Inspired by Intelligentsiya I am joining in Fiji's fight to retain our freedoms of choice in life - before we know it our freedoms will be taken away and what we take for being normal is really not. We must guard against this at all times and fight to retain what can never be suppressed! A government that knowingly and deliberately violates people’s rights loses the moral authority to demand obedience.

Get Real ! Hard times are coming ! A VOSA NI VAKASALA TAUMADA - NI LEQA E VUQA SA TU OQO E MATADA !
It astounds me still how much money my neighbours, friends and itokatoka are wasting on trivial things. It astounds me how people are still wasting their precious pennies on instant gratification. Meals eaten out , yaqona & liquor consumed at such unnecessary expense . It astounds me to see in town every day , parents and grandparents continuing to "give in" to little tantrums from the children about wanting to have lollies or coke. Oilei what happened to good old fashioned discipline!
It astounds me how people continue to waste money catching taxis and mini-buses to go a few miles to the shop for something they should have planned better for or for trivial excursions. It astounds me how our Talatala at our church seems uninterested in helping his flock come to terms with the practical everyday things we need to do to help ourselves. The last couple of Sundays we have had to sit there and listen to him and other visiting Talatala's drone on grog-doped (NOT a good look) about things that do not relate to us in our daily lives. In fact I fell off to sleep quite a few times! In fact (confession time) - I have been doing that a lot lately at church. Na watiqu reckons I am stressed (yes of course) but I think it shows how UNRELATED our church leaders and others like them are becoming to normal everyday people . They need to get real!
I have been following with interest what Kuini and her band of workers are facing. My heart goes out to them and their families as we stand at a crossroads in the lives of our families and in the life of our Fiji .
We need to get real people, and GET REAL. We need to start tightening our belts and as my makabuna's say, "get with the programme" for being pro-active. I opened my Bible last night hoping for some inspiration . My apologies to my English speaking readers but I must get this off my chest. Lets start tightening our belts folks and get vocal about it to our families and loved ones . We need to lay down the law about this. Like our Doctors and Nurses, we too have to provide for and look after our dearest and nearest before we can venture out and look after others. And fight the fight that needs to be fought for our rights and our liberties in the years to come.
Meanwhile the illegal government wannabe ministers carry on WASTING our hardearned taxpayers money carrying out this audit , that audit (example here) , this investigation , that interrogation - spending thousands of man hours on witch hunts and pure VEIQATI . And 7 months down the track - one prosecution of a policeman . Heeellooooo ! To paraphrase Mr Bean-ni-marama on Janet's interview : "uhmm what else have we done - aaahh ummm." Io , oilei . I rest my case.
Save your money - hard times are coming !
A VOSA NI VAKASALA TAUMADA - NI LEQA E VUQA SA TU OQO E MATADA ! !
(Jeremaia 6:16 ) Sa kaya vakaoqo na Kalou ko Jiova:
"Dou tu ena sala ka vakararai,
ka taroga na i lakolako makawa,
se sa evei na sala e vinaka?
Ia dou lako tiko ga kina, dou na kunea kina na vakacegu ni yalomudou."
A ra sa kaya na luve-i -Penijamini - "Keimami na SEGA ni via lako kina."
( The Lord said to his people, "Stand at the crossroads and look.. Ask for the ancient paths, and where the best road is. Walk on it, and you will live in peace."But they said,"No we will not!" )
