Thought for the day - 13 September 2011

Be a good friend and you will be surrounded by good friends. Don't judge people unless you want to be judged by them. Don't pick fights with friends unless you're willing to lose them for it. Be kind to strangers, coz you never know when you'll need the kindness of a stranger.

Lightning and love

The old saying tells us that lightning never strikes twice Does the same apply to love then? If lightning goes all over, striking the same spot only once, Is it that then that makes humans also not love the same person twice? Do us, as humans, go around the world, striking a new person each time And never loving the same person twice? It's some sort of rare phenomenon when lightning strikes twice So does that mean that when you love, move on and love the same person again, it's a rare phenomenon? Or does love just make fools of us all...?

So what are you going to do? Are you going to stay home and mope all day because today was not the day or are you going to take today and prepare for that day? Are you going out the...

Ulpotha - Back to life, Back to reality

I know that many people use the term "Back to life, Back to reality" when they return from a    vacation. I am one of them! Going to Ulpotha had the exact opposite effect on me this vacation around... On arrival I was transported back to my childhood. I walked into Kade Hut (breakfast hut) and the smell of the coal fire reminded me of trips we used to take to the Free State to visit my granny. The smell reminded me of early morning family breakfast in that big old kitchen. It smelt like home  Kade Hut Taking a trip with a crazy best friend, meant the arrival was slightly blurry due to too much bubbly in-flight but that didn't stop that childhood memory from seeping into my consciousness. We were shown to our mud hut by the lovely retreat manager Suzi. ( Btw, she reminds me so much of my Aunt Lydia (Lala) that I had even more child likeness resonate with me during the stay.)  The first 2 days were a blur. It's amazing how much sleep o...
