I expand possibilities for people.
That's the value that I bring.

SMALL ADVENTURES

And I think over again
My small adventures
When from a shore wind I drifted out
In my kayak
And thought I was in danger.
My fears,
Those small ones
That I thought so big,
For all the vital things
I had to get and to reach.

And yet, there is only
One great thing,
The only thing:
To live to see in huts and on journeys
The great day that dawns
And the light that fills the world.

--Song from the Kitlinguiharmiut.
Copper Inuit. Northern Canada.

Recorded and translated by Knud Rasmussen, The Report of the Fifth Thule Expedition, 1921-1924, the Danish Expedition to Arctic North America
