Happy new year, 2007 whats does it hold for us? I had the great fortune in July 2006 to become a grandad, a very happy moment in my life and a chance to get to know this little being that had appeared in my orbit of living. He has reminded me of the love we all have inside, the innocence and the openess, the helplessness and the dependacy.

He was one of millions born last year, all the same in that they are all human beings.

Under the influence and guidance of the fathers, grandfathers, mothers and grandmothers the little infant will soon become a part of the culture of the people they were born into and that innocence and love that they had naturally will become attached and dependent on that culture. There is good in cultures but not in the attachment.

 The great potential of every human being born is lost and diluted within half a generation. Religion and country are instilled as essentials, when in fact with wisdom and non attachnent the child would grow up in a vastly different world.

I am hopeful that more wisdom will become common and “my” little one will stay laughing and remain happy.
