dankie ma se kind

Thank you to the ones that came before me, who made this day a possibility so I could touch a pc scripting my thoughts to not be confined to paper... I am not lost for I am an African.

This root called freedom still has plenty to go, to fight, to tell, to see, to feel so it can one day touch more than just the history book orientated child of it's land. I celebrate it by exercising my choice to do or not do because I am free and my journey continues...

Thank you to every mother, father, child, teenager and grandparent that was moved enough to take part in the various uprisings that have led to this very day in mzantsi. If it were not for your decision to do something, anything however little in your corner then perhaps my people, our people would still be shackled by the chains of a diminishing rule that has left many a scar...

Dear Freedom
May Azania find you fully so that the healing she needs can take place so she can rightfully stand upright in the very world that found her to be worth plundering and disorientated to her natural wealth's value of beauty. Let Azania be Queen of her own space so that her offspring may be found living.

Can you be visible and clear enough for the uneducated to understand that you exist in choice. Can the educated buy a clue to realise long enough that theirs is to light up the world and become beacons of hope where they are at so that the whole glows brighter producing better fruits.

signed:
an Azanian child
with the hopes of a united tomorrow
to see a developed future for generations to come...

I think I'm late...

But it's ok. Hello Easter wend (weekend), you are divine.

I have made the most blessing discovery for me in music ministry... Deitrick Haddon. I discovered him in the movie, Blessed and Cursed and oh, man what a powerful voice he has. I have been listening to him since I found his actual albums online.

... oh snap I said I'm late didn't I... Well....

I'm late in discovering such a find. He reminds me of my cousin who sings like a dream and a friend or two here and there, he has prompted me to let them know that they are so blessed and that they too are called to minister with their talents. It is so important to realise and use the gifts you were given at birth or the ones you find come so naturally to you for they fulfil your purpose in this life that you live.

Things are so connected and some messages are recurring or become blatantly obvious as to what must be done in this your, mine, our life times. I sat at two different spiritual gatherings and the message was the same that we should not wait for great people to move the world but to find ourselves moving the world in our remote corners however insignificant we may deem our efforts, we may find that a little goes a long way.

Let us be the change we wish to see in the world. Can we help a little at a time where we are and perhaps the people we help will pay the blessings forward just like in the movie: Pay It Forward or in the exercise Oprah once did where she moved some of her audience members to start a blessing chain.

In the past few weeks I have been moved by the following scriptures:

Mark 5:31 and Romans 8:18 (p.s. to my drinkin friends it's not 18:18, now tl tl tl...)

Psalm 51: 1- 14

Love and Light... the universe blesses.... be that shining star where you are no matter the littlest glow you emit it makes a difference in the darkness where there is none at all....

The most amazing things happen silently while you are looking straight at 'em. The things we know, we numb out sometimes for their reality is too sharp to face, perhaps we hit the tar road only to see it as  a gravel one...

We find the fork in the road.

We see the world but when some things occur in our paths we are awakened to life's hidden treasures, allowed into another viewing room that sees things in colours painted by the universe as they are meant to be seen. Doors open wide and many a question arise, as each new gift is gifted.

We often say things and see most as insignificant or wow, some only to unremember them thrown in that subconscious box of keep sakes never to be to be opened 'til the great I am says it is time. As we grow it becomes evident that nothing happens for no apparent reason and that which seems truly arb finds its fitting place in the puzzle and the picture becomes clearer.

The truest colours settle and rainbows are redefined.

The fork in the road becomes experience with the choices it presents. Can I find the awareness needed to live the divine life at it's best? There's a greater purpose to walking this earth, will I leave it saying I have lived it?
The Colours have shifted yet again, I'm more awake than asleep now... But tell me shall I believe the truest essence as it comes into being. the journey now says: You cannot deny that which you are and who you are meant to be in this life time. It may seem the darkest hours are upon you yet the sun shines still in your midsts and as you lift your head up high a kaleidoscope of colour touches your being and  you are moved beyond measure to the wonders of the universe.

your soul is precious, it says: I matter most, this is my light beaming love.

A Letter to My Sunshine 7 April 2011

Who would ever have thought
that one day
Cetekazi
I would sit
writing
to bid thee farewell
my darling friend
You who nourished my soul
with your rays
I cannot undream this,
I know.
That you
shall not blink
smilingly my way
just one last time...
You loved us
with all your soul
How befitting
that the mocker in you
would choose to leave
on April Fool's
It is oh, so chilly
without you
It was on the greyest of days
that you left
this earth
What a void you have left
in all our hearts
But because you have loved us
it will get better with time...
Somewhere within us
we know you are happier now
And your soul is finding peace.
I bet everyone there
now knows who you are
I feel you still
in the love and warmth you exude
Your spirit lives
And your love is planted
 in our hearts
May the God of love
 be with you
