“The Prayer is everything. Being willing to make a better prayer at every challenging juncture of our lives is what makes our Universe continually changing and healing.

Each loss and problem and suffering and failure was a misunderstood gift that led me to this perfect moment, filled with love and gratitude.”
“A thing a place a person becomes Sacred when we treat it as Sacred. In this Way, Everything and Everyone can be made Sacred through our mindful Love. This is how we can Heal ourselves and everything else. Mitakuye Oasin…”
