Great ~ Buffalo Sister ~
We honor your courage & strength ...

We honor you, who came to us from the mighty Buffalo Nation, to roam the golden plains that our Ancestors also walked ...

And when the great hunger was fast upon the People, you offered up your own life so that we might live.

You taught us to live in harmony with our Earth Mother ...

Your gentle wisdom enlightened us to understand that when the time comes to drop the Robe of Physical Life, we must leave something good of ourselves behind to benefit the generations yet to come.

From you we learned to never take more from the land than we need . . . to give freely of ourselves, without fore-thought of what we might receive in return ...

As the Ancestors sing a song of praise to you noble sister, we give thanks to ~ Wakan Tanka ~ for allowing us to walk this Good Path with you.

Thank you, Anni! :-) It was quite a trick to get the video timing to sync up with Arvel's violin ... but it finally came together fairly well at the end, after many, many shifts, twists, turns and changes along the way. :-) Having made a few of them now yourself, I know you know what I mean. ;-) Thanks for rating as well my friend. I appreciate it. Best blessings to you! :-) oxoxo
