Because of my strong connection to Native Americans, I was especially
interested in a story author Leonard Sweet told in a book of his. It's about
a rite of passage that one tribe had for its boys when they turned 13. On
that birthday a warrior blindfolded the boy and took him several miles from
camp. The warrior then took off the blindfold and left this young teenager
in this dark, dense forest. Now the young man was expected to stay there
for the night and fend for himself. When it got dark, it got really dark. The
trees were so dense he couldn't see the moon or the stars. Oh, but he could
sure hear: those eerie sounds of the wind, the howls of the wild animals nearby,
the rustling of the leaves that sounded like an approaching enemy. For most
boys it was a night without sleep. And then the dawn began to break, and the
young man could then see the forest as it really was - the flowers blooming,
the majestic trees swaying in the wind, the wildlife scurrying around for food -
and then the biggest surprise of all: the boy would see an imposing male figure
standing in the woods only a few yards away. He'd be startled at first until he
recognized the man. Unbeknownst to this frightened young warrior, his father
had been there the whole time, ready to protect his son against anything that
might harm him.
