AMASHIWI

"Culture is the heritage of us all. some may be more interested than others in the treasures of the past, but no one can fail to take a pride in his country's participation in the story of mankind, as represented in carvings, sculpture, music, paintings and the other arts. And there is a personal commitment to this, for no man can really say he is alone: we are all joined through our identity, with the cultures which are part of the mainstream of life"
- Simon Kapwepwe, Zambian Independence Freedom Fighter

"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm" - Winston Churchill

"Try to be the rainbow in someone else's cloud" - Maya Angelou

"Your time is limited so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinion drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition" - Steve Jobs

Things on Thursday: TAMBA - Love

Last month on Valentine's Day I was privileged to converse with a diverse group of beautiful, soulful and wise African women thanks to the affordances of social media, and technology's potency in this day and age.  It  never ceases to amaze me the way we continue to service our viscerally inherent need to communicate and share ideas through innovation and creation!  Just as we need food and drink to fuel and sustain life physically, our mind needs sustenance through connection, facilitated by our ability to express ourselves.  So what better way to launch Things on Thursday (the last of the day themes) with "this thing called love" he he he he ;}

Here is the video of the Google + Hangout, organised by the awesome ladies at Adventures From the Bedrooms of African Women, discussing the topic: the Metamorphosis of Love. Btw ukutamba in Bemba means to watch, hence the tag TAMBA which I am using to curate video content.

I warn you, my mic that day decided to go on strike, refusing to amplify my voice.  I have been told if you use your earphones and turn up the volume as loud as you can, you can hear me.



You can also check out my post on Valentine's Day that summarises some of my views on love, and my post with links to the other ladies' blogs.
