Primitive but needed. Some peace loving people question the logic of the statement. If you want peace, prepare for war. But certain things in life do raise questions. Why is it such that the Defense Ministry is in charge for purchasing weapons and MIG attack planes, and F22's and such. A simple precaution, once we take the worst thing that can happen into account, we are well prepared for any disappointment that turns up. If you want to ensure you wake up in the morning, best thing to do is to stay up all night, till morning comes. Yes you may be sleepy, drowsy, not at your most optimal self but the point I'm making here is that you will be physically present. A funny statement SVPP is. I learned it from the dark hero, The Punisher. A simple marvel comic action hero that has no majestic powers or skills. Instead he relies on tenacity, plain integrity, and fights for Justice. A famous quote from the movie that reverberates around my mind goes as such;
Frank Castle: I leave this as a declaration of intent - so no one will be confused.
Frank Castle: 1. "Sic vis pacem parabellum." Latin. Boot Camp Sergeant made us recite it like a prayer. "Sic vis pacem parabellum - If you want peace, prepare for war."
Frank Castle: 2. Frank Castle is dead. He died with his family.
Frank Castle: 3. In certain, extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law. To pursue - natural justice. This is not vengeance. Revenge is not a valid motive, it's an emotional response. No, not vengeance. Punishment.
There comes a point in time when a decision has to be made solely on a gut feeling and I personally call it the natural balance of life. When you are in the position to change things, when you are the pivotal axis of the balance and you're sick of playing that balancing act, it is then you REACT. I firmly use the word ''react' to stamp my situation. For only when an action has been taken, can a reaction be present.
Incidentally let me indemnify another source of ambiguity. Voodoo Child does not refer to a puppet master. No it's not a statement of my manipulative skills or sort. Voodoo Child is a great piece played by the legendary Jimi Hendrix. A maestro that was so poor to buy a left handed guitar that he just switched his guitar the other way and restrung the guitar to his liking. The whiners go around yearning to be the best and wishing everyone the best of luck. I for one feel luck is but a matter of chance. To get lucky you gotta take that chance. Luck favours the brave. Jimi Hendrix awoke from his humble beginnings as an African American kid to shadow some greats from his era, cross reference- Clapton, Bowie, Page. The really good ones don't talk bout being the best, they just go out there and do it. hence the song Voodoo Child. '' As I stand up next to the mountain, and chop it off with the edge of my hand"......"Cos I'm a Voodoo Child, Love don't stop a Voodoo Child......''If I see you no more in this world, I'll meet you on the next one, don't be late.."
Deciphering the above lines, Jimi Hendrix announces that he has risen up to the peaks of rock and roll with his virtuoso guitar solo's and flamboyant dressing. He talks bout how he was oppressed to the extent that he was kicked out of school for holding the hand of his love, a white girl...(which in those days was a punishable offence). And he finally announces to the world that even though he shall not remain forever, he'll be an evergreen legend (the most featured man on rolling stones and Guitarworld mags).
Which is why I aspire to be a Voodoo Child, to rise up to every challenge, to run any gauntlet and dismiss it like it was never there. To then challenge the odds, to push limits, to exceed expectations, and then strive for more. And finally to be remembered for the contribution I have made to certain parties be it communities, groups or individuals.
And by now, most people would've brushed me off as that trash talking loudmouth in Uni, but I guess its probably the best visage that i could portray. For by lowering my expectations among the public, surprising them becomes so much less of a task. Attending functions by itself sometimes amazes people. The simple joys of life.
Sic Vis Pacem Parebellum.
Also to all you people that lack the sense of humour, who wish to ramble on about the hardships of life and who think that teasing someone just for the fun of it is mean, Get The Fuck Out.
Seriously if it doesn't bother him or me, who the fuck are you to care.. I do apologize for the use of profanities but I hate Pro bono solicitors and advocates who come to the defence of others in the form Spiderman. Back your friend up if you have to. But don't judge a reaction unless you have seen the prior action. Here's a no-brainer for you if you do fall in this category, insert two fingers inside your mouth and spread your lips as wide as possible and say Peter Parker. You'll realise Spiderman actually is a Fetal Fucker. to the pretender's I've spared you guys this time out:)
Natural Justice awaits:)
Have fun with this picture btw...Pure work of art...
