I’m sure they’ll still need thousands of young naive Americans to go over there to dig wells for them and teach them to farm and not poo into the wells.
“I’m sure they’ll still need thousands of young naive Americans to go over there to dig wells for them and teach them to farm and not poo into the wells.”
I’m one of your “young naive Americans” who went over there “to dig wells for them and teach them to farm and not poo into the wells” only I’m no longer young (64) and I TAUGHT them to dig wells. They already knew the part about not “pooing”. (To be truthful, I kinda failed the “naive” part; at the time, I was 32, married, a father of three and a USMC Vietnam vet.)
One of my most fond memories is about taking a group of my seminary students and other instructors to see the first well I had made, six years earlier. We walked by three mud & thatch huts on the way to this family well. At each hut, the lady of the house came out, saw us and proclaimed, “Oh! We praise God for this well!”
Life has great rewards for the “naive”.
