Be the “B”

I saw this beautiful photo of a buffalo and it reminded me of one of my favorite quotes from Wilma Mankiller. She was the first female chief of the Cherokee nation. I’ve shared it with others before.

“Cows run away from the storm while the buffalo charges toward it – and gets through it quicker. Whenever I’m confronted with a tough challenge, I do not prolong the torment, I become the buffalo.”

It’d be great if I remembered this all the time! Don’t be a cow – be a buffalo! Hopefully the challenges and obstacles melt away as we continue on in this season of hope.
