Now that the volcano is over, the rocks have hardened from the pressure. God! But diamonds really form deep down in the dark! We just don’t know when found what our intrinsic value is and that which we can give out – T. Dench Patel, 9 December 2020, 22:08 We just don’t know how close we are to the surface when we’ll be found, and so giving up, please, giving up is no option. Trial and test, we’re always up against something new and the line is drawn after that. That fear has given and taken from us something that we will only understand one day.

When writing my books, The South African: True Colours and all other books so far, I considered this a lot, I consider the work of Indians, Asians, i.e., what this industry refers to certain writers by labelling them as BAME (Black, Asian, Minority and Ethnic). BAME writers have to really go through some unrealistic hurdles to be considered as English writers or to have the opportunity to be published.

I don’t know how else to put it, see even the aborigines look out for signs to know if they’re on the right path. You will know it when you are on the right path, and the signs will still keep showing up, in doubt, they show up, even more, to remind us that we are on the right path. So, especially in times like these a lot of people are finding it hard to keep the faith, the belief has been shaken, their plans have been shaken and things can look a bit cloudy, while for others things can and are looking really dark.

Quick wins or slow wins Do it right, good and bad karma is promised to all, but tomorrow is promised to no one

Quick wins – Plant anywhere, throw anything in it, try quickly various things and methods to make it grow (meaning short cuts and short processes), less or nil studying, less or nil planning, less or nil applying, see what makes it grow at a quicker rate, let it ripen (unless you cut it premature), prepare it nicely (if you have time), deliciously (if you have time), share it (if you have time), more will come if you have prepared the land nicely, the roots are in, firm and the environment is perfect, and keep nurturing it. (Some mistakes can never be undone).

Changing right from the start or later pay for an expensive therapist, maybe even an expensive divorce! Oof! What if you have to pay for both Most of all, is it worth having your life on the line

Changing right from the start or later pay for an expensive therapist, maybe even an expensive divorce! Oof! What if you have to pay for both? Most of all, is it worth having your life on the line?

Why would you want to live the pain, the heartache, the toxicity, the negativity, the destruction of dignity, the power game, i.e. basically the downward spiral? Only to get further down, emotional bankruptcy to the next stage, financial bankruptcy? Often when something has passed beyond the point of returning the chances are it can’t return, or it won’t return unless the person becomes their own hero.
