Love


Having Nolo in my life i have had a chance to explore this thing called love.

We went through a period of some strange not seeing one another recently and I felt like she didn't want me and was avoiding me or something. Then on Tuesday, during Izingane Zobaba, the SABC 1 adaptation of Shakespeare I think, Othello, I was chatting to Precious and she told me shes witting a poem by Shakespeare:let me not to the marriage of true minds. She like, or was it Loves the poem. Apparently Shakespeare hit the nail on the head when it comes to love. I was in a rather foul mood and felt like arguing with her so I did.

The argument made me think what is love? I wanna think I love someone, or some people right now but then What is this love thing.

Every time I ask someone what love is i am told vague answers that don't really tell me what it is exactly or I get a variation of some of the things that shakespeare said in that poem. I think of a few things I heard like: you can't be told what love is you must just experience it for yourself, or love is forever never changing and many things that to me sound like excuses to hide the real truth.

LOVE IS FEAR

Now this is true if humans are evolving, Darwin sort of. I will say it like this a Deity created everything and then allowed it to run on its own. Hopefully that does not offend anyone.

Humans are very social creatures and this is a defense mechanism, strength in numbers. Now the fear of moving away from each other and getting eaten made people develop Love among other things. You can not leave people you love because love is forever, you must take care of those you love because love does not change I can only think of that right now but hopefully you get the point. Love evolved with humans and basically guaranteed that humans would take care of their young and their elderly so that teaching can be imparted and humans can survive longer.

But then maybe because humans love the above happens, take care if the young and elderly and stay with someone forever and seeing this pattern made people like Shakespeare write poems love by many and thus Shakespeare was just an opportunist looking for the attention as all humans do, looking for fame.

if this is not true and anyone can prove it, I will delete this post*

RoAD RaGE

Such a waste of energy and with south africa havig an energy crisis as it is why do people do it?

TAXIS AGAIN!!! Sitting in a taxi I am amused when i see some person cursing at the taxi driver who just did yet another barely legal thing. You should be used to it by now. Taxi drivers are bad but your getting worked up is not going to help much. Then you go and curse at us the taxi passengers who are trying to get to work and school or whatever just like you.

Today some guy in a Merc was cursing at the taxi driver who was driving me to Vasity for blocking his way. Shame, i would like to apologise to that poor man. He was busy cursing and the taxi driver just kept on listening to his feel good house music. Maybe thats what all drivers should do. Get some nice soothing music to relax them and they should expect taxi drivers to do what they do.

If you don't like what the taxi drivers are doing maybe you could just take down the registration number and report them. It may takew time off you busy schedule and you may have to deal with the police which as far as I can tell is not a very good experience but hey... You want justice and if you don't stand who will?
I can't do it because the taxis are sort of my only means of transport and they're advantageous if you're late.

Not so objective of me.. but hey who cares.
