Our ancestors are always with us. In these troubling times I believe we are called upon to be aware of the presence of our ancestors and to seek their guidance and strength as we traverse this Universe that is littered with hate, brutality and inequality. We are never alone. We stand on the shoulders of […]
We have to break free of our defeatist mindset. We are all born equal with the same rights to all of the Universe’s resources. Know who you are and that nothing or no one can take your self worth away from you. What we are made to put up with is the greed and avarice […]
If you don’t feel good about yourself don’t lead other people astray who may, like you, be suffering from low self esteem. If you can’t build refrain from destroying another person’s health, job, family and means of creating or earning money for their upkeep and that of their families. We are entitled to […]
We have to sit back and reflect on the choices we make, past and present. Taking stock is an opportunity to see what worked and what were total spoilers. If we don’t carry out an autopsy of why we do what we do there can’t be a catalyst for change. To grow is to evolve […]
I am in awe that some people are so insecure that they need to have dominance over the lives of people who don’t have the political or militaristic power. How can we boast of how powerful we are when we run slipshod over the humanity of our fellow human beings. We know how deep seated […]
When we are content with our status in life we tend to forget that there are other people who are living a life of penury on a daily basis. How can be boastful of our wealth when all around us there is abject poverty, neglect and injustice. There should be an equitable distribution […]
Time is an illusion, all we have is this present moment. We can’t project the future or recreate the past. Now is the only time allotted to us. Let’s seize the moment and do what we need to for there may not be a tomorrow © Norma Bobb-Semple 2020
If we are sane we would be comprehensive of the fact that we are not superior to anyone, including sentient beings. We allow our illusion to possess our rational mind, that is why we commit heinous crimes against humanity, this earth and all living entities. Our conscience should always be our guide. Peace should […]
Hatred is a culture that people choose to be a part of. When we seethe with anger, always towards someone who is defenceless how can we calibrate that as justice. Only cowards can boast of being stronger because of the imbalance of power. We have so much bravado and yet we can’t stop the […]
Joy can appear in any form so we have to be prepared to accept it when it shows up. Packaging shouldn’t play a role in how we relate to the people or things that we attract into our lives. Where there is joy sadness cannot abide. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2020
