Section Two:
The Old Ways

It’s not hard for me to relate to go back to a time where the pace a whole lot slower than it is today.

Because I brought my children up in a moss bag, because I ah when I was six years old my mom and dad made a great big feast with old people circling around one woman said that the moss bag resembles like the baby is warm in  a womb and its warm  and then it gets cold  and to keep it warm you put ti iin a moss bag that was a dream of one mother. It’s a long legend

It’s you swing the baby when it starts to cry and then they sing a little bit.

I guess you’d call them lullaby’s, you know if you’re talking in English. Yep there was, but i guess they’re all cost now
