we are the power
in everyone
we are the dance
of the moon and the sun
we are the hope that will not hide
we are the turning of the tide

This reinforces my deep believe that white man ( I am one by the color of my skin) needs to give back the land to the people who took good care of it for so long.

I will never forget the day Florence told us this was coming. Do we remember what she said was coming for 2011?? I remember what she said. I also remember she told us to be strong and never forget our prayers…The sacred springs is still there, we need to go to where it came from to see it again…Tuiinchii Shii tuii

The Spring on the mountain is our Genesis spot, Florence was with us while Toby’s crew filmed. Her spirit lives on in our spiritual leader and in our belief in the Winnemem lifeway. We believe that the spring has followed the direction of the water guardian who came to us during our visit there with our relatives from the Navajo people who came to assist us in praying for all the water of the world. Too many companies are taking the waters of this land for profit, bottling it to sell to people who believe they can no longer drink from their own tap. We say fight this globalization effort, put your own filter on your home tap and drink it, respect the water as a relative. We will continue our lifeway never doubt that. Those of you who wish to join us at the spring contact us and we will introduce you to the water and the holy ones who watch over us all. Those of you too far away, continue to pray for the water we come from, but also continue to pray for your own waters; keep your sacred fires burning and help keep the Earth balanced.

My heart hurts with the pain of this news. I wanted to go up to the Spring this Summer….I feel that after the passing of Gramma Flora, the energy and medicine of her went with the spring. There will be someone to return the sacred waters, they have not been born as yet…..Walking Gentley…Grandmother Tonya Whitedeer, Clans Mother of the Bear Clan of Medicine Creek Metis- >>>>————>

The Native American pipe-carrier with whom I used to work reminded us repeatedly that without the water there could be no life… Sad to say, we have placed ourselves upon a difficult path; what will it take to wake us up? People like you; thank you for your wonderful work. And be not dispirited; anyone can help by visualising the water flowing again…

I’m so sad to hear this. It does feel like a symbol for the issues to come. Thank you for sharing your stories.
