About this episode

I read so many stories in preparation for this week’s podcast and I was so struck by the beauty of these stories from the ancient Americas. The reoccurring themes of the elements of nature, the wind, water, earth, and the sky, their faith in the natural world, and their knowledge of it were incredible. Their stories are full of respect for the world they live in and I think there is so much wisdom to be found in us now returning to these tales to relearn what many have known to be true since time began. I hope you enjoy this beautiful tale from the Cherokee people.
