The thrust of Akimbo in Limbo is that only those who do not stand with arms akimbo when they are confronted with everyday human travails that we sometimes vainly attribute to nature will conquer and decide their tomorrow. Nature itself is kind. It can also be vengeful because of its plundering by humanity. As for tomorrow, its formlessness has been exploited and used to perpetuate lies. It has been used to pillage the happiness of individuals by beasts called human beings. Now nature, because we have violated it, and tomorrow, because we have bemired it, have aligned to become a mountain on the pathway to every person's triumph. Individuals, communities, countries and even continents have become stagnated and defeated. Some have returned to prehistoric periods in desperation, and surrendered to overpowering daily trials and tribulations or episodic disasters that hurt humanity. Individuals and communities will therefore have to climb several mountains of life to attain their victories, burrow through stones to access the honey buried therein or be transfixed to a position of despair and destruction.
