Conventional is a good fallback position isn’t it?

Is it, really? Think about it, conventionally your life starts as a baby. You get sent to play school followed by Primary school and High School. You participate with your school work and hobbies such as dancing, hockey, swimming or whatever tickles you’re fancy.

Then you enter your college/university years. After completing your studies, you get a job and earn a salary. You find a partner, get married, settled down with children and the whole pattern starts from the beginning.

If you look at this conventional life cycle, one realises that these steps are not applicable to most South Africans. With such a diverse country, our cultures and conventions are extremely different. So, let me ask you, what is your conventional lifestyle? Would you fall back on that?  I won’t!
