Africa For Norway - A timely message.
For something different this week, I am letting a song say it all. Sit back, watch, listen and enjoy.
Now, wasn't that fun? Here I am caught up in all sorts of intense issues to save the world - refugees, human trafficking, migrants. It is stressing me and I feel drained. Then two young Germans working on placement at BRC (the refugee centre) call me over to show me this song on You Tube. My companions in refugee work are two great young women. We just loved what we saw. It made us laugh and that was so good to do. It brought my energy back and made me relax and see all things in a lighter perspective. I hope it energizes you and makes you laugh.
We also saw its message and it is a necessary message. We don't have to save the world. We just have to work together to make it a decent place, a better place for all and we all have our contribution to make. This is not a one person event.
