..random acts of kindness..

2+3 Juni


It is our fear of the Muslim, fear of the Christian, fear of the Jew, fear of the red man, fear of the white man, fear of the black man, fear of the yellow man, fear of the rich fear of the poor, fear of the Catholic, fear of the Protestant, and fear of death that keeps us bound to the shackles in our minds.

+ Like a thief reason sneaked in and sat amongst the lovers eager to give them advice. They were unwilling to listen, so reason kissed their feet and went on its way.
RUMI



+ The poet makes himself a seer by a long, prodigious, and rational disordering of all the senses. Every form of love, of suffering, of madness; he searches himself, he consumes all the poisons in him, and keeps only their quintessences.
RIMBAUD

The world's most difficult word to translate has been identified as "ilunga" from the Tshiluba language spoken in south-eastern DR Congo. It came top of a list drawn up in consultation with 1,000 linguists.
Ilunga means "a person who is ready to forgive any abuse for the first time, to tolerate it a second time, but never a third time". It seems straightforward enough, but the 1,000 language experts identified it as the hardest word to translate.
In second place was shlimazl which is Yiddish for "a chronically unlucky person".
Third was Naa, used in the Kansai area of Japan to emphasise statements or agree with someone.




I know the answer! The answer lies within the heart of all mankind! The answer is twelve? I think I'm in the wrong building.
