In June 1995 at 4:30 in the morning, I went up to the roof top of my house with my sage, sweetgrass and smudge bowl. I was going to greet the sunrise and pray with my prayer pipe.. It was so quiet and everything was still.. there was a light morning fog... I lit the sage smudge and blessed myself, then lit the sweetgrass and prepared and blessed the prayer pipe for the morning ceremony. As I made my morning prayer offerings of tobacco into the pipe bowl, I sat looking to the East, praying with the tobacco as the sun rose.. When the sun came over the horizon, the wind started to blow and the leaves moved ever so gracefully, and the birds awoke and started singing. I lifted my prayer pipe to the Great Creator, to give thanks for all life...
I was mesmerized by the transformation... from complete silence and stillness to the energy of life...
