Today! The Cherokee People are celebrating our Mid-Winter Feast.
This is the cleaning time from the North so we can prepare for the new life coming to us in the Spring from the East.
This is one of our traditional feasts that we celebrate every year at the time the Non Indigenous people call the Winter Solstice.
I would also like to wish the Non-traditional people on here a Happy Holiday season and the best for your New Year. Our Ahni Gaduwa (Cherokee) people celebrate our New Year the first two weeks of October.
(Thank you and until we meet again,)

I watched her in the woods circling a red cedar not much taller than she was. It was her gift back to the woods that had given her so much peace and comfort - even when life outside the woods could be trying. She laid garlands of popcorn and cranberries over the sturdy limbs along with burr acorns and suet in mesh bags. Scattered beneath the tree were sunflower seeds and millet that cardinals and would attract unusual guests - miniature marshmallows were scattered in and around the tree, a sweet touch for woodland friends. A sweet touch, the best part of the gift. She gave, and peace would be given back to her.

"Parents have to demonstrate the value of trust, respect and honor."
Haida Gwaii, Traditional Circle of Elders
Children learn more by watching than by listening. If we want our children to understand and value trust, they know it by watching how adults live their lives! If we want the children to be respectful, they will observe what the adults do and say to each other. We need to walk our talk. We need to remember the children are watching.
Grandfather, help me learn these important values: Trust, Respect and Honor.
Thanks for the sharing,the knowledge,the prayers the wisdom of the ages...The Red Road has become one with us all,and it shows us the way...
