Why


I don’t believe in a religion, I don’t believe in a God, I don’t believe in astronomy, I believe in the power of people to change this world. I believe in communication whether that’s physical, verbal and emotional to influence and guide one and other. I believe that by expressing ourselves and our values we can contribute to a positive environment for all people and most of all I believe that a simple smile has the power to change the world.
I believe that we don’t only make footprints on this planet; we make imprints on people’s lives and people’s hearts. Geographical differences aren’t a barrier to fulfilment and whole world inclusivity. I believe we all have an equal part to play on this planet, to be a good person. We should use the beauty in our differences and the power of our similarities to provide a platform where we can all achieve. I believe in humanness and doing all we can to benefit the progression of humanity. My heart belongs to the emotional aspect of allowing every individual the right and the confidence to be themselves, to allow communities to succeed through their own values and their way of life. I believe that we should not impose our opinion to try and disrupt someone’s way of life if it doesn’t sync with our own; yet to respect and try to understand each other’s ‘why’. Why do people believe in certain things, why do people act in certain ways? And why do people live their life the way that they do?
Try to find similarities in reasoning; try to match up values with others even in different thought processes or environments. Try to understand what makes people wake up in the morning, put their shoes on and live another day. If we can’t find similarities, learn to respect our differences. Then consider your ‘Why’, what makes you happy?
Take responsibility for your own potential to make this a world for all people, to make your world as successful as you can imagine; whether that’s in wealth, experience, love or anything that sets your soul on fire. Believe that you can change your world, believe that you can influence others to change their world and consider the possibility that we can change our world all together.

The Jigsaw Puzzle

Learn to sit back and take a look at the bigger picture. The picture is made up of thousands of different pigments, different colours, different thoughts and different meanings. The ‘bigger picture’ is essentially creating a collage of individual and contrasting images that work inclusively to represent something bigger, your world. Essentially life is like a jigsaw puzzle, where each piece represents unique and meaningful factors that interlink and connect to one another in a constant network of emotions that link an individual’s values to their actions in parallel to their reactions. Understanding what is important in your life is imperative in guiding your actions, working as a connecting piece from your internal thoughts to your external responses maintaining a healthy equilibrium.   Your three dimensional being inclusive of your values, actions and reactions contribute to the jigsaw yet are not isolated in its making. If they say life is about the bigger picture than fa...

Faith

Faith is commonly referred to within the religious context, yet faith is defined as ‘complete trust or confidence in someone or something’. Coming from a generation that is experiencing the culture of ‘trust issues’ and increasing individualised insecurities due the increasing pressures of societal norms and standards it seems to be a common trend to lose faith. Similar to all my other posts, this isn’t subjected to the whole of society, yet building on my own experiences and others around me. Wanting to believe in something bigger than you, to me that’s what it’s about. Whether you immerse yourself into a culture, a lifestyle or a religion, understanding that the way you perceive the world isn’t necessarily defined by your past experience yet the mind set and perspective which you chose to view the present world. Think about faith like a pair of glasses, we don’t all need to wear them. Although for some of us our faith is required and practiced at all times and for some of us w...

Marcienne

I found myself when I found these people. I understood what it truly means to be human, to be connected and to love someone purely because of their existence. They’ve allowed me to wake up every single morning and ask myself what’s really important. From a country of complete conflict, hate, discrimination and violence where in the space of 100 days, one million people were violently slaughtered due to their ethnicity, I now see a country functioning on nothing but love, hope and respect for each other with the primary focus of creating a pathway to societal progress which fundamentally functions based on community. Four years ago I was fortunate enough to meet a 90 year old woman named Marcienne, who in 1994 witnessed the slaughter of five of her children and the love of her life. Along with thousands of people still living with the trauma of the genocide today, she has nothing but love to give. Imagine walking into a community to be greeted by groups of people just thankful for ...
