Why be invisible? Start writing.


Prof Jordan Peterson

How dare I write on such a subject? There are more people better qualified to do this than I – or are there? I don’t think so – because if some else writes this, then it is not me that did it and it will be that other person’s voice and definitely not mine. So, I have to write this – and I am sure that Prof. Dr. Jordan Petersen [click on this link] will whole heartedly agree with me. He might not agree with me about the contents, but he will sure agree with me that it was imperative for me to have done it and not somebody else. Not even Jordan. Not so?


My short video of the Tugela River, Kwa Zula Natal
Northern Drakensberg, South Africa

And so it hits at my photography as well. Look at my short video of the Tugela River in Kwa-Zula Natal Northern Drakensberg that I took the other day. That is a scene not to be seen again because the river "flowed away" so to speak. And the clouds are no longer there. Enjoy it. 

Looking at my statistics I am satisfied that I have reached some people across the world – people that I could not reach in person. What is more they have read my blog write ups and probably gave it a thought. I recall a specific law professor of mine, was heavily criticised by the South African Supreme Court of Appeal for an article that he published in an esteemed law journal. I visited my professor in chambers and discussed this criticism – and I asked him how does he feel about such a stringent critique? Since then, his reply is somewhat of a guideline for me writing articles and even writing up this blog. He told me: “Neels, the wonderful thing about this is that there were a number of highly successful senior advocates and attorneys and a fair number of judges who read my article, thought about it and had to make up their minds about what to say about it. Isn’t that worthwhile?”

I do agree with my law professor. And Prof Jordan Peterson is also spot on.

Look what does my Statistics have to say about my blog as of 10 February 2020:

There was even someone in East Timor [here's a link to that far off country [here's is a link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Timor] that had a look. I want to thank that person in East Timor and Russia and Portugal who had a look at my blog. Well, I ask you also to look at my gallery of photographs. I love photography. I hope that you enjoy my images.

I just learnt that Prof Jordan is in Russia for medical treatment. I pray that he will recover and that he and his family will be happily reunited while they support him to recover fully. To read about it and to listen to his very courageous daughter on YouTube click here.

May God bless you and heal Jordan Peterson completely.
