I long to waft the sweet smoke over my face, drink slowly the yaupon tea, chant and sing while slowly stomp-dancing around the sacred fire. I would rather feel the earth and hear the birds than watch a pukin TV show. Material things are trinkets, but faith and prayer bring us closer to the Spirit/God.

Someone would think I sit outside just doing nothing, but I am enjoying what our Father has provided. The bike ride does sound fun though ;o)

The American Indian is now a myth for these youngsters--just old black and white photos...

"Yaupon tea"?
Isn't the scientific name of Yaupon, "Ilex vomitorious" or some such? I alway thought that was due to its ability to induce that state to the digestive system.....I'd have to hesitate before trying it as a tea...
