“Our culture is obsessed with youth because we have lost the ancient knowledge that growth never stops. We are not transient, momentary mistakes in the cosmos- evolutionary curiosities that rise like mayflies, swarm for a day, and are gone. We are players who are here to stay, and the universe was built with us in mind. We reflect it, with our deepest loves and loftiest aspirations, just as it reflects us.” MindCultureUniverseLostGrowthMistakeGonePlayerYouthBuiltCuriosityAncientObsessedAspirationCosmosTransientMomentarySwarmsDeepest LoveMayflies Book:The Map of Heaven: How Science, Religion, and Ordinary People Are Proving the Afterlife Source: The Map of Heaven: How Science, Religion, and Ordinary People Are Proving the Afterlife

“We have to move the meter in sports in Africa, especially basketball. With the growth of the NBA globally, we have to figure out more ways to develop facilities, coaching, leagues, and youth development in Africa. The talent is incredible. Especially physically. How do we get the youth to start playing at an early age just like in soccer? The future is bright. We now have an NBA office in Africa, we have legends and Hall of Famers, we have African assistant coaches, front office members, and some prominent African players over the last 10 years.
