Hi!!
You have stumbled upon my person internet hidey-hole.
This is where I stash thoughts for future reference as well as hide my " humanity".
I have been dragging a few of these articles around the net for years! Lol
Not all of these thoughts are my own.
Feel free to add your insights at any time... Or just lurk if you want.
What ever your reason for coming here, I humbly ask you to stay & share some part your journey with
me/us.
Why "ubuntuned" ?
I have caught the UBUNTU vibe! Therefore I AM ubuntuned!!
ubuntu |oǒ'boǒntoō|
Ubuntu is an ancient African word meaning 'humanity to others'. It also means 'I am what I am because of who we all are'.
"Ubuntu - the essence of being human. Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can't exist as a human being in isolation. It speaks about our interconnectedness. You can't be human all by yourself… A person with Ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole…”
-Archbishop Desmond Tutu
Definition of ubuntu (n)
Bing Dictionary
u·bun·tu [ bntoo ]
kindness: humanity, compassion, and goodness, regarded as fundamental to the way Africans approach life
( I think of it as the spirit of ALOHA as well)
