First Time ( file under great excitement)

My mother and stepfather are in town. They live in Malawi, Africa. They are doing some great work over there and in fact run the largest medical provider in the country. All of it for free. They work with http://www.lifelinemalawi.com/ and I could not be more proud.

I get to see them maybe, just maybe, three times a year. Tonight I get the privilege, the honour, and the absolute treat to show them what I do and where I do it. For the first time I get to sit down and have dinner where I work and I could not be more excited.

I will write about the experience the next time I have time. But stay tuned. It is going to be a blast.

One of my favourites, Ralph Waldo Emerson once said; “Treat a man as he is, and he will remain as he is. Treat a man as he could be, and he will become what he should be.” This relates a lot to my last few days…

Are you dreaming BIG AND INSPIRED?

A la prochaine
