Dream Quote by Louise Erdrich
““One of Tobasonakwut's favorite phrases is andopawatchigan , which means "seek your dream," but is lots more complicated. It means that first you have to find and identify your dream, often through fasting, and then that you also must carry out exactly what your dream tells you to do in each detail. And then the philosophy comes in, for by doing this repeatedly you will gradually come into a balanced relationship with all of life.””
