Come Sit!! while I tell you
a story ...Can you feel the warmth
of the fire as we sit around
the the fire..This story is
of a little boy,who like many
of us and our people of both young
and old and our ancestors
of past who had to face the evil
spirit of FEAR
I know that we all
have from time to time.
It was told to me by an elder that
the young braves
would go into the forest
at the start of a full moon
and stay for 2 more by themselves
to learn how to hunt &
survive.
Their parents worried but knew
there was nothing they
could do .As the young braves would
have to face alone
the hunger ,the long days and cold
nights and to deal with
the many spirits of both
good & evil that would
haunt them , as they faced the
light of the day and
the darkness of the night
