"The bonds of friendship, of family makes us feel secure and shielded from the ravages of time and the inevitability of death. Bonds are powerful attributes. They are Medicines of a kind we need to sustain the life forces that create Life and hold Life together for the passing of generations into the next. The feeling of not getting old is the expansive understanding of timelessness, completeness, wholeness, and togetherness." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 2.19.13
"... the deep abiding feeling of a baby is the child's ability to connect us with where they come from and where we go, and the beginnings of the ends we grow towards. Babies are the great mysteries we are. They draw the circles of our ancestors, weave from the cords of their concepts of being, and tie us to our spiritual responsibilities. Not being judges, little babies leave us to our decisions to plunge deep into the Mysteries, or not. Babies leave those decisions entirely up to us. It is all in the children's eyes. It rocks us into their existence with attentive powers larger than the life, it seems, held within our hands!" - Gregory E. Woods
