IT WAS WRITTEN IN THE STARS - AN ACCOUNT OF LIVES IMPACTED BY 'EVERYDAY ADVERSITIES.' PART 22.

'Like death and bereavement, at times when we are experiencing what seems like 'our worse nightmares.'  

We tend not to be aware of the fact that, 'our worse nightmares' are in fact no more than everyday adversities which many other people are having to contend with.'

Not all of them would have resulted in harm to Kazaliwa, but some in him having harmed others seriously.  

Including those which would eventually resulted in him being convicted and given a long prison sentence. 

An event which would lead a member of Kazaliwa's extended family.  Sometime after he had been incarcerated.  

To pose the question as to whether it might not have been a good thing for Kazaliwa to have been sent down? 

On reflection, during calmer times, Mfanyazaki and Nzuri, and, indeed, Kazaliwa, were to find themselves agreeing. 

Since it would turnout that, although they could not have known that it would have been so.  

It was this massive shock which jolted and provided Kazaliwa with the opportunity.  That which he needed to begin to climb back up from the path of the destructive journey he had been sliding down.

There were the times when Kazaliwa would not only be at odds with his enemies, as it were, but also with his family, his friends and acquaintances. 

Times when he would appear to be living or existing in a parallel world or universe, and be either under the influence of drugs.  

Or under the influence of the absence of drugs; both of which could make him equally volatile, aggressive and even violent.
