I came to live here where I am now between Wounded Knee Greek and Grass Greek。Others came too, and we made these little grey houses of logs that you see, and they are square. It is a bad way to live, for there can be no power in a square.

You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything tries to be round. In the old days when we were strong and happy people, all our power came to us from the respectful circle of the nation, and so long as the circle was unbroken, the people were getting rich. The flowering tree was the living center of the circle, and the circle of the four quarters nursed it. The east gave peace and light, the south gave warmth, the west gave rain, and the north with its cold and strong wind gave strength and continuous power.

This knowledge came to us from the outer world with our brief. Everything the Power of the World does is done in a circle. The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. Birds make their nests in circle, for theirs are the same as ours. The sun comes forth and goes down again in a circle. The moon does the same, and both are round. Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves.

Our places were like the nests of birds, and these were always set in a circle, the nation’s circle, a nest of many nests, where the Great Spirit meant for us to nurse our children.

But the “white people” have put us in these square boxes. Our power is gone and we are dying, for the power is not in us any more. You can look at our boys and see how it is with us. Where we were living by the power of the circle in the way we should, boys were men at twelve or thirteen years of age. But now it takes them very much longer to grow up.

One day a very wealthy father took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people can be.

They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of 36 would be considered a very poor family. On their 37 from their trip, the father asked his son, “ How was the trip?”

“It was 38 , Dad .”

“Did you see how poor people can be?” the father asked.

“Oh yeah?” said the son.

“So what did you 39 from the trip?” asked the father.

The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they have four. We have a pool that 40 to the middle of our garden and they have a creek (小溪) that has 41 end. We have lanterns（路灯）in our garden and they have the 42 at night. We have a 43 piece of land to live on and they have fields that go 44 our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they always serve 45 . We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have 46 around our property（财产）to protect us but they have friends to protect them.”

With this the boy’s father was 47 .

Then his son 48 , “Dad, thank you for showing me how 49 we are.”

Too many times we 50 what we have and only pay attention to what we don’t have. What is one person’s 51 object is another’s most valuable thing. It’s all 52 on one’s perspective (视角).Think about what would happen if we all gave 53 for what we have, 54 worrying about what we don’t have.
