Day #133: Kameelputs, SA: Lacking Initiative

Mae was right. Some people dream of large mansions and shiny cars. My dream resides here in this small room, within these dung walls, under this tin roof. It's all just what one sees as prosperity and wealth, right? God help me.

I can't complain about today. Another boring day on a string of them. I want to make a difference, but I lack the initiative. I don't know how to approach this fight, but my biggest fear is that this will be all in vain, that this dream will stay only in this heart, never to be seen with human eyes. I ask to achieve great things only through God's grace. I must lead by example, as a testimony of faith.
