For as long as I can remember, I've always wanted to write and my resolution to do this plagued the air just like humidity before the storm, yet without the rain.
From my observations, our aspirations die most in the first week of the new year. Of course the frailties of my humanity; my lack of conviction, this is exemplified in my continuous battle to sit down and put pen to paper or finger to keyboard month after month since signing up to this newsletter with the intent of sharing my journey as a social entrepreneur navigating through farmer issues and farmer production and ensuring that we find markets that support our farmers to sell their products.
A social enterprise in a land, where doing things communally is valued implies that alot of time I spend talking less about farm issues and more about farmer issues,which leaves me too exhausted to sit down and reflect. Helping to address and resolve communal issues will go along way in automatically solving farmer issues.
An independent digest will force me to write and document this process of building a social enterprise also so consumers can appreciate the process of farm to fork in a developing country where nothing is set in stone or as the Papua New Guinea Tourism Bureau logo at one point was “Land of the Unexpected”.
There have been so many moments in my journey through my beautiful and crazy country where circumstances became so surreal, comical, unrealistic that I have had to pinch myself to see if I'm awake.
A resolution doesn't have to happen on New Year, it can happen anytime as long as one is committed to it and to seeing change happen in their life. I want to see change in the space I'm in and this happens through greater awareness even if it means making the resolution to write weekly.
This resolution is realistic and my approach is within my physical means with at least One article a week about my journey thus far which I hope you will enjoy.
So join me and learn about my world
