    • Sadly, more and more people don’t dare to swim against the stream anymore. They obey to social rules without questioning and don’t speak their own truth, lifeless like puppets on the string. In fact there is nothing more beautiful than being yourself, following your dreams and most important of all thanking for yourself. This isn’t only self-care it also would make this world a better place.
      Your reflections are powerful and very well written, my friend!

    With Cupped Hands

    —A Griot’s Song for Gambia— I sing of this land where rivers speak—while The Gambia flows in her verse,as narrow as a whisper,yet wider than a mother’s hug. For its waters are never silent—humming with shouts of traders,drummers, poets, and dreamers,naming...

    • Beautifully penned, P.G. The plot thickens, I like the shift in perspective, a different character a different point of view. Also reveals information to fill in the gaps between characters that only the reader is privy to, nicely done. Great flow on the information in the dialogue revealed by Mr. Knight. I think you’re a natural at this writing thing. Appreciate you.
