I love the bright colors used by this culture! The bright colors brings warmth and beauty to our otherwise dreary life.

What a great idea of having the black collection box and “billing” the folks who dared open their door to see what the commotion was all about. Reminds me of a banner in a bar with the inscription “YCJCYAQFTJB” (Your curiosity just cost you a quarter for the juke box”).Maybe our poor little parish church should try the same thing. But, of course… if we went around banging the drum at 6am in this inner city neighborhood …we might have other “issues”.

Take me along and I’ll transcribe as you ruminate/elucidate/dictate/expectorate. I’ll even open doors, get your wrap, and save a seat on the bus. I’ll feed you, take pictures of you, and keep you safe from harm. What the hell you waiting for?
