You pay a lot for imagination these days. But they’re wonderful!
We know that we will not have much electricity in Sudan… a few solar powered batteries that we might use for light in the evenings, and for computers and such. Certainly not enough for a washing machine! At least, not yet. The world is advancing so quickly that if Coke can spread to the far corners, surely the lightbulb can. This is what I am picturing us using while we are there.
someday soon, i’d like to go to KC to visit….
-second hand stores
- The Black Cat bookshop… this is what i wish i could create
but this is materialistic mumbo, i guess. i don’t need more stuff. But, it would be fun. Somedays I just long to get a notebook just to fill it with sketches of what i want to create. My journal is haphazardly full of it: rough drafts on the corner of pages, or full page sketches i want to paint someday. Part of my is always craving to get some of these done, the other half is guilty of not making time to do so, one part of my knows that I am focusing on being a new mother and other such time-filling and eternal things, and the other part knows it’s just “excuses.” Sure, many things i come up with won’t make the world a better place. What i should do is never buy a present again, but make them. Meg Calderon is my little inspiration on this accord: she makes time for her projects.
So, someday. Or, this week!
