“Today I spoke to you again and I feel completely happy! I feel like a cloud floating around in the wide blue sky. I feel totally alive. I feel as if time has paused in this moment. As if God is telling me to be totally happy and cheerful!”

“What I don’t have gnaws at me until I get it. And once I get it, I forgot that I wanted it because it was not about the need to have whatever it was that I wanted. Rather, it was about getting rid of the insecurities surrounding the fact that I did not have it.”

“There must come a time when each of us is able to hear the forest weep, a time when the languages of the forest and the humans will become one, a time when the axe and the chainsaw will disappear from the face of the earth. When the time comes, human beings will learn to love the earth and one another. In that time, the forest will bloom to the sound of human laughter, and it tell us that every life, however small or delicate as the touch-me-not, is divine.”

“In preparation for motherhood, I read books, I watched people around me, and I learned what to do but also what not to do. I quickly realized that my schooling and tertiary education did little to prepare me for being a parent. I even attended antenatal classes to prepare for the birth, but that is where it ended. When my baby was handed to me after delivery, I never received a manual. Oh, how I wished they came with one!”
