Since last, It has been an endeavoring,challenging and nail biting experience of whacking out the hormones vs. reality. Finding out men actually do need instructions to everything, and are NOT wired the same way as what we would love to fantasise about.
It was with great expectant and awesome joy to have found out that it will be another little XY chromosome that will occupy our lives from the 9th of March 2011, and that this Beany Boy Momma, will have to haul out all the preconceived ideas of having a little companion on my beauty sprees, although deep within me, I somehow had that gnawing gut feeling...it would be a little man.
Beany Boy Pappa, will most definitely have a fellow reverse engineer...and have an explanation of everything dissected, proven already decades ago by our most inventive forefathers. Igniting, exploding, catapulting and launching every available imaginative detail in sprawling laughter...and love.
In all this, I've also come to the conclusion that most of all- The inner fighting inertia, rebellion and anger bred into us as South Africans towards our political era, back "home" is all worthless without the common enemy, for there is none really, here.
There's no extra third eye necessary to watch for taxi's skipping robots, driving on the N14 at night and fearing for a brick that usually is thrown off the Jean or Malibongwe (Hans Strijdom) bridges, just to terrorize and water the seeds of deception that undisciplined democracy has planted.
However, this is what is the bond between us all. Perception vs Reality.
Others perceive it as just another African Country, but the difference is, Rooibos grows there..But in reality, carefully played and manipulated poverty, so that those that practice nepotism, polygamy, gluttony and undisciplined indulgences get away with it all. Thus employing the court jester, so that the evil town sheriff may get away on an alibi....is this not an old divide and conquer strategy?
Thus hoping in a Robin Hood, that could find a Merlin to shake a bolt of lightning loose to make hasty ash of those who dare. I wish, I truly, truly wish...but alas...it is a Grimm Tale but without an oven to toss the evil witch/s into.
Therefore, in the true spirit of Thanksgiving, I am thankful, I can sit here at my desk in my fortunate state of mind, in a First world country, knowing that Uncle Sam, unfortunately is able to stick his nose wherever he may like to....and it is shocking to know that it can only take one Aircraft Carrier to my home country to show that the whole Air-force put together in that specific country would be as useless as trying to explain what a hermaphrodite is to my home countries court jester..... Thus I feel saddened...with so much potential, what has happened....fools have rushed in, and made fools of fools arguing with fools, that touch each other on their studio's.
And here I end my post with the following wise words from an Ancient King inspired by Wisdom
Proverbs 3
Guidance for the Young
1 My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands;
2 For length of days and long life
And peace they will add to you.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you;
Bind them around your neck,
Write them on the tablet of your heart,
4 And so find favor and high esteem
In the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall directa]">[a] your paths.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the LORD and depart from evil.
8 It will be health to your flesh,b]">[b]
And strengthc]">[c] to your bones.
9 Honor the LORD with your possessions,
And with the firstfruits of all your increase;
10 So your barns will be filled with plenty,
And your vats will overflow with new wine.
11 My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD,
Nor detest His correction;
12 For whom the LORD loves He corrects,
Just as a father the son in whom he delights.
13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom,
And the man who gains understanding;
14 For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver,
And her gain than fine gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies,
And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand,
In her left hand riches and honor.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her,
And happy are all who retain her.
19 The LORD by wisdom founded the earth;
By understanding He established the heavens;
20 By His knowledge the depths were broken up,
And clouds drop down the dew.
21 My son, let them not depart from your eyes—
Keep sound wisdom and discretion;
22 So they will be life to your soul
And grace to your neck.
23 Then you will walk safely in your way,
And your foot will not stumble.
24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.
25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror,
Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes;
26 For the LORD will be your confidence,
And will keep your foot from being caught.
27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
When it is in the power of your hand to do so.
28 Do not say to your neighbor,
“ Go, and come back,
And tomorrow I will give it,”
When you have it with you.
29 Do not devise evil against your neighbor,
For he dwells by you for safety’s sake.
30 Do not strive with a man without cause,
If he has done you no harm.
31 Do not envy the oppressor,
And choose none of his ways;
32 For the perverse person is an abomination to the LORD,
But His secret counsel is with the upright.
33 The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicked,
But He blesses the home of the just.
34 Surely He scorns the scornful,
But gives grace to the humble.
35 The wise shall inherit glory,
But shame shall be the legacy of fools.
Amen
