  A very Big Congratulations to Teams Red Bull and Mercedes and Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas, for making it P'1, 2 and 3, respectively, during the Qualifying session of the 2021 Formula 1 French Grand Prix!!! From the Practising sessions of this Grand Prix, it has always looked as if the Red Bull stable is not only dominant, but also as if the winds of fortune, the odds of winning the French Grand Prix is blowing in their favour.  Lewis and his team mate, Valtteri, might have been hoping that this race would see them performing with the kind of results which would have spoken eloquently of 'normal service resuming.'  But, at least upto the Qualifying session on Saturday, only the Valtteri The Cool, was showing any evidence of this being so, or likely to be so during Qualifying and the actual race tomorrow. Sunday. And yet, there was a big turnaround for Hamilton, even if it was not big enough to give him Pole.  Indeed, considering how he had struggled

  Where it is a political idealism, its advocates intend for it to be realised in this life.  And where it is a religious idealism, its proponents are of the conviction that it will be realised in their next life.  For the realists and pragmatists among us, neither dogma, neither that of the political idealism nor that of the religious idealism can or will ever be achieved.  The value of idealism, therefore, is in what good or benefit it can achieve by guiding you along a particular path.  But it has no real, practical value, in its inability to take its proponents, its advocates and devotees, to the promise land they are offering. It is something to be made use of during ones' 'wilderness years or stage of life.'  The time when we are searching for 'who we are, who am I?'  When we are in search of our identity. Endeavouring to give significance or meaning to ourselves, To our lives.  Trying to become autonomous humans.  To create that original or unique attribute o

  Similarly, while it would be ideal to realise that kind of ideal state in other countries or places.  It is highly improbable that it could be achieved, never mind it being sustained.  We can cure a certain disease, but the probability of curing all diseases for all people and in the same time period, is night impossible.  There is probably only one situation in which we humans are able to achieve and maintain the ideal state.  But it is one which we cannot relish, since the cost of it is that we must give up on or have our lives taken from us.  Ideal as it is, it is also probably the worse purchase we will have made in our lives. In the end, as it were, 'idealism' can be seen as 'a right of passage', 'a developmental stage' through which some or most young people traverse through their lives.  And which some become fixated, whether it be to a political or religious ideology, for most or the rest of their lives.  To be continued!

  And I am reassured, I am grateful, I am thankful of the manner in which they carry out their responsibilities toward my dear mother. I am appreciative of their contribution.  I want to say, thank you for being so nice, so gently and caring towards my dear mother. Much as I think you would, might have been towards your own mother. It is they who help to meet her need for daily human interaction and help to maintain her emotional and psychological health. Yes, there are times when I have observed things that I am not happy about.  Things such as the increased number of different care-workers who sometimes do the rounds on a given day.   Or how a given meal might have been prepared, or could have been better prepared and presented, or how much time my dear mother might have been given on this and that call.  But once I reflect on and appreciate on the organizational limitations of her care-provider.  Such as appreciating that staff who are covering for her regular carers, who happen to

  We have had the debate about whether children who require permanent alternative non-familial carers, should be primarily placed within alternative families reflecting their ethnic, cultural and linguistic attributes.  Although there has been and are people taking up positions at either extreme of this argument.   With some seeing placements within those parameter as absolutely necessary, and others that it is not.  If the question is put to, say, 100 reasonable and relevantly informed persons.   The chances are that the majority would probably agree that there need not be any absolute single need which has to be met. As opposed to ensuring that all of the essential needs will be met to an appropriate standard.   And that the child should be provided with a level of care which enables him/her to feel comfortable in their own skin and identity, in different social and cultural settings, during their lives.  I am not going to try to elaborate on this anymore, because different situation
