More Words from Uganda
Forgiveness - by Ken Magee

Missed this one and will add a bit to it. It raises a thought-provoking question. How far should you and I go in forgiveness?

15 April 2007, Uganda.

It is Sunday p.m. and we are at the MAP office getting our final proposals ready for the debriefing tomorrow. Tuesday we will be taking the long drive to Kampala and then starting the trip home via Amsterdam Weds. p.m. I do have a seven-hour wait there but that too shall pass. I hope to bring a copy of our recommendations home with me so that MTI will know more of what we have done.

So many stories. One of the best is the traditional way of peacemaking in this part of Uganda which includes chiefs bringing their best spears together, bending the handles to indicate that they will no longer be used against each other, and extending unconditional forgivemess to each other regardless of the past. People here seem to want to do that. They are concerned that the World Court won't understand this way but will be insistent that Kony and others be treated in the worst way. All of this is so very thought provoking.

I have lots more to say when I get to dependable e-mail service.
Love to you all, Ken.
