Mini World - 3. Do What You Can






The first breath of autumn in the mountains.


***

Yesterday I read a saying from a boy named Nkosi Johnson, 

who lived in South Africa. Like many children there,

Nkosi was born with HIV, and he died when he was twelve.


He had a mantra, as he called it. This mantra touched my heart deeply:

"Do all you can, with what you have, 

in time you have, 

in the place where you are."


That's all anyone can ever do.
