proudly south african
Slowly I am starting to find myself. Understand and accept being African. I use to think to myself, the first chance I get to leave SA; I would take the 1st flight out. But something happened. I was walked past a guy playing his drums. I stopped to listen for a while. My heart echoed to that beat... Sign in to see full entry.

a woman' worth
Do women ever know their worth? Do they make sure that the people in the lives keep that worth that they deserve? I don’t know. Maybe we were created not to know that worth.

Old SA vs New SA(3)
You called the houses that the old government gave us match box houses; a 4 room house at that. You then come back and build a 2 room house. Wow, such hypocrisy. Living a lie and not realising an animal die huh? How easy is it to satisfy a human being! I am speechless! You took away the curriculum... Sign in to see full entry.
