Dear friends
In his award-winning memoirs «Wind, Sand and Stars» (1939), Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900 – 1944) described key experiences in his short, sensitive life and work. On the occasion of today, 1 January, when we often formulate New Year’s resolutions, a passage from his wonderful book crosses my mind: “We cannot predict what matters most in life. You normally experience the purest joy where you least expected it.”
We wish you many such moments of joy and happiness. That you are blessed with confidence, health and the courage to follow the voice of your heart. With some pictures of the past year and a short greeting message from our kids to you, I would like to assure you of your thanks, greetings and best wishes.
With a personal message from Florence Barigye, our most experienced Village-Director, and more messages from some of our kids, I remain with cordial regards and heartfelt gratitude.
Happy New Year!
Always your
Burkhard Varnholt, on behalf of Kids of Africa
