Humankind must
be a steward of the Earth;
Caretakers for
all that dwells upon it; To be of one heart with all things.
Human beings must learn to share the tears of every living
thing, To feel in our hearts the pain of the wounded animal,
each crushed blade of grass;
Mother Earth is our flesh; the rocks, our bones;
The rivers are the blood of our veins.
We are all children of God. Traditions are open to anyone
who wants to learn.
