“The old Indian teaching was that is is wrong to tear loose from its place on the earth anything that may be growing there. It may be cut off, but it should not be uprooted. The trees and the grass have spirits. Whatever one of such growth may be destroyed by some good Indian, his act is done in sadness and with a prayer for forgiveness because of his necessities.” ShouldMayDoneEarthSpiritGrowthPrayerCuttingGrowingTreeSadnessTeachingTearsDestroyedIndianGrassNativeNative AmericanStewardshipNative AmericaNative American IndianGreat Native AmericanNative American Earth Author:Wooden Leg
