The Trail That Matters
Most, Is The Trail Of A True Human Being.
The soul would have no rainbow, if the eyes had no tears

I was warmed by the sun, rocked by the wind, and sheltered by the trees as other Indian babes. Geronimo

Chief Joseph's Surrender Speech
Tell General Howard I know his heart. What he told me before, I have it in my heart. I am tired of fighting. Our Chiefs are killed; Looking Glass is dead, Ta Hool Hool Shute is dead. The old men are all dead. It is the young men who say yes or no. He who led on the young men is dead. It is cold, and we have no blankets; the little childern are freezing to death. My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food. No one knows where they are - prehaps freezing to death. I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my Chiefs! I am tired; my heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever.
Chief Joseph
It makes no difference as to the name of the God,
since love is the real God of all the world.
There are no dreams without hope.
I want to thank the Great Spirit for the gifts that I have received and for the ones to come. Thank You
