The Potluck from Hell. So There I was. Mommy, could you make me a cyclone? Uh no baby, I don't know how to make a cyclone.". It shouldn't be hard - cyclones are made of air. Stop laughing Mommy - cyclones are not funny! I never really have stopped laughing about that one. She was right, of course, cyclones are not funny - but four-year-olds are.

The post below about Ernest Toyi, of Makamba, Burundi, Central Africa is an excellent example of how much you can change things in the world with a small intervention. I trained 43 trauma Healers like Ernest while I was there in 2003. David Niyonzima turned those 43 into 800 trained. Only a tiny percentage of them have worked with him at THARS. Here is a Reuters Country Profile for Burundi. I am going on December 27 to train a new crop of healers. I will also be teaching his present staff about compa...

About half a kilometer from home the van driven by my host caught up with me. Peggy, why are you walking? I was on my way for you! I decided to stroll. Am I unsafe walking? Posted by...
