lari

The newest thought today!

I really wis h in all the 26 years of my life, those really closest to me shouldv’e told me what a “Terrible liar I am.” On the real!

No but really i am, a terrible liar.  Its like even the words “Terrible Liar” make me think of a sitcom on the telly. Its a classic case, when someone gets bust doing something really stupid and they get caught out and when they do, its just the most hilarious seeing thing see.  Well that’s me!

Events leading up to this um…realisation, lets just say the ANC victory party celebrations, meet Slum Village can really make a person go Crazy!!!

Now i know. The most valuable lesson learnt.  The stupid look I must be wearing on my face whenever facing a situation whereby the space between a truth and a lie is compromise and yet what would really be the easy way out would be to just tell the truth, is really not worth it!

Its almost like one would (if continuing to be compromised) would continue to loss so much more when in conflict with oneself and just not being able to stand up with the truth man!

Isn’t it bizaare that all the drugs and alcohol, non alcoholic that amongst us we use as nemesis we can talk about, share openly out in public in a friendly welcoming way, all drugs we talk about except the cocaine, as some say ye yo.

My contact and experience with it. One could consider me to be one of those - ke rata dilo or more like dilo di rata nna! Meaning that yes I’ve experimented with exacstacy after having found a great liking to alcohol and cigarret, oh ya, lets not forget the greens, the greens, i love the greens man.  Half the time its the only thing thats really kept me sane, so yes I’m a Potter!

Cocaine has over the past few years really made an appearance in my social circle and has clearly made its presence felt. I”ll fast forward to one nite after 2 lines of who knows what up my nose, i felt the dying upon me. Couldn’t breathe, Couldn’t calm my heart down.  That was a clear enough sign.  Since then my feelings about it is that i dont like it.
Dont a firm word, I just dont see the point of it and yet EVERYBODY and their MAMA is all up in there doing it! On the real EVERYBODY! Thats what really surprises me.  Walking into a living room, bathroom, club, car, anywhere, finding people cutting lines nje like it aint no thing!

So here’s the thing right.  I’m a blunter, like i really enjoy the pleasures of having my own stash available to me when it best suites me and or present company.  So I’ll will blunt when i want to which is generally indoors somewhere…is it not somehow the on the same level as just taking cocaine just nje?

Like if I find the social habits of a cocaine taker offensive whose to say that the next person, who could very well be the very same cocaine shnufffer, whose to say they wouldn’t find the my herb smoking habits to offensive, Nah Mean?

So where do you draw the Line?

Just had a lovely experience. New Life. A wonderful friend of mine came to visit with the new addition to her life.  Its unbelievable really. I’d hate to go into details about this little one’s amusement antics as i think its rare and really special moments shared between mom and little one’s. But its amazing.

The gift of life love and little ones!

Tis only for the brave i still say.  Funny. A couple of years ago i was seeing someone who really made feel totally broody around him. Maybe it was the long distance thing so subconsciously i might have been looking for something to have that would always make me feel close to him. (HOW LAST CENTURY!)

Its 09 now and my current love AINT HAVING NON OF THAT of that so thank heavens that isht didn’t go down. A total bummer that would have been. From what i’ve seen, when you’re ready, its even better. Motherhood i mean. When as a women, you feel ready, you are in love with someone who too is ready, its possible that it leaves out a lot of drama, like “oh hell no bitch, that aint mine!”

I salute.  All women who take on motherhood and do it gracefully so, this one is to you!!!!

hello everyone…eish kana this aint no email ne! anyhoo, figure letloheobala.  le interested hotla mo Cypher ho tlo bua ka di issues tse re affecting roan youth on the daily.

its interesting.  Cypher is really going for the non expert opinion on matters that affect us.  Often when theres any show, any youth show theres some old guy, some white old guy, some professor or minister who’ll only ever talk about that topic from an expert opinion.  hence the topic itself or the issue itself is never dealt with in a different light cause its always the same discussion with the same people…see where i’m going.  anyhoo, anyone who’s interested, the platform has been created…STEP INTO THE CYPHER IF YOU DARE!

so what see you?  anyone wanna come to Cypher street cnr Reason and Doubt and talk about Vat ‘n Sit?

Fken dope it is!!!  i shall encourage all to go see this film!  Jet Lee man.  He actually lives up to what it is to be a fkn dope ass kick ass martial artist!  he actually is at the point where he can be called and known as “The Master” of martial arts.  he’s just phenomenal.  he’s skill is portrayed as one who has been taught and is now ready to teach and to part skills upon the next generation.  dont get wrong, in the film, he is constant fights, his to be never beaten, is to never lose a fight.  you’d think, why the hell would Jet Lee ever lose a fight, but yo man, his fights are hard core, like proper mchana, fights, against the oddest of circumstances, yet, because he is the master and the fearless one, he kicks ass!

9th of March should certainly go down as one of those days.  Where a lot happens and everything happens.  Force and energy certainly required.  26 episodes/topics locked down.  Compelling topics, pertinent issues we’ve tried to balance.  Lightheartedness.  The underlying tones of what is it thats really being disucussed.  Not shying away from all discourse that direclty affects (think we have moved beyond the indirectly approach.) Thats where we are!  Pressure is somewhat mounting, yes lari has a day job and so does everyone else is.  Everyone has something to wake up to, to engage in and be the part of!

ok so i wont go on about how some days are harder than others, how some days require more than you can actually give, physically and or otherwise!  but its certainly headed there.  13episodes, or rather topics have been locked down.  some of you might be contacted as potential guests on the show…

but its going good. 

remember last year sometime i embarked on a project, involving the writing of a book, 376 pages long, hard cover, thick font, no full stops, no commas, the only full stop would be right at the end, called people are just people are just people are just people, well the book is done! ok i do still have some spell checking to do, but the pages are written and filled, done. anyone know of any dodgy publishers, ok maybe not dodgy, but publishers willing to take risks in the content they publish, who would certainly be willing to look at this manuscript of mine?
it certainly was painstaking, writing this book. in all, think it took me about 6months to get it done. every word was typed, but because we are writers, who write, every word was written. the philosophy behind it kept getting stronger everytime i wrote. everytime someone did something to me, it was like therapy to realise that, besides it not being personal or taking it personally, people do things, say things to others that might be hurtful, disrespectful, not aligned to others way of thinking or living, or whatever, simply because they are just people. sometimes we forget that interactions are just that. people.

so had a topic/s workshop today, went well! lots must be achieved from this show, thats for sure!  met up with our set designer dude Johann, besides his look he definately feels what we doing.  gets it.  its amazing the effect!

Word!
