Everything starts as a concept. Some generic precepts that you have ideas about, interests in, desirea to explore. But those concepts don’t become real until you move to action-until you commit. Throw your hat over the wall and then follow it.
I just landed from a 30 hour reentry from Zambia. Four planes ranging in size, from a single prop to a British airways 380 Airbus.
I have had a dream to go to Africa and it’s been rattling around in my heart for a time.
It was the animals that allured me, the idea of seeing them in the wild. The idea of all the different kinds of behaviors.
As we drove into our camp, we were welcomed by scores of impalas, elephants, troops of monkeys and zebras.
Our room overlooked the Zambezi river filled with hippos and crocs, we were serenaded day and night to the sounds of the hippos. I have many stories to tell. Wonderful, thrilling, moving and entertaining but it’s the people that make me weep.
A concept of having very little and yet having so much joy, love and generosity.
A constant reminder, it’s not about what you have, it’s your relationship to what you have, great or small. What you have is either confining and defining you or what you have is liberating.
I live my life in moving pictures- not a still photograph.
I want to learn from my past and embrace the pain of the present and live in the possibility of the future.
I’m grateful for all the love that is given so freely from those that I know and those I have just met.
