Everybody has a Place: Temitayo Ogunsusi

"Be nice to fat people, they might save your life some day" was the caption under a silhouette  image that caught my attention once. It was a comical piece that I felt was unfair after I took a closer look at the image that inspired the said quote. A grizzly in lethal pursuit of two explorers, I deduced that from the mode of dressing, and the slimmer person was obviously way ahead of our chubby friend. Logical conclusion to that quote is that chubby didn't make it, lots of other possibilities could also be assumed, but the 1st on my mind was he was papa bear snack. His life for the salvation of his colleague or friend as d case may be. Really sad, victim was His designation, probably could have gotten a better fate if things were different but... 

Step on a butterfly today and wipe out an entire generation. I heard the butterfly effect being postulated few years back and I thought of all the innocent cute butterflies I captured as a child, the endless possibilities I have re-charted by my playful disposition.  I tipped the scales and changed the course of history and mankind. According to the butterfly effect or chaos theorem, if a butterfly is killed and it couldn't flap its wings, it would result somehow into the formation of a, how be it deadly, hurricane in the nearest future on another end of the earth, I probably triggered or co-inspired Katrina... What's my point, the tiny life form of a butterfly has its place in the balance of everything else. Edward Lorenz was a smart fella. 

Kids are just so adorable and sometimes they could be such a huge responsibility, asking for commitment and incredible attention when you least expect it, and when the rebellious years come, most parents wish they stayed innocent or really never happened, but the fact remains, decadent or not, every child has a role to play in the Circle of Life.

Aryan a world renowned thief from a Bollywood block buster said to a Cop, Jai Dipchit; If I stop being a thief, you wouldn't have a job, wrong and misguided as that school of thought was, it was true in the end, Jai got bored after Aryan fell off a cliff. 

Wilder beast eats grass, Lion hunts wilder beast, Lion ages and dies, Grass sprouts from Lions remains n the circle starts again. There's a continuous balance based on everything and everyone's place;  if your boss had what you have, he won't be paying you and if women could procreate alone, we wouldn't need men. Circular pegs fit into round holes and Squares in squares, a perfect place for every species and life forms, a place that only has meaning and functions as planned when you are there, find your place and evolve into it. Victim or victor, your choice in the end.

''There is a place for Kings and Queens, an altitude where only eagles can attain,a class of nobles ahead of the crowd''
