“All the world’s a stage..."

In "As You Like It", William Shakespeare said: “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts...”

If that line’s anything to go by, then ours has evidently become a ‘drama series’ that God perhaps looks at and laugh - A series that is sometimes action packed, but other times just sheer drama. Sometimes it’s a comedy even in the midst of agony, and other times, especially in February, it is a romantic comedy. Sad but there are others whose roles were horror stricken from the day they were born.

Notwithstanding the urge to play a part in any of these roles, and of course including the thrillers and science fictions, you must endeavour to be a good non-fictional actor.

Let me say a little about the group of actors or players - some are directors of their own scripts, but some cannot make a start without being directed. Some will pretend to be actors, when they're not even attentive audiences. Some will write their own scripts, others will bank on scriptwriters. Some will neither write nor be written for, but will be in opposition to everything that is written by others. Some will choose their own soundtracks, visuals and costumes, whilst others will take whatever they’re given without question. Some will have their scripts edited and others don’t need anyone’s editorial.

Now before I finish, there is this one who I am sure believes he can lead the life without hard work, problems or worries, and perhaps thinking that he's playing the best role there is, but unless he changes his ways, he will one day depart and have his epitaph written as follows: “HERE LIES A MAN WHO THREW AWAY HIS LIFE BY STEALING CAR BATTERIES” ...I mean the dude that stole my car battery lol

You only get one life to live...

I’m sure some of you’ll remember my bashing of those kids who fervently trust that “you only live once” (YOLO), mostly to feed their desire ...
