True power comes when wisdom walks beside vision
Long ago, in a time when animals spoke and walked like humans, Bear and Eagle were guardians of the land.
Bear was the keeper of the earth — strong, steady, and wise. He taught the people how to heal with roots, how to live with the seasons, and how to stand with courage. His paws dug into the soil, always grounded.
Eagle was the guardian of the sky — sharp-eyed, graceful, and full of vision. She soared above the clouds, watching over the people, carrying their prayers to the Creator. From above, she saw the path ahead, even when it was hidden.
One day, a great storm came — wind tore the trees, and lightning cracked the sky. The people were afraid.
Bear stood tall to protect the forest. Eagle flew through the storm to find the sun. When she returned, she whispered to Bear, and together, they led the people from fear into peace — earth and sky, strength and vision, walking as one.
From then on, Bear and Eagle became a symbol of balance — reminding us that true power comes when wisdom walks beside vision, and when we honor both the ground beneath us and the sky above.
