Wow what is the world coming to when another Christian Holiday has been turned into a marketing money spinner , All souls was the day Christians remembered all those who went before us .........
Now its Jacko lanterns and kids running round the streets
asking for sweets ,
Where do all those old traditions go to die to be replaced by some new shiny money making idea for the likes of Cardies ?
Do any of the Gen X's or Gen Y's care ?
Am I just an oddity ?
Well this has been my second rant to the world , next time I promise my proposed travels will be my main topic ...
Time to think , Time to review ,Time to dream , Time to take the next step forward

Sore shoulders .
Today is just seemingly another day in the so called life of ...........
As I sit here trying to work out what to type, my mind goes to my stiff shoulders , which they shouldn't be but they are , I sit and bemuse the position I've put my self in ,
I wonder do all other the seemingly directionless youth feel the same way ??
So with no paper behind my name , aspirations of greatness and no idea of how to get where I want to be?
I ask two questions ; was it seemingly easier for our parents generations ? where one can find the moral compass of life ?
Lastly
why does mental baggage have such a physical strain on our bodies ?
hoping it'll rain again ....

The first thoughts
Ever watched someone doing something on tv , or looked at someones photos , and thought
'I wish I was there ! '. How many of you have chased that wish ?
For me today is one of those I really wish days .
I wish I had enough cash to fly to South America and start travelling and living my way around the continent , Then driving the whole way from the furthest southern point of South America ( Ushuaia) to the furthest Northerly point ( Prudhoe bay ) Including driving across the Darien Gap !
And documenting the trip as I go in way to show both the beauty and the reality of the Americas .
So today I decided that by the 1 Jan 2011 I must be either on my way or there already .
In this blog I'll document my planning and search for sponsors for the trip .
If so many different people can do great things and write about it why not me .
So long for now from a hot Jozie
