As Shanley and I move from the holiday portion of our travels into the actual internship, I am not confident in what our access to internet will be over the next several weeks. I do anticipate finding means to blog, but until I secure such arrangements, I wanted to leave things with something poetic that speaks to work that I will be doing:
I keep six honest serving-men
They taught me all I knew,
Their names are What [Ini] and Why [Ngobani]
and When [Nini],
And How [Kanjani] and Where [Kuphi]
and Who [Ubani].
-Rudyard Kipling
The words in brackets are Zulu (one of the 11 national languages spoken in South Africa). I came upon this poem in a text I've been reading/studying about "Communicating With The African Patient."
