Turbulent? For me self-driven activities hinge on a form of internal discipline but I seem to recall you don't find that word congenial. A secondary meaning is "self control"; many regard this as a threat to their free-spirit but they shouldn't. Rules too are thought to be restrictive but if we formulate them ourselves - honestly - any restriction is our own fault. Having no rules is anarchy (which various writers, painters and composers have espoused) but the problem arises when the work is finished and we ask ourselves whether the goals (were there any?) were achieved. By what criteria? Are criteria restrictive? Perspective, for instance, is one criterion. May it be ignored? If it can be ignored then that surely becomes a rule.

Internal discipline and self-formulated rules. Never felt these as uncongenial, on the contrary, they've ben my lifelong companions. Anarchy's never been my modus vivendi. Maybe you're misinterpreting my mini-memoir,Robbie, but that's okay. You're the only person who comments here once in a while and I appreciate it.

I duplicate my Blogger posts to Facebook because I do get some feedback there and in my more or less hermit life this is very welcome.

Turbulent is not really le mot juste for mouvementé. Eventful has also been suggested. But it's more to do with moving, displacements, changes.

All thanks to a great man who help win back my wife, his name is Dr. OKO. My wife was taken from me by my boss, he fired me so that he can entice my wife with money to take her from me. Off course, his plans worked out because money wasn’t coming to the house and there was starvation and my wife trying to help me gain back my job, went appealing to my boss on my behalf but little did she know that my boss stripped me off my job just to take her from me. My wife being a woman fell on his track after been induce with money, she later packed out of my house and went to him and that was how I knew my boss purposely took my job just to take my wife from me. A friend of mine who got a job through the help of Dr. OKO gave me the doctor’s info. I reached him for help and behold, my wife came back and I got another job which is much better than the formal one. I am sharing this testimony to help relief anyone who may be going through similar condition. Email: okotemple@live.com +234-705-986-8063
