safari disposition

For some a safari requires a lot of patience. Long periods of time may pass without spotting an elephant or a leopard or one of those things one might go to see. In a zen-like moment of realisation I saw that this is often the approach people take to life, waiting for the big stuff and tolerating the rest.


I am grateful to have a safari disposition, which requires less patience but open eyes. In life (as on safari) I am drawn into the setting, the context, the everyday; it never fails to amaze me. When the elephants and leopards of life appear I am ready and eager to appreciate them as well.
