Jordan's blog #8

I think that this section was kind of interesting. There's one part that I would like to talk about and it's the part when Tayo looks for his cattle. It's kind of interesting that Betonie had the vision of Tayo going to get Josiah's cattle. But I guess he must be someone important to recieve visions like that. While lookin for the cattle he finds himself in a white man's coral and he felt that the white man never stole but he lied. But in all actuality when you lie, I believe that your stealing. Your stealing the truth from the people that your lying. But I guess everybody sees everything in different ways. But while in the coral he can't find any of the cattle. He searches hard but still can't find them. As dawn draws near he notices a mountain lion. He pretty much asks the mountain lion for help in finding the cattle. The mountain lion guides him to them in his own special way. This has a relation to hawaiian people because we have different gods for guidance through different things. This also shows how Tayo's respect and understanding for the Indian culture is increasing. I guess now since he is doing these things he is being healed from the spirits of his ancestors.
