Monologue: The Ethiopian’s story

Monologue: The Ethiopian’s story What an amazing coincidence! I still find it hard to explain – even after telling so many people the story. Some of them found it almost impossible to believe that it happened. But I know it did. How would you have felt if it had happened to you? …
