This work is a compilation of quotes, comments, maxims, adages and sayings that the author has heard, read, collected or been exposed to during his many years of residing in Arizona and living the western cowboy way of life. The last of the lower 48 states admitted to the Union in 1912, Arizona has a well-known and documented history of the “old west” and Native American habitation and culture. The author has nurtured a long-term interest and study of this “American Frontier” period from 1865 to 1895, a thirty-year time span of the iconic cowboy saga and unfortunate American-Indian wars that has come to define the rugged American cultural image that helped shape the west. This historic, and often inaccurately romanticized, timeframe represents a period where the cowboy and Native Indigenous people chose a life of self-reliance and independence, of courage and strength, of perseverance and determination to live abundantly in nature and with a respect and inner spiritual connection to the land (Mother Earth). This inner wisdom, ethics, attitude, moral behavior and specific way of life of these people, the author believes, can serve as inspiration and examples for us to emulate today. The author has attempted through his research, where possible and known, to credit quotes to its original author or tribal Nation. Any mistakes or inaccuracies are entirely the unintended fault of the author and apologies are offered herein. My intention in writing this book and my hope for you, dear reader, is that it will serve as a daily inspirational guide to claiming and living the life of love, peace and joy the Great Spirit meant for you. Perhaps choosing one new quote daily will provide you the opportunity to focus on the thought of wisdom expressed therein and realize its motivational influence on your day. Consider it, meditate on it, and be mindful and aware of the synchronistic message sent to you. You are a light of the world; let your brilliance shine forth as a testament to all the beauty and love that you are.
