  Such is the anomaly and paradox of religion, that, not only do different faiths set about killing each other and destroying their property.   But different versions of the same faith or religion will attack each other in order to try to enforce conformity with what they see as the 'orthodox' or 'true version' or their religion.  And what does God supposedly think of this irrational and unGodly behaviour?  Only God knows, because, despite those who say they speak for God, nobody knows the truth, because God does not, and has never been known to converse with humans.  Though humans, in their moment of contemplation, and their imaginings, do make fallacious claims that God has spoken to them. But, of course, God does not know what to make of humans insistence on forcing, to compelling and to socialising people into practising this or that faith.   As, irrespective of what those who say they are 'believers' believe and try to force others into believing, the exist

  A sense of independence and of wanting to do things for yourself and to your standard or expectation, even when you are no longer capable of carrying out such tasks as you were once able to do.  And so it soon becomes a matter of having 'to let go.' Of having no only to experience the pain, even if  sometimes joyful pain.   Of 'letting go of our children', as they become more independent, as they acquire the skills, the knowledge, the age and understanding and maturity to enable them to leave home and branch out on their own 'journey of life.'  But now, as one approaches the end of the road, as it could be termed, a person moving towards the void, must also increasingly 'let go' of the things they have and had control over.  Of their independence, of their way of doing things, of their established ways of thinking, of their daily routines.  These, then, are some of the major challenges that my dear mother is confronted with.  As are others at or approa

  A Very Big Congratulations to Max Verstappen and Team Red Bull, for winning the 2021 Formula 1 Dutch Gran Prix, at the Zandvoort Circuit on Sunday 5th September 2021. And to Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas and Team Mercedes, for making it to P.2 and P.3. Having prepared the ground for the easing of tensions between Teams Mercedes and Red Bull during the practice and Qualifying sessions of much anticipated Dutch Grand Prix.   It was truly satisfying and enjoyable to observed Max and Lewis and Bottas fist-bumping, hand shaking, hugging and champagning one another during the post race rituals.  Yes, it is likely that this display of comradeship and sportsmanship is still only another stage of a still on-going process, rather than the completion of the process.  But nevertheless, it is a most welcoming sight to observe arch-rivals Max and Ham hugging each other, even if, in doing so, they stand a better chance of  concealing the knives of rivalry which drives both of them on the racin

  Kazaliwa did not take too long to find himself  another sales job, and, this time, one which saw him making more money than he had ever worked for before.  No longer did he have to be travelling all over this and that county far away from home.  This time he only had to make sure that he woke up in time to catch the bus to take him to the City Centre about 10 or 12 miles away.  This job would allow him to become an even more seasoned sales person.  In fact, one of the leading performers in the team in which he worked.  His salesmanship and achievements, including him having won a smart watch, boosted his already very high, some might even say, bombastic self-confidence.  Indeed, when his dad, Mfanyazaki, reflected mirthfully on his son, he would be amused by how it seems that, Kazaliwa only had to think of some new idea for him to consider it done.  Mfanyazaki would at times think that his son does not always keep track of and be aware of the distance and sometimes difficult challeng

  There is, to me, no evidence of a child being born into this world being fearful of any ideas, concept, theory, culture, religion or tradition.  As the saying goes, a child being born into our world is 'like a blank slate.'  He/she, providing their physical and brain infrastructure and functioning is healthy, ready to absorb not only the food and drink they are programmed into eating and drinking.  But they are also pre-set to absorb the information which their external environment, including their parents/carers, will expose them to.  Although us humans are or can be either 'prey or predator.' I suspect that, unlike the young of some of other 'prey and predator' species of the animal world, where, say a newly born deer, might smell danger and seek whatever cover it can.  Our newly born human babies are probably less discerning about its environment and who or what it should trust and fear. Fear is not, I think and believe, is an emotion which a child has been

  A Very Big Congratulations to the Rain God for having won the day, during what was to have been the Belgian Grand Prix of the 2021 Formula 1 Season! Yes, Sunday 29th August 2021 should have been a memorable day of high excitement for Formula 1 racing fans and audience.   As it was meant to be the day when the Belgian Grand Prix launches from the Grid at the Circuit de Spa Francorchamps.  For the much anticipated second half of Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton's  battle for the 2021 Drivers' Championship. But alas, it was not to be, as the heavens, even more than it had done during Qualifying, continue to open up and pour vast quantities, torrent of waters down on the circuit.  The Rain God, in his/her most sublime display of unabated and unsurpassed power, forced the humans to abandon the Grand Prix  Not only would the racers have had to content with the sheets of water arrayed on the circuit to unexpectedly bring their attempts at foolhardiness to grief.  But they would al

  'In the making of a watch or something delicate, there can be a time when the process requires the creator to be forceful, and there will be other times when the the process requires great skill and intricacy.' A Very Big Congratulations to Max Verstappen and Team Red Bull, for making it to Pole, in an at times torrid Qualifying session of the Belgian Grand Prix.  And to George Russell and Team Williams and Lewis Hamilton and Team Mercedes, for making it to P.2 and P.3, respectively.  As the Brilliant Lando Norris lost control and spectacularly crashed out in the challenging watery conditions of Q.3 The Practice sessions and Qualifying provided Hamilton, Verstappen and all the now more competitive 'gladiatorial' racers with the opportunity to practice and sharpen their skills, tactics and strategies prior to Sunday's Grand Prix.  It is an opportunity which they have all taken, with some of them, including Verstappen, Leclerc and Norris paying a price with crashes.
