My nickname in Ojibwemowin means friend.
My favorite Ojibwe word is Waabi - the very basic meaning is vision.
To me, vision does not mean what is right in front of you, it is what is around the corner, possibly not even within a day or a weeks journey.
The web has opened up this vision for those who choose to look for it. This vision is what the warriors, the Ogitchidaa and Ogitchidaaquay are going to be arming themselves for the next series of battles.
This picture was taken on a walk on sacred grounds by Wiwaste........
Wiwaste was brought to me via SU. She contacted me, we communicated, and she came to visit me in America.
We were married on Malibu Beach on March 6. - I thank the Creator for bring her into my life; she's making me stronger and more aware than I have ever been before.

SACRED FIRE
On April 5th, 2008 a fire was lit in a ceremonial way with a prayer, beautiful songs, and the sound of the drum filling the air. This fire has been taken care of night and day and continues at this moment.
Standing directly across from The William Wildcat Tribal Center in Lac du Flambeau, the site of the "Peaceful Occupation", the fire is a powerful symbol of the strength of "The Ginew" and all who desire the best for our whole tribe.
It is a spiritual connection for us as Anishinabe, a place to put our prayers and tobacco, and a place to put our hurt feelings aside and truly reach out to each other. It can be a place of healing and forgiveness, and remembrance of how it once was when our tribe functioned as a whole.
The fire and all it stands for will continue until our tribal government hears our voice.
Please come and join us, your fellow tribal members, friends, and relatives. All are welcome at the "sacred fire".
