Miracle just turned 7 in late August. There are several variations on the legend depending on the tribe. Your version is one of them. The general gist of all of them is similar though they vary in the details. Some of the eastern religions carry some strangely similar legends, though not about the American bison, of course.

I have arthritis (from Lyme's disease) and have had several spinal fractures due to osteoporosis so walking any distance is rather difficult. Just around the house, etc. is fine, but after about a 1/2 block I run into some problems. I try not to let it keep me from experiencing things and my daughter is very helpful when I travel, as have been my buddies when I travel with them. Hopefully, it isn't noticeable, at least not on short acquaintance.

Hugs.

Thanks for the reply, Zzoo! Jesus, "several spinal fractures" sounds painful beyond belief. I think you are to be commended for just keeping on.... {{{{zzoo}}}}}

We need some good news during this time. I'm stressed, thinking of all we have lost, and worried about the losses to come. It's rough seeing the soldier boys gear up for war. I'm so glad my husband is out of the army THIS TIME! My heart isn't in all the flag-waving- I know what it means...

I'd like to think we have gotten beyond nationalism to something better, like a global village/community, something YOU helped to create on this (previous incarnation of) message board. But perhaps we haven't... If this is a crossroads, perhaps MIRACLE is something we need right now...

Blessings,

Lorraine
