I belong to the Ho-Chunk-Gra Nation. I am from the Elk Clan. I am a grandfather. I do not consider myself holy or sacred I just have a strong belief.


MY DAILY PRAYER!
Waxop’ini Xetera I am nothing but a pitiful human being who is un-worthy of your love an ask for blessings for all of creation. I am so humble to be able to enjoy your creation. Thank you for this breath of life you have given me, thank you for this spirit I carry that is yours. I ask for blessing's for the beings who are at the four corners of this island. I ask blessings for my enemies, that they may worship you an have nothing between you and them, bless their hearts an minds that they may pray for their worries and concerns. Pi-na-gi-gi-way! All my relations! Bless my children an their children's children for ever how long you want us to be here on your creation. I pray that I am able to say and do the right things that will please you, I am here for you and only you! I love you more than anything or anyone! Overseer I need you in my heart and in my mind! Light and life to all of the four races of human beings.

To walk the Red Road
is to know sacrifice, suffering.
It is to understand humility.
It is the ability to stand naked before
the Creator in all things for your
wrong doings, for your lack of strength,
for your discompassionate way,
for your arrogance - because to walk
the Red Road, you always know
you can do better. And you know,
when you do good things,
it is through the Creator, and you
are grateful.

To walk the Red Road
is to know you stand on equal ground
with all living things. It is to know that
because you were born human,
it gives you superiority over nothing.
