A maturity that’s self-evident and which evidently
needs neither embellishment, qualification nor
explanation; for to do any of these obvious
things would be similarly as superfluous
as questioning why one breathes, it’s so
apparent! But which in itself is quite
pleasant, most reassuring and with
a trustingly dependable demeanour that readily
transports even the most mindless requester
of your reliable assistance into a visible
receiver and apt beneficiary of your
wide-ranging wisdom and astute
supervision. And collectively
constitute a mere fraction
of a diversity of apposite
justifications why you
are such a huge asset
not only to Horsham

Author’s Remarks
There’s a sick, narcissistic, hubristic and even an
obsessively depraved tendency in Britain and which is deeply ingrained in
significant sections of its population – who when objectively scrutinized are
very much analogous to the proverbial sayings of the pot calling the kettle
black or people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones – who have no
compunction whatsoever in wading into the affairs of people who personally or
in terms of their actual personalities these brainless and unthinking nerdish
critics haven’t the foggiest idea about but because those whom they
obsequiously and unquestioningly follow in their own brain-dead state of
affairs that they blissfully and ignorantly live in, stipulate that this is the
point of view they must follow, in toadying and asinine fashion they
instinctively do as they’re told.
I see things entirely differently, and from my childhood
have been told and inspired not to be fearful of anyone, to honestly speak my
mind at all times, regardless of who gets offended by my doing so or how
powerful or influential that person might think that he or she is or as it may
even turn out to be actually is. That I should always back such criticisms up
by supportable facts and never resort to misinformation or fabrication in
anything I say or do; but should I later discover I was wrong in making an
assertion about anything however minor it is, I should be man enough to freely
admit, and of my own personal accord, what I’ve done and unreservedly apologize
for my mistake.
Similarly that just as I’m entitled to criticize when I
genuinely feel that such criticism is appropriate, I should equally and
un-enforcedly give praise whenever, wherever and to whomsoever it’s rightfully
due; and the latter situation is what I’m doing now.
These are some of the many and unquestionably fundamental
aspects that have beneficially and constructively shaped my life; that I live
by; try whenever I can to instil in others by my personal example; and will
happily and unconcernedly die for if necessary!
