Even though it’s incredibly sad to leave and I would give an arm and a leg to stay, I know that my time is finished and I have to let the next volunteers have the same incredible experiences. I wish them all the best of luck and please look after all my children. They deserve all the love in the world and more!!
I was reading a poem
the other day and this verse really describes my feelings for Africa:
I am an African,
Not because I live on its soil,
But because my soul is at home in Africa
I am an African,
For her blue skies take my breath away,
And my hope for the future is bright,
I am an African,
For her people greet me as family,
And teach me the meaning of community,
I am an African,
For her wilderness quenches my spirit,
And brings me closer to the source of life.
Not because I live on its soil,
But because my soul is at home in Africa
I am an African,
For her blue skies take my breath away,
And my hope for the future is bright,
I am an African,
For her people greet me as family,
And teach me the meaning of community,
I am an African,
For her wilderness quenches my spirit,
And brings me closer to the source of life.
