Watches

Few people in Lui wear watches. The rhythms are much more natural. You eat an hour or two after waking. You eat again at mid-day, and then again an hour or so after dark. When it’s time for a meeting or for church, somebody begins sounding a drum and folks head to the event. Greeting one another on the pathway is much more important than being “on time.”
