In a sense, the American Indian lived a freer life than any other race. They had no boundaries, and many lived in teepees that were cool in the summer and warm in the winter. They moved south in cold weather and north when it was hot. They ate off the land and kept it in good condition without becoming slaves to it. They wore the very best furs and rode the best horses, and they worshiped God in the purest sense. Every morning the Cherokee prayed near the stream and then bathed in it - summer and winter. He protected his honor and that of his tribe. He did not litter the land nor contaminate the streams, and he fought when he had reason to fight. Because he lived so close to nature, he was something of the poet and loved deeply. These were Indians and they left us that legacy AND this is a beautiful story>>True is True> A Cherokee Feast of Days, Volume 11
