The Circle of Life

april 23rd, 2008

Today, as I was walking early in the morning around Newbold, I had a real Lion King moment.

I looked to the field, saw 4 deer standing, and found myself going: ‘Nants ingonyama bagithi baba’

And just as in the movie (where I think it’s an antelope or zebra, but still), one of the deer raised its head and looked towards me.

So I kept going: ‘Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw’ enamabaal’ (which I’ve just now discovered mean ‘it’s a lion and a tiger’)

And suddenly I felt the sun rising to my right, and surely, when I looked, there it was. Admittedly, the little red dot was not as impressive as the African sunrise depicted in Lion King, but still.

It was my Lion King moment
