I Learn by Doing: A Personal Meditation on the Batak Proverb

I Learn by Doing: A Personal Meditation on the Batak Proverb "You learn how to cut down trees by cutting them down." — Batak (Batiki) Proverb That line hits different when you’ve lived it. I chose this proverb for Day 3 of Tribal Quotes because it calls out something deep that many of us are missing: the wisdom of experience. Too often, we get stuck in thought, tangled in theory, or lost in the illusion of needing to be fully ready before we act. But this proverb cuts straight through the noise. You want to learn how to cut down trees? Then cut them down. That’s it. No Flight School for Birds Flying is complicated. Aerodynamics, balance, wing structure—it’s not easy.

Gye-Nyame Steaming Journey

Image
This a lunch I put together in my steamer. Actually it took me longer to post this, than it did to make the meal.

I simply mixed some fresh green beans, some of my left over great northern beans, onion, garlic, and bell pepper . Steamed over a bed of salmon. I used some cinnamon, a little  turbinado sugar , salt, black pepper , and a little to much  cayenne pepper to season it. I also squeezed some fresh orange juice over it as well. After completing steaming. (30 minutes) I put it over a bed of rice (did not steam rice only have one steamer here), and now I am about to eat. So far the only effects have notice from the steam food is a slight itchy feeling in my skin, I will do some research but I figure this is my body adjusting to the food. I will keep you informed about any other changes that I experience from my new diet changes. Nuff said Peace & 1hunidyears l...
