Live Life to the Fullest
Although written over 200 years ago, these
incredibly wise words by Chief Tecumseh are every bit as relevant today as they
were back then. Chief Tecumseh was
the leader of the Native American Shawnee Tribe, and lived his life as a true
warrior. May his words inspire you
to live your life with passion, integrity and most importantly, without
regrets.
Live Your Life
by Chief Tecumseh
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 grovel 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 no thing, 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 the 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.
