Oseola McCarty
LATE ONE SUNDAY AFTERNOON in September 1999, Oseola McCarty, an elderly cleaning lady passed away in the little wooden flame house where she had lived and worked most of her life. It may seem like an ordinary end to a humble life, but there was something quite exceptional about this woman.
In the summer of 1995, McCarty gave $150,000, most of the money she had saved throughout her life, to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown. The money was to help other African Americans through university. She had started her savings habit as a young child when she would return from school to clean and iron for money which she would then save.
She led a simple, frugal existence, never spending on anything but her most basic needs. Her bank also advised her on investing her hard-earned savings.
When she retired, she decided that she wanted to use the money to give children of limited means the opportunity to go to university. She had wanted to become a nurse, but had to leave school to look after ill relatives and work. When asked why she had given her life savings away, she replied, "I'm giving it away so that children won't have to work so hard, like I did." After news of her donation hit the media, over 600 donations were made to the scholarship fund. One was given by media executive, Ted Turner, who reputedly gave a billion dollars.
She didn't want any fuss made over her gift, but the news got out and she was invited all over the United States to talk to people. Wherever she went, people would come up to her to say a few words or to just touch her. She met the ordinary and the famous, President Clinton included. In the last few years of her life, before she died of cancer, McCarty was given over 300 awards：she was honoured by the United Nations and received the Presidential Citizen's Medal. Despite having no real education, she found herself with two honorary doctorates：one from the University of Southern Mississippi and the other from Harvard University. Her generosity was clearly an inspiration to many and proof that true selflessness does exist.

Travel Across Africa For six hours we shot throu
Travel Across Africa
For six hours we shot through the barren（荒芜的） landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending，Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth，a beautiful leather notebook I'd bought in a market in Mozambique.
Southern Africa was full of stories. And visions，We were almost drunk on sensations The roaring （咆哮） of the water at Victoria Falls，the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana.
And then the other things: dogs in the streets，whole families in Soweto living in one room， a kilometre from clean water.
As we drove towards the setting sun，a quietness fell over us. The road was empty-we hadn't seen another car for hours. And as I drove，something caught my eye，something moving close enough to touch them，to smell their hot breath. I didn't know how long they had been there next to us.
I shouted to Dan："Look！but he was in a deep sleep，his camera lying useless by his feet. They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us，a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape.
When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.
"Wild horses？ he said. "Why didn't you wake me up，Sophia？"
"I tried：But they were gone after a few seconds.
"Are you sure you didn't dream it？"
"You were the one who was sleeping！"
"Typical", he said. "The best photos are the ones we never take."
We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
