person of the week: Neil Armstrong
Person of the week:
Neil Armstrong.
For trying again.
After he nearly died in the first space trip: he didn't give up. He kept his cool.
Neil Armstrong.
For trying again.
After he nearly died in the first space trip: he didn't give up. He kept his cool.
Not many people know that Armstrong took not 1, but two trips
into space.
He made his first journey in 1966 as commander of the Gemini
8 mission, which nearly ended in disaster.
'Armstrong kept his cool
and brought the spacecraft home safely after a thruster rocket
malfunctioned and caused it to spin wildly out of control.
During his next space trip in July 1969,
Armstrong
and fellow astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins
blasted off in
Apollo 11 on a journey to the moon that went down in
the history books.
It took them four days to reach their destination.'

having your cake and ...
have you recently showed your appreciation.?
like tangibly.
to the nursing- community?
no?
the police?
no?
the emergency - medic- team?
well....
I've always wanted to take a cake to our local police station.
Just because.
a big chocolate- cake
and it was worth every cent.
so yes:
the support services,
the folk who work into the night for us...
they can have their cake and eat it.
and so they should ♥

Mr Krouac
"They danced down the streets like dingledodies,
and I shambled after
as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me,
because
the only people for me are the mad ones,
the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk,
mad to be saved,
desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing,
but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow roman candles
exploding like spiders across the
stars .... "
- Jack Kerouac,

true lovers in each happening of their hearts
live longer than all which and every who;
despite what fear denies, what hope asserts,
what falsest both disprove by proving true

person of the week: Sankie Jordaan
Sankie Jordaan wen "person- of -the-week"
omdat sy so 'n dierbare en egte ma is.
Sy is boervrou ( taai en weet hoe om wingerd te snoei )
Sy is knap huisvrou ( sy bak fyn tertjies
en piesangbrood waarvoor jy jou linkerhand sal gee )
Sy is ma van 2.
Dus het sy haarself oopgestel vir die grootste avontuur....
om vlees van jou vlees die wye wêreld in te stuur...
met net 'n bietjie opvoeding en gebede en Montagu-mooi in hul harte...
dapper vrou.
admin vrou
leier vrou
binneshuis-versierder.
♥
en sy kan 'n bakkie deur 'n verspeolde drif ry
en sy is gasvry en deernisvol.
goeie balans.
goeie vrou vir Pierre.

heart things
go where it is cold
go where it is
pure
and melt the ice
with your care and kindness
go where the photographs come alive
and where the earth is hard
the air stings
fishes dance in the ice
and be at peace
with the
brute
force
of nature

Hindi poem...
Hey brother, why do you want me to talk?
Talk and talk and the real things get lost.
Talk and talk and things get out of hand.
Why not stop talking and think?
If you meet someone good, listen a little, speak;
If you meet someone bad, clench up like a fist.
Talking with a wise man is a great reward.
Talking with a fool? A waste.
Kabir says: A pot makes noise if it's half full,
But fill it to the brim -- no sound.
Talk and talk and the real things get lost.
Talk and talk and things get out of hand.
Why not stop talking and think?
If you meet someone good, listen a little, speak;
If you meet someone bad, clench up like a fist.
Talking with a wise man is a great reward.
Talking with a fool? A waste.
Kabir says: A pot makes noise if it's half full,
But fill it to the brim -- no sound.
poet: Kabir.

reality check - Tuesday
Reality check:
everything we are
and everything we have
comes from God.
♥
We did
not do anything
to deserve what we have been given.

It is God's grace, pure and
simple.

mank mank- Maandag malligheid
Ek huppel verby die ure
Mank- Maandag probeer byhou
maar sy grys glimlag rus op my rug.
my gesig gedraai na Donderdag
"Man- terugkom- van- jag-ekspidisie-Dag"
Die spoed van Usain Bolt in my vingers oor die keyboard
die opwinding van nuwe fases in my hart
eks 50 meter voor mank Maandag
Mag hy my nie inhaal nie...
