"Zanzibar"

This day is sort of unique, 'cause I bought a book and managed to read it over. Which is a success. It was about Zanzibar and I found out many facts which have been unknown to me before. First of all, to let you know, Zanzibar is an island situated at the east coast of Africa, right in the middle. It's tropical and known for the production of spices, the exchange of slaves and ivory. Many interesting stories are described in the book. What I found most interesting are facts about spices i.e: that curry is a spice consisting of many substances, curcuma is a root which is dried and is good for digestion. The other facts I failed to translate properly. At the end of the book I found interesting words by Pawlikowska :" I always choose positive thinking. I don't think what I lack but I find joy in what I have and perceive that I have a lot. This is the secret of happiness." It so hard to see what we really have, because we compare ourselves to others. We finally realize what we have when we loose it.
Today a new thought by P. Coelho:"The best way of immersing in God is Love."
Have a good day, Ela.
