Star gazing.....

         

I am in the wilderness right now under a clear sky watching the stars. It's s crescent moon today and all I hear around me is crickets and the distant laughter of a team having their retreat. There is a faint sound of lovemaking going on in the next the room, lucky them but I wouldn't want it to bother me much. The crescent moon has two stars forming a triangle with it. At first glance they look like stars but in reality I am looking at Jupiter and Venus. An article I read the other day told me that for the last few weeks and for another one week the two planets will seem to be extremely close from our perspective. Questions abound I believe, how is it that the second and fifth planet end up looking so close to each other well I'll probably answer that later. Well so what does this mean to me? Immediately I just think of what someone once told me, only parallel lines don't meet. When two individuals from different backgrounds cultures etc are meant to meet then they will but only if they are on different trajectories. It can actually be likened to a couple of straight guys, they run parallel and have similar intentions that can be termed as similar trajectories. A guy looking for a girl and a girl looking for a guy will cross paths at some point and if they are like Jupiter and Venus depending on the conditions they may collide or just pass each other and be on their merry way. I am saying this because I have met many people in the past few weeks who wonder when they will 'collide' with the one. Well believe me he/she is coming as fast as they can just as Venus moves at 126,077 Km/h and Jupiter moves at 47,051 km/h but they just met in our night skies and haven't met before in a very long time.

The Jupiter and Venus convergence as it is called is due to the fact that our planets revolve around the sun in more of flat plane like formation. For more info, check out news week on the link below.

She killed him.........................

A man’s primary purpose in life is to provide, both for the present and the future. Often, nothing he possesses naturally is seen as inherently valuable. For a woman, however, the opposite is true, as she is born with much of what is deemed valuable for the species. It's a rather bleak topic to discuss, yet it reflects a truth we have come to understand. Recently, I buried a great man who did everything right, though it wasn’t enough to earn him the long life he so deserved. Born and raised in poverty, he was on his way to becoming the best in his field, until he met someone he couldn't resist. As a child, he encountered a beautiful girl whom he believed could walk on water. Their young love blossomed in the dusty, rural farmlands of western Kenya, only for life’s circumstances to separate them for nearly two decades. During their time apart, he built a foundation that his peers from the village could only dream of. From barefoot maize harvests in the village to excelling at a ...

You may be the reason your brother is missing a leg.....

When a new television series comes out the guys producing it want to know whether its a hit or they perform what they call test screenings. Simple enough they put together people representing different demographics and get their feedback. Well I did the exact same thing with the topic of today and It was a unanimous scream of disgust and disbelief. Simply put ,it caught the attention of all the people I tested it on. Just to give my topic a little background i will start by explaining a simple known theory known as "Butterfly effect". If you have watched the movie then you know what i mean. If you haven't watched it or run into it at some point then  , In  chaos theory , the  butterfly effect is the sensitive dependency on initial conditions in which a small change at one place in a deterministic  nonlinear system  can result in large differences in a later state. In a nutshell, a butterfly could flap its wings in one part of the world and ...

Read, it isn't illegal yet....

A little fault with our generation today is, we don't read as much as we should. I know the story of romeo and juliet but I have never read the play, I know of someone who was called Confucios but I cannot recall a single word of wisdom.  Its with this premise i point out a sentence from a famous Nicholas Cage Movie (Lord Of War). 'Evil prevails when good men fail to Act. Poetic as these words are, I cannot base my life or career behind them. Most of us give ourselves the title of good men but we probably wouldn't quit our jobs because the company we work for employs slave labour in harvesting its crops, we wouldn't boycott the purchase of a product because some kids in china are in sweatshops making them for meagre wages etc.  Don't think, not for one second that a person in authority would like the status quo to change. This is simply because it's either profitable or more comfortable for them. How many politicians have been elected to lead certain areas and l...
