Money

When getting rich becomes the core motivation in our lives we lose our humanity and we become charlatans, extortionists, deceivers, liars and manipulators. We see ourselves as the usurper and others as serfs. Money cannot forestall, prevent or postpone death. Naked we came and naked we will return to the source. It’s just a matter […]

Call and Response

Life is not a call and response, it is ordered by us. We are the architects of our lives. Situations beset us because we become consumed with what we see around us instead of being in consultation with that which is within us. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026

Unmasked

Pretence only works for a time, our actions solidifies our deceptions. Lying isn’t a craft, it can’t be brokered or sold. We juggle our broken promises in life’s spheres but eventually all of our balls will cascade onto the ground. Some of us grow rich on pillaging while leaving others bereft and wanting. It’s not […]

Morning Routine

Tell us about your morning routine. My morning routine consists of making petitions, reading, writing, exercising, listening to music, preparing breakfast, grooming and feeding my dogs. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026

Passion

We are all obsessed with something, whether it be wealth, eternal youth, or authoritarianism. Our sight becomes skewed, instead of seeking our purpose we prefer to impede the purpose of others. Life in the flesh is not eternal so it is imperative that we pursue that which we were deemed to be. © Norma Bobb-Semple […]

Portrait

The portraits of our lives are painted by our actions. What we say is inconsequential, what we do is all that matters. Cruelty does not create compliance. Erect behaviour and an adherence to consequences are the mediums needed in creating masterpieces of our life’s work. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026

Most underrated life skill

What’s the most underrated life skill? The most underrated life skill is being able to manage oneself. We have to be assertive, goal oriented, disciplined, moral and ethical. Mastery of self is a worthy skill that’s attainable to us all. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026

Feelings

Feelings have to be kept in check by common sense. If we allow our primate feelings to roam unfettered we become pawns in the hands of the preyers. Talents are innate, we are born with them. Beware of those who see our light and are only around us in order to steal and profit off […]

Wanting

A person that is always wanting can never be satiated. Acquiring things becomes a race, chasing ghosts, never satisfied, disillusionment follows because continuous thirst can never be quenched. When will enough not be enough for some of us. Our ride in this life ends whether we are ready or not. Stay focused, you were born […]
