Every moment that a child is born our ancestors cry out with unbridled joy and burst forth with tears of pride and passion.
They see within each child's birth the spirit of every woman and man that has ever walked upon the face of this earth.
Their exuberance is contagious to the living.
They give to each child their gifts of knowledge, love and wisdom. The child in turn now becomes all powerful and begins to share its world and destiny through the cultivation of its ancestral history and awareness. It now become all the things that we have ever been and have the potential to be.

All of this possibility is within each child at birth. A child who must give thanks to its elders and creators as it clams its rightful and prominent place within the history of man.
This is the legacy of our sacred ancestral birth.
