Wangari Maathai:

Finished reading: Unbowed by Wangari Maathai 📚 🔥

Just finished watching: Panchayat S1E4, Hamara Neta Kaisa Ho? 📺 Really good, and funny!

I find this interesting, First Things About page:

The Institute on Religion and Public Life is a 501(c)3 organization and the publisher of First Things. It was founded in 1989 by Richard John Neuhaus, a Lutheran pastor who later became a Catholic priest.

I have often felt that I am plagued by a kind of inferiority complex. I feel, however, that the inferiority complex is paradoxically related to how I regard myself too highly than I ought to do.

Currently reading: Unbowed by Wangari Maathai 📚 I thought I knew Wangari Maathai. But now I know it amounted to nothing more than that she won the Nobel Peace Prize and that she loved trees. I would have said she was an environmentalist rather than that ‘she loved trees’ but I have never thought properly of her as the enviromentalist that she in fact was. Her memoir is helping me so much. I am seeing, getting to know, and appreciate way more than I knew about Wangari Maathai. Why did I not read this book, and this sort of books, sooner?

One of the, as it seems to me, most important lessons I am learning writing online, is how to use the appropriate tone. I have noted that my tone is often too preachy and stern than is appropriate. I feel it would be much better if I sounded much more friendlier and approachable. I should perhaps investigate how one gets his tone, but I am pretty sure it is coloured heavily by the sort of thing one reads, and the sort of way one thinks about his audience. I have so much to learn. And, grow.

I think this one here is such a wonderful piece. The Long way!

Currently reading: House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende 📚

What really is the word to describe this kind of narration style? And then to know just how much a matter is an obvious lie, yet still love and enjoy, even believe, it.
