Speaker – our very own Ken White.
With a rousing introduction – almost as long as the talk,
Ken launched into a lesson on the Rules for being human.
You are the catalyst for discovery.
- You will receive a body – Love your Body. !
- You will be presented with lessons –
- you may get the test before the lesson
- There are no mistakes – only lessons.
- If you don’t know where you are going a bus
- can take you there. So you need to know the direction.
- A lesson is repeated until learnt
- Learning does not end. Self development is ongoing.
- You need time to reflect.
- There is no better place than here.
- Others are only mirrors of you.
- What you make of your life is up to you.
- All your answers are inside you.
- You will forget all of this at birth.

Entertained us with rules around the origins of marriage and who you can and can’t marry. Longest and shortest marriages and most number of divorces -23.
Finishing with a ripper of a joke.
And finally: Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear bright until you hear them speak.
This week's insurance claim:
I left for work this morning at 7am as usual when I collided straight into a bus.
The bus was 5 minutes early.
