			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey mate,</p>
<p><strong>(Make sure you watch the video below&#8230;.</strong>)</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;Have you noticed when watching people, that too many of them are burned out, and sleep walking.  Repeating the same old, same old.  Same old thoughts, same old patterns.&#8221; </strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Some of them are BEGGING to be woken up.  Others, just want to be left in their twilight zone.  Which group do you belong to?</p>
<p><strong>So here&#8217;s the deal&#8230;  Do YOU have the Spirit of Survival?</strong></p>
<p>I was blessed many  years ago, to get beaten to death, and then begin a 20 plus year journey of waking up.   After being a guard taken hostage in a 3 day prison riot, dying, coming back, getting diagnosed with PTSD&#8230;  I had a pretty neat opportunity.</p>
<p><strong>I got to come back to life.</strong></p>
<p>I came back to live not only on October 26, 1989 PHSYCIALLY, I got to explore WHAT IS MY LIFE ALL ABOUT on all levels ever since them.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s a major life key:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;Paying the bills, getting by, not making waves &#8211; that isn&#8217;t even SURVIVING &#8211; that&#8217;s suffering your way through life.&#8221;</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>ON THE OTHER HAND:</p>
<ul>
<li>Getting your hands dirty.</li>
<li>Discovering what you are really made of.</li>
<li>Learning skills and philosophy that awaken something primal and REAL within you&#8230;</li>
</ul>
<p>That&#8217;s what life is all about.  REAL LIFE means getting out of &#8220;the box&#8221; and into &#8220;the dirt&#8221;.</p>
<p><em>I can&#8217;t tell you how much joy I experience when I teach men and women how to SURVIVE using Native American Skills and Philosphy.  I can&#8217;t tell you, because it&#8217;s gotta be lived, felt, experienced.</em></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;When was the last time you felt a spark of life come into existence?  I do it every time I make a fire rubbing two sticks together.  Unleashing &#8220;stored sunlight&#8221; is what my mentors called it.&#8221;</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>I feel it every time someone GETS A SKILL AND IT&#8217;S ESSENCE.</p>
<p><strong>We need to discover the dirt again.</strong> We need to get back in touch with something real, something deep, something primal, something of the heart.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;When you learn how to survive, how to make fire from nothing, how to move invisibly, how to see the stories left behind in the tracks and sign, YOU come back to life &#8211; and you can&#8217;t imagine &#8211; being like the maddening masses again.&#8221;</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Get real, get dirty, get alive!</p>
<p>Join us at our next Event &#8211; <a href="http://www.wayofthescout.com" target="_blank">Way of The Scout</a>!</p>
<p>Mr Twenty Twenty</p>
<p><strong>PS:  How can you become much more alive in the next 15 minutes? </strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Get REAL!  Get REALLY dirty.  Break a sweat DOING SOMETHING.  Learn how to move silently with respect, in the woods, and among humans.   Discover how interconnected we all are, and STOP &#8211; running around like a crazy chicken.  Whooo yah!</strong></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>&#8220;Seeing with Native Eyes.  It&#8217;s not just about noticing more, it&#8217;s about noticing you and your world differently.  It&#8217;s about being a native, here on Earth&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The songs of the Robin and The Cardinal, called to me this morning.   I felt a stirring within.</strong> The Crows and the Blue Jays invited me too, beckoning me to notice their adventures.  So I stopped, I turned away from the computer, put on my shoes, grabbed a cup of coffee and began my first official Native Eyes Walk of the year.</p>
<div id="attachment_418" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.nativeeyes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/2010_03100014daylil3.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-418" title="Day Lilly Shoots - Carol Wingert" src="http://www.nativeeyes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/2010_03100014daylil3.jpg" alt="Day Lilly Shoots - Carol Wingert" width="300" height="248" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Day Lilly Shoots - Carol Wingert</p></div>
<p>The snow from one of the most snowy winters in my lifetime was melting, <strong>I could see the shoots from the Day Lillies coming up, right outside my front door.</strong> Soon I&#8217;ll be nibbling on them, enjoying this amazing natural edible that nature offers to me.</p>
<p>Later this year, I will be sharing them with friends and new friends who come to our spring courses, seeking to learn native ways, and edible / medicinal plants.</p>
<p>After a short walk, I am near the waterfall, enjoying the flowing water, feeling it pulsate through me, awakening something that has been dormant for some time.</p>
<p><strong>I turn and notice one of my favorite edibles, Garlic Mustard is growing nicely already.</strong> Nearby I see Wild Strawberry Leaves, and leaves on the wild Rose bushes too coming along nicely.</p>
<p>As I walk along the path, I notice the wild onions growing, and I feel drawn to begin my annual 28 day &#8220;spring cleaning&#8221;, where I eat mostly what I can gather, along with a tiny bit of grains (or grain bread) and meat everyday.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;28 Days of eating, directed entirely by nature.  It&#8217;s a great way to get back in tune with what is, and notice more of what is possible.&#8221;</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>In just a few days, we will begin to experience &#8220;The Budding Tree&#8217;s Moon&#8221;, the first moon of the year, according to one of my mentors.   I am looking forward to it, and I am looking forward to sharing it with you.</p>
<p>Come back tomorrow!</p>
