The pressure of freedom and opportunity
For a long time all our parents and grand parents could dream for us was to be free and blessed with abundant opportunity. Thank the ancestors this dream shared by many has become a reality and here we live and breathe in this beautiful time where no piece of legislation limits anyone being of taking from this world what they want,creating what they feel is missing and giving to the world the best of them. Goodness if only they could see us now. I think of the great members of my family for instance who I know were amazing people … Continue reading The pressure of freedom and opportunity
NOTHING IN THE WORLD CAN STOP YOU
Once again adversity and strife are upon your heels Word upside down mental mirrors shattered,surrounded by hollow bleakness Yet your soul remains untarnished by this character defining contention Your path is more precious and pristine than we could fathom in our most enlightened moments Neither hunger nor temporary discomfort could by any measure deter you from your goals This is capable of beating you but won’t , for as long as there is a heartbeat in your body and capacity for another breath The journey to victory is truly under stated but one your making none the less no infact … Continue reading NOTHING IN THE WORLD CAN STOP YOU

Parts of me
Parts of me pushed to war a battle of blame and shame After all we’ve been here before and the last time we swore we had learnt and wouldn’t be here ever again Yet some how eyes wide open we are again in the dark abyss of sobering reality A different part of me says you were foolish to laugh and smile as though pain and ache would never cross your path again you shouldnt have been happy because you know this never lasts this just isn’t meant for you Another says it’s not your fault these things just happen … Continue reading Parts of me

I think I’d forgotten her
Whilst watching a random tv program I hear a woman pronounce the number six just like my grandmother Dimakatso used to. At first I smile and all of a sudden I cringe in horror because I couldn’t remember when last I had thought of her.Could it be so that I had forgotten my beloved Mme (mother) as I called her ,as all her grandchildren did. My mind flooded with memories so sweet and wholesome of time when I was but a child with no knowledge of a world occupied by strife. I became overcome with emotions indescribable and held back … Continue reading I think I’d forgotten her
