Take It Now: My Beyond Borders Journey. Wednesday, August 3, 2011. Changing Perspectives Caused by Nutella. So what does Nutella show of my situation here in Kenya? Lastly, Nutella reveals to me my love of comfort. If I was given one spoonful, I wouldn’t be as happy as dictating my own amount. And yet from all the people I see everyday and what this extra money would mean to them, how can I justify this gluttony and selfishness? Guilt and the White Man's Burden. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Take It Now: My Beyond Borders Journey: April 2011
http://givingback2011.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Take It Now: My Beyond Borders Journey. Monday, April 4, 2011. Two things that stick out from my journey so far in the Beyond Borders program are the preparation that is necessary to get me to this place, one month from leaving to live in Kenya for the summer, and the gratitude that I have to all the people that got me to this place. Both have been integral parts of the journey so far and I could not have achieved this without the people involved. Why is preparation so important? To love is to be there.

Take It Now: My Beyond Borders Journey. Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Teaching A Man To Fish Is Not Enough. A Kenyan the other day was trying to explain the precepts of Kenyan business to me, abou the concern for making money and especially easy money. This is why crime and corruption are easy to find here because the easy way out is accepted, shortcuts are rewarded and society suffers.
