Cool. I think it’s important to be able to know how to swim.

Apologies, yes Tipi? What is the meaning of the smoke? Or is it just to warm up inside?

My people didn't use tipis, but a tipi was the perfect abode for the Plains people,and most of them lived in them but. The main reason was the shape, which was perfect for the harsh Winters and high winds-because they wouldn't tip over or blow away. The smokehole, or smoke flap, let smoke from a fire pit leave the tipi. Extreme cold in wintertime made a fire necessary in winter.

That’s cool, very interesting bro. I’m asking because we, in Samoa have traditional houses as well, made out of wood and flax and catered for mostly shelter from the blazing sun :)

There are no elitists in Christ. Either in our ability in individualism to make productive our spiritual walk; nor in the exclusivity of our inability to make productive our spiritual walk. We are all One under Christ, and we are all brought from death into life by His grace. That verse Sister applies to us all, as does this One applying to you as well:

(Romans 12:5): ...New International Version (NIV)

5 so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.

What walls and circumstances we all go thru, although unique to us at the time is for the purpose to bless the whole of His body and not just a selected few. Your testimony of this truth in 1 Corinthians 1:18-31 is for you today I imagine, but for sure it is a truth and reality that spans all of His body and Children. May God Bless you with His Word Sister as you contemplate and meditate on His Word.I pray it lifts you up to Himself in confidence and Joy, and purpose.

I will not say no to what you have said wise one, because it is the truth. I have my testimony everyone has theirs; However, I know a few who would think they are anything by their personal efforts ..., I give God all the glory, I give Him all the praise for ever and ever Amen

No, sorry. If you look up the book 'In the Land of the Grasshopper Song,' you can see some pictures in there.

My great-grandfather, Bernard Jerry, is in there. Him and I-ees Steve(my cousin)were the two men who impressed the schoolmarms in school. I've been to the old school sites, but the buildings are long gone.
