IN this life, dear reader, what you give is what you get – make no mistake.
This is why Blabber always reminds people to treat others the way they would wish to be treated, because chances are very high that what you do to some people, others will do to you.
These thoughts lingered in my mind after hearing about the raging fire that destroyed property at a well-known young man’s workshop.
Given that his name has something to do with God being with us, when the nasty incident occurred at his workplace, just like the Son of Man, he must have cried out ‘Eloi, Eloi lama sabachthani – My God, My God – why have you forsaken me’.
Blabber does not celebrate any kind of misfortune on anyone, including those who hate Yours Truly, but for some reason, will not fail to draw lessons from whatever misfortunes befall our dear comrades in our
beautiful city.
The biggest lesson learnt after this inferno incident is undoubtedly the need to live an honest life, and try by all means necessary to prevent anyone from shedding tears because of your actions.
The boy, who owned, or rather operated, his business at these premises was well known for duping his clients.
Many of those who sought his services in recent years will attest to this fact. When carrying out repairs on his customers’ vehicles, the boy had a very bad habit of stealing some parts to sell to the next client.
Blabber vividly remembers how he tried to do the same to the son of a well-known traditional healer, now deceased. He was unaware that the client was the son of the traditional healer.
He was given an ultimatum to rectify the situation, and after learning of the client’s identity, he complied within a remarkably short period, shorter than the ultimatum that had been issued.
Be that as it may, the crux of the matter is that the way this boy duped his innocent clients is highly likely to be the source of his recent misfortune.
In vernacular, we say some people shed ‘tears of a cat’.
Put simply, this means that there are people whose tears, once they roll down their cheeks, spell doom for the perpetrator.
So much for this habitual con-artist!
What is this that we hear about these two dreadlocked brothers who seem to be making a name out of fornication at a time when others are making money?
All along Blabber thought they are concentrating only on trendy hairstyles for the benefit of their saloon clients, alas, the two playboys are perfecting the art of mutton mongering.
