Good day Homebase family! I am trying to continue to engage with you all on my journey home to Mama Africa but it’s been hard. It’s taken so much energy just to get myself reacclimated to normal life after 10 weeks away. I’m starting to find my legs again! Anyway, this is just a little video about how I started my sabbatical with a trip to DC to witness the Buddhist monks Walk for Peace! It was a tender and yet powerful experience. Tens of thousands of people descended upon DC on February 9 searching for a sign of love in this world and they found it! To witness peace in a place that seems devoted to chaos was especially impacting. They walked approximately 3700 kilometers (2300 miles) in the middle of the winter and some walked barefoot. It was a grueling experience for them but all the while they kept that quintessential Buddha snake all the way! One of the monks was even hit by a car and lost a foot on the journey…and after healing kept participating as much as he could. People kneeling and bowing on the side of the highway waiting for just a brief moment with them. I was weeping. This is what I’m on! MORE OF THIS PLEASE! Love you all.
