Yep, it’s one of my favourites. I’m hoping if I use it enough it will become part of the common vernacular…

It definitely is a stark reminder of how much we take for granted in the first world. I think one of the most inspiring things about the centre was how it is empowering young Tanzanians to not rely on others to help them but also realise how they can use their own unique talents to make a better life for themselves.

Thankyou for your thoughtful comments and sweet wishes. :)

Yes, as you know its always interesting when you ask the same question to people of vastly different cultures and backgrounds and find the responses all have similarities. Glad you’re feeling inspired. :)

I’ve been thinking about motivation for what we do in the world, and this strikes a chord. Lovely to see what you’re up to over there, and I feel inspired to do a bit of blogging too!

I like the word you use: “kindful!”

Love the quotes from the people you’ve met. What a wonderful motivation, to do good now so that you will be remembered as a good person after death. Very selfless. Thank you for the reminder that we in the US have so much, and we should not only be grateful, but be inspired to give to those in need. Blessings to you! ~ Sheila

Yes, its a nice sense of achievement to have completed it. It’s been wonderful sharing the kindness journey with you, and being inspired to cook kindful and delicious food at the same time. Such joy that you bring by really truly doing what you love and being who you are. I’m sure we’ll still hang out in wordpress world every now and then! xoxo

I have definitely developed habits of kindness that will (hopefully) always be with me. I think all I learned will serve me well for the next adventure! Thankyou so much for reading and commenting.
