Captured Life of Us

Driving to work this cold winters morning here in South Africa I realised how the world goes by.

The sun was slowly creeping over the hills and the man selling the sunday morning paper was out on the street. There was a mist hanging low over the city. If only it was mist we would not be in such serious problems with the global environment. No alass it was not mist but polution hanging over the city.

My sister came to vist the past weekend and I must say it was fun having someone familiar in my house. We have always been close and that fact that the past couple of months my life as I knew it was fallng apart made having her around such a joy.

There is always something good about having someone around when life feels to much isn't there.

I am at work again. The Castle on the mountian......

Playing in my mind is like a deep dark hallway in a big empty house. I am not sure what all the sounds are I hear, but I know that they can not harm me. Although this is true I am still scared.

My road the past couple of weeks have been though. My husband and I have decided that we might consider a divorce. The "D" word is something that I never thought I would have had to consider. I thought I found the perfect man to spend my life with but maybe I was wrong.

Know I have no doubt that I love him very much, but we can not seem to make things work. We have become these two different people. At times I feel like How did this happen and then I can look at this calmly when I catch my breath and see how we have come to this piont.

The piont of maybe.....

Today I spend most of the day on the road between Johannesburg and Pretoria. Rush, Rush rush...

I Love the City Life. I am not complaining about the busy life of a city; I only wish it did not take so much of your time.

Like most People when living in the city you have to work and sometimes we have great distances to drive. Public transport in South Africa is not like in the first world countries where we can jump on a subway or bus to get to work. We have to drive in our cars. With rising fuel prices once again we can do with Safe and reliable Public transport system.

While the world is having the credit crunch i doubt that this problem will be fixed soon.

I Find City Life to be very exciting. If you have ever been to the USA like my friend Jaco and I you would know what a "New York minute" is. New york is my favourite place in this world and I love the fact that a thousand things can happen in just one second of a minute. This is why they call it a New York minut…

This I write to my Sisters....

It's a day when some one you loved died.

When they leave there is a void, an emptiness that can not be filled. It cause an aching in your heart none can explain.

Today is but a week before you walk down the Aile in a Beautiful White Dress to the sound of Wedding Bells. Dismay shouldn't even be part of this week or your day. Because some one was wreak less they killed Noenoe and caused you pain. My heart breaks with you I know how much you loved her and in a split second she was taken away.

Know I think of you.... She is with Jesus.....

Friends,

A Famous Spanish Novelist Called Miguel de Cervantes Once wrote:
"Tell me what company thou keepst, and I'll tell thee what thou art."(1547 - 1616) .

Even the Bible says one shall be know by your friends. These are the people that shape and mold us we should then pick them wisely.

A very good friend of mine once asked me "Have I told you I love you today?" Such sweet and gentle words when someone means them. I have very few friends, but all my friends are my best friends. They say you can't choose your family, but I say this is not true since I have picked my Family (Friends) like they have picked me.

Friends are there when you fall; to carry you when the battle of life beats you down and there when the rays of the sun glitters on you face as you watch days go by in joy. A friend is not just a person, they are support systems which none of us can survive without. Friends are family.

One must remember that not all of us is Blessed with a lo…

I have been thinking the past week: How we pass a million different people every day and never even notice them. Many times I have wondered what all these people must be doing, thinking and where is the road leading them.

Then It came to me while I was sitting in traffic the other morning... 46 million people in South Africa sleep under the same sky and most of them at the same time. Sound stupid, but everyday we all go to bed and sleep the night away till the break of day. This is one thing we don't have to wonder about.

What a small thing, but what a strange thing to think. We all dream although we can not always remember that we did.

Just a Small thought for the day....

The African sun is setting on the castle on the mountain and I watch the world go by outside the large gates. The people are rushing home to start the weekend and leave the work week far behind till next Monday...

Wednesdays use to be like a mini weekend here under the African skies, but few do the mini weekend these days since the economy has gone so wrong.... I was reading my favourite blog called the dabagirls and I must Say these women have such a great life even if the economy is pressing down on them. Their lives are like Hollywood stars for me since very few if any have home in the Hampton's and have beautiful apartments in the City. I admire these women speaking out about there situations. many want to hid things under the rug and after a while there is a big hump which become visible to the rest of the world. My believe is let it out since there are sure to be others just like you.

I love new york since I had the oppertunity to live there. Many have asked why do y…
