Day 2039: No Me Without My Country, South Africa

I wouldn’t be me without my country – that’s what I’ve realized.

 

It’s 12 : 35 PM on day 2039 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Revelation 16, have breakfast, learn one new thing –  Sheep belong to the genus Ovis and have 54 chromosomes, while goats belong to the genus Capra and have 60 chromosomes. The offspring of a sheep-goat pairing is generally stillborn. Despite widespread shared pasturing of goats and sheep, hybrids are very rare, indicating the genetic distance between the two species.– hang out outside  – it’s such a beautiful day outside I thought it would be a shame to waste it 🙂 – and work on my 25 Smiles Campaign –raised $5 456  only $794  more to raise by 10 Jan 2017  (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far :)  ).

 

Today I realized that I wouldn’t be me without my country if I lived somewhere else I probably could still do everything that I’m doing but I doubt I would believe so strongly that I can be and do anything I want to be and do there’s something about living in a country where a boy who herded sheep grows up to be president that makes you believe that you can be anything you want to be.
