~~That Old River~~
We made our journey through the woods To sit on, that old river bank. Where we sat laughing and fishing As the dragonflies filled the air. And there are Four Corners of the Earth that we talk about, the Four Colors of people, and the Four Winds. You see the winds-they are spirits. We saw the Great Spirit's work in almost everything: sun, moon, trees, wind,and mountains. If we respected Mother Earth, we would not throw garbage on Her, nor would we put poison in Her. We would not misuse Her in any way. Mother Earth is like She is today because of the mental pictures of previous generations as well as the mental pictures of our own generation. If we want the environment to change, each individual must change their mental picture. As within, so without.
