Three Indian women died and were brought before the Creator
for judgment.
Creator said,"I will let you into the Spirit World
if the beliefs you lived by were proper. Tell me what you believed when
you were alive."
The Lakota woman said, "I have always believed in
the Grandfathers and the Generations, and that is how I lived my life."
"Fine," said Creator. "You may enter and
sit on my left.
What did you believe?" he asked of the Arapaho woman.
"I have always believed in Goodness, and I have
tried to live my life in a good way."
"Fine! You may also enter and sit on my right."
Then he turned to the third woman, a Navajo. "And
what do you believe?"
The Navajo woman said, "I believe you're sitting
in my chair!"
