Sam， I say to myself as I start across the bridge， you must stop these thoughts and start thinking about what to do now that you have lost your falcon（猎鹰）， Frightful．
Life， my friend Bando once said， is meeting problems and solving them whether you are an amoeba or a space traveler． I have a problem． I have to provide my younger sister Alice and myself with meat． Fish， nuts， and vegetables， are good and necessary， but they don't provide enough fuel for the hard physical work we do． Although we have venison（鹿肉） now， I can't always count on getting it． So far this year， our venison has been only road kill from in front of Mrs． Strawberry's farm．
I decide to take the longest way home， down the flood plain of the West Branch of Delaware to Spilkill， my own name for a fast stream， that cascades down the south face of the mountain range I'm on． I need time to think． Perhaps Alice and I should be like the early Eskimos． We should walk， camp and hunt， and when the seasons change， walk on to new food sources． But I love my tree and my mountaintop．
Another solution would be to become farmers， like the people of the Iroquois Confederacy who once lived here． They settled in villages and planted corn and squash（南瓜）， bush beans and berries． We already grow groundnuts in the damp soil and squash in the poor land． But the Iroquois also hunted game． I can't do that anymore
I'm back where I started from．
Slowly climb the Spillkill． As I hop from rock to rock beneath shady basswoods and hemlocks， I hear the cry of the red﹣tailed hawk who nests on the mountain crest． I am reminded of Frightful and my heart aches． I can almost hear her call my name， Cree， cree， car﹣ree．
Maybe l can get her back if l beg the man who is in charge of the peregrines（游隼） university． "But it's the law，" he would say． L could write to the president of the United states and ask him to make an exception of Alice and me． That won't work． The president swore to upload the constitution（宪法） and laws of the United States when he took office．
I climbed on． I must stop thinking about the impossible and solve the problem of what to do now． I must find a new way to provide for us． Frightful is going to be in good hands at the university and she will have young．
I smile at the thought of little Frightfuls and lift my reluctant feet．
When I am fat above the river，1take of my clothes and moccasins（鹿皮鞋） and bathe in a deep， clear pool until I am refreshed and thinking more clearly． Climbing up the bank， I dress and sit down． I breath deeply of the mountain air and try to solve my problem more realistically．

Dear 17﹣year﹣old self，
When your Laker dream comes true tomorrow， you need to figure out a way to invest in the future of your family． This sounds simple， and you may think it's a no﹣brainer， but take some time to think on it further．
I said INVEST．
I did not say GIVE
Let me explain．
Purely giving material things to your siblings（兄弟姐妹） may appear to be right decision． So you buy them a car， a big house， pay， all of their bill． You want them to live a beautiful comfortable life， right？
But the day will come when you realize that as much as you believed you were doing the right thing， you were actually holding them back．
You will come to understand that you were taking care of them because it made YOU feel good， it made YOU happy to see them smiling and without a care in the world ﹣ and that was extremely selfish of you． While you were feeling satisfied with yourself， you were slowly eating away at their own dreams and ambitions． You were adding material things to their lives， but subtracting the most precious gifts of all．
Invest in their future， don't just give．
Use your success， wealth and influence to put them in the best position to realize their own dreams and find their true purpose． Put them through school， set them up with job interviews and help them become leaders in their own right． Hold them to the same level of hard work and dedication that it took for you to get to where you are now， and where you will eventually go．
I'm writing you now so that you can begin this process immediately， and so that you don't have to deal with the hurt and struggle of weaning（断绝） them off of the addiction that you facilitated That addiction only leads to anger， hatred and jealousy from everybody involved， including yourself．
As time goes on， you will see them grow independently and have their own ambitions and their own lives， and your relationship with all of them will be much better as a result．
Trust me， setting things up right from the beginning will avoid a ton of tears and headache， some of which remains to this day．
Much love，
