Our sympathies to a grieving mother Re: “Appeal from an isolated, grieving mother,” May 1 letter to the editor

During the final minutes of her life, heartbeat fading, my mother was too weak to speak or open her eyes. But 1,500 miles away from where hospice had gently laid her down to die, I felt the strength of her spirit pushing me out the door. So I grabbed cross-country skis from the garage, clicked boots into my bindings and glided across a cold, empty meadow, where I surrendered Mom to the hand of God.

Judith Berman once told me that most of the First People have Trickster tales. But of the hundreds of tribes in North America, only two--and they small tribes--have a female trickster. The female trickster is, apparently, difficult for people to imagine.

So you can imagine my delight when I found one right inside my own culture.


But what, you ask, does it mean . . .?

Trickster is a strange and difficult character, neither a good guy nor an evil one. She exists somewhere in between, a creator of chaos and a provider of a special Something that it seems human beings require. It might be corn and it might be fire. Trickster gets blamed for a lot of the woes of existence, but it seems that without him/her, we're skunked.

I wonder if Pandora was originally a Trickster,  before they allegorized her to hell and back? It bears thinking on.
