Sad
I still feel quite sad about the whole Nagaland thing. The project from the start has been filled with all these issues, and they continue on today. It is hoped that they will start treating patients in two and a bit weeks, I’m hoping that it will make me feel happy. Even if it doesn’t it makes my time there worth something.
I hate how much it all still affects me. I had almost moved on…

It sounds like its been pretty frustrating. There is no doubt whatever happens that your time has been worth something. For you personally it gave you the opportunity to step out and believe in your self and teh people of Nagaland. To actually get a gig like that in Australia would have been along way down the track.
Big stuff like setting up a whole institution will always be full of political stuff and tooing and frowing. The Desert Peoples centre has taken over ten years to get from concept to teh building of buildings. The building was on the budget for four years before they actually turned a sod. Its been a bit of a joke here but the fact is its still happening and now I have a role in its development. Thats what scares me. Someone who was never even thought of for all of those ten years.
And finally you’ve been an inspiration to others in the way you’ve gone about your part of the task.
No David it may or may not be this year or next year but the place will fly and your role has been seminal.

Well I clicked comments to make a comment to you, David but now I want to say thanks to Keith for what he said. I found it helpful for some of my own stuff. So sorry David no comment for you but I imagine Keith’s says to you what I would want to say only better.
