Ancient mother
I hear you calling,

Ancient mother
I hear your sound.

Ancient mother
I hear your laughter,

Ancient mother
I taste your tears.


We have been given this sacred opportunity to learn and walk together in a good way.

Hold onto your honor by respecting the ways of your ancestors and never placing yourself above others.

You may have been taught one way to pray, but Creator may have given a different way to pray to another.

You may have been taught that there is only one way to walk this path and that only those like you have the right to learn.

Who is to say, however, that Creator is so limited by separating the two-leggeds at birth into the “worthy” and the “unworthy”?

What human here today has been granted the right to decide what Creator wants from us?

Each of us have a direct line to Creator through our hearts.

Our honor, our joy and our responsibility is to love one enough in a humble way and look for ways to protect our older brothers and sisters…

We are all related.

Elder's Quote:

"The difference between the white man and us is this... you believe in the redeeming powers of suffering. This suffering was done by somebody else, far away, two thousand years ago. We believe that it is up to every one of us to help each other, even through the pain of our bodies... We do not lay this burden onto our God, nor do we want to miss bieng face to face with the Spirit Power. We want no angel or saint to gain it for us and give it to us second-hand."

- Tahca Ushte (John Fire Lame Deer), Minneconjou Lakota
