Predatory Behaviour

Living a predatory life creates destitution and homelessness. We pay people a minimal wage which is unsustainable, taking into account the high cost of transportation, housing and food.

What worries me about the Future?

What are you most worried about for the future? I am worried that our greed would stop us from healing this planet. Our destructive trendies and appetite for violence is revolting. My wish is that sanity will prevail and we will evolve into a more loving and caring community of humane beings. © Norma Bobb-Semple […]

Coping

Spirituality

How important is spirituality in your life? Spirituality is the main stay in my life, I breathe it with every breath I take. I owe my existence to the divine that lives and dwells in me. My spirituality is the guiding source in my life. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Tenets

Some of us ascribe to the idea of superiority, entitlement and preference. We should examine the tenet of our beliefs. We are either parasitic entitles or we are co-creators. Our purpose on this earth is not one of destruction, it is one of peace, empathy and understanding. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025
