The greatness of living

In many times life has a way of springing up a surprise into your life, in a sense that it seems as though you are not looking only to be surprise by a bomb popping up out of no where in your world. There are many reasons for your heart to lose a bit and also reasons for it to skip a bit. We happen to be searching for answers but yet don’t realise that they are just in front of us given but in disguised by unsuspected package such as an old man in a bus travelling the same road as you with the same destination but different plans and goals. Its amazing where life can throw you and what it can bring to you- in my journey I had the blessing of sharing some time with one of those sent angels; a well groomed and wise white old man whom I did not happen to catch his name, never the less- I managed to gain a lot of wisdom and advise from this old man. I may be using the word old in a more lose manner because even though this man may have been old of age, his heart is young and shows through his interaction with people. We spoke of many and almost everything under the son. Through all this I found myself being rebuilt and fed things that my soul desired to hear and what only I could only imagine happening. My ride on a bus to Cape Town became a great gain for me that is the greatness of living.

Appreciation

Out of curiosity of what I would find if I google the word: APPRECIATION, not surprisingly this is the 1st meaning of appreciation on my online dictionary: Recognition of the quality, value, significance, or magnitude of people and things. It is very easy to put things aside and forgetting to be grateful and showing that you care and respect others. I personally am guilty of doing the exact thing of being so spoilt rotten with love and care that I assume that it will always be there Well, this may come as expected somehow because I am big when it comes to assumptions…not something to be proud about. There is a time where in your life you feel misplaced and vulnerable to an extent that the loneliness makes you feel hopeless. Through this emotional rollercoaster my heart sinks to the bottom of my feet and tears flood down my face and confusion takes over clouding my judgment. My heart aches and my body moans in pain. Those around get lost in wonder and they become too scared to ask. Be ...

Remember remember

Things happen and so many come as shocking surprises and others as forgotten truths that we all wish not to witness the coming or final discovery of it. Its hard to face head on your worst fears and realising that what you always perceived and predicted as true is in fact the truth. Its all about having a back bone to be able to stand and face this world. When you are in pain and in bed on your own and no one hears and sees your thoughts, those are the deciding moments of your life. That is the time when one makes a choice to be or not to be. Only the strong prevail, only the might walk on. As we face the tides in out lives, we forget not that we once walked to the parks of the union buildings and shared our future plans and dreams under the beautiful clear blue summer skies. Now drifted and miles and oceans apart, we still hang on and look forward to a better tomorrow. Hold my hand and never let go, I will be an idea and you will be the wisdom behind it. There is so much that is still...

July 2011

For eight years I had gotten used to preparing for the one big day in every year up to the July of 2011. This year is different, very different...no longer will I work towards this big event that use to be the center of my focus from the beginning of the year to the end of July. For the first time in eight years...its gone. Well, I have moved from my little bachelor flat that I use to complain about to a one bedroom that still needs unpacking. One would think I just moved in over the weekend but yet its been a week or two now since my move. I am much happier here even though I haven't found my energy nor interest to stand up and unpack. This place is much better that where I was, at-least here I cant complain much about the pests that I was sharing the previous flat with, now I am able to disappear into my room; shut the door and not see the roaches at the kitchen whilst sitting or relaxing on my bed. I must say - I am really pleased with this step I have taken (that might just b...
