Everything is a matter of Attitude,
and every Attitude matters!
Native Americans refer to him as "The Ambassador of The People." They call him Grandfather as a matter of respect, but it has nothing to do with age.
Eagle says; "I was born at an early age... and that's the only reason I'm as old as I am." Eagle has climbed many mountains during his lifetime, and has discovered that to reach the top, you must be willing to suffer the consequences along the way. He says: "Everything is a matter of attitude, and every attitude matters. Some people wish they could climb a mountain; some will hope they'll climb the mountain; some will pray that they climb the mountain. That's well and good, but if you expect to get to the top,I would suggest that you wish, hope, and pray along the way!" He says that there are many mountains in life, and he advices: "Don't waste time looking for the mountain; the mountain will find you soon enough!"
The mountains he speaks of are not the mountains most people think about. He says: "There are mountains of education, mountains of experience, and mountains of pain to mention a few. There are also mountains of love, compassion, and understanding. These mountains surround us, but many people don't see them. Others see them but don't recognize them. Some people think that the mountains block their path, but mountains can be moved or removed with faith the size of a mustard seed."

According to Eagle: "God has Blessed each of us. We're all here on assignment, and we each have our own special gifts, talents... and an assignment. We can use those gifts in a postive way, or we can use them in a negative way. The choice is ours. As for me, I've made many mistakes during my life and no doubt will make more. However, I try to learn from each mistake and use that knowledge to help others through theirs."
