“This is Africa”

...an excuse“This is Africa”

...an excuse

...a euphemism

“This is Africa”

...an excuse

...a euphemism

...a paradox

“This is Africa”

But it is so much more

than words...

This is Africa

...and this is Africa...

...and this is

Africa...

...and this...

...is Africa...

...and this is definitely Africa.

So...what’s the paradox,

you ask?

This is also Africa...

This is also Africa...

tear?

...and this is also Africa...

...and so is this.

And ‘round

and ‘round

it goes.

But there is also hope...

...light.

On the faces of the children...

...and on all of our faces.

Or maybe that’s

something else:

LIPSTICK!

So we’re still left with this:

What will we do?

What can we do?

We can just sit back...

...watching the tid

es

come and go...

...waiting for someone else.

Or we can do something about it.

“The world is more

malleable than you

think, and it’s

waiting for you to

hammer it into shape.

Bono

Be that hammer...

...find your nail.

And when you do...

...don’t just walk...don’t just wait...

RUN!

And when you run...

...remember where you’ve

been.

Because...

...sometimes

walking amongst

the memories of

others...

...can give you

some of your own.

Thank you all for going on

this trip.

Wish that you’d

been there

Wish that I’d been there

Glad that you were there

Asante Sana
