Strolling through A Zambian Village


     Visiting a Zambian Village, which has been there for roughly 3,000 years, we met a good number of the locals. They were friendly and gracious and welcoming.  It is true that our visit helped their economy as we bought their crafts, but it was an enjoyable time. The kids especially, were interested in seeing us.  This was last summer for us, or winter for them. Actually they do not have much of a winter and call it the dry season. 
      One might think that they have so many needs that are unmet. But they are blessed by living with only one television for the village and few cell phones to look at during dinner. They do have political unrest, but their leaders do not Tweet twenty times a day. I am not sure they know what a Tweet is.
      They are happy for the most part. It was a pleasure to have them teach us about satisfaction.
