    My ancestors had a phrase that has become the popularized saying “today is a good day to die”

    Hokahey

    Crazyhorse being the badass he was, would yell it when charging into battle.

    It’s not really meant as “time to die” but more of I am ready! I am brave. I am strong. I love my family and they love me. If today is the day, so be it. I am ready for judgement!

    This dad is practicing what it means.
