Shadows
There was a seer who was born an Oglala Sioux in the old days of the "Indian Wars" in America.
He had a vision--a hoop of the nation crossed by two roads--a good "red road" and a bad "black road"--and in the center where the roads crossed-- was a stick which became a tree and bloomed.
This was a symbol of hope to him.
You may read his life story in the book by John Neihardt: Black Elk Speaks published by the University of Nebraska Press ( first edition, 1933).
A good read.
