You have to learn to forgive each other no matter what words were used and try not to
swear. Swearing is a sign of weakness and there’s no meaning in those words. There’s
nothing, it’s blank, and people need to realize these things.

Enjoy life each and every day because there maybe never another tomorrow. If tomorrow
comes it will always be beautiful. It will be a beautiful sun up. Always worship the sun up,
smell the flowers and enjoy life. Enjoy the sunsets because they’re beautiful too. Enjoy the
Rockies. God put us on this earth to enjoy the sunrise the beautiful earth the sunsets and
the beautiful hills, the Rockies and everything like that.

Everything is good in life, and no matter where you live, enjoy it. As long as you have a
meal to three meals a day that’s all you need, and to work. To walk around for nothing,
it’s not life. You have to work to enjoy life.

Teach one another one thing at a time, that’s what I believe in. Give a compliment each
day, oh you dress nice, you look nice and it’s a beautiful day, things like that. Enjoy each
other’s company just to say hello and grab a coffee together. Even have water together but
just talk for five minutes.

Say hello, how are you doing today? Know how your fellow person is doing each and
every day. Enjoy, no matter what because you’ll never get it back. God will always look at
you that way. The Creator will look at you because you gave something.
I grew up with my family. I really love animals, I love the mountains, and like in our
language we say tsa chu magunichinagha that means beautiful mountains. That’s the way
we look at life, that’s the way we live. I live on the reserve and it’s beautiful there by my
house. You can see the Rockies. Always pray. Bruce taught me one word for all animals
and birds and for children to play like them. Even ourselves to enjoy life to the fullest
each and every day. Enjoy each day because you can’t go back in time but you can always
proceed. Try to teach the good things in life about today and tomorrow. Today’s beautiful
regardless of anything; people might look at it in a negative way but I don’t think of it as a
positive in life. I enjoy each and every day.

In my life I’m not going to die with money in my pocket. I’ll die whichever way I’m put. It
doesn’t matter. I know my soul is going to a good place because I saw it. I always tell my
grandchildren, even my granddaughters, if I go today at least I gave you something, but
just as a joke. I’m just teasing you I tell them. I always tease my grandchildren and make
them laugh.
