I am back in Johannesburg. My mother tells me that she has been reading my blog - I am most impressed with her savvy! She did tell me that she thinks that it is ludicrous that I describe myself as going through a pre-mid life crisis. In her mind a mid life crisis involves running from one's family and not towards it. I am afraid that I do not know the answer. I am a man with a mission - hopefully a mission that is not just filled with good intentions but also some serious follow through. I have written a lot about hope but I do hope that I can make a difference and actually do something worthwhile. For now though I need to be content with hope and putting the pieces in place to ensure that when my time and my opportunities come around, I am ready to act!

What is thing that I am going through in my life now? Is it the awakening of my soul or just an error in judgement? I have no idea what to call this period of my life -perhaps I will label it awakening. I hope this will placate my mum!! I certainly like the imagery.....
