A Conversation of Meaning






Marcela and her daughter, Isla, went for a stroll and discovered a beauty spot - filled with wildflowers and lavender fields under a blue sky and sunny spells. It could only be described as breathtaking. Marcela and Isla lost themselves amongst the meadows; it stirred up their creative spirit and left them both deep in thought.

 A rainbow shortly appeared, which moved Marcela to share a profound moment with Isla. Marcela said, “When we look up into the sky, most will only see the external beauty of the rainbow and fail to see the real appeal that actually lies from within. Whenever darkness strikes, light is also near, comforting and guiding us through life’s trials. Just like when the rain meets the sun, it’s the universe showing us there is light after darkness.

 Marcela added, “Life is rarely a smooth line. For a rainbow to appear there has to be a little downpour, just like this morning but it turned into a glorious day. Life today has become more about things and chasing. Less about the pursuit of love, hope, peace and joy. The irony is that most problems which exist stem from the lack of those things that keep us whole. A life-changing human act of being forgiving in an unforgiving world is a war of mercy because, without it, one would perish.”

Even in the midst of hardships, love always wins in the end because love is always stronger. This observation can be seen as insignificant and unimportant but important nothings are like landscapes, fluid and interchangeable, which having many interfaces that reflect and reveal. Marcela left Isla with the final thought, “Important nothings are a not just a thing. It is of many things that help us to navigate the little wonders of life. Enabling us to embrace the wanderlust of exploration, appreciation and journeying through time.”

Highly Effective People Strives For Excellence

Hello I hope you enjoyed the last 2 special blog posts about Parentalk and Abuse. I felt it was important for me to use this platform to raise awareness on topics that could make a positive impact on future generations. This week is back to talking about life, inspiration, motivation and ideas-this post was actually inspired by a rather dysfunctional event. Every day we have many distractions, which can keep us from our destiny if we chose to be consumed by it.  Our dreams has to be bigger than our current reality to cause us not to sweat the smaller stuff and that involves letting some things or people go. The difference between effective and not-effective people is how we chose to channel it. Below is how (after the initial annoyance) I done it. Just to put this into context- the individual(s) concerns were unable to take accountability for their actions / errors, instead what I observed was a misuse of power and the slow demise of an outdated organisation. Enjoy...

A seemingly insignificant act has the potential to change the world...

I loved learning about the story of Reformation Day. The significance centres on how the Bible became accessible for everyone to read - historically the general public wasn’t allowed to read it, only priests or those considered anointed within the church were allowed to read it. The priests read the Bible in Latin, so for most people, it wasn’t even possible to read it. God’s word was entrusted into the hands of those in power, who were deemed qualified to understand it.  What the priests were teaching, was not actually in line with what the Bible said, as one monk, called Martin Luther found out. He started to read the Bible for himself out of pure frustration.  According to the teachings of the priests, believing in God seem to be just to be an endless set of rules and it left him feeling as if he could never be good enough for God. Little did he know at the time, he was about to birth a revolution that quite literally changed the world. This set him on a path of ...
