GATHERING

 “A man who calls his kinsmen to a feast does not do so to save them from starving. They all have food in their own homes. When we gather together in the moonlit village ground it is not because of the moon. Every man can see it in his own compound. We come together because it is good for kinsmen to do so”.  Chinua Achebe, Things Fall Apart

 “I am looking for friends. What does that mean - tame?" "It is an act too often neglected," said the fox. "It means to establish ties." "To establish ties?" "Just that," said the fox. "To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.... Antoine de Saint-ExupΓ©ry, The Little Prince

  One day a man said to God , “God, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.” God showed the man two doors. Inside the first one, in the middle of the room, was a large round table with a large pot of vegetable stew . It smelled delicious and made the man’s mouth water, but the people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful, but because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. God said, “You have seen Hell.” Behind the second door, the room appeared exactly the same. There was the large round table with the large pot of wonderful vegetable stew that made the man’s mouth water. The people had the same long-handled spoons, but they were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The...

The story behind it is an interesting one though. How many of you know what this is called? Most of you will say bubble wrap. Some will call it stress relief. But if you asked the two engineers who invented it in 1957, they would have told you: "It’s a failure." Alfred and Marc didn't set out to protect your fragile electronic packages. Far from that. They wanted to be interior designers. They had this brilliant idea to create 3D Wallpaper. They thought the world was tired of flat, boring walls. So, they glued two shower curtains together, trapped some air in the middle, and told the world, "Look! We've invented trendy walls!" The world looked, and then the world walked away. Nobody wanted to live in a house that looked like the inside of a swimming pool. Lol.  They were stuck with miles of poppable plastic that nobody wanted. They tried to use it to insulate greenhouses. It failed. They tried to sell it as a curtain. It failed again. They were o...
