And so it dawns on one…

Sometimes its truly amazing that, even with our newly, renewed or slightly committed enthusiasm for ‘carpe diem’ or seizing the day how wrong we can be… I often find that the harder we try to alter our path, our thoughts, our actions etc. there is often some ‘pushback’ from the universe (or Murphy) which leads me to conclude that as much as we resist change at times, the universe also only accepts and approves when it deems appropriate.
This is important cos it can oftentimes explain the many unsuccessful, less than fruitful/enjoyable, and downright frustrating attempts we make to ‘carpe the Diem’… So dont be harsh on yourself, don’t dump all the blame at your feet and ponder your insignificance or your perceived failure, cos sometimes it quite literally is just the world fucking with you!!

Time for change...

Or should it be change with time? Sometimes I feel we get the two confused... I think we should live true according to our heart's knowledge of what's right, strive to live that way despite the hardship that may at times arise and in that way, as the cliche goes we can be the change we want to see in the world!!!

We are warriors, of sorts...

I get that there are 'different' types of Christians in the world, and indeed that it takes all types of people, Christian and otherwise to make the world, I myself don't understand why people put so much effort into trying to convert 'other' religions to their own because I dont think religion (or faith) defines a persons character, or implies some form or depth of integrity... I just don't get it, its not to say I'm right or wrong, but if we focussed more on living better lives, giving more, being more empathetic, more gracious in defeat, more sharing in victory and more loving then I'm convinced that we'll be better people and the world, in some incremental way would be a better place, whatever faith we practice! The piece above, I did purely to convey that at times it takes a bit of delivry to create the best angels...not always, but battles and wars are far from fairytales and love poems...

Great quote on Affirmative Action in SA

“South Africa is the only country in the world where affirmative action is in the favour of the majority who has complete political control. The fact that the political majority requires affirmative action to protect them against a 9% minority group is testament to a complete failure on their part to build their own wealth making structures, such that their only solution is to take it from others.” London Times
