The Legend

Awakened by the sun in the early mornings, I have traveled through many free and vast lands. Under the evening moon, I have stood with my native American friends and heard the stories of the ancient people. As I looked into their eyes, I felt my own spirit join with the others. I have witnessed their wars, floated through their visions and felt the love of their touch.

On another day, I walked with a pioneer and a cowboy. We worked many cattle over days of long rides. We earned our keep through the sweat and strength of our body and spirit. We built a nation and cultivated a civilization.

I have enjoyed the company of children. They indulge me as the inspiration to their fantasy. I felt their pride in our friendship as we spent many care-free days of fun and play. The care and time they gave to me helped to mold their character and taught them responsibility.

Today, I enjoy the prestige of an athlete. The most popular in all the world. My style crosses all cultures and disciplines. Through God's artistry, I carry all the markings of a true champion. To meet me is to fill your heart with the genuine innocence of your childhood dreams. To know me is to fill your soul with inspiration. I bring to life all of the honor, dignity and presence of my immortal ancestors -

I am the Legend of Atahri.
