"Every day we remind ourselves of that seventh generation, for they too should have a beautiful life like us. We talk about the cycle of life knowing that every one of have to find our peace to walk that journey … we call the Red Path. Not to have any ill feelings or bad feelings, but no matter what you have to walk. The elders remind us you have to walk in peace to find peace within yourself. Don’t wait until you are ready to go to see the Creator. Teach your little ones all the virtues that the Great Spirit gave us. It’s about love, compassion, respect, honor. For each person, [each] little one, deserves that."
