Well said 246Alexandrea!! Also, Oriah has stated herself... she isn't old enough tto accept 'elder' status. Nor does she call herself 'Indian' or First Nations.
And Daybreak1223 - what exactly do you mean by that statement?
This is a beautiful video, but you've made some pretty liberal changes to Oriah's original text. Her text reads, "...if you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy...' (not "faithful"). Also, there's no reference to "sourcing your life from God's presence." Instead, it's "sourcing your life from its [beauty's] presence." Finally, you've injected numerous misspellings and punctuation errors into Oriah's original text. Maybe it'd be worthwhile to redo this with her actual poem....
