Perspectives

"Life is difficult. Misery is optional."

I could complain and complain about my assignment here, bureau politics, the thieves who stole my bag, market shopping, bike-riding accidents, and many more topics if forced to. But doing so makes me look for negativity in a country where I don't want to be a negative person. I am so lucky and fortunate to be able to experience living in Ouagadougou. Every day, something new amazes me.

My new mantra.
