IN A SEA OF PEBBLES
I find myself lost in a million thoughts, a million things to do, a million people... I feel so lost these days.  I feel like I am wondering around with no cause.. Like my purpose has gone..  
This year was so hard.  I feel like I did not have the time to do things that is really important.  I lost family, Gained friends, found out that my X was on Drugs and he is leaving his husband, moved House twice... And Mr. Perfect I am still waiting for you to come and save me from all this...  It was a year of Drama....
My mom and myself was speaking about 2014 and I told her all we can do all around the world is have faith.  Without faith we can not move forward in life.  God tells us that through the storms He will be right there to look after us... He does not leave us the wind is just blowing into our eyes and we can not see him.  We need to be quite and wait and listen he is speaking..... I speak these words so easily but in actual fact it is not so easy....

Yes, it is a time for History to be written and how privilege we are to be standing in the middle of it all.  To have lived when such a man has lived with so much compassion and Love for his people and nation. 

Nelson Mandela will for ever be remembered by the world.  When I heard of his death I was not surprised he has been sick a very long time and he was frail..

Rest in Peace Madiba...

"There's a hole in the heart of South Africa and it's a dark pit of grief, filled with the tears of those who have buried murder victims over the last two decades. Statistics say South Africa registered a murder rate of over 15 609 a year at the last police count..." by Kashiefa Ajam and Ufrieda Ho (Powerful Words Thank You for them)
Kashiefa Ajam and Ufrieda Ho speaks to some of those left behind... How shocking that this article is on Page 18 of the Pretoria news weekend edition.  Such a beautiful piece written by these journalists.  Not being a fan of the media they were the first to make me say well done for writing about something worthwhile...  I am tired of reading about some celebrity making scandals.  We have serious Issues in South Africa.... The public should be made constantly aware of these issues so we can challenge change.... The Editors should be ashamed that these articles were so at the back of the newspaper.  These are powerful stories that should h…

South Africa - Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela said this Amazing thing:

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world...."

I could not agree more with this.  The education system is South Africa has become critical and the Text book saga has not helped the South African Educational system.... I was shocked to hear on the radio that we do not have enough schools for the new generation wanting a basic education.  How can a country so much wanting to bring change be without educational systems to teach the next generation.  This is why we can not eradicate poverty and crime.  

A friend of ours was shopping at a food Lovers market buying fresh produce for the week.. There was a lady helping him pack it in the trolley and after he paid he saw she was moving toward the door with it.  Soon he realised she was stealing the trolley of food from him.  How desperate must you be to steal food.  She did not have hope for the day.... She needed food for her Children....

Can someone just explai…
