I was also at a very young age told that i was A " INDAIN "CHEROKEE and as i set here today and think there has always been the little things that shows me to be proud of my blood. I will never denie it. when i was in my teens i heard some people talk about me and they said look she is not a American she is A INDAIN i turn around and said i am more of a AMERICAN then you are i am a NATIVE AMERICAN INDAIN and at one time in my life i was teased about that and now i am pround to stand up infront of any one and say i am INDAIN and proud of it. There is times that the woods call to me come walk in me and i have always walk in them when they call on me to do that i feel as if they want me to feel the past .
