Captive Surrender Quotes

“No hell,” she had advised.  “Creator,” she had pointed skyward, “want people follow Kahnekonriio,” she tapped her forehead, “mean good mind, live with goodness, be kind, no lie.  People “Sonkwiiatisohn” live bad life, evil souls no travel path to stars stay between spirit and this world, witness the living forever.”

“To die most painful to my people.  To lose leader you love much greater.  We know soul not of Mother Earth when die … move to warm, living light.  Spirit guardians take on journey into sky where one walks amongst stars down path to greet those who go before us. Soul feels great peace and understands birth, struggles, love, even death and are renewed.”

“Father, I will not stand at your grave and weep.  You will forever be with me in my heart.  You will be the thousand winds that blow, the diamonds that glisten in the snow, the sunlight which offers warmth, the stars that glow above in a midnight sky and the rainbow that offers it colors to remind us of the joy you have given us.  May the warm winds of Heaven embrace you on your journey.  May your moccasins make happy tracks as you walk along the stars, and may the Creator embrace you for your greatness as you enter there beside him.”
