http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
And the point is to live everything. Monday, June 20, 2011. I constantly crave laughter. And improv has become my favorite fix. I don't know much of the history or the terminology. But from years of watching improv and listening to my friends discuss it I've developed a general understanding of it. I can identify what I like and don't like, and I have a vague sense of what makes for good improv and bad. I've gleaned a handful of wisdom nuggets that apply not only to improv but to life:. To be a good midw...

Has just released some new data on how Malawians see themselves, their government, the state of the country and their political system and it’s pretty telling. As the reason that Lilongwe is so spread out? What’s telling is that 30% of Malawians believe that the coun...

I just got back from mine to discover that apparently humans aren’t the only ones who need to take a rest to keep up their job function. Owners to retrieve what is left for the salvage yard.

The contrast to the following Saturday couldn’t have been more vivid. Sundown in Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park. An adolescent male ...The hun...

I recently found myself in a village on the doorstep of a community health worker with two colleagues, a Malawian and an expat. Community health worker bike. The mother opted to sit in the dark cool of the community health worker’s house.

That being said, lines at the polling stations are 4 hours long and I give much credit to those willing to wait through such lines to have their voices heard – my beloved at the top of that list.

The scene is the same though, half of us pay attention, a few participate; I think poorly of the instructor. A look of horror fills faces.

brave new grrrl: on being a doormat
http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-golden-rule-part-deux.html
And the point is to live everything. Tuesday, June 11, 2013. On being a doormat. What if rules #1 and #2, as outlined above, had equal weight?

http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
And the point is to live everything. Saturday, August 24, 2013. In digging through some old files on my laptop today, I found the following assignment that I wrote in my nursing program in May of 2008.
