Table for one...this is Machs Cafe
This is the humblest of beginnings. It is not
when things are going easy that ones character
serves to shine, but when fate tosses in the
ocean of life adversity unforeseen, it is only
then that one must remember the spirit of those
who have endured the onslaughts of tempests
before that this is where the opportunity should
not
be lost. To remember and recall.
Lest we cajole ourselves in our most
private moments that such testaments to the
human spirit wash up like flotsam and jetsam
while we bask in the security of our private
islands.
This blog will serve as a visual guidepost
and watermarker for my journeying on the web.
Indeed, many think of journeying via
perambulation, vis a vis a flight plan, a train laid on tracks
with a fixed route or setting sail on an ocean
of currents.
Yet the most intuitive association with the word
that is first and foremost on most peoples minds
need not delineate others or discriminate them to
be assigned a lesser value.
I invite all of the world to read this blog and
feel free to comment on the
messageboard as we daily encounter our
trials and tribulations in life and may this
blog serve to inspire you in your daily life
to handle adverseness with aplomb, sang froid,
tact and courtesy despite any short term
circumstance that advances anothers gain.
The message board at Machs Cafe will serve to
advance the cause for free association
of peoples from everywhere free of prejudice
and discrimination.
It will only limited to the the creativity
and the imaginations of those who are interested
in making contributions.
With that said
Attacks on the human spirit will not be tolerated
at the Machs Cafe message board and I hope
this will serve as an extension of the world
not just to make the world a better place online
in a virtual environment, but to produce real
world changes with cause effects that take place
where it counts and is felt: long after the
warmth of the computer monitor has died down
and keyboards are idle.
Ultimately we can make the net a place to
encourage people to be genuinely sociable
and not let the Net serve as place for people
to become reclusive.
Lets not help the Net embolden barriers,
lets at least look at the reasons why they came
into being. And a little discussion never hurt anyone really.
Welcome one and All.
"To set off for terra incognita with the hope of putting down roots in a new land. To take one’s inspiration from the encounter with the first population of these wide-open spaces and their age-old customs. To open oneself to the entire world, which comes here inspired by the ideal of a society in which the rights of all citizens are equal. Our history speaks powerfully about the freedom to invent a new world, about the courage underlying those remarkable adventures." Michaelle Jean Governor General of Canada on the occasion of her Installation
