Rhino Fridays

By

668 rhinos were poached in South Africa in 2012. The 2013 statistics - 249 already killed.

It is so difficult to protect a wild thing. The growing number of rhinos lost despite a variety of methods implemented by authorities is a case in point. It asks for a multidisciplinary approach. It costs a lot of money. As ordinary people we can make donations and get involved in the work of a number of organisations such as http://www.kariega.co.za/about-us/help-save-our-rhino-project and http://www.savetherhino.org/support_us/donate to name but two. On Fridays we can wear our T-shirts to raise awareness about this very important issue.

Despite the challenges we cannot give up trying. The haunting question remains: once the rhinos are gone, what will be next?

Or deeper still – can the rhinos help us to become aware of and open our hearts to the rest of creation as well? Even to people?

  'n Duisend Hande Die Gesprek Elemente Uit Die Gesprek ~ ❖ ~ "Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative [or creation] there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.  All sorts of things occur to help one that would otherwise never have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man would have believed would have come his way." W.H. Murray, Skotse ontdekkingsreisiger ~ ❖ ~ Cause of Death Uitstalling Ariana in vervoering  Musiek Wanneer jy dinge nie so krampagtig probeer beheer nie, jou oorgee aan die vloei van gebeure en oop is vir die onverwagte, kan jy saam met Ian McKellen sing. Ian McKellen gee nie om saam met wie hy sing nie, solank hy dit net kan doen.
