Something terrible has happened. Me and pretty much everybody else went against Britain because we didn't want to learn British (like who would?). In the end, Britain realized that there was no point in fighting us AGAIN, so they decided to leave us alone. I was so overjoyed about this news that I ran home. But the moment I got there, I couldn't believe what had happened. In front of me was my home... or more like what was left of it. There was a pile of ashes on the ground, and though I didn't want to believe it, somehow I knew that it was my home. I asked the people who lived around there what happened. They told me that some of the British people who were outraged at the fact that we wouldn't give up our land and become part of the British had come with guns, and they took all the members of my family and burned down our house. For some reason, I wasn't surprised. But now I don't have a home, I don't know where my family is, and I don't know what to do. Many people offered to let me live in their homes, but I don't like owing people favours. So, thinking that I had no choice left, I went to join the first nations called the Odawa first nations. But life in here is very difficult. Though everyone is very friendly, their way of a living is very difficult. I miss my family. I wish mama was here.

ReplyDeleteOur way of living is not difficult! Your way of living is difficult! You care about material possessions and you like to wear fancy clothes. I mean we don't care about that at all! We just enjoy what Mother Earth has provided for us, and happily we live every day.
