"Spring" Sitting Bull
"Behold my brothers the spring has come; the earth has received the embrace of the sun we shall soon see the results of that love! Every seed has awakened and so has all animal life. It is through this mysterious power that we too have our being.”

The light returns.
The balance holds.
A new cycle begins.
