Wisdom Wednesday

'The truly happy people are those who have a source of happiness too deep to be seriously disturbed by ordinary troubles'
Marion K Rich

have I mentioned how tired I am lately? 3 weeks into language learning and the brain is struggling. Went out to a village this afternoon- awesome experience. The meeting was cancelled cos everyone was at a funeral- so we went to the home of the deceased and sat and commiserated for a while. So many beautiful, happy children and quirky grandmothers. Spent a lot of time watching what to do, trying to say the correct greetings at the right time and just soaking it all in. I'll be cheauffering (sp?) 3 guys out to villages in my car all day tomorrow- 6am to 6pm, so pray for safety on the roads and energy in the heat. my language helper is coming too, so hopefully it won't all be completely puzzling. I told her about my 2 visitors last night and her first reaction was 'thieves!' interesting.
I'll try and get some good shots tomorrow of village life to post for you to see... technology!

I can't believe Heath Ledger is dead.
