Well I've had a few days away from my blog as to be honest things have slowed down a bit here in Thailand. And after a massive victory for England against Italy I had a two day hangover.
I did see two friends from Dubai yesterday, had a great catch up and it was interesting to hear their stories on my disappearance from Dubai. I also heard a few more stories, and yes, like I have previously said and whole heartedly acknowledge, everyone has issues and problems to deal with. More of that later perhaps - the truth is out there.
My fitness levels are improving so I am hoping that I can resume my Muay That kick boxing very soon. They are improving as I am continuing to dedicate myself to improving myself, at least my physique for the time being. Me mental state took a hungover hammering on Sunday thanks to a great victory by England over the Italians! In terms of exercising for the past few days, excepting Sunday, I have been swimming about a mile in the sea at around 7am.... ie for me now, in 31 minutes time.
Having lived in Dubai for several years this is something that I never made the most of, as an opportunity - swimming in the sea. Although I might add that swimming here with a back ground of paradise with the sun rising over the lush green hills with silhouetted palm trees is a little bit different to swimming with a back ground of a building site for money launderers, cheating Arabs, inflated ego's and many despicable Westerners; sadly the place turned into a very high class version of Shameless - well that is my lasting impression.
There are some decent people over there, from all back grounds, however people do change, we shall see what becomes of the place and it's people over time. But effectively when an incredibly wealthy "Governing" entity state that is part of the incredibly wealthy "Brotherhood/Mafia" that is the UAE decides to employ the skills and effectively borrows vast incredible monumental sums of money from Western business to create this very Arabic "My balls are bigger than your balls" eutopia - and then decides it won't pay back the monies - well - who coined the phrase "A cheating Arab"?
Mind you I could equally say the same about a particular white "Arab" that I used to call a brethren lol. Money, or rather the perceived lack of it does funny things to people I guess.
I suppose when contracts are "Written in the sands" - arguably the most ridiculous saying ever - then the West and whoever else got their fingers burnt - only have themselves to blame for being naive enough to trust said "Cheating Arabic" leaders. Like the West, they have a set of equally corrupt and greedy rulers, the division between rich and poor is off of the scale with the rulers living already in the heavens on earth whilst their people live in abject poverty in comparison. These Sheiks, leaders, puppets, muppets? Well they just hide behind their whiter than white dish dashes and holier than though daily propaganda being belted out by brainwashed clerics or whatever they are called. Oh, and newspapers, they use them as well, and the radio, and the tv, oh and the internet..... Pretty much like our governments do with our "Free" press..... David.... Stop it....
Anyway, on the Arabic front, it looks like an uprising is finally on the way, you can only keep a camel down for so long and Egypt look to be leading the gold rush that may result in a rush on gold - as the political equilibrium on black gold starts to waver - changes are a coming and the knock on effects for us all could be, well, revolutionary to say the very least.
So I digress, I have gone from swimming in paradise to wondering why the hell the people of these Arabic states put up with their leader's greed - Allahss - see what I did there - perhaps the brainwashing is currently being spread to thinly...... On both sides..... I guess they've at least been content with diverting the "State or is it The State's" funded terrorists towards the Western power base, and we've been content to think it was Arabic/Muslim state funded...... I wonder if that'll return to haunt themselves/ourselves as their's is probably the peaceful equilibrium that the Western leaders don't really want to disturb....... God/Allah, stop it David.....I am getting too far ahead of myself now and think it's time to go for a swim.
Have a good day. Enjoy it whilst you can. x
