Rene, Once again I am saluting you for your meaningful and sensible response,
God will always be with your kind of character in any forum you happen to be.
Challenging people like this will always bring intellectual discussion than
malicious ones. I know a person like myself will react to such without thinking
by using senseless words.] Mams.

Mams, you speak for me in the main, but I want you to know you do have control over whether you react without thinking by using senseless words. I'll straighten you out. Just hold tight. After this temperature like Wandifaa informs us. I'm like Avogadro. I like constant temperatures.

[I know Haruna will not, BUT Haruiner can sometimes go too far to
discouraging others but on the other hand, we cannot all be the same and
taking Haruiner "sometimes" seriously can give one a sudden heart attack yet
we need to reason with him and love him like his is (unconditionally)
yet consciously putting him through to the concepts of Haruna than fighting
with (Haruiner). I really LOVE Haruna, He is an intelligent person and fun to be with,
mean when he is Haruna, but when he became Haruiner, my God; had to understand] Mams.

Don't friggin analyse me. wait a minute, Ginny used to say "My God". You friggin missionary you. I bet you know exactly where Mariama is too. I just want you to know, no man can keep a good woman down for any appreciable length of time without morphing into the woman. I'm just saying. We're onto yew edetter. That Richard fellow is a listless idiot. I want you to stay away from him Mams. Word to the wise. Unless he provides water for the tree of your hammock. You party animal. Suomi!!!! Haruna. I like Suomi. Really. Got a best friend there. I gotta go. I gotta go.

New consciousness for Africa particularly Gambia is very important good reading
bellow if you like.


The Diamond Light Children : Supporting the New Consciousness 

At this time, this powerful changing of Light Codes and consciousness
is being supported by the arrival of the Diamond Light children on the
Planet. These are the Cosmic Master souls who have been incarnating
on the Ea rth in this year of 2009. As more of them arrive, they are facilitating transformation and change, and mnay of the Crystal Children are "upgrading"
their consciousness so as to be able to enter into the Diamond Light energy
of Full Cosmic Consciousness. Their support is enabling the rest of the
Human Collective to make similar shifts into Cosmic Consciousness and fully
align with the Diamond Light.  

And so, at this time, the Human Collective is living within two simultaneous
realities. The Old Reality with its old energies is disintegrating and falling
away. The old Light Codes and Energy patterns are becoming increasingly worthless as ways of Being on the Planet.

This gives rise to deep anxiety and 
panic in many, and an increasing fear of disasters and catastrophes.
This energy is perhaps necessary as 
a means by which the Collective can express the transformation and
work through the fears and 
anxieties that arise. Many are replaying old survival fears and anxieties
around the endings of Lemuria 
and Atlantis. But, at the same time, the New Dream and the New Earth
are being birthed into the Collective Conscious and into each awakened
Human Angel, so that the New Reality can manifest and take form. Beloved
Ones, each of you has now to choose which Reality you will inhabit,
according to your ability to be conscious and awake and to engage your
Creative energy and work with Spirit. The Diamond Children are here to
welcome you into the New Reality.

Haruna,iv>
         Your commentaries on this short story is very, very, interestin g. For one thing it is a story; and as a story teller, there is a literary device used in story telling called the 'Omnipotent third person narrator', in which the storyteller tries to get into the heads of the characters portrayed and convey their inner thoughts, their feelings, their fears and their desires to the reader. Such inner thoughts, feelings, fears and desires, may not necessarily be true, or subscribe to any ideological dispositions whether right or wrong, but serve a much wider literary purpose of creating conflict which is central to stories of a fictitious genre.   
 
       Secondly, this short story is lifted from a much broader work and has been summarize in its present form to fit the description that has been ascribed to it; and that is a short story. In a more serious literary setting, all the arguments you have raised about the story, would have been implicit rather than stated, and can only be discern from the actions and activities of the characters. You have also discounted a very important literary device, dialogue, which has been used in this short story as irrelevant and unnecessary, just because it doesn't fit into all the complicated postulations and ideological leanings to which you are sympathetic. The Short Story could also have been written in another literary setting in which less prose and more20dialogue is used. In that instant would you still discount the dialogues as unnecessary?
 
     I will not hold you to it, but what you did with my Short Story is to infer motives into it. It is just like picking a book the contents of which you are very familiar with, and because you disagree with some of the assertions in the book started highlighting the areas in which you disagree, and then challenge the author on those assumptions. But the point is, as a literary artist you can cook anything in your head, whether it is true or not; you can raise any arguments in your narrative whether it is ideological or not; but the fact remains that you are doing all these things from the point of view of the characters who are portrayed in the narration. You cannot be held captives to any of the things they say or argued. I guess that is why it is fictitious.
 
     Anyway, it was nice to read you commentaries, and as always I enjoy reading you. You would not believe it, but sometimes you make my day when I read some of your postings and my children would hear me laughing aloud and wonders what has gone over my head.
