Creator-Universe and Man
By story teller pabear48
Creator-Universe and Man:
Among the Great Cedars and all other trees a story told is shared by their roots?
At the time of first Creation when the universe was but as small as the head of an ant the beginning of a tale formulated when ( Gi'-tchie Man-i-to' (Great Mystery). Creator snapped his fingers and the Universe exploded in one loud Big Bang. It remains expanding even as we tell the tale?
After the snap of his fingers and many billions of years past then:
The first things began to appear? First the sun and then the moon after a twin hit the Earth. (Nee-ba-gee'-sis (the Moon) is called Grandmother, and (Gee'-sis (the Sun) is called Grandfather.
A small planet (Ah-ki' (the Earth) was formed and put under the watchful hands of Mother Earth by Grandmother and Grandfather. Whom to this day we know and see as the Spirit of all things with each having a life force to view and learn from as we Walk upon the Earth.
The tale of Man: By Wha-O-Chee
When Ah-ki' (the Earth) was very young, it was said that the Earth was like the fire molten of the volcanoes and then Grandfather blew upon the molten rocks covering Mother Earth and the rocks were cooled and the lands formed from the breath of Creation. But he blew to hard and all was covered in deep ice!
Grandmother watched and saw this thing. She stretched out her arms and moved the ice and it began to react with her (giving us the tides of today) and the ice went away but for the two ends where she could not reach. Water is the lifeblood of Mother Earth and in the waters comes the flow of all things because from her comes all living things. Water is the nourishment and purifies all that we are.
Gi'-tchie Man-i-to' saw this change and smiled upon the waters. Saying all is given to you as the Sacred Winds which shall flow in four directions. North winds to keep you cool. East winds to remind you of me! South winds to warm your Spirit and West winds that say I must go forth. To each I leave them as physical powers and as Spiritual Powers for the entire Mother Earth to see.
Upon the singers ( we now call angels or his workers) he formed the birds of the air to infill song into the winds and he placed creatures that could swim under the waters to multiply as food for all the Earth as well as all crawling things unto the lands that were formed by the breath of Grandfather. At this time all things were peaceful and all things could speak! It was the happy time for life!
The Creator sent his singers in the form of birds to the Earth to carry the seeds of life to all of the Four Directions. In this way life was spread across the Earth. On the Earth the Creator placed the swimming creatures of the water. He gave life to all the plant and insect world. He placed the crawling things and the four-legged on the land. All of these parts of life lived in harmony with each other.
But, Ah-ki' remained saddened as no one was upon two legs as was Gi'-tchie Man-i-to'
And she cried which warmed the waters and brought great rains upon her Spirit.
Gi'-tchie Man-i-to' saw this thing. He then took four parts of Mother Earth and blew into them using a Sacred Shell from the waters:
(Which we understand was the shell of the a species of long narrow marine shelled mollusk (Antalis pretiosum)(( and in memory when man came he used this Sacred Shell for trades and as money.))(( also known as the Megis Shell))
From the union of the Four Sacred Elements and the breath of Gi'-tchie Man-i-to' man was created in the image of the Creator: Two legs to walk upon Mother Earth! Two eyes with two arms to see and reach as two ears allowed man to hear the songs of the angels in flight. Man was created!
First man then began walking upon Mother Earth and he named every creature he saw and heard upon his walk. First man talked with the animals and learned from them the wonders of the Spirit each carried and their real purpose they were formed for to be a part of the Earth. Even the worm had a great tale of why he was created as did the dingo and the elephant. Every living thing has Spirit (life) and a purpose for being formed and man knew this once upon a time?
Man watched as all creatures multiplied and cried: For man could not multiply?
Mother Earth saw this thing! In compassion she changed the air and First Man was put to into deep sleep so he would not cry any more.
Gi'-tchie Man-i-to' saw this thing Mother Earth did and had compassion upon First Man to. He reached down and withdrew a rib from the man and blew upon it with his breath of life and Woman appeared sleeping next to Man.
Mother Earth smiled, and used the Four Winds to clear the air of sleep and Man awoke to Woman.
Man smiled, for now he to could multiply!

Thank you for your precious time to read our hub sharing!
Thank you!
How does an individual express thanks to all the visitors that read a hub creation?
Hubpages is a very neat place for individuals to express themselves and share knowledge, information and create lens sharings in a very unique way, and the opportunity of a social network that has a greater purpose than at a first-blush-peek?
It remains an adventure for every single user to discover just how fun and even more every day as they learn the ins and outs of creating a hub sharing that peaks the mind of the reader visiting the hubs, and adds something greater to their life experiences?
We thank each and every visitor for your time is a precious entity that has a limited period upon Mother Earth, and in this regard you have honored us with your visit to one of our lens creations. Sometimes, we as humans get so rushed by life we simply forget to stop a moment and say: "Thank you!".
The Native American Nation is made of many individual tribes and the word of "Thank you" actually does not exist in any of our many languages: But, was a Simple Nod of the Head from one Warrior to another Warrior. This nodding had exactly the same meaning as the written words of Thank you.
We nod our heads to each visitor!

Tid-Bit sharings for thought by pabear48 From the Bear Cave System
Life is like a Carnival ride:
Everyone has ups and downs.
Some are fun and exciting, and others bring fears.
Learning to reject the fear is the key of Wisdom!
Find it and all fears disappear forevermore......Amen
**********************************************************
LOVE IS THE SHARING OF HOPE, SELF AND REALITY.....
Sometimes, it is like a simple rose...a rose is a rose is a rose.......
THE SECRET OF LOVE IS TRULY WITHIN YOU.............As
the wind blows it is there...as the wind moves it shares...as the wind disappears and yet still is: SO IS TRUE LOVE! THUS...
the "secret" is to simply acknowledge love for it to grow.
*****************************************************************
RUSH RUSH LIFE AND JUGGLE IT BY!
At times, it is obvious we all juggle time and ourselves trying to
finish a job or simply to finish the jobs we all put on the side: OR,
sometimes we juggle simply because we ""PROCRASTINATED""
AND GOT BEHIND IN EVEN DAILY CHORES. The simple secret is learning to plan ahead by making all our time valuable as the last...TO CONSIDER BEFORE WE BEGIN...and to not out
stretch our abilities of accomplishment by juggling our time!
******************************************************************
Make believe can be rewarding to the mind:
As long as you hold the perspective it is not real.
Far to many allow make believe to pattern their mind.
From games to comics, and movies to television:
They allow the make believe to enter and grow:
Better is a wise choice listening for a voice!
