Go Big or Go Home?

Branding meeting scheduled for next week. We're going big because we're not ready to go home. Which brings me to wondering, where is home? The connection that I felt with the land and the people of Malawi was undeniable. So I'm going to say I'm going home to go big. To my wonderful friends and family at my coastal home. I miss you and love you dearly, but Africa's calling. Hope to see you in the near future, I'll be back for a visit. Stay safe and prosper.

Wits students doing good with green fingers and toes

Very excited about my visit to the Wits food garden today with these bright young humans, although a bit heart broken to see the hail damage from yesterdays torrential storms. Nature is a beast at times but the challenges and efforts are never without reward and I believe this garden will grow rich and bountiful with the love and care that it's getting. Nice one Wits, keep it going.

This bed thankfully had protection from the hail so suffered minimal damage.

Roxanne and Chris enjoying a pose. Potatoes in the round containers to the right.

Toms & bean beds looking strong but the poor baby radishes were uprooted by the heavy down pore.

Hells bells

Last nights thunder storm obliterated four pages of my life. This pen makes a nice water colour art effect but I'll use a ball point for my notes in future. Life lessons. The messy writing is a log of the moisture levels taken from a digital display in the bus. As we got closer to Mzuzu town, you can clearly see the humidity rise substantially. This is why it is not an ideal area for growing Moringa.

Hypocrisy

In the instance of chance
The choices were made
That contradict the policy
For change to be made
Balancing on a fire wire
Of hypocrisy
Are WE so clever?

Finding just in in-just 
The impossibility of possibility
The cold fact from conspiracy
Controls the exploitation
Spiraling in tune
May it end soon
Order and balance resume
BH...today
