“GRAVEYARDS, ALL”

by Desmond Kelly “Star of eLanka”

desmond (1)

When we talk of graveyards, our thoughts immediately wander to places like Kanatta in Lanka and, of course, there are many more, even in that little Island, “The botanical – garden Necropolis” in Springvale, Victoria & dozens more in this “giant” of a Country, graveyards here & graveyards there, pleasant places, nowadays, in comparison to the “rat-race” outside, places where “people” can rest, and not have a care in the World anymore. Actually, people are now “dying to get there”.

What a morbid way to start a very interesting “story”. Cut it out!!Kelly, & let us get down to the “nitty-gritty” of the “theme”. The following e’mail was sent to me, by another good friend & “entertainer” who, like me is still a long way from the “garden of rest”, because it is also a well-known fact that “only the good, die young”. Arthur Speldewinde ( I’m sure he won’t mind me mentioning his name, anyway, it’s too late now, Art.), sends out these e’mails that are most interesting, from time to time, which, I am certain, he would like to share with my readers on “eLanka”(now, fast becoming
a household name, both in Sri Lanka & Australia).

There is nothing morbid about these graveyards.
Everyone knows, or should know, that EVERYONE and EVERYTHING created by God has a LIFE-SPAN. The only exception are the “atheists” who do not believe in God. I do not have a clue as to WHO created them.

Anyway, the fact is that, from the littlest ant to the hugest piece of machinery ever built, there is a beginning and an end. God is the one & only CREATOR.

Those who don’t believe me, in Lanka, can go and jump into the Kelani-river, and my Lankan/Aussie mates can dive headfirst into the Yarra-river.

Now, for those of you who believe Arthur & myself, please peruse the following. It makes for fascinating reading & for those who can’t read, LOOK AT THE PICTURES.
