a Grain of human left

Today I look around and see so many people have become cold bitter individuals and this has caused so much sadness. I am sad and mortified that there are some who are rude and harsh to other because they think they are better than the rest. Where is the grain of God left within your heart.

Why do people think when they have lots of money they have the right to treat others like dirt. The worst is that they don't even know what an impact it has on others. They wipe their feet on others like they have no feelings. Down stairs there are two men who thinks like this they look down on me like I am nothing like they have the right to treat me like I am not human.

Yesterday while walking in the City I passed a homeless women. You can see she is not a drinker but that life has hit her hard. The lines on her face tells of things I have not yet seen or experienced. It tells of loneliness and of a merciful God. Then I ask why God why so much pain. But all I hear is silence and then…

Liewe Heer

Die wereld is vuil en seer. Vrae wat draai en swaai soos 'n mengelmoes in my kop.

Vrae van Waarom en hoekom? Wanneer kom hier by my sit sodat ek kan verstaan wat gaan aan in die werled vol vuil en seer. Die Wereld wat U geskep het met Woorde uit U mond. Sal ons menslike brein dit ooit kan besef.

Ek sit hier en bewonder die bloue-bloue lug en die wit wolke wat soos watte hang daar bo in die lug. Ek dink Hoe Groot is U!!!!!

Ek dink tog weet ek U is iewers daar bo.

Die blare van vuurwarm oranja val van die akkerboom en ek besef weer U grootheid. Ek Besef weer hoe klein ek werklik is en dat U grootheid nooit deur enige wetenskaplike bepaal sal kan word nie.

Ek kyk na 'n seuntjie wat hardloop oor die gras na sy pa se oop arms en dink hoe U met U ope arms na ons staan en wag al draai ons weg U sal daar bly wag.

Liewe Heer ons wereld is vuil en seer......

the day of Irony

Image
On my way to work I saw something that touched me deeply. It moved my soul......

A man was begging on the street. The board around his neck said "Please Help! I do not have a job and have a family to support". If you know south Africa this is not a new thing every street corner in the city is littered with boards and people like this. But Today I looked at this in a whole new perspective. Just across the street their where men playing golf on the golf estate. I thought to myself well this is ironic. They are living the life while this man across from them is begging to survive. Not even noticing him standing here....

Alanis once said "well isn't it ironic don't you think....????" That those words would have new meaning many years later that she wrote in a song many years before. I wondered where did this mans journey start and how did it come to this. "How can God allow this to happen?" I thought. Maybe he just fell and forgot to sta…

It's yesterday again....

Sometimes we loose our way and dwell back into the past. It's yesterday again.....

We find ourselves lost and alone in a forest of memories. The forest always seems to me like something out of a fairytale. What we should remember is that no matter what, as long as we stay focused we will find our way back to the light to today.

The past should stay in the past and the present is what matters. Many times I remember from the past the future is born and we should find the sweet in the bitter. When we see the silver lining and take what we learned and apply it in the present we can grow to be big strong people.

The problem is when we stay stuck in the dark woods of things that came from the past we don't grow but wither away to nothing.

Many Times I have wondered what if I didn't know this person or what if this hasn't happened to me, but then I stop breath and look around to see my footprints deeply in crested in the past has contributed to my future. It's yesterday …

Misty Sunday

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 your own mind...

Image
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.....

Rush, Rush, Rush

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…
