Hi Blue Panther, I have heard this story before but not the last part where he is set free. I complain when I have to do something and there are about a dozen things that have to be done before I can do it - decide to paint the walls and first have to pick out the paint, wash the wall, move the furniture, put down the paint cloth... and the time all of that is done you are too exhausted to paint. For years I have called that my "centipede syndrome". The two daughters tease me about it.:} Now I will look for that "sliver of light" and get on to the chore.:} Thank you :} Barbara On 7/23/2014 7:35 PM, Blue Panther via wrote: > I'm free... Napi was standing up on this hillside and he was kind of leaning against the tree. All of sudden Napi noticed this centipede come by where he was standing. The centipede with its many legs were in full stride as he passed Napi. About that time Napi looked down at him and said, " Oh my, you've got so many legs. How in the world do you know which one to move next?" The little centipede just froze up. He got to thinking about that... what leg to move next and suddenly he just could not move any. So the centipede was stuck in that very spot. Just about that time, there was a cloud cover over this meadow down off the hillside. Through this cloud cover there was a sliver of light coming down and it covered this meadow. This centipede gazed on that and then he felt released. He saw the beauty and the presence of that light. His little legs were free and they started to move as he headed on his way > > unknown > ======*====== > List archives > http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/index?list=cherokee > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to CHEROKEE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
Very interesting connection...... I've let things build up in my room so much so I didn't know where to start (let alone what to do with anything)......frozen. I've been working slowly on it today & have finally broke down the "wall" between my computer desk & my bed......now its more of a bump (tote)......slowly moving forward.......finally :) But now I have to go in a different direction & work on my dishes & laundry & dinner. Then tomorrow......I go to work :) Its nice to see the "light" & be able to move again :) Alli :) -----Original Message----- From: cherokee-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:cherokee-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Barbara Young via Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2014 6:16 PM To: Blue Panther; cherokee@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Cherokee Circle] I'm free Hi Blue Panther, I have heard this story before but not the last part where he is set free.
