This is the western edge of Africa.
It is a rough edge, dark
and mysterious.
There is a bit of Africa in all of mankind. After all, our
ancestors came from this continent.
I find this in myself and maybe that’s why I have been drawn
to Africa
and ended up here making it my home.
This edge must have been terrifying for the early explorers
and going past they found Good Hope.
To get to Good Hope we must travel past our darkness and
past our edges.
It also means to see, recognise and acknowledge them inside
and out.
The sailors feared the edges, but they had to look at them
clearly.
If the edge stayed in the fog it became most dangerous.
