ON THE ROAD TO SEYCHELLES

FEELINGS THAT COMES WITH ENCOUNTER OF PEOPLE

Sitting along the road to Seychelles, I could witness all sort of events and passer by's. This road has become one of the important roads of history. All manner of people do pass by without recognizing the high caliber of people they are.
Some come wearing shorts, snickers and hats, whiles others come with Sarine leading. I could shout and wave the dignitary passing.

ENCOURAGEMENT.
Every event leaves me with a different feeling. Some do leaves me with encouragement. Encouragement in the sense that, when I see some high level of people and their way of life, I say to my self, I have to work hard so I leave the kind of life I want and need.

STARS WALKING
There could not be a single day, that I don't come across a star, being an actor, musician, presenter,disc joker, director or a comedian. Winners of contests are always patronizing this street. This is an incredible street where things do happen.

MAJESTIC RIDING
Often you could hear people singing glorious songs passing, so when I try to peep, I could see Chiefs riding in their palanquin whiles their people sings. They joy in them for the installation of a new chief says it all. What I do is to join and sing and cheer this new great Chief and wave as they pass.

BIKE DISPLAYS
There could be times when, there will be bunch of bikers riding. Not just riding but they will all be in black attires of their choice. This signifies that, they have lost a member.When this happens, the bikers could make all kinds of styles with their motor bikers. Raising the steer of the biker whiles riding is one of the common styles among them. when I see this, it will all be claps.

Once again, the art of gifting is unleashed. This brings notice to the mined that at least someone cares.

Sitting by the side of the fire

Our towns and villages have some talents within the society. There is special skill know for a particular place. Talk about weavers, carvers, potters, carpenters and others. Basket weaving towns are all over.

Talk about food, tasty food from home, which usually is health too. This keeps our elders strong and healthy for example Kontomire Abomu ne Apem ampesie, along side Koobi.


All these being cooked from the fire from the firewood leaves old memories in our minds. The pot contains hot herbal medicine that fight against diseases. usually taken early morning and very hot.

Sitting by the fire was always a memorable one. Stories told and music sung. The tune of the drums was always heard. The sound that always put you ahead on the dancing floor. The flow of the dance matches the tune accurately.

When a person is born, then he is raised through the culture of his people. The society also contribute a lot when it comes to culture. The activities of the society help shape one's life. For example Children in my society knows that, there is story telling time during every Saturdays at 7. The story telling is normally done by an elder in the community. As children assembles by the fire side, there is drumming and dancing and songs are used to intersect during the story telling.

Obedient. As the Good book tells as to obey our parents, so are we taught to obey not only our parents but the elderly, because blessing comes with obedience.

Respect. We are taught to respect others and most especially ourselves, since if you have respect for your self, there is no way, you will disrespect others. That brings to mind, the great respect we have for our Kings and Queens. That have kept our kingdom growing.

Peaceful. We are taught to always be peaceful, because there is a saying that, soup taste good, which simply means, if you don't take good care of your self and you find your self in trouble, then it is your own. This has stick in our minds and we always stay peaceful.
