First time
Next Monday is a public holiday to mark the third anniversary of the passing away of Grand Chief Sir Michael Somare on Feb 26, 2021. First time for Feb 26 to fall on a Monday too.
No trust
Does not augur well in terms of trust and confidence in one’s leadership qualities when today one vehemently denies in public crossing the floor then tomorrow one crosses the floor.
Floor crossing
As we watch the cross-the-floor drama in the House, we are reminded of what someone said: “Neither law nor party loyalty will elevate society.”
Stay humble
No matter how big your house is, how new your car is, or how big your bank account is, our graves will always be the same size. Stay humble, folks.
Over 25
Wife reminded hubby about Valentine’s Day last week, and received a text from him saying: “Dear, the Day is only for those 25 and under. You wait for International Women’s Day.” That’s rude!
Food for thought
A wise man once said: Hate has four letters, so does Love; Enemies has seven letters, so does Friends; Lying has five letters, so does Truth; Cry has three letters, so does Joy; Negativity has 10 letters, so does Positivity. Life is two-sided. So choose the better side of it.
