Yashimbawula! Relics from my old MySpace page

As we grow up, we learn that this is NOT a nice world. By the grace of God we also discover GOD IS GOOD.

FULBE PROVERBS
If you like where you fell, don't forget what tripped you.
A monkey sitting in the fork of a tree can't understand the one hanging from a branch.
Better to spend the whole day finding a way around than to plunge in and drown.
Calling demons isn't difficult; it's sending them away again.



LYRICS: King Without A Crown, by Matisyahu (Opens in a new window)

When you're lovers in a dangerous time
Sometimes you're made to feel
as if your love's a crime
But nothing worth having comes
without some kind of fight
Got to kick at the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight

...Bruce Cockburn, Lovers in a Dangerous Time, 1983

LYRICS: The Crossing, by Johnny Clegg and Savuka (Opens in a new window)

"I'm trying to say what I think brotherhood really is. It begins—it begins in shared pain."
"Then where does it end?"
"I don't know. I don't know yet."
