"The Beginnings of the Maasai" is a creation myth that talks about the creation or beginning of the Maasai tribe and how their life revolves around the divine and nature. The given passage is also evidence of how the tribe revere and maintain a relationship with certain entities of god and their overall 'love' for all things including nature.

<span>Don't take childhood for granted.I would say this is the main message in the above passage that parents should inculcate in their kids to enjoy their energy and be aware that they will not always have it and that life changes and tends to become much more sober as we get older but at the same time not to think that old age necessarily means life comes to an end especially when we preserve a child-like wonder in the world all our lives.</span>
