The Green, the Gold and the Good...

Gold is a statement. 
It communicates without speech.

Some can.  For the rest, sorry for your loss. 

Like the majority of statements, either you love it or you hate it.
We all have our reasons. 
Very often having made up our minds, it is difficult to change it.

Defficil pero no impossible.

Gold is such an integral part of human history.
 Gold = wealth.
 But it is a symbol for the best.  The champion is worthy of gold.
Go for Gold.


 In childrens stories.
Goldilocks.
Rupunzel who has Golden hair.
And Rumplestilskin who spins straw into gold...

But Gold is in the EVERY DAY.... Childrens songs, "Doe a deer a female dear, Ray a drop of Golden Sun..."

"I had a little nut tree and nothing would it bear, but a silver nutmeg and a Golden Pear..."

Gold is mine in the leaves in autum. 

In every part of our expressing wealth, warmth richness or attraction,gold is ours. We have dubbed Petrolium - Black Gold.  

Gold pirates in Johannesburg that have plundered old mines to leach the last of the gold from the left over ore.

Gold in myth.  The mystery, it tells of fame and fortune.
Is gold perhaps still our way of having a bit of all of that?

Has the word woven itself into our fabrick of Luxury  and this fabrick of luxury glitters with gold?
Has the beauty that capitvated us for so long, like the metal got the qualities of the metal itself?
For this noble metal, Gold, is mutable and changeable, in it s shape.

We melt it, move it, make it, again and again. Gold is everlasting. Gold is dinamic, like a mashine. But it's not.  It is capable of anything!!  It hides it s own potencial in the distraction of it s beauty. Is this material perhaps intrinsically "Green"?  Through the fire and the crusible metal is tranceformed.  Being able to be adaptable. Shapeshifting, mutable?

How green is the company you keep?
Are these issues also the ones that large companies and corporations and even governments are now facing with Social networking, the internet, media, and tranceparency and accountability?

 It becomes what it needs to be.  Those who comply, those who look at what we need and want, give the society what they want, eventually will rise to the top, like cream.

Creme de la creme of social media go viral within days...

We would like, some of us, the Midas touch, turning everything into Gold.  But Midas, with his special gift of turning everything into Gold that he touched, Prayed to Bacchus Begging to be relieved of this curse that came with the gift, since everything he touched turned to gold, so did his food, and he would have certainly starved.

But somehow this warning is not enough for some.

With skilled labour that produces products from this material dwindling and varying factors that are driving people to other industries, this industry is on the brink of a collaps -  in terms of knowledge and skill and most of all integrity and accountability.  

  The effects have already shown themselves to those who have expertise.  If people dont do something they will find themselves part of a messy excuse for an industry.  Some of us can see what has been happening.

Until then we stil have Gold tequila! And Golden locks of beach hair on golden skin!! We are still young and Golden!!!

Golden Catwalk frocks,
Golden glittery slip dresses with skyskraper stillettos just after you go off the beach,strait for cocktails and dancing to deep beats.
Gold is rich.
Gold is warm 
and precious.
Gold Glows

And so are we. 
We are the Good.
We are Golden.
We are the Green.
