Celebrating the Harvest of All-Year-Round Cultivated Effort for Upright Ascension

To lay emphasis on aspects of life is to highlight the specialness of those things being emphasised. For Afrikan souls in their natural norm of pinnacle civilisation, the totality of their life’s substance and its plethora of upright constructions carried the specialness of exceptional brilliancy.

According to a contemporary mainstream source the word emphasis holds the following definition:

“special importance, value, or prominence given to something”.

Specifically, as emphasis relates to culture, another mainstream source offers the following:

“Cultural emphasis is an important aspect of a culture which is often reflected though language and, more specifically, vocabulary. This means that the vocabulary people use in a culture indicates what is important to that group of people”.

Certainly, Afrikan souls are the pioneers of language and communication who have cultivated a vast range of vehicles for such expression – the spoken word, writings, symbology and so on are replete with qualities of highly civilised living throughout the ages.  

Whether, emphasis is laid upon aspects of the thriving Afrikan cultural norm or focus is given to their norm of upright cultural prowess in general, excellence to reveal this people’s maximal potential and capability is brought to the fore.  

What then of Afrikan souls in a state of interruption and disruption? Subject to the imposition of destructive ills by others that mean the Afrikan ill, civilised living for this primary people can suffer acutely. In addition, destructive pseudo-cultural patterns can be pushed and peddled for Afrikan consumption. In such conditions, what does the spoken word, writings and symbology as a focal point of emphasis then become? If others that mean the Afrikan ill have their way, these avenues of expression would surely be everything other than civilised – at best.

Only Afrikan souls can restore, secure and express themselves accordingly from their own upright culture. Even if the language and communication form is not native to themselves, selection and choice of – for example, words – can have either constructive or destructive effect. Of course, steeped in a level of self-knowingness and the recovery of civilised living word choice becomes reflective of upright construction and ascension.

Surely, the Afrikan will again be able to emphasise grand civilisation with all of its qualities of excellence for themselves with self-determined effort of rightful order. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
