EMASWATI DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE

Font size: Decrease font Enlarge font

Sir,

“The most difficult journey is the journey we never dare to begin,” once said philosopher Tony Robbins. This, according to my understanding, means we most often than not talk and sometimes shout hysterically about endeavours we fail to accomplish merely by assuming they are ‘too difficult’. Nonetheless, the veracity of the matter lies on the fact that the prime thing one can do is to fail after having tried. The bread and butter issue that has made this convergence of my pen and paper is the fact that it is already Christmas time.

Mistakes

Most of the mistakes done in the past will be recurring again for others, more especially those who are afraid of change. The past has a tendency of repeating itself, therefore, as the mistakes reappear, they accumulate into a habit while in the process they make some people to love whiners popularly known for ducking their responsibilities. To exemplify this matter on hand, we have records of people busted for drinking-driving just in the previous year. Trust me with this, the same people will be busted again for the same reason simply because they do not want to change.

Rebuke

Is that not stupidity? I wonder how and why one seats behind the steering wheel knowing exactly well that they had been imbibing alcohol. Let me lambast and rebuke this soul-wrecking act with enormous chastisement; it is wrong and forbidden from every sphere that it may come from. Holidays are meant to be enjoyed by self, reuniting with family members or our beloved ones. Most of all, they are for resting and refreshing from the long tiresome and hectic year, especially this year. What an abhorrent year it was! We deserve far much better. We need to take care of the poor living in our midst, the orphaned and vulnerable children. They all deserve better.

Doing something positive this December will do no harm to anyone. Let’s all implant positivity all around us. Not only do we need to do away with the negative conspiracies and shenanigans, but also we need to enjoy this festive season with more strength and energy. That can only be achieved if everybody is cautious of what they do. The fight against the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic is apparently far from over. So let us all enjoy the holidays bearing in mind that the outbreak is still with us.

Rob

It is indeed a deadly disease; it is here to rob us of our beloved ones as we have seen during the course of the year. We should take all the preventative measures seriously. Enjoyable holidays mean safe, healthy and free from strive days. Let us all do everything that needs to be done to stop the spread of the virus and be responsible citizens of the kingdom.
