Storytelling has earned its place as the most important tradition humans possess. The most important reason for this being that every story contains a lesson to instruct and educate the audience. Stories teach us honor, love, forgiveness, and to strive for better than we have. Indigenous cultures could not exist without the influence from past generations. We are people of tradition who are the beneficiaries of ancestors who handed down lessons and knowledge from one generation to the next. We also pride ourselves on leaving a legacy of knowledge for our descendants to utilize, so that the cycle continues and our culture persists. Our ability to learn from our ancestors' past decisions and use that knowledge to give ourselves an insight to who we are, where we came from, and how to be who we are is the greatest gift we were given. Our tradition of storytelling facilitates this transfer of knowledge. As a result, storytelling remains to this day the single most important tradition we can take part in. Enjoy the page... |
