About Me

Ya'at'eeh(Hello) My name is Tee Willie. My clans are Tsenahabi[nii(Sleeping Rock people) Born for the To’aheedliinii(Flowing Together Water people) My maternal grandfather are Naakaii Dine’(Mexican Clan) and My paternal grandfather are Tsenahabi[nii(Sleeping Rock People). Im 6'1" Black hair, Brown eyes, a Outgoing person, Funny, Honest, Sweet, Caring, Gets along with people, Etc... My favorite colors are Blue, White, Yellow, and Black. Those are the colors Of our Four Scared Hills... I'm right handed person... I love the smell of Mother Nature, and Navajo Tea in tha Morning. Im Navajo(Dine')and Proud of my Heritage. I Speak my language. That Makes me true to myself. My favorite time of the years are Summer and Winter! Thats when our Sqawdances starts and also night way ceremonys begins. I like the sound of Singing group and beating Drums its what makes me to dance. There are few friends that I'm willing to travel cross-country to go and see. Most of my close friends, are my family. I don't smoke...but in Ceremonys I do. I don't drink(killed my Big Brother at the of age 27). My religion is to be Navajo and learn tha ways, Thats Native Pide. My beliefs are Gods(Father Sky, Mother Earth, Charging Woman, and Etc.....). I'm very involved with Ceremonys, Powwows and other places as will... I'm a member of Powwow a group. -----College---- I'm in NTC in Crownpoint NM (Navajo Technial College) for two years, then onto UNM-G (University of New Mexico-Gallup). I'm taking AutoTech.(Love Fixing Old and New). I have one piercings, in my lift ear for my spirt. No tattoos Too Native to Get one, like Fore Fathers said "Respect our Bodys". Im a traditional person everyday(Wearing traditional bowgruads, and Necklaces). I live on the Rez. Its Pretty. Im Native American from the Dine' Nation. I went to WHS(Wingate High School) in NM, graduated From there with a Tile that is Mr. Wingate Of tha Year 2005-2006. But still have it to this day. I sing and dance in the Ceremony that I go. I get that from my Step Grandfather(Willie John) but I still think of him as my Real GrandFather. "He was always there for me. Hes tha one who told me about our songs plus told me storys of what happen in tha Past and Tails of Navajo ways". I also am into Rodeos(Oak Canyon, Jones Ranch NM). Im a Bare Back Rider and Bull Rider. I got that from my Uncle(Avry John). I also like dancing in Powwows. Im a Tradational Dancer and Grass Dancer. I also was The Lead Singer Of "Shadow Feather"(2005-2006)at Wingate. Now I made a Group in Crownpoint NM Called "Bay Wolf" But now its "Shadow Hawks" From Diff. Directions and I am tha Head Singer plus tha Lead Singer, also My good friend Garrick Lee Begay(--AkA--Candy Man) From Mentmore NM, he is also tha Second Lead Singer and tha Head Drumer. These I get from good friends From Wingate, Pinedale, And Tha Best Teacher Ever, Tha One Who Taught Me Tha Song Mr. Sam Anderson. All of these I have Repect for. In my way of defining it would be:--- is showing Harmony, Balance, and Peace. Hozhoni, the Harmonious Balance between Human and Nature.-----------More about me:-------When I get "BORED" all I do is go out and chop wood or go up in tha hills Singing to myself, playing my "Flute" or playing my "Hand Drum". Its "Smoothing" when You hear me Play and Sing. I close my eyes and Wonder into the Music that I play. Plus thats what my Family likes to hear. Hearing it early in the morning before they get up, makes a smile on their Face. In somedayz Staffs from Diff. Schools and ask me to do performents so i do... I sing to tha little ones(kids, children that wish to learn) which Im telling you(not a joke), I sing to them. Some may Cry but it Heals after I sing. When I tell them the meaning of tha songs they look up that me and ask if they could learn those songs. I tell them that it comes of with in(tha mind, body, soul, and spirit). From than on they understand what I was singing about. When people in all 50 diff. places ask if I could sing to them, I sing. Even in a Public place Ill sing for them. It is with in my heart that I sing if they ask. I show them who we are. Its my songs that some people hear and said "What wonderful Music" They give me all kinds of comments. Some People ask "Why do U sing" I say "Its in my Blood, Soul, Heart, Spirt,and Tradition, no matter how Sorry or Sad You are, I well alwayz put a smile on your face". Here is a little Poem that I put together: "In my Heart I am a Navajo, In my heart is where tha songs come from, In tha heart is where layz tha ture love for my poeple and for tha little ones that may come into this world, In tha heart is where my Soul is kept, and that can Look out in tha world, Seeing things that you've never seen before, Being Navajo is my Tradition, thats what I am Nothing can change that from me". ......................NIZHONIGO' ITSH GAHLDOO'(May I Awayz Walk In Beauty)................ What my Sister(Arlene) says about me:------ Tee is really cool and we are like brothers and sisters to each other and he makes me laugh when I'm sad and when I'm mad at someone and so that's how Tee is, soo nice and generous and respectful to all of his friends and diff. poeple.-----------I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
