I am also very intrigued by the Native American Indian and their beliefs. I enjoy connecting to one of their web sites called the Native Web. My dad lived near the Rosebud reservation in South Dakota when he was a kid and taught me to appreciate the Native American Indian beliefs. Here is one of my favorite Native American Prayers. Oh, Great Spirit Whose voice I hear in the winds, And whose breath gives life to all the world, hear me, I am small and weak, I need your strength and wisdom. Let me walk in beauty and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset. Make my hands respect the things yours have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice. Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people. Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock. I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy - myself. Make me always ready to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes. So when life fades, as the fading sunset, my Spirit may come to you without shame. - Chief Yellow Lark, Lakota -
