Magnanimous


A word usually reserved for big men. Modesty preculdes the use for self description. Miserliness precludes the use on one's peers.

Last light at the Fairy Cave in Sarawak. The staircases indicate the scale of this landmark. Those big leaves on the big boulders are actually a species of very big Gesneriad that locals called "One-leaf". Its related to the African Violet and the Latin name is Monophyllea ....which means: one-leaf. More on this unique plant later.
