I made it here... finally!
I love your ...Hi Tyrean. I made it here... finally!<br />I love your random, spontaneous thoughts... they capture the essence of ubuntu in action!<br />And your celebration list is amazing... you have so many wonderful things to celebrate!<br /><br />Here's a quote from a TED video clip... if you ever get an opportunity to watch it, then do so...<br />"What I've come to learn is that the world is never saved in grand messianic gestures, but in the simple accumulation of gentle, soft, almost invisible acts of compassion--everyday acts of compassion. In South Africa they have a phrase called ubuntu. Ubuntu comes out of a philosophy that says, the only way for me to be human is for you to reflect my humanity back at me." - Chris Abani on TED<br /><br />...and your post also brought this to mind: “We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.”<br />― Herman Melville<br /><br />Thank you for reaching out across cyberspace to share in the spirit of Ubuntu!Michelle Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750092836481599870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797583622244194866.post-69439538165890474742014-02-21T13:38:10.913-08:002014-02-21T13:38:10.913-08:00What a great celebration!What a great celebration!VikLithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12675200811539358961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797583622244194866.post-82010102396883524082014-02-21T10:43:07.537-08:002014-02-21T10:43:07.537-08:00Yes, it is!
