Lock and Key

Ok, its been a few days since I have said anything, but that is because I have been out of touch with humanity for two days. Spend the night at a really nice game reserve near Oudshoorn. Tonight I am staying in a very tranquil place in Swellendam called Bloomestate, in the Earth room. It is here that I had a very intense and defining conversation with my guest from London. We spoke about various issues around the heart but mostly about 'the right person' for all of us. He expressed to me how he was fed up with the community and with finding a partner and it is as if there is nobody for him. Of all the many wisdoms that I imparted on him, the wisest I have to admit came from my friend Darrel. He once told me the story of the lock and the key. In life, you have a lock and you have a key. Sometimes the key does not fit into the lock at all. It doesn't even want to go in. Sometimes the key goes all the way in the lock and you get happy coz you think this is the right one, but then the key doesn't want to turn, so its not the right combination. Sometimes the key struggles to go in or it goes in half way into the lock, so it still not the right combination. Then when you find the right key and the right lock, the key will just glide into the lock and unlock it without any hassle. That's when you know you have the right combination. The problem however arises in the fact that there are hundreds and thousands of locks and even more keys. Finding the right key with the right lock, means you have to try to shove many keys into many locks, until you get the right combination, so keep on trying guys, that right lock is out there.
