It is customary in the Cherokee tradition to take from our fathers and add our words to them, passing them along to still others.

It's customary to cite the sources of the words you "take from" when using them in writing. It's also the law. Thanks for acknowledging where your posts have found their inspiration. Please, however, properly cite as you go so that we may appreciate the author's words as well as your own when you post them. And of course, in order to comply with copyright laws and site policy.

Honesty and integrity inspire me. And now having acted on their inspiration in this matter, I'm satisfied that I've made my point and that inspiration remains unharmed.
