Wishing a wonderful Samhain to all my beautiful Asylumites. Let's dance in the gibbous moonlight and the glow of fire to celebrate summer's end and friends who have passed over the great divide.
I did hope to have an animated graphic of fire to add to our Samhain celebration but alas my fire skills are not yet able to manifest such wizardry.
Instead I hope you will forgive my indulgence of adding these words of wisdom which I have memorised and recite at times such as this.

quote:

So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart.
Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours.
Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life.
Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people.
Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide.
Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place.
Show respect to all people and bow to none.
When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself.
Abuse no one and nothing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way.
Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
Tecumseh ? Shawnee (1768-1813)



Fare thee well my brothers.
