Oh, father, mother. What has the world come to? Corrupt men rule our planet, while other, decent people suffer. I would ask you all to spare a few thoughts for those who are without food, without shelter, without clothes on their backs, for they are equal as we are...
May we spare a thought for the children without parents, without friends, who need help in their lives, who need a voice... My friends, we can be that voice.
And finally, spare a thought for the planet, which we destroy every day...
We can make a difference...

Nice thread
A Sioux Prayer
Translated by Chief Yellow Lark -1887
Oh, Great Spirit, whose voice I hear in the winds
Whose breath gives life to the world, hear me
I come to you as one of your many children
I am small and weak
I need your strength and wisdom
May I walk in beauty
Make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset.
Make my hands respect the things you have made
And my ears sharp to your voice.
Make me wise so that I may know the things you have taught your children.
The lessons you have written in every leaf and rock
Make me strong--------!
Not to be superior to my brothers, but to fight my greatest enemy....myself
Make me ever ready to come to you with straight eyes,
So that when life fades as the fading sunset,
May my spirit come to you without shame.
