This short story reflects Coyote as the protector of earth and his work
in the planet. He killed monsters and the evil for people and he taught languages
and how to hunt and what are the right fruits and vegetables. That’s why there
are Indians in whole world speaking different languages. He always was
traveling from place to place he was looking for things that needed to be done.
Coyotes gave each Indian their own names as well.
One day Coyote had almost everything done and he wanted to go to the
place where he started. Shows up Old Man and he said he was chief of the earth
and at first Coyotes did not even know about that mysterious man. After that,
Coyote realized that old man was chief and he begun to respect and decided to
leave because all his work was done. Old man had a great home for him, old man
returned to say that himself and coyote were leaving and they will be back when
the earth woman is very old.
CHARACTERS
Coyote: I imagine him as movies where say something like "red face". "The pale faces" (americans) always say to Indians red face or red-skinned. I think that he was an indian as movies demostrate. Mystical creature almost as a God for them. He was wise, funny, intelligent and ugly.
Old man: He was very old, he was wise too and patient.
Those quotes means a lot to me because I often thought about death as something awful but over time I think that death is the next step to peacefulness and happiness because you become relax and all pain is gone. You meet the paradise. However when someone who we love dies it is something that we cannot forget or get over it. We can feel better but never forget completely.
