Renewed Commitment to Nature in Tumultuous Times

Life is unpredictable, fragile, ephemeral and precious, and it often behaves so as to serve us a stark reminder of these traits.

The sudden and untimely demise of master spin bowler Shane Warne of Australia is yet another case in point, and a marker of the alarming trend of the growing occurrence of heart attacks in relatively young people, especially men.

The causes for this may be many, but for us, the derivative is the same as ever – work ever smarter and harder to detect cardiac issues as early as possible, and report them as accurately, quickly and intelligently as we can, which is at the heart of why we do what we do.

Another matter that’s very close to our hearts, as I’m certain you’d know, is that of women empowerment. For far too long has the gentler gender in our midst been oppressed and sidelined, and we’ve been on a mission ever since our inception to correct that to what extent we can.

Ours is an ongoing effort, and it probably will never be complete in our lifetime. We will only keep striving, and taking every step we can to contribute to a legacy we can be proud of when we look back. And our Femmé programme is just another step in that direction. The idea behind it is to provide a support system, a collective of consciousnesses, to help what is a major part of our workforce assume the best possible position to excel and achieve happiness.

The cover of our internal magazine, Pulse, features my trip to the wild. In these times of ongoing military aggression, after a raging pandemic for the best part of two years wasn’t sufficient, a retreat to Nature is the best possible balm, and I’m truly glad I got to do something that I really love. It was a reminder of the simplicity of Nature, the lack of wanton killing, the absence of politicking, of manipulative power struggles. It was a mirror to how far away humanity has gone from how Nature conducts her affairs.

Over the coming months I certainly intend to do it more often, but if the story inspires you too to spend what time you can in the sanctuary of Nature, my effort of penning the photo story would be accomplished.
