Repair (Heal) Your World

I said when the EFF and DA walked out of parliament that this is what happened in 1928 and people laughed at me. The DA walking out of parliament is probably the biggest mistake they ever made! That particular sitting was a Joint Sitting of Parliament for a Ceremonial Occassion. It didn't matter what the President was going to say or not say. The Status of Parliament was and is at stake. The following article was written by Jeremy Cronin and appeared in The New Age. We must be very careful that we learn from history and don't allow it to repeat. Here is the article: Legislative disruptions: From the Nazis to the EFF - Jeremy Cronin 20 February 2015 SACP 1st DGS says the inclination to collaborate with hooliganism by the DA and much of the mainstream media is of particular concern Red Alert BID TO Paralyse Parliament: No different to Adolf Hitler's Nazi Party in the Reichstag, and just look how all that ended up What is going on in South Africa's Parliament? Let me begin...

The following question came up on Facebook today: "We live in chaos everyday of our lives. Confronted and having to deal with social and political issues festering, making us as a people sick. The puppies non confrontational and innocent. Not difficult to understand why they get more likes. I am aware of fracking, also aware of rape, murder, load shedding and SONA and yes the beggar on the corner. Which flag to hold up? Where to give and how much to take." And here is my answer: Its easy. Decide that you want to retire asap. Then make your own electricity, find your own water, work with your neighbours and friends on food and clothing, pay off your house and car, dramatically reduce your cost of living, and then you are retired. And at the same time as this, you have done your bit for the environment and unpolluted your mind. Do one small thing each day towards this vision. It is my vision and it is working for me. My wife and I implemented it in 1999...

Mr Richard Branson https://www.facebook.com/VirginMobileSA?fref=ts Virgin Group of Companies. Somewhere in the Milky Way Galaxy. Dear Mr Branson There is a block of flats up the road. We receive the mail for a Virgin Mobile client who lives in this block of flats. I won't use real names, but the address says: VirginBlockOfFlats 14 Virgin Street. We live in Virgin (not real name) Street. We get the mail for VirginBlockOfFlats (not real name) 14 because the post man (post person?) sees 14 Virgin Street instead of 14 VirginBlockOfFlats, even though the post man can plainly see that we don't have a block of flats at 14 Virgin Street, and even though we have asked him to deliver the owner at 14 VirginBlockOfFlats mail to her, but maybe we have a new post man. We have asked the person living at 14 VirginBlockOfFlats to get this fixed. We have had this problem repeatedly with various accounts during the 19 years we have been "almost neighbours", but with V...

President Zuma blames Apartheid and says that Land Seizures are now required. Farmers can have maximum 12,000 hectare farms or two farms. My comments ... Blame is one of our oldest emotions and it starts with anger, jealously and coverting another person's stuff. The Old Testament has a law against it, "thy shalt not covet". In Buddhism, Anger and Jealousy are considered to be Mind Poisons. And in my opinion, depression generally, is caused by one person feeling less than another person. The word blame appears in google 207 million times. Jealously 39 million times. Jealous 117 million. Anger 172 million times. Angry 440 million times. History has shown that land (asset) seizures are always a requirement when a government has failed its people! It chooses one or more scapegoats and blames them for all its ills, whilst telling the rest of its people that it is right and that they MUST continue voting for the government to get their rights. This is often done by ...

Referring to this article: http://www.theguardian.com/cities/2014/apr/30/cape-town-apartheid-ended-still-paradise-few-south-africa?CMP=share_btn_fb Just looking at the past 20 years. I don't get it. I have so many neighbours who are not white. I work with so many people who are not white. Many of my closest friends are not white. There are whites living in townships. There are poor whites. This story doesn't sound any different to most other big cities around the world. Not that it makes it any better; it's just as bad. We just need perspective and perhaps The Guardian has forgotten about the elite in the UK and how it also (unfortunately) manipulates the system. I do know is that many of these disadvantaged people now get many advantages that I am happy to pay towards, even though I myself am not entitled to them, except for the fact that about half of my payment is going to the new elite, the regime. And I know many people who have positively used the ed...

Dear all I pray that everyone has the most incredible Festive Season and New Year 2015. I made a new year resolution this year "to find the good in everything that happens". Sometimes, e.g. when people have died, or when I've made a mistake, it isn't easy to do this (and one needs to meditate on it for days or weeks or months), but it has completely changed my life. I intend starting 2015 with the same resolution. In the meantime, just a reminder about the Tequila Christmas Cake. Enjoy. Love, David ---- Just a reminder Tequila Christmas Cake Ingredients: 1 cup of water 1 tsp baking soda 1 cup of sugar 1 tsp salt 1 cup of brown sugar Lemon juice 4 large eggs Nuts 1 bottle tequila 2 cups of dried fruit Sample the tequila to check quality. Take a large bowl, check the tequila again. To be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink. Repeat. Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add one tea...

Dear all Many people have disbelieved my writings over the past few years. Well here's one of the word's biggest energy companies,  Alstom , saying the same thing! http://microgridknowledge.com/a-constellation-of-microgrids/ I've been writing about Embedded Micro-grids for some time and renamed my company My Power Station a few years ago. Here is an example of a recent article that appeared in our local Cape Times newspaper in Cape Town:  http://mypowerstation-sa.blogspot.com/2014/12/delivery-of-power-solution-needed-but.html Regards David
