I have been reminded of last year’s World Cup (soccer) by hearing “Waka Waka” playing during the cricket world cup. It was a time of exhuberance, excitement and unity – to me, a true reflection of who we are as a country. The excitement may have died down, but I still hold onto that vision as the reality of our country.

I am working hard to hold on to a similar kind of vision for my own life – a life where I am an amazing husband and father, create great art through my work, and execute interesting projects. At times life overwhelms the vision, and at other times the vision feels ready to break through. May your dreams break through and overwhelm your reality.

Also, today Grace made it through the whole day without any accidents or wet nappies. 24 hours without a drip, or a drop, or a skid mark.
