Beautifully simple My heart breaks for Christian. I commit myself to praying for her. Thank you for your insightful comments. World travel opens our eyes to how foolishly greedy Americans are and how distorted our ideas of "what we need to survive" are. It's a relief to be in a country where hospitality is the highest value. Often it is the poorest who are the most gracious.
I, too, loved learning that there are many, many ways of being human on this planet, and that we all have much to learn from each other. Also it was great to see that one of the universal languages is play. Bringing a jump rope...what a great idea! Those children will never forget you. So very proud of you! xoxo
Jump Rope Leaping Hearts Hello Hope,
Tonight Stanley and I settled down with our mac books to navigate your current entries. As we opened your blog we could see your mom entering upon our front steps (she actually came over to get to visit with Alyssa). Reading your blog and seeing the photos reminded me of the experiences of some of my Baha'i friends that have pioneered in the various nations in Africa. Your account of your pint size curiosity neighbors uplifted my heart on this hot summer evening. Hilarious giggling great leaping joyful hearts . . . Hope, you are eternally a bright light to so many souls. Oh the elegance in simplicity . . . Blessed day to you darling as I rest my soul your Friday has already begun and your brightness and service to others delivers long-lasting love. Oceans of Love, Keleen
