During the Christmas season, one of the traditions in
Ghana was to build a trash house. This trash house was built out of the leaves
from a palm tree. You then spend
Christmas Eve and Christmas morning in it rejoicing the day Christ was
born. This custom symbolized the humble
way that Christ came into the world born in a stable. Although I must confess that, I was never
able to spend the whole night in the palm house. I missed my bed and the nights were
cold. It was Christmas Eve and
my elder brother, Clarence and I decided to climb a tall tree to cut down a few
posts to build our little Christmas house.
While my tall and on the way to becoming fat brother climbed the tree I
stood at the bottom of the tree to point out which of the best limbs to
cut. Suddenly I heard a loud “crack.”
Then before my horrified eyes, Clarence came crashing down from the tree
landing on a pointed tree stump with a loud “thump”. That then punctured his right thigh. Original art Brother ent Heavy sold to a collector. Therefore created Daughter ent Heavy. worth noting Traditional Ghanaian woman is on
