Pearls of Wisdom

So sometimes you get some pearls of wisdom even from something like the Kumars at no 42. Last night they had Stephen Frey on as one of the guests. At first I was extremely surprised and overwhelmed by the way he speaks. Explaining things in detail and using such colourful and descriptive language. Then he said something very profound...for me at least...

He said: "Human beings are constantly searching for infinite truth, and no matter what it is we have knowledge about, its the passion of how we pursue this infinite truth, that matters. So you can know allot about football, or about physics, but its the passion about either one of them that makes the difference."

I think these are some of the wises words anybody has spoken before. No matter what the subject is that you are passionate about, as long as your passion for the subject forces you to constantly search for the infinite truth about the subject, you are in the winning seat.

So, Rich, even if you passionately follow Hollywood gossip, people will measure you by your dedication and passion for it, and that's what matters!

Almost Home

Its Tuesday night, I have one more night in Durban. Tomorrow night I get home and then on Thursday is jumping time!!!! I am almost home, almost with Lucca and Leche, almost back to have tea with Bruce, almost home to taste that frozen chocolate muffin, almost home to speak to Richard about my insecurities, almost home to see the show with Kate. See you Thursday Cape Town.

Another Friday night

So there I was, after swearing blind that I hate playing the game and going out to play the game, back again on the strip moving from one bar to the next and trying hard to catch at least one persons eye. Well, that didn't happen. Needless to say today I am feeling very tired from getting home after 4am, because they closed the club and told us to leave. Had my haircut to try and feel better about myself, that didn't work. Bruce went on a very extended brunch date ;-) and I went for Lunch with Rich. At least he made me feel better about myself after my dismal evening. We chatted and laughed about "butch" people, and he put me in a better mood. Now we have resorted to watching DVDs (obviously gay ones so we can feel even worse because we are single), and eating ribs from Spur. Nice Saturday afternoon.

The Chelsea Norris Fund Raiser

Well the evening at the Tokai Lions club went down very well. There were quite a few people at the big bash, and entertainment was provided by two great bands. For the select few party till there is nobody left, entertainment was provided by Richard Arthur and the Arthuretts. Thanks for the trip down memory lane with you mouthing, and not knowing all the words, to all the familiar classics.

Saturday night

Its Saturday and already the evening holds a few great options. I have committed to a fund raising party with Richard tonight, and am looking forward to it, but isn't it just so typical of the universe to send you 500 different options of good quality at the same time. Last night I was offered tickets to go and see Chicago tonight, and I had to decline coz I am going to raise funds for a girl going to do Karate in Switzerland.....Don't ask. Then this morning I was asked to go to movies this evening to see the Diving Bell and the Butterfly, which is the first movie in about a month that I really want to see, but I had to decline.

I found a way to make myself feel good about my choices and still do what I want to. I am going to the movies during the day to see the Diving Bell and the Butterfly, and then going to raise funds for little Chelsea Norris.

Celine

I was forced by gun point to watch a Celine Dion concert last night with Richard. It was crap. Rich Celine can never be better than Tina, and Josh NEVER better than Andrea....
