today was the day of the silent walking vigil for teacher michael… most people were averting their eyes at me, or giving me sympathetic smiles. my favourite moments were when the children were smiling and waving, and when the older eritrean or ethiopian women were dancing…
it was initially cloudy (and even rained a bit), and then the sun came out. it was a bitter-sweet day. i walked for approximately four hours and fifteen minutes, sometimes alone, and sometimes with friends.
all for the teachings…
