“I have only one burning desire. Let me stand next to your fire.”

Jimi HendriX

Page 5: DUNDA - culture craft

We gather ’round. We feel the warmth.

Our world illuminated. We feel safe. We belong.

How amazing it all is. Fire.

Yours to Mine. Mine to Yours.

We stare. We wonder. We burn with questions. Endless questions.

The beings we are today were forged in its flames. Eternal flames.

So much depends on it. So much turns on it. What a miracle we are in.

But Fire is selfish. Fire requires sacrifice.

Wood perish keeping the flame alive.

It is ferocious. It is volatile. It is violent. It destroys.

It needs to be controlled. It needs to be observed.

It needs to be catered for.

When sacrifices are down it loses its form. Fire burns out and dies.

As it die, conversations die and the community within dies too.

We eventually die.

Here I am asking you, “Let’s Keep On Living”

Keeping the flame burning

.Each to Each Other.

Jimi HendriX

FOR THE LOVE OF (GREAT) DINNER

..makes you wanna cry!

Patience is a virtue of great men.It is a virtue that’s immensely employed when it comes to peeling out layer after layer of that irritating, nerve tingling onion skin. A key lesson in the art of preparing great meals and it is a closely guarded secret to all master-chefs in this fast-moving,

multi-tasting, confusing world.

Remember,the virtue of patience is the hardest to master even for the most talented and smartest individuals. It often emerges out of indi-vidual experiences, hardly taught theoretically and understood. To be a great cook you have to do a hell lot of cooking and

bravely weather onion cries.

There are times when loving what we do isn’t enough to keep us going....so, when that defining moment comes calling...

Love is a feeling. ..a feeling that lives in me through you...

I’m now swearing before God and man, guaranteeing to be there forever, irrespective of the feeling.. even though it was the one that got me to this point. Is that realistic? Can a feeling be commanded by the swing of a brain wave? Can I?...

I vow never again to ‘accept’(not acknowledge) a feeling like the one you gave me since we met (which convinces me to bring you this ring) from anyone else other than you, no matter what! Can knowledge of a contract succed to block a feeling to flow? Can I?...

Love is a feeling.

I break your moral code. I invade your moral radar and choke you at your own moral backyard. I provoke your comfortable silence and command irate conversation aggressively and its about me and what I represent.

“Look at those old people..They have lived their long boring old lives for soo long but still they want us to continue living it for them too! Continue their mistakes, their failed attempts, their anger, revenges, their fears and recklessness, their medieval ideas... Still not satisfied with their long experiences but they want to own and direct ours too! They want us to prolong their lives in our bodies when they have exhausted theirs doing what they really wanted to!!!! Its all about them! Even when they say its for us, its not....Its still about them!!! Damn it! We know what we want and, WE WANT WHAT WE WANT! It’s our right! Ooooours!”

WISDOM BE DAMNED!!

THE WORLD’S BIGGEST BRAND IN THE SERVICE INDUSTRY?

IN THE BUSINESS OF TRADING HOPE?FEAR

Page 21: DUNDA - culture craft

Would religion have the same effect on people if there were no almost-

certain promises of eternal hell in to it... Could it be trading just on pure ‘good

news’ package it has or good news are convicingly good as long as there are

bad news to compare with?

If you say you are trading/crusading hope, isn‘t it automatically that you are

also trading/crusading fear..because in trading/crusading hope you also

supply free-of-charge fear attachment into it for those who opt otherwise?
