Post 4: Time Travel to the Past or Future

A timeline I would like to travel to, it is a very nice place!

I like diversity, I enjoy learning about other cultures, I have always liked mythology in general but the Mapuche mythology is particularly interesting to me. I would like to tell you about a time when these legends are still alive and present in people's minds.

In general, Mapuche mythology is wonderful, its legends go beyond the people of the Wallmapu (ancestral Mapuche territory), from the great Lautaro, who was a very important warrior in the war against the Spaniards, to Antu-Pillán who is the spirit of the sun married to Kuyén, spirit of the moon.

But what does Mapuche mythology have to do with a timeline I want to travel to? Easy, I want to travel to a timeline where the beliefs of the other cultures around us are respected, where we enjoy the knowledge they give us and marvel at every detail of the stories of those who lived in this land hundreds of years ago, and who will continue to live in our minds for a long time to come.

It is probable that the time I want to travel to is the future, but it generates an immense fear in me to think that in reality this cultural diversity will be lost little by little, sometimes I would like to learn much more about all the cultures that surround me but it is impressive how little value is given to them in the television or broadcasting media.

Anyway, I would really like to live a present like that, a multicultural space in which we know how important are the stories and experiences of the ancestors of our peers, and that obviously we respect them, I still have the hope that it will be so.
