Catching My Breath

Life Is Happening All Too Fast?

To pontificate something then regurgitate repeatedly is starting to work on my nerves. This is exactly what happens when going down to the beach, like gliding on a time capsule one reflects at the same time as trying to look forward.

When Hive made a big move two years ago it gave everyone something positive to concentrate on, no cheeky little bugger was going to upset what was to be decentralized. Yesterday 20th March was our 2nd birthday, amazing what growth has been accomplished in a short time.

Little did we know many stood firm in decision making to keep moving forward whilst paralyzed being under local lockdowns, learning of new virus in town, this too would affect each and every one of us, our lockdown was announced 23rd March 2020.

Riots, civil unrest hit our region on the 9th May 2021, I know how fearful we all felt, not knowing who would be next during this time. My thoughts then swept directly over to Ukraine with this bloody war going on for four weeks, ours was only one week my head feels like exploding thinking of the horrors they currently live through.

I always feel like there is a hidden agenda, the leaders worldwide playing 'sides', repeating history, no one wins while Joe Average become poor, others are enriching themselves, like Big Pharma with this virus. How many wars must be played out before people can settle to live life.

Today is Human Rights day in South Africa long weekend, when people should be pulling together to build for a better tomorrow most still hide, little truth evolving between all the recent scandals and events. Many of 'commissions of inquiry' and lawyers being paid substantial amounts, while the poor of the poorest go to bed without food or a roof over their head. Tyrants still walk free, no orange pajamas yet!

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are coming more to the foreground, many climb onboard out of FOMO during good times, slightest wobble jump ship, has no one learned it takes time, do research! Actually good to witness slight stability at $40k, for how long, who knows?

Flowing random thoughts, our small blue sparkle in a universe, why are we hell bent on destroying each other with such contempt, dividing rather than working together. Perceived boundaries for all reasons, we are so naive if we believe the war in the North is not going to affect the South.

Or people in the East will not feel detached from the West in a much more momentous way than the West to the East, we rely on each other being human, why do we not reach out and touch each other in more meaningful ways?

Crazy treadmill is life, when one day blame is laid at the feet of a nation for virus, next it is back to war dividing and conquering, when do we ever stop to take a breath and think about the destruction in many levels around us?

Perhaps on arrival to walk ones thoughts go to "stop the world I want to get off", after the walk mulling through many happenings one thinks "hell no, there is still much to do", keep positive, stay kind and treat each other, ours is a small world!
