about Kenya
On Saturday evening I spoke with Sr. Bernadeth Hilmar in our livingroom. She is a missionary, and she had been in Africa for many years. She told me that she went to Kenya where she shared with people from several tribes like Turkanas, Massai and Kikuyu. The Turkanas live in the Northwest of Kenya, and they raising camels. The women and men wear almost the same cloths. They have especial ceremonies for each activity every day. Bernardeth said that the Massai are more nomadic because they have a lot of cows, so they have to move around looking for grass to fed thier animals. When there is not rain in Kenya for a long time, the Massai have an especial dance to ask for the rain. For this tribe cows are so important, they do not want to educate thier children because if tey became professionals, they will forget the cows. The other tribe is the kikuyu, they are more rich because they have the best land of Kenya and they work in the agriculture.Bernardeth told me that she had a great experience in Kenya. I did not aske her about go back, but I am sure that she wants that because when we were talking, she was so exciting
fed is past tense…feed is more active..also i think you should use “excited” not exciting…wow, sounds like you have a very interesting friend, but i dont think keeping your children from receiving an education is the answer to having your children not forget about the livestock, i think this a good example of raising you children to have pride in their heritage and culture especially teaching the kids about the importance of maintaining the family affairs…what do you think?
