So Live Your Life – Chief Tecumseh (A Native American Poem)

so live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart trouble no one for their religion respect others in their view and demand that they respect yours too 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 pass 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 food and the joy of living if you see no reason to give thanks the blame lies only on yourself abuse no one and no thing for abuse turns the wise into fools and robs the spirit of its vision 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 you
