I think this sculpture is beautiful and unusual.  I was surprise to learn that it's in Ireland and was erected to honor an American Indian Tribe.  Read the story.....

Beautiful.  The various other tribes have been quick to sign up for active miitary duty for the wars this nation has had.  Kudos to my ancestors and relatives.

How beautiful! And I love the story behind it-the spirit of giving from kindred spirits. I'd never heard of this and thank you for posting it @Kachina624.

@Bonkers1.  I wondered if it changes colors?  Seems like it should.

Wow, wow and wow!  Thank you so much. Not only is it touching story but absolutely one of the most beautiful, sculptures. I love it.  To have so little and give so much is the true spirit of love and kindness.
