18000
412.00 for my round trip to Africa
I wanted to see the scenery
The pyramids and the sphinx in Egypt, the red sea, the jordan river
It's better than always seeing my neighborhood, the LA river and the Jordan Downs
I wanted to explore the desert and see the elephants dwell but instead I learned a lesson
This was a life lesson, this wasn't something I could learn in the Carmelitos or 83rd and western
I went on a tour and we encountered a male lion with his cub
I saw him put his arm over the cub, rub the cubs head with his and the cub stayed in one place as he went and got the grub
The lion creeped up on a zebra, low to the ground and very swift
I was amazed that a monster that big could move that quick
After attacking and killing the zebra, he dragged it towards the cub
He began to walk around the cub, protecting it as it ate the zebra and it's face became covered in blood
We then came across a cub nudging at the body of a male lion who was lifeless
We had never seen nothing like this
The cub continued to nudge him as if he was gonna wake up
But he didn't. And the cub roared and roared as hard as he could and he put his head down and walked away
I learned two lessons. One: in order to become a lion, a cub has to lose a lion
Lesson two: when your fathers a lion and he teaches you whether purposely or unintentionall, Listen never defy them
Later that night, I got away from the tour and saw the same cub in the middle of the field
His head was up bit his soul was not filled
And then we both learned the lesson we must live with until we until we go in the ground
Lesson three: our fathers will never appear ito us in an empty fields in the clouds
