    The definition of a great warrior is a champion who goes humbly to others with a smile and an open mind to learn. I have never heard of this kick boxer, Mr. Duarte before, but he embodies this principle. I respect Mr. Duarte immensely.
    And the Senegalese are very intriguing. Their exuberance and happiness are striking and infectious, especially compared to us comparatively wealthy Americans who can only take things for granted and complain about 1st world problems. I would love to be able take my wife and son to visit Senegal. To experience the culture, people, and take in some Senegalese Wrestling would be life changing.

Corruption is widespread and police does not work and save their citizens. Yes, some people are happy but most of them live in fear and without suitable nutrition.

Hope some day you guys find other aspects of our culture for example there is a season where some of us through rituals and the way they dress and paint their faces can really look like lions we call it ( simb ) and it has also a story behind ( sometimes scary ) , the country map has the shape of a lion , the animal totem of senegal is the lion . Also the children of senegal are also called de lions of the teranga which means the lions that welcome you .
