The world has many strange people doing strange things in the name of strange concepts. The brouhaha this sometimes drags in is unrivalled because oftentimes even confusion is confused.

Let’s yarn a bit about man/woman relationships, now why do we just faff around with people’s emotions as if we are playing ludo, why are we so insensitive and selfish that we do not take the other person’s feelings into consideration when making our choices especially when it concerns them. We chant daily that no man is an island and when we are then given a privileged position in the lives of others, we mess it up. When a man meets a woman and knows that he just wants to “play” with her, does it not make sense for him to put his cards on the table and make sure they are on the same page, instead of waxing lyrical and yarning dust. I tell you, these are the issues that lead many to Armageddon, it is not possible that you break a tender heart into several pieces and not end up with life devouring issues, karma spares no one. Do you lot know that a heart break for many is like physical death, they just never recover, every life decision is now made on the altar of this one failed relationship and others suffer for the pain they carry because hurt people, hurt people.

I know many people who are taken for granted by their spouses and they treat them like last year’s dirty rag, it is very very hurtful, and others that are like furniture, decorating their homes without use, they drift through each day purposeless because they have been made to believe they are worthless.

Las giddy is the worst place ever because even healthy relationships come here to commit suicide, from the temptation of beauty to the temptation of lucre, to the temptation of fame .... a few pursue a bohemian life in the name of individuality whilst others tie themselves with chains to religion sharing their mean spirit around like communion bread, what is worthy of note is the misery that has become a live in lover to them all, the raw hurt that oozes rivers of pain. Another question that continually begs for an answer is the reason why people cling to partners who daily feed them with agony by tormenting their emotions. Why do people cling to their jailer like he is the best thing since sliced bread. The consequences of inertia in a situation where one should have seized back her life is unending, from raising children who we maim, to emptying ourselves of positive energy, the list is endless.

We were born to bloom and grow not to wither and die, we were called forth to complete each other not compete with each other, we were thrown together to partner and multiply not dominate and stunt. We need to learn to empty ourselves into our spouses and then refill at the feet of the Master. We cannot do this life thing without God, trust me when I tell you that his is the only light that can pierce our darkness.

The debauchery out there churns the stomach walahi, the impunity and the rakishness is best described as preposterous, when reason takes a permanent vacation, everything and anything goes.

We need to pause to ponder, we have lost the plot, whatever happened to love and fidelity, courtship and romance, whatever happened to the merging of souls in the name of deep affection? We may need to go back to the drawing board and rejig a few derelict blocks which we used to build our lives, just maybe it is still possible to repair what we spent a lifetime misusing. I don’t think it’s too late to create the life we want, we must not accept just anything, we must aim for the stars. We are that important and our journey is worthy of a permanent glow. It’s not cool to be down in the dump 80% of our lives, exist and breeze through when we have a choice.

Seize the day, define your reality and live it, anyone who cannot fit into your soar and your happy needs to be shown the door, life is difficult enough, you do not then add sleeping with the enemy to the mix. Do you pilgrim.
