Great Spirit, Almighty Healer and Creator of all things, with humbled hearts we gather together to offer up many thanks. We thank you for the gift of life given to us. May we use it for the purpose you have mandated. We thank you for our paths that will guide us through life. We thank you for our Elders that teach us lessons for the present as well as the wisdom of the ancestors. We thank you for our children that will carry the wisdom and lessons to the next generation. We thank you for our family and friends that give us the insight and support we need during our journey. We thank you for the sounds of laughter as children play. We thank you for the calmness of the evening hours when the work is done and we settle in for the night. We thank you for the chorus of the wolves as they call out to Grandmother Moon. We ask for guidance during times of confusion and misunderstanding. We ask for strength when we are low in spirit. We ask for your healing hands to be placed upon those that continue to suffer through diverse diseases and disorders. We ask for a greater spirit of unity among your children during this time, so we may begin the arduous task of bringing back balance. We ask for an end to the things that continue to divide us. May we learn to love and respect each other. We ask for an end to war in a world where we are deeply weary of the violence and disrespect shown throughout the four corners. We ask for an end to government and materialistic control, and ask for greater freedom to do that which must be done. We ask for hardened hearts to soften, closed eyes to open and veils of secrecy be lifted. We ask for an end to the hatred, greed, lust of power and money. We ask for guidance, strength and courage for those that continue to stand against injustice and the destruction of your creation. We ask for freedom for Brother Leonard Peltier who has been incarcerated for a crime he did not commit. We ask for greater understanding of all that surrounds us. We ask for guidance, peace and strength be given to those that have lost hope and are reaching out to others. May we be given your words of encouragement and sympathy to get them through the rough times. We ask for greater compassion for those that are homeless or are struggling in the Reservations located throughout the four corners. We thank you for the wisdom found in the winds. We thank you for the mountaintops that give us the rushing pure waters to hydrate us. We thank you for our daily food and ask for its blessing. We thank you for the rain forests that provide us with the air to breathe. We thank you for all two-leggeds, four-leggeds, swimmers, fliers and crawlers that surround us. May we endeavor to give them the respect they deserve. We thank you for our pets that give us comfort when we are low in spirit. We thank you for the cool evening breeze as it caresses our cheeks. We thank you for the rains that come to bring moisture to the soil and rejuvenates our spirits. Emenv
