Kenya's gift. (Ear to the Ground).


Whether it's in the smiles of the children or the generosity of the poor, Kenya has an air of hope which enriches the heart and intoxicates in·tox·i·cate (n-tks-k the mind. I doubt that many other people can dance and sing with the gusto and verve I have witnessed here. At first I asked myself what they had to celebrate. After a time I realized that they are simply happy to have the gift of life--something worth remembering in our ever more complicated lives. Thank you, Kenya, for opening my eyes, mind and soul. That is something money can't buy.
