Princess Nyeleti: The Golden Beads Speak

Princess Nyeleti, whose name in her native Tsonga, means bright star, is a young girl, proud of her culture and her heritage. She had passed under the mistletoe to enter her magnificent home, then she tippy-toed, barefoot up the stairs to her bedroom in the corner, careful Ntsako, and her other sibling, do not hear her. This was a rare and sacred moment, one she had been prepared for since birth, by her aunt Ndatira. She positioned herself on a rug, next to her bed. Once seated, she stared through her window, at the very moment of the great conjunction. Her golden beads remained clasped in her soft and dainty hands, as she sat stoically and entranced, she could hear the golden beads vibrating and thereafter she received a secret code, straight from the stars, where all her departed ancestors dwelled. So, this fleeting moment in time, which had the entire world wowed, was very significant for the African child, more specifically, for Princess Nyeleti, the gifted girl, who is destined to relieve others of their yokes and their burdens.
