As a young Anglo woman running in fear for her safety and that of her two young children, Juddie Cline-Lindley was guided to the Navajo Reservation. It was there in a windswept, desolate location, that she learned the true meaning of the love of a people. Two cultures crossed and became as one, with the patient teaching of the Navajo who believe in dreams and occurrences where many Anglos care not to tread. It has been said that she is a woman of many facets. One is a tender loving side that is known to children and the elderly. Then there is that of a cop; a fiercely independent survivor, keeping watch over the safety of others. Yet another facet is when she speaks in short, matter-of-fact sentences like the Navajo, the people of her heart and soul. Words can never express the kindred spirit she feels when she is with her family, the Navajo. The warmth that welcomes her like a Pendleton blanket when she retreats to the Rez to renew her inner spirit, sharing smiles and laughter with family, fry bread and ceremonies; children running, horses and sheep. The Rez is her home, the centerpiece of her life.

An Epic Love Story! Have you ever looked at someone and just knew, knew that they were put in your life for a reason? The one person that would be not only your best friend, but would be your absolute everything? That’s how I felt the first time I saw him. That one day when a few little words changed our entire lives forever… Don’t be Afraid, he said. Life can change so quickly. One moment you can be smiling and feeling as if you're walking on clouds and the next, everything you love, everything you treasure crumbles at your feet. I told him to fight, I told him I needed him. We needed him. But there are just some fights that can't be won… He was my angel then, and he’s still my angel now. In a way, I believe he’s still looking out for us, giving us a future. Sometimes it’s as if I can still feel his presence, guiding us and keeping us safe. So, I won’t be Afraid. I'll live. I’ll fight. It’s what he would have wanted. I’ll do it for him…
