The expats are restless: September 2012
http://gattmibbs.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
The expats are restless. I'm just a guy standing in front of the world asking it to love him…. Friday, September 14, 2012. I’ve had anxieties about this production (an appropriate state, considering the etymology of “aporia”), but good ones: how do I tell this story? How do I fit in with an inordinately talented group of people to create something so fresh and interesting and bold? How can I be brave enough? Monday, September 10, 2012. I'll show you the (old) bird. Now, for the record, I’m beyond b...

The expats are restless: June 2012

The expats are restless. I'm just a guy standing in front of the world asking it to love him…. Sunday, June 17, 2012. He’s got the name. He’s got the look. He’s got the talent too. No, you cheeky devils, I’m not talking about myself (for once). I speak of one of those rare actors. An actor of whom I find it impossible to be jealous because he’s just so good: Benedict Cumberbatch. Oh, to be him. But, you know, my version of him. Unique. Just like him. He did a post-grad acting course; so did I. Oh yes....

The expats are restless. I'm just a guy standing in front of the world asking it to love him…. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Organisations the world over have been advocating against it for years. I've read dozens of papers and reports on strategies to change attitudes and behaviour - some very successfully. But the last strategy I read about in Ethiopia made me smile. Uncircumcised girl day. The strategy was to encourage whole villages to celebrate the marriages of uncircumcised girls. "See? Bee Gees - a na...

The expats are restless: November 2012
http://gattmibbs.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
The expats are restless. I'm just a guy standing in front of the world asking it to love him…. Sunday, November 18, 2012. In any event, I was not expecting a shot of political discourse in Sunday School this morning (don’t even… I am one of the teachers). There we were, with a particularly relevant reading about nations fighting nations and the leader was asking the kids what they thought about it. This to be patroni s. Ing; it was just a brilliant little moment that I wanted to share. I don't rememb...

The expats are restless: I'll show you the (old) bird
http://gattmibbs.blogspot.com/2012/09/ill-show-you-old-bird.html
The expats are restless. I'm just a guy standing in front of the world asking it to love him…. Monday, September 10, 2012. I'll show you the (old) bird. Times past, I used to relish being the young one. Before I did my acting training, I was an aid worker in Africa and the Pacific for some seven years and every office I was the youngest. At 22 in Papua New Guinea, I was the baby of the UN and at 29 in Ethiopia, there still wasn’t a colleague to touch me, age-wise. No, I’m genuinely curious not so m...

The expats are restless: Australia Day / Another Day
http://gattmibbs.blogspot.com/2013/01/australia-day-another-day.html
The expats are restless. I'm just a guy standing in front of the world asking it to love him…. Friday, January 25, 2013. Australia Day / Another Day. What if we were to celebrate Australia Day on a more significant day? Sure, white people weighing anchor and deciding to “settle” is a significant day in our history, but is it really the best we can do in marking out a day that celebrates our wonderful nation and all that it was, is and can be?

The expats are restless. I'm just a guy standing in front of the world asking it to love him…. Monday, July 26, 2010. She was my aunt. A beautiful, funny, soulful lady. How she will be missed! But her warmth and joy shall continue to radiate. One thing I shall always remember about Aunty Ros, apart from her peerless sense of humour, is that she lived big. Fear of life was for mugs; leaving stones unturned was for fools. Monday, July 5, 2010. They all look the same to me. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
