Back, Thomas!
WELCOME........OSIU AND NAHATI TO ALL NEW MEMBERS
I can not express the pride I found when I returned here. I am proud to say my co-hosts have done so well-When I left care2 there were exactly 115 members-you have grown well and kept the fires burning my dear co-hosts. I also want to thank those of you who sent cards, flowers, and tapestrys to my sisters Beth.s funeral-she also was a member here as well as her own groups she belonged to. Most of you original members knew her as Beth Berrier or Beth B. I love the back ground you co-hosts did here and kept this group going. As a few of you know I lost two sister in less than a month. It has not been easy, but life must go on. I would have returned earlier this year but between the deaths of my youngest and next to oldest sister and a new job it has been slow. I can not praise you enough-and you older members and newer members I say: "MAY THE GREAT CREATOR BLESS EACH OF YOU.AND MAY EARTH MOTHER KEEP YOU WARM UPON HER BOSOM".
cARRY ON MY DEAR CO-HOSTS-May the 4 winds always ride at your back,may the spirits guide and protect you and yours always, and may earth mother always allow you plenty. With tears I move on and will return another day. Be good all. I will visit once in awhile with each of you around the fires.......
I just love the look on Issy's face in that picture...
That is such a great picture!! Issy is absolutely gorgeous! My cousin, also a Dianne who loves wolves, would adore him.

Christi, I finally met Issy........
Hi David!!

Hello Dian it's great to meet you as well!!
Hope your having a fantastic day so far!!
Hiya Christi hope your staying cool and having a great day!!

Gloria, I saw your profile and your writings about yourself I too am not Native American, I'm from the UK. But I like you I have too enjoyed reading and learning about the history, the stories, the traditions and still have much to learn. I feel I cannot respond to certain articles as I do not know enough, but I read with pleasure the information that the Native Americans share with us. I would be so proud too to if I was a true Native American and try to to give thanks to the Great Spirit by helping out where I can to look after Mother Earth and Her creatures.
to you Gloria
Hello. I am new here, my name is Brenda. I was invited by Gloria who is one of my dearest and sweetest friends. I am so happy to be here. I feel very welcomed and at peace by all the kind and loving things that people have shared. Thanks for the warm welcome and the invite. I know I am going to enjoy my time spent here with all of you wonderful and caring people.
Peace to all of you,
Brenda
Thank you Tom for the welcome!! I am really honored to be here and my friends are equally honored that I invited them....it is a great group and hopefully when I learn more stories from my different Native friends, I will be able to share them with all of you........IN SPIRIT

Thanx goes out to Gloria for the invite! I'm sure this group will (and has been) informative. I've always said everytime someone of their own way, culture or sex, that they have nothing to complain about, and why don't they do something to help the people who really got screwed, Native Americans.
Oops, got carried away...
I'll be in and out, but, I'll be here.
Peace
I am new to this circle of light and understanding, there is something deep down within me that honours your old ways of life the ways that you carry into the present day.
I have no stories, but those from within the mind.
I greet you, with love in my heart.. Allan
I have been avoiding to join any new group; but, some times one can not help it! I just couldn't turn down a first invite from Gloria! And then, there is the uniqueness of this group. I believe, I will enjoy it here.
Thanks Gloria for the invite!
I am not Native American, but I find peace and love and spiritual guidance in this room. I am very much into Native history and culture and have many Native friends, including 5 good ones that I hope I can spread some goodwill to while in the ironhouses across the country. they are human too. I learn so much from them. I don't have any stories but I love to hear them and hope you will accept me into your circle.............In Spirit.....Gloria

Hello and glad to be here, feels "serene". I see some friends here already.
I don't see any folder for petitions and wanted to post one, but do not want to offend anyone or the serenity of the group by doing so, even though it involves a Native American and will also clarify for me if I or others may post any relative to Native Americans here. We have over 95 Resversations is a sorid state here in Canada and it is an outrage, oop's here come the tears.
thank you.
Sunshine
