grateful for thus story

Revisado: 09-16-18

the story is worth the listen. the narrator i think furnished many moments with the right kind of emotion...but in an awkward way 25 percent of the time. he made kent's character seem like a whimpy baby. he made kents humility seem like he was humiliated instead of humble. he made kent sound like a child not getting his way.

i know from the story itself that the narrator was too colorful in this way. but hey kent let it fly and get published on audible so apparantly hes happy with it.

maybe its an inside joke between he and the old indian guys about white men who get involved with indians. and that he knew theyd get a laugh when they listened to this when it got done

beautiful

Revisado: 04-11-18

the narration was so powerful, and his son captures you in the knowledge and loving advice being expressed. .making you feel like you feel as the way he must have felt when reading the letters...and that causes me to greatly respect kent his father and the love and compassion he has cultivated and chosen to share over his time here.

the messages i received were too many to keep listening at times and so i had to take pause and reflect quite a bit on this. i spent a month or little more on this one. it enriched me so much and yet i know i will learn just as much new messages when i listen to it a second time.

my father was always there physically but he was not there for me growing up. and so i need to express my thanks to kent and his son for helping me to bridge an important gap that has been left somewhere in my heart..i knew it was there i just didnt realize how deep it was always. it is okay though. and kents words were so powerful for me. i do long for a past of kinship and teaching from a loving father and though i was failed that i am happy still for who i am and am grateful for many things. things like this collection of letters from a man to his son.

it makes me realize that i am only missing what i think i am missing and once i find it it is no longer missing really..if even it came to me in an unexpected way or form. and then too i can share it when the time is right.

thankyou to the Nerburns for this orchestra of beauty kindness compassion wisdom and knowledge. thankyou for the tears of awe and happiness and compassion i wept while listening to the son narrate his fathers gift of heart .

Give Joseph a try if you havent

Revisado: 02-21-18

and if you have then this is a wonderful addition of his stories told to us listeners and it will supplement and enrich your life with insight that seems so simple. yet it has an undeniable and real and positive impact.
yet it was missing from my life and i think we all need it or some form of it and i am sad in my heart sometimes that more of it is not found everywhere or just anywhere and that it seemed to be gone in my own life for a while but this reminded me of the insights and lessons that do exist in my past and also added to them.

i just listened to this book a second time and also had it sent to a friend i grew up with ..
who recently robbed a store to be sent to prison as a cry for life to save him self from the world of drugs he was involved with.
and there isn't a better book id recommend to either someone in dire circumstances like him, or even to one like myself who just needed to be reminded that good things did exist in my past and there is more out there. simple as that.

i think we need to campaign for oor legacy as a country in america to begin modelling our communities after the very natives of our country. theyve had thousands of years of experience here with the land and 99 percent of said experience was while they were entirely one with the land and there was nothing but time and space for their communities to learn how to thrive and work together and form superb teaching systems all without the european styles of war and slavery and imperialism running rampant for all the many centuries of their existence to disrupt it, until it eventually did unfortunately.

i am disgusted with how slowly we have taken as a culture in the united states since the forming of "our country" to become more humble and to value human life and to be tolerant and loving to our brothers and sisters of all kinds.

i am happy when i find people making a difference like Joseph Marshall III . he inspires me to ask myself, how can i also help and contribute to my and everyones legacy to help them be better than we are.

If i had to choose one book

Revisado: 12-18-17

It would be this book. Davids telling is humble in my opinion. he tried as much as he could not to shame what the old ways are while presenting their existence and importance.

Powerful, beautiful.

Revisado: 10-13-17

The narrator is very good. you will hear how he tells stories which help one come to know humble, subtle personality traits and the beautiful way of life of Lakota and other native nations'.

everyone can learn from them and greatly enrich the lives of those around them and themselves through this knowledge.

i applaud Joeseph Marshall III for what he has done and continues to do. it is an important thing and i am glad for it.

I think that this publication should be read in class in middle school and that a new class centered around environmental reciprocity needs to be made and taught in all schools across the worlds nations, including studies involved with people like Robin
