Dr. Howard Thurman. Gil Bailie tells the story in the first paragraph of the “In Gratitude” section of his 1995 book, Violence Unveiled: Humanity at the Crossroads (New York: Crossroad Publishing Company), on page xv. This is evidently the only place the quotation is in print:<br /><br />“Once, when I was seeking the advice of Howard Thurman and talking to him at some length about what needed to be done in the world, he interrupted me and said, ‘Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.'”<br />Please correct this. Dr. Thurman was a great African-American leader in this country and ahead of his time and deserves to be rightly attributed.

I had not been in haiti before the endeavor and the foundation that sent me there was telling me the "facts" some were verbalized and some was researched. This post was facts, population, water issues etc...After I went, I did notice some of the things that you have mentioned along with their pride and willingness to progress. <br /><br />It is interesting to read your perspective. I actually saw many start up projects that were walked away from and never finished. This was disappointing to those near or part of the projects. It was as though the donors started something right after the earthquake with a bunch of money and then left without following up. I would see the disappointment in their eyes when they would show me this or that.<br /><br />I was sorry to see that so many projects would be left unfinished. It could be that there was a ton of money after the earthquake available and it slowly dwindled away. Thank you for your input. Sorry it took me so long to see your comment.

The different sub-cultures explain Haiti Today (2012) with different perspectives. "<br /><br />If you want to understand Haiti start by listening and focusing on what is going right, Haitians helping Haitian, the beauty and pride of the Haitian people, etc. By increasing the focus on what is working, you will help magnify it, open the doors to more opportunities, increase the pride and motivation of the Haitian people and drive the evolution of progress forward and positive.<br />I was in Haiti for the earthquake and have seen the impact first hand of what Haitians are capable of. The results of so much focus being on what is still wrong is that donors no longer want to give because it feels like too much risk. Transparency is important, progress takes time and yes things do go wrong. BUT a lot has gone right and these things need to be highlighted so that donor confidence can be directed effectively to programs that build an independent sustainable future. Instead money goes to those with the best marketing strategy and emotional appeal. Sadly that usually means programs that create ongoing dependency on charity which the Haitians silently resent. <br />I just returned from Haiti two days ago and across the country villages and cities are cleaner than they have ever been in the last 5 years. The ministry of tourism is making a big push to open the doors to tourism with welcoming arms. Haiti has so much beauty to share if people know where to look. Projects like yours can really help see this beauty and the opportunities. Donations used like capital investment helps increase ongoing opportunities. People prefer to invest in things that work. Highlighting the positive can help keep Haiti growing.
