Excellent stories to nurture Hope.

I'm sure that I'll be sharing these stories soon. Timeless wisdom speaks to all cultures.

Never get tired

I have read the book many times and now having it on audible makes it better yet listening to it for the first time was so good I’m going to listen to it over and over, very good storyteller. I think people should read the book or better yet get it on audible.

Timing

I was on a webinar recently with Joseph Marshall III. He is a true gift. During the session someone in the session mentioned his book. The book resonated with me deeply. 1. I tell stories to help with the work I do. It allows the content to land. 2. On May 4th my father passed as a result of complications related to COVID 19. The timing of this gift could not have been better.

Be well, All

Gem of A Book

I didn’t know what to expect from this book, but it’s a beautiful and inspiring read. I will be listening again. Anyone feeling a little down or anxious about life (especially creatives), will find that this little book is a goldmine.

Very Inspirational!

One of the few authors who is also a great narrator! This book inspires.

Thank you

You have much to tell through your stories. Your insight is invaluable. Please, Keep Going.

A shortage lesson in wisdom and the value of listening

If you are able to stop and listen, not just with your ears but with your heart, this book will open something valuable within you. Doesn’t matter who you are, your culture or even your age. There are things here for all.

Something that helped me get the most out of Marshall’s book was to slow down the narration speed from the regular 1.0 to .8. Not sure why that made a difference but it did. He does an excellent job of reading.

This is definitely a book I will listen to again. It helped me recognize and remember some of the things that are so fundamentally important in our efforts to understand ourselves and become good human beings.

Great

I loved the way the author transmits the wisdom given by his grandparents. As always, it is a pleasure to hear about him and his culture.

Give Joseph a try if you havent

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.
