REFLECTION: The message that the legend of Ecuadorian origin *Cantuña* leaves us is that the indigenous people have always had great ingenuity to solve adversities and this ingenuity has allwed them to keep their cultures alive. In addition,it teaches us that even if we are desperate,we should not stray from the path of God and not join the path of evil. It also reflects the importance of delivering on what is promised. The story tells the story of how cantuña tricked the devil into helping him finish a church for God and at the same time he was able to save his soul.
