Flashes of memories - MUGABE MUST GO!!! ZIMBABWEANS NEED THEIR HOME BACK

 
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness - Carl Jung To be at one with God is to be at peace ... peace is to be found only within, and unless one finds it there he will never find it at all. Peace lies not in the external world. It lies within one's own soul. - Ralph Waldo Trine

the jumble jamble of a disengaged mind

the silver butterfly unfolded her wings still wet from her birth and raised her head to stare at the silent moon which hung over the beach in the full glare of a day dawned too early and on a sun which would set too soon to the moan of a thousand trees who stretched and groaned and creaked as the hush of a single breath of air raced seductively through the green leaves quivering in the shattered book of a man who no longer wobbled and wore his captains hat but instead stared at the pictures of his long lost lover returned to the dust from whence she came where the tears of the cat washed away every remnant of a mind full of the purple words of the little girl who skipped down the dusty road every day to the rhythm of the gentle sigh of mother earth as she protectively gazed upon her herd of little sheep in the many fields and concrete jungles that scattered messy heaps of human tragedies across shores and mountains and every type of something that every type of brain could imagine
