The Government Misconception

"I think we have gone through a period when too many children and people have been given to understand "I have a problem, it is the Government's job to cope with it!" or "I have a problem, I will go and get a grant to cope with it!" "I am homeless, the Government must house me!" and so they are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing! There are individual men and women and there are families and no government can do anything except through people and people look to themselves first. It is our duty to look after ourselves and then also to help look after our neighbour and life is a reciprocal business and people have got the entitlements too much in mind without the obligations."


-Margaret Thatcher
September 1987.




True.


The government does not exist to serve you, to feed you, to house you.
You yourself are responsible for your well-being.
Understand this before you cast your ballot in the next General Election.

FRIENDS

"Good friends are really hard to find
They gotta be there for you, even when you're wrong.
But at the same time, they cant just tell you what you wanna hear.
They've also gotta be willing to tell you what you need to hear."

Here I have the quote from a newfound favorite tv show of mine - Happy Endings
Really hilarious tv show! Just like the timeless Friends. =D

tribute to the King

"In our darkest hour
in my deepest despair

will you still care?

will you be there?

in my trials

and my tribulations

through our doubts

and frustrations

in my violence

in my turbulence
through my fear

and my confessions

in my anguish and my pains

through my joy and my sorrow

in the promise of another tomorrow


I'll never let you part

for you're always in my heart"



in loving memory of
Michael Joseph Jackson

King of Pop
1958-2009



R.I.P
you will be remembered
always


*i'm not a huge fan of the King of Pop
but it seemed necessary to give a tribute to such an iconic man and musician
he has left a great impact on many - if not all - of us
though he may be peculiar
and dress in ways we dare not
but you cant deny his compassion
and how much he has done to "make this world a better place"

we should learn a thing or two from him
probably not the dressing, though



watch the clip from MJ's memorial
Jennifer Hudson performed one of my fav MJ songs, "Will You Be There" (Hold Me)
dammit
i got goosebumps after watching this vid

the lion and the lamb

"and so the lion fell in love with the lamb"


if you are currently living in the 21st century, you would know where this quote was picked from
to those who don't, the quote above was taken from the movie twilight

a story about a forbidden love between a human schoolgirl and an immortal vampire
the lion is of course referring to edward cullen, vampire extraordinaire
and the lamb is the klutzy magnet-for-all-things-bad human, isabella swan


the hunter


the prey


i know what the quote means, its another way of saying that the hunter fell in love with the hunted

but really, why "lambs"??

there can't be anything wrong with lions seeing how lions are supposedly the king of the jungle, hunter numero uno

so, it must be the lambs.

i don't have a problem with this, really, i'm sincerely being curious.

are there any lambs out there in Africa that we do not know of?
i mean, i haven't seen a sheepskin rug with a tag saying "made in Africa"
there must be a better reason to it other than "it sounds nice"

let's try amending this somewhat misleading quote by replacing lambs with other furry little mammals at the bottom of the food chain, preferably with its natural habitat somewhere in Africa, where lions are native

hmm,
how about "and so the lion fell in love with the deer"?
pfft, boring

"and so the lion fell in love with the wildebeast"?
not too catchy, i'd say

"and so the lion fell in love with the zebra"?
reminds me of Madagascar

"and so the lion fell in love with the hippopatamus"?
now THAT would be interesting to see

well, i'm out of animals
but seriously, think about it, lambs?

till next time.


*edited
will you look at that
the lion DID fall for the zebra
