...so we all grow, we all leave the teenagehood spent hating our parents because they know so little. they just don't get it. we tell ourselves that if they could get on with the game, then it all would be okay. we enter a life of adulthood where we become adults, when we realise that whatever ideas we had about our parents were all wrong. we spend the first few years of adulthood apologising in our actions to our parents. we think, if i act right then s/he will know that i am sorry and i didn't mean any utternaces i may have said in my teenage years
after leaving varsity, we set out for the 'real' world. and a real world it is. i'm still asking myself if this world is merciful to its inhabitants. i've just heard it's not. but the research is not done. before a memoir gets out an extensive research has to be done. varsity is a well coated shell. of course that is my opinion based on careful observation. (and this particular blog is will never be done until a book is out. so, this is a work is progress. )
tides are very strange, some a beautiful, some are very cruel, merciless and inconsiderate. some tides' cruelty is brought on by us, individuals or as a collective. the question i would like to get to is how does one take a stride in the tides? is it possible to?
as a nation and and the world we are currently facing the biggest tide in the history of the world. everybody is struggling. everybody is either drowning or trying by all means to keep the head above water, and i mean very hard. myself included. we are all facing it. we look toward the sky where we know the Lord is watching. hence the word, 'if my people who are called by my name shall humble themselves and repent, i come down from heaven and hear them.' this is of course a paraphrase out of 2 Chronicles 7:14. we all need the Lord.
as i said, this is a work in progress so i'm still thinking, let me know what you think. write to me
