“And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of all things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being.” – Black Elk <\/span><\/p>\n

Earth, Teach Me<\/strong>
\nEarth teach me quiet – as the grasses are still with new light.
\nEarth teach me suffering – as old stones suffer with memory.
\nEarth teach me humility – as blossoms are humble with beginning.
\nEarth teach me caring – as mothers nurture their young.
\nEarth teach me courage – as the tree that stands alone.
\nEarth teach me limitation – as the ant that crawls on the ground.
\nEarth teach me freedom – as the eagle that soars in the sky.
\nEarth teach me acceptance – as the leaves that die each fall.
\nEarth teach me renewal – as the seed that rises in the spring.
\nEarth teach me to forget myself – as melted snow forgets its life.
\nEarth teach me to remember kindness – as dry fields weep with rain.
\n– An Ute Prayer<\/span><\/p>\n
