The turtle has long been the image of patience and sustenance for many nations and the lessons of Turtle Island have been given many times. Some day we will learn.
*********************************
Broken - - -
An Ancient Turtle Shell carries within it, the secrets of harmony and peace, but as is the way of many lessons, something beautiful must first be broken for the wisdom of the lesson to be revealed.
The Four Sacred Directions sit along with the Four Sacred Elements in the Sixteen Markings on the back of the Ancient Turtle Shell. These must be divided for the beauty within to be seen - such is the magnitude of the lesson of living in harmony on the face of Turtle Island. Sometimes we must be torn apart for the lesson to be learned, and the binding of the lessons makes us a stronger nation, a stronger brother, a stronger sister.
