Lost on the Way

I am positive that the spirits of those who once inhabited this land still exist.

"The Great Spirit placed me and my people on this land poor and naked. When the white men came we gave them lands, and did not wish to hurt them. But the white man drove us back and took our lands. Then the Great Father (president) made us many promises, but they are not kept. He promised to give us large presents, and when they came to us they were small; they seemed to be lost on the way."

    Beautiful period. Could anyone in America today imagine the plight? Maybe the cell phone is commanding more of your attention?
