on endless plains...

We have had wonderful days on the endless plains of the Serengeti and the Maasai Mara. As I sit here at my tent in the Mara reflecting on my days spent here, I can't help to feel a oneness with his place. As giraffe and zebra stroll past my view, I feel at home and serene.


The circle of life is so wonderous and is evident everywhere you look. You see birth and young across the land; you see death and vultures too. It takes both to sustain life and life is dear. On departing the Mara, David gave us the following verse:

I love all waste, solitary places
where we taste the pleasure of believing what we see
as timeless as we wish our souls to be.
