Group photos of Rotary Club members from Ann Arbor North, Ayotunde Onafuwa (our Gbagada Nigerian Club partner) and Nepalese Rotary District Governor Dr Jaya Shah (in blue sari) and another Nepalese Rotary couple taken on our final day at the Convention.
The photo shows Scott proudly donning his new Nepali topi (hat), and me in my favorite Nepali Gurkha (Canadian Tilly) hat- we are all set to partner on a new Rotary Foundation Global Grant sanitation project between our Club, the Nepal Consul General of Singapore and Rotary Clubs of Singapore and Chandragiri in Nepal.
Also ran into an energetic group of Pakistani Rotarians posing for a farewell group photo with the Rotary wheel...take a close look at the pinned coat of one bespectacled Rotarian on the left kneeling.
Bob Van Oosterhout, shared with us the problem of being motivated by fear at our lunch on Thursday June 15th.
Bob discussed, "that fear puts us in Crisis Mode. Fear narrows our brain focus. We do not ask questions or seek to understand the large picture or relevant details."
Bob said, "The unknown is seen as a potential threat."
Bob Van Oosterhout started the project called "Bring Truth to Fear", after the U.S. election that grew out of the he found that the use of fear as a political tactic along with a lack of respect for the truth is undermining our capacity to work together to solve problems and maintain a stable and healthy democracy.
