Read this excerpt from "The Medicine Bag." "My father in his early manhood," Grandpa began, "made a vision quest to find a spirit guide for his life. You cannot understand how it was in that time, when the great Teton Sioux were first made to stay on the reservation. There was a strong need for guidance from Wakantanka, the Great Spirit. But too many of the young men were filled with despair and hatred. They thought it was hopeless to search for a vision when the glorious life was gone and only the hated confines of a reservation lay ahead. But my father held to the old ways." What message does Grandpa's dialogue in this excerpt reveal to the reader?

    He gives the message that his father different from other young men who were desperate to search for a vison preferred to find a spirit guide for his life. So it means that he preferred finding the guidance for his spirit more than a glorious life. This is a philosopical approach, questioning life and how to fulfill your spirit. It could be through faith or meditation. But most of the people prefer enjoying life rather than questioning. Even in his time, young people chose the easiest way and his dad made the difference.
