch The Site Over To Read Only, As Others Are Finding Their Way Back Here By The Fire: If They Use It: I Will Keep It Going.
Many Wandered Off Because I Would Not Drop The POLY-TICS(=MANY TICKS), I Think They Found My Near EndLess Rantings About The State Of Things Worrysome And Walked Away Because I Would Not Play Christ Anymore, Turn The Other Cheek And All. We Just Keep Walking.
Again Thank you For The PipeBags You Sent They Were So Well Made! (Kaneekaneet Said To Thank You, But He Was Given A Second Bag Before He Arrived To Accept Yours.) So I Still Have The Smaller Bag Sitting On My Altar.
Thank You Again, When I Am Well Again We Can Talk About Carving Something For You. I Had Just Thought About You Yesterday Briefly, And Then I Find Today You Are Here, I Love It When It Works That Way.
Again, Welcome Home.....The GhostChild
Windwalker- 12-04-2007
Your welcome warms me on this chilly day. I believe we are getting some of your Air!
I am remembering some of the Old Fire, right now the pictures of your carvings. Well. The Carver remains. Loss is so interesting. In some ways, I mourn the loss, in another, I celebrate it! I see Dan blowing on the Ashes, and finding some coals. And I chuckle. White man build big fire, sit way back. Indian build small fire, sit close. Better vision to see in the Dark. We will need that vision, eh?
Those Pipe Bags. Making them instilled something in me that was needed. Can't name it, perhaps it does not need naming. Their energy grew as I stitched. And didn't they travel around before finding you? Back to me, for some additional fussing. They are where they need to be, I suppose, and if they need to go somewhere else, they will get there too.
There were a couple of YoungGhosts reading the site back then. I don't know if they ever posted, but some did tell me that they had visited, and were reading. Making the site read only. I will have to look around and see if there is any discussion on that. My own feelings are mixed, and I guess that means I have questions. Perhaps it is not a topic open to disucussion. I guess the bottom line is - Whatever takes you further down the path to Wellness is what I would support!
I will hold you and all who come to the Fire close, as I go about my day.
GhostChild- 12-04-2007
I Think Fear Cooled The Embers Close To Putting The Fire Out: But There Were A Few Of Us Who Also Added Our Wind To Keep It Going.
If I Wasn't Clear, Kaneekaneet Accepted The Bigger Bag For The White Buffalo Calf Women Pipe, Which Is His Pipe For The People Ceremonies. It Is Good To Be Useful.
Now Imagine If All Those Of The False Promise And The False Face Actually Came Forward With Their Help Then When They Promised They Would: We Would Have Many Different Things To Discuss To The Mutual Benefit Of All....But I Know That Was Then And This Is Now.
Is It Sexy Or Cool To Be Labelled An Intellectual Terrorist? Or Perhaps Even A Threat To The National Security Of The United States? I Don't Think So, When Your The Cure For The CORPORATE CURRUPTION: It Just Proves They Have Far More To Hide Then We Could Ever Imagine.
I Am Glad You Survived The Test Of The HardHeart And The PoisonedMind.....They Do Not Make It Easy To Do The Right Thing Or Create Benefit To Children: They Will Even Stand In The Way Of Their Own POLICY'S And Bring Hartdship To Many And Minor Benefit To Others While The Whole Time Claiming The Right To Take Rights In Exchange For Benefit: At Their Discretion....
If You See Those GhostChildren, Thank Them For Me: I Know It Is Not An Easy Task To Get Through All My Ramblings About Something No One Should Have Live With Or be SUBJECT Too.
You Can Write To Me: indianmoon@shaw.ca If There Is Anything You Feel You Should Not Raise By The Fire, We Are Close Now, But Many Still Live In Fear Of Those They Did Not Elect.....Okay? ...The GhostChild.
Windwalker- 12-04-2007
Ah, Fear. So much Fear. When will they learn to turn it around? As a YoungGhost, I was confronted with a situation, and called someone I barely knew for advice. In a Guided Moment, I was Gifted with the Knowledge of how to take the Negative, internalize it without harm, and send it back out Positive. When will I remember to do it every time the situation warrants it?
I cannot express properly, how deeply honored I am that Kaneekaneet accepted the Bag, and for such a Pipe! And how amazing is it that the second post I made upon my return was in the White Buffalo thread! We all see through Creator's Eyes from time to time, even when we do not know what we See.
I still communicate with a few of the Young from school, ones that have left. I do not go around the place. I would be escorted off of the property. Such behavior being the manifestation of their Fear, of course. And working in another Town, so do not have the opportunity to see anyone. I did leave your (our) writings printed out and hung on the board. And stashed here and there, inside some of the books.
I am living quite a Solitary existence at this time. Working out some lingering Pain I suspect, although unidentified in it's specifics, it is Old, I do know that. And it is changing, little by little, to Joy. Work, always work. Keeping the Self/Other balance sometimes seems elusive. Lessons, always lessons. Dreams come, and are helpful.
Thank you Dear One.

Odd....I Put In A Reply....And Now It Is Gone?
Windwalker- 12-05-2007
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again? or Discretion is the better part of valor?
"It is better to be prudent than merely courageous, as in I'm signing up for the easy course first; discretion is the better part of valor. This proverb, a synonym of look before you leap, was first recorded in 1477. Charles Churchill put it in poetic form: "Even in a hero's heart, Discretion is the better part" ( The Ghost, 1762). Shakespeare also used a form of it: "The better part of valor is discretion" ( 1 Henry IV, 5:4). "

Yes And:
A Knight Is Not Known By His Valor: A Knight Is Known By His Deeds.....The GhostChild.
LightSeeker- 12-07-2007
My dear Motech,
As there are Many knights in my family I wish to tell that Valor and Deeds are very much intermixed as gossip in a bar is today.
DO YOU realize the Luxury that WE enjoy being able to communicate this way via this NET thing today??? YOU cannot afford the time to even consider ANY negative thoughts as long a (1) member of this group clings to the belief system that YOU have created here for us.
REMEMBER what Christ said---"As long as TWO or THREE are gathered together IN MY name then THAT constitutes a Multitude. YOU are that NAME and WE are that Multitude. Give yourself a good shake---kiss your girls---and get back to US and WE shall build again.
Why do YOU think I have been SO "Bitchy" lately??? Every time I see my Doctors and they seem to be Disappointed that I am still alive---really does not allow me much room for tolerance. For this I appologize.
THIS IS a "GOOD" and True site---use it---use us---use yourself like you were a Blue Chip Stock WE all invested in. Look---you are there---we are here---connect with us a you did before---"Fire Master".
If this is too harsh---tough---WE love you and need the "Old You". We all are in pain---can't you feel it???---help us help you---help us---help each other.
LightSeeker????????????
Windwalker- 12-07-2007
LightSeeker! Are you the same Seeker of Light with whom I corresponded briefly many Moons ago? That one had no ??????? after his name, as I recall. And I thought would not have posted a reply in a diary called Hello Windwalker finds the fire, without saying hello.
I am glad you are alive. Still. As we all are, however well.
Old friend or new, Nemaste. The longer we live, the more question marks we earn after our names. In time, answers.
LightSeeker- 12-07-2007
Dear WindWalker,
I confess to be one in the same. Question marks or not---I live---Hello to you this time for sure. Time for me at present flows neither forward nor back but up and down and for this I am so grateful for that means that I am and not was.
Our Moon needs---and needs to be recharged from the base level and This IS what we owe to him. WE are all known to the Powers that be and there is NO reason why anyone of us should falter to step forth. As my late father told me, "Remember, Bobby, you only die ONCE so just stand up for what you believe."
NOW is no time to relapse into apathy for that is the best time for our enemies to take advantage of our repose.
Keep it simple---Focus---Direct---Deliver---Proceed. No course is impossible unless the human mind deems it to be so.

Windwalker- 12-08-2007
Dear LightSeeker,
It is interesting how we travel through time. Some in a linear fashion, some vertical, some horizontal, some all squiggly. I am greatful that you are with us. My relief upon seeing your name when I arrived was great. Now I am waiting for Dan to find a computer somewhere!
Our Moon is delicate. So filled up with the Good and the Bad. With such fullness, it is easy to tip over and spill out.
As with time travel, recharging one's self is such an individual process. Can we help? I imagine so. What form will that take? For me, it will take whatever form Moon lets me know that he needs, and is within my power and ability to do. How I can help has not yet been revealed to me, other than to be here, feed the Fire with what twigs I can glean, and wait for the direction of my help to be revealed.
I wish for you a great day.

The only thing we fear here is continued injustice
GhostChild- 12-09-2007
It Is Good To Be Here With OldFriends.
There Is Only Much To Do When Hands Are So Few.
Healing Appears Impossible When Left In CORPORATE HANDS.
I Have Been Offered The LittleDeath,
But The Time Has Not Arrived To See Further:
Know Deeper: Or Touch The Light Of A Free Day Vailed In Gentle Mists.
I Miss MorningStar And The Many Others That Came By Our Fire In Spirit:
But Without Seeing The Great Purpose.
Those Others Too, That Learned Of Their Hate Grew Past It.
But That Is What The CIVILIZED CORPORATE SOCIETY HAS AFFORDED US.
Those Whom Believe: In The CORPORATION...
Have Believed Because They Were Told So:
Not Because It was So:
But Because They Were Gripped By The Fear Of The Unknown:
The Other Side Of This Undiscovered Country:
The Reality Of Turtle Island.
Right Now The FICTIONS Are Scrambling Slowly Awake:
To See What They Have Enabled.
It Is Only A Matter Of Time Before All The Fires Grow Cold Of The Indifference.
Healing Is Life Without Fear....
I Would Call The Knights Assembled:
But I Fear They Have Grown Old Of Hiding.....The GhostChild.
Windwalker- 12-09-2007
judgejustice, hello.
One thing about injustice. Plenty of it to see and fight. Or flee from. Fear? Fight? Flee? We each chose both the battles and the method of fighting. Or fleeing. We chose to band together, or fight alone, back against whatever wall presents. Or none at all.
Moon, No healing at Corporate hands. None. Zip. A stay of execution at best. I shun them. I fight them when necessary. I engage only to further my own agenda, and purify after contact.
What LittleDeath is this? The death of Fallen Leaves, Crab abandons Shell? Is Death ever Little for those who Live?
I hold dear those who are missed. Perhaps, like the Windwalker, they will return to warm at the Fire? Or not. Sometimes Seekers take what they needed, and are not seen again.
My humble offerings tonight, Sage and Cedar on the stove, will be for those missed, with the prayer of health, vision of beauty, and heart justified by spoken truth.
Good night to All, sweetest of Dreams.
