What an amazing world man has created! Technology,
planes, cuisines, |
buildings, medicine, art, education, luxuries,
religion, clothes, books, |
languages, travel, entertainment, a social system.
Everything is man-made. |
We marvel at Planet Earth - but if it weren’t for the
genius of man – our |
planet would be a beautiful, but isolated wilderness…
|
|
I’ve always worked extremely hard for what I have
achieved. There were no |
lotteries, no manna from the heavens. Just
slog... |
|
There are no two people meant
specifically for each other in the world. |
You have to find someone you’re
comfortable with, who you respect – |
then try and make the relationship
work. If it doesn’t – it’s alright – |
love is an investment of time and
no matter how wrong it turns out - it |
adds to your emotional maturity.
|
|
Everyone cries – some just know how to hide their tears… |
|
A lesson I’ve learned is never
confide your deepest secrets in any |
one person. You may think you are
unburdening yourself, but you’re |
actually burdening yourself with
the fear that the same person might |
betray your confidence! You become
vulnerable. |
Learn to keep things to yourself.
Or write a diary... |
|
Each
one of us has insecurities and fears. These are rooted in our
|
subconscious. I believe that what we go through from the age of 1-15
|
shapes
us irrevocably for the future. That’s when the fears, complexes
|
and
self-esteem is formed - and it just plays out for the rest of our
lives. |
|
I’ve often been
asked which guests impressed me most in my |
Rendezvous
series. They were all great achievers, gifted and |
famous – but the
ones who remained with me the longest are |
the ones who had
grace. It’s based not on the numbers in your |
bank account –
but on the conduct of your life. To make it through |
success and still
have manners, intellectual curiosity, humility, |
dignity – very
rare.... |
|
I
find people are stern judges of other people… but lenient of
|
themselves. |
|
Remember it’s only the generation
you live amongst for whom you |
count. They will celebrate you…and
mourn you. The past and the |
future feel no emotions for you.
|
There are millions forgotten in
their graves... |
