“Dying would be rather inconvenient at this moment in time”-Kevin Loubser the Great
One of the many doubts I have about owning a blog is whether anyone ever reads my posts. This doubt led me to a brief pause in literary excursions in the middle of last year. I was convinced that the only person who ever read anything was my 12 year old sister. While I love her dearly and hold her opinion of my writing far above anyone else,this fact did make my blog somewhat pointless,as I could e-mail her the content and save the trouble.
I was,however,wrong. A week or so after what I thought was my last post,one Kevin Loubser of Pinetown approached me and demanded an explanation on the absence of posts. I wrote one post,Tumbling Along, to appease him and thought that was that. But Kevin was relentless. I soon got back into writing,not only to make him happy but also because I had rediscovered the joys of creating with words. I will forever be grateful to this man. This blog post was not merely posted to thank him for his influence on my writing,but to wish him.
Today is Kevin’s birthday. The world has been graced with his marvelous presence for 23 years. This universe would be dull indeed without his amazingly unique sense of humour,his inconceivable intelligence and his unsurpassed knowledge of all things technological. Besides being,I like to think,my biggest fan and most avid reader,Kevin has extraordinary tastes in books,music and friends. He laughs at my jokes and makes endless comments on my caffeine intake. Yes,Kevin,I AM drinking a cup of coffee as i type these words.
Happy,happy birthday Kevin!!! To Kevin Loubser,ladies and gentlemen...what a man!
