and unite it together with the world 

our world is a better place because of your contribution

you are the face of the perfect world without hatred and racism

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela a servant of the people,loved by the people!

you have not only touched the family of South Africa but the world

life citixen

i am a student of life
taught to survive
to embrace my underdog genes
anointed to thrive in hardship
to led a life unique to me
to be wise so i can narrate my story

it is via this enrollment that
i got to learn that life is a revolution
and each day  when one wakes up
its always at 0 degree and its up to
you to make it a complete  revolution

while each second represent failure or
success,while each decision increase or
decrease your life expectancy
while each interaction guarantees
fiendship or friendship for life

i walk miles and miles trying to understand
my purpose each day but my determination
is off focal even though everything is array in heavens
i guess i am a life citixen trying to survive like
am taught each day

escaping a determined prognosis of my destiny
by stimulating long lost passion of life
which exists among my hemispheres
which is to be a human of stature and respect!

Your Descendant

I would like to appear like a true descendant to all

furnished with all the wisdom for all

while those that matter watch and ask questions

questions that are of rhetoric by nature

i would like to hail above to celebrate nature

be strong like the alpha lion among my peers

be a competitor that is never challenged

stay within my territory and flourish like spring flowers

how is it that i am like this in this life time?

wasn't i the raged calamity man in previous life?

oh my,this is a deja vu because at times i feel so inferior

but as i sit president to all, lost in power  and clouded by wisdom

Oh wonders of the world with your mystical tails known by all

i fear myself for i am your descendant with ravishing nature

like a good flora that i am with a set orign

oh good heavens revive me always because times have changed

Though you bring happiness that i track you with my heart

gratitude is due where you grand your power to me!

Son of Africa

i am the son of Africa

born in a sacred space

to thrive like a lion

born to shine like a day light

like profound rivers beneath mountains

feeding all nations with pride

pride of being an African

like grey winters melts away

as spring greets with greener pastures

oh the son of African daughter

with everlasting smile known by fellow Africans

oh Africa my beautiful land 

you are the place of my beginning 

and you are the place for my fall

for i have seen each birth of your dawn

that's why i stand with pride in this land

a land with possibilities, Africa i am your son

So divined by spirituality and polished like gold

with an eager to speak the language of the ancestry

that is lost in my tongue while faith reveals it

to pave unity among the divisions in the African land

oh sons of birth land of man kind unite yourselves

sons of the rainbow nature believe your power

because each dawn brings a new light so enlighten your hearts.

Time in life

in nature things happen spontaneously

where you find people resonating in the same frequency

of thought which blows you mind on the grounds of morality

finding that someone that makes your world autonomous 

in many ways that one can never imagine themselves 

life is unique for everybody but for some their lives are mirrored

for a reason only known to the creator because they are destined 

to be that way, its just who they have to be and nothing won't change that

fear on the other hand it disables your ability to lead the life you desire

chance on the other hand allowing us to experience things that people 

think we are limited to reach or achieve and it all depends on you to take that stand

in which you develop trust for yourself which allows your confidence to resonate

but on the other hand we forget of something that plays a role in everyone

that being regret and self-condemnation complex for it channels terror

into our lives for years to come knowing that you repelled all the good

things that came into your life because you think you dont deserve them

there is no greater teacher than time, that it has been so in past centuries

which is why it is the most respected element though absent from periodic table due to its virtuality.

we choose who to have in our lives and all that God does is bless our decision that we make daily

and for that is why we celebrate love because it brings different people together and be one for years 

it grounds individual to have affluent spirits that allows them to be happy for centuries 

it is the only thing that allows us to have faith in ourselves and those around us

it is a gift that's rare between two people and unite them to keep each other happy

Last touch

when you feel your life slipping away

you try by all means to hold on to the pieces

pieces that you have seen being torn apart while you sit

surely i have done better but all this pass so fast 

while you slowly digest the pain like a palsy patient

within the fragments of time i wished that i knew how it felt to touch you

just to feel the softness of your soul through your superficial being

which it now seems like a lost song that was once loved

it was by the last hug and touch that i realized that i don't want to let go

because i could feel the future and saw fragments of the future

and it was by that last touch that i felt your rejection in my heart 

it was by that last touch that i blacked out and nothing is my memory

i believe that my time will heal all and what happened be and remain

having something some warm like that is not chance but spirituality

which balanced all the gravity in my soul to be rectus to you

by the last touch it was the end as it was clarified

all happens for a reason in life so knowing the answers limits knowledge

mystery elevates your wisdom and builds you to be a better you that you know

Love can transform your life just by seeing her smile and laughing at your nuts

moments and it is only when you meet your fate that you gaze into your destiny 

it was by the last touch that i realized my dream will never come true

because i lost my heart in space and lost you in the process

last touch the decider of my path and i ceased and lost in love

love that i respected and cherished but now seems like false words

floating like helium in a balloon waiting for a sharp edger 

Confession! part-1

I got attracted to you because of your beauty

and at that moment by looking at you i felt fire

in my chest, ever since i got hooked by your personality 

and how you carry yourself as a woman

each day i beat up myself for not telling you that

I LOVE YOU and a thought of you one just falls in love

its so hard to look at you and want to share all this

because i am scared to tell you,

 your amicable nature intrigues me every time i see you

every moment i try to capture with detail because you are special

special to this heart that i have that need direction from your love

i feel lost in space and consumed by future tense as i speak of you

And the way i seek guidance from the Lord on how to love you each day

just give me hope in this love i have for you because it's so

much that talking to you hurts,the more you push me away

the more i want to exhibit how being with you makes me happy

sometimes i feel like writing all my thoughts out on paper so i can read 

what's inside my head but that just makes life even more difficult 

each night i ask myself the twenty one questions about this love that

emerged without notice and ignited with so much power that i wish of 

holding you for days just for you to hear my heart beat

Jozi

Jozi the New York of Africa

city of Africa filled with all nations

a place for every possibility

known to those that have 

love for no sleep

place where great riots 

has taken place for freedom

Jozi exacerbated by its danger

with streets filled with life 

and great consumerism 

appreciated by all Africans

a place so dark during the day

filled with so  much light in the night

what happen to the class Jozi?

now you filled with dirty 

like the inner city beggar

in your own streets

oh fellow Africans,

what have we done to

this city that was once awesome?

though you still retain your greatness

through your prestige places

like Sandton new city

redefining what you once had

which is glamour and sparkle

oh great African capital

you are a legend explored

by the world and its dwellers

oh Jozi rainbow city

alive at night and with its roars

in daylight with gunshots like

fireworks in the new year eve

Jozi city of lights and liberty

and entertainer of the free spirits

Jozi maboneng!

Elevation in space of love

One believe in love
and it will always be like that.
times pass when hurt was numbed
where pain is just a normal sensation
where tears dry out because they are pointless

but you always know that love is there
where muscles of sadness tires out
to stimulate smile once again
life will always keep rolling and rolling
where small things will not deviate you from the plan

but make you realize your true self,


One believe in love
 because it's tangible
and it's known to everybody
my sleep is better since it happened
my worries for the future are less

my faith in my ability
 to love is grandeur
life today is easy because of love
all that is there is one thing
and one thing only, love!

Matters of Heart

time is the only thing that we virtually have because you can never be sure about your place in this world. then comes the most difficult thing that we all afraid of love because though it's easy to actually fall in but other mechanisms that comes with it are like future they come by surprise each time.

in which makes me think each day of the past because that's the only measure i have to determine the out come of the present and the shallow future that lies in my mind.though i believe that we start living from within our capitis box and decide to make it reality which means it took some considerations before it happens.

although it takes two to tango and no one can never blame anyone on anything that happens because the measurement you have calculated may over shot the mark,landed on the mark or did not make it at all.which becomes a bit of a problem unless you have a back-up mechanism in which you can give your dilemma to the high power for wisdom and further looking into for validation and blessing.

Love is pure and can never destroy only the mind of beings have that potential to do just that.love is transparent and has no motives to do harm but bring peace to those that have the ability to love.love is harmonious because were it is there is personal grow and prosperity to govern the souls,love is the breath that we take each day because it has an immense purpose to humanity.

My Woman

I sit each day in duress visualizing
you're arrival in my life like a long
distance train, i worry that choices
i make each day might not be good
enough because i don't know you

i sit every night asking myself if my living
years aren't reaching their peak because
i want you quickly and everyday is harder
without the knowledge of your where about
because i know you have the love i need
and your beauty is incomparable

each woman i see i mistaken her for you
i pray each day because the only way
i can feel your presence is through that
spiritual bond we share from heavens
i worried myself because i have looked
and i cant seem to find you my woman

Princess of my life and the love that is
osmotic among us i feel is immense
i can feel you each time i go to sleep
that you are near and these days i wish
my heart could be the gps for your love

i wait with fear because i desire you with
every fiber of my body and the wait is slowly
driving me into solitude and without you
i feel like i am going senile.  

29.07.2013 SURPRISE!

I have been to surprise parties around my place whenever i had time to just have fun with people i spend most of my days with never have i ever thought that one day that person would be me.but the day of the 29th was a day i never expected that i would celebrate my birthday because of my school work which i didn't get to present the following day like i thought i would do.on the birthday i actually wrote a test the whole morning which i hope i did well because i really felt like i did something in that test.

Anyways yes i attended the classes the whole day and got to a point where i felt like i was going through some depression because of the exhaustion i was under without sleeping the previous day(Sunday).so the plan was the birthday was to be celebrated the following day after i have presented and wrote my test, but on the other side of campus things were not going according to my plan for the evening.it started with a call from a friend of mine whom i previous have helped with couple of research papers and her thanks was suppose to be a meal of anyway i want to eat from the last semester, so i answer the call from her she says:"i am from work i would like to take you out like i promised and the time couldn't be better because it is your birthday" not knowing that she is a decoy to make sure that i am being watched so that i could be controlled.

So i thought so going to check if the choir has left because it was getting late and me being a leader i got out of my place to campus and when i got there people were not there like i thought i would find them instead i found my colleagues just talking about music and other things which i was not interested because i went there to look for Hlogi(my best friend)to go with me to celebrate my birthday with the girl that i thought was going to buy me a meal like we spoke. Hlogi being himself paid for the meals since he said he will get me something for my day that was how he was meeting his promise i guess.

something got my attention on our way to mcdonalds which i didn't mention which was the frequent phone calls that he was receiving which took them behind us.i didn't mind that at all because it was my birthday lol so we went in and ate then Hellen(the decoy)deployed make sure that i am controllable, said we should leave because it was getting cold so me being me i said ok, then we went into the campus expecting nothing extraordinary to occur up until things didn't make sense.like see Kgwedi with a camera and his sister saying things that didn't make sense.i still was too gullible this day very much so.i don't know what happened there really because i saw signs but didn't give them enough attention to them like i would some other times.

up until i opened the boardroom door of horror land where i saw people sitting in the dark and i got very shivery that i have never have been in my life and they just screamed surprise,and all i wanted was just to run away because that was just too much to take in and without any expectation that made me so vulnerable that i stopped the myself from tearing up in front everybody because really, that was just touching seeing so many people whom i thought they went home being there singing for me and as i write now i feel some emotions that i don't think are expressible.

ever since in my life have i had such a big party like the one i had this year and i shall call that birthday a birthday present from heavens.i really would love to thank all those who took part in organizing that special day to be AWESOME AND GRANDEUR.i thank you from the deepest chambers of my heart and i've learned something about you guys that you are not only my friends but my family.for that present that you gave me only assured me that having you guys in my life is a Lehlogonolo (Blessing) and i now see why i was given this name it because i was suppose to meet you so that i could be meeker than i am and more.i thank the great God our lord to bless your hearts to continue loving and bring good things in your lives because you have powers to change peoples' lives and turn them into glamourous events.

I LOVE YOU ALL BECAUSE YOU ARE THE PRESENT I GOT THAT I APPRECIATE MORE THAN THE PARTY YOU THREW FOR ME.I HOPE WHAT WE HAVE WILL NOT FADE BUT GROW TO BE GREATER THAN WHAT IT IS.

Mandela day

Now this day was amazing for the third years of Homoeopathy, busy people on all levels just after they finished writing an exam on a Thursday morning, On the birthday of the greatest man whom liberated the people of South Africa Tata Nelson Mandela, they decided to take part in a community engagement walk organised by the health faculty of the Doornfontein campus UJ. 

before the walk:3rd year Homoeopathy students with Dr Patel(in black) on Mandela day

Watching everyone’s faces who took part was a huge excitement showing what I would like to call Sisonke (togetherness).this class has been rather marvellous throughout the year doing awesome things together. Amongst other things that happened in the walk was the group staying together wearing the Mandela day T-shirts designed for the walk, singing and chanting in the streets of Elis park cleaning with meek hearts laughing street by street.

(ready to take upon 67 streets of  elis park together with other health students)

The great part about this walk is that the 3^rd years were the only class from homoeopathy department amongst the health departments that was there, as a third year student myself I am proud to have been part of that initiative that the university took. I still look forward in celebrating this day next year together with our awesome team leader Dr Patel whom loves to sweep the streets and give back so much because she is so amazing, she even organised a snack for the Jo’burg streetmen/hobos from the snack we had during the clean walk. ”Sisonke forever team 18 members homoes”

A KING DOWN

This last week i lost someone who was an immense inspiration in my life, a man whom i valued and his guidance still roams the chambers of my heart and i miss him very much each day.he was a man who had substance of greatness a grandfather that you can never change for another one because he had a vision of the world his children must live in and what his grandchildren should be in the eyes of the community.He literally build his community to what it is and this passed week he passed on and my heart ache each day because he loved me from my infancy, guided my actions in life because he is my roots, my origin and for that i thank God for allowing me the time to know him the way i do now.

 his passing have not settled yet from the day i got the call from my aunt delivering the news that really saddened my heart only because i knew right there that i shall not have those times listening at the corner of the house to his voice singing hymns and songs of  the Saints.although he was old enough for one one to say he lived his full life but i felt that his sickness should have subsided so that he can live to see his advises mature with in us and watch us become gentlemen like he was and also witness his wisdom that he shared so much come alive but his pain was too great to watch.But with time all that was and the pain of loss with be healed i just hope that he rest in peace.

                                         REST IN PEACE PAPA! WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH

Death

darkness such a grave colour
with coldness roaming around
death a long lost friend of life
sleep that is alleviated by nothing
that brings only sorrow to the beloved
loss of the great and inferior with no difference
lost love that perish with dust six feet
wooden box that bring tears like rain
tears that cleanse the soul over the loss
why do we cry?is it because they are no more
or to fill the void? take it easy and calmly accept
that you can not change overtime.
feeling of emptiness because happiness is compromised
maybe the write feeling description is betrayal
because you lost something unexpectedly
with grief that brings numbness everywhere.

THE JUNE 16TH-YOUTH DAY_SA

HISTORIC MOMENTS!

The youth day public holiday of South Africa was legislated into a public holiday not because of the horrific turn out of the Soweto uprising in June of 1976 but for the effect the riot had on the apartheid regime and liberation of the country.the students of the century had recognised that the then government was dictating/oppressing them by forcing them to learning some subjects in afrikaans the language of the government that if dehumanizing them and not recognising the african race at large.the youth of then saw it fit that they have to take a stand against this movement the government has put forth to the students and show intolerance that they shall not learn with afrikaans.

Not realising that what they were planning to do was not only going to liberate them only but the whole country.their agreement on the match was that they going to peacefully demonstrate their dispute against the government with respect but it turned into a blood shedding even as some students have lost their lives in that event although the results of the motion did not take place right away but after that event there was change and their fight probed the apartheid government which allow the freedom fighters to soldier on with their campaigns to liberate the country. Amongst the lives that were lost is Hector Pieterson a young boy 12 years of age whom is celebrated and the government dedicated his life by building a commamorium centre called Hector Pieterson square where all the students of Soweto uprising are honoured.

(PICTURE TAKEN IN 1976)

A holiday that has so much history that is too important for our country and liberal minds that have fought for us in the country is poorly celebrated. Youth kill each other on this day every year under the influence of alcohol in place were that youth was not thinking and when one check in those hangout groups that take place only a handful of the youth there have certificates of higher education where those students wanted to go and empower themselves.

UPRISING MONUMENT OF THE TENACIOUS STUDENTS-TRUE LEADERS

This holiday to me by my observation has lost its value to the citizens because it is celebrated in ways that don’t make sense to why it was legislated in the first place. I just don’t know what we can say we can call this holiday and I guess maybe we can just denounce it from the national roll and just have a normal day. Then those that find mean to the date in their dairies can tell stories to their new generation about how this country came to be free from oppression and maybe when we look at it that way thing will make sense better. Our children will understand and accept that, that needed to happen so things would better for the future and that is how we have restored balance in our land to minimize inequality and someone being more superior to others. i am just saying!

21ST CENTURY(playful youth with no goals)

WHO IS GOING TO CELEBRATE OUR EXISTENCE(youth of 21st century)?

Women

women people of elegance

made of fragile temper

made to function with a substance

substance that makes them be superb individuals

people of order, harmony and humbleness but expressive nature

 a substance that can rage their awesome nature

and bring a cloud of Cynicism

why would you make a women crazy?

are you not appreciative of the harmonious field they portray that you activate them

women people of the wolf descend without the smell that repel but that lures

people with a latent hunger for love only activated by affection

women, center of the creation although not the focal point

but people who are totipotent, handcrafted to perfection without limit

women, beings that have a gift to bring new life into the world

mothers of earth with love that makes one wonder if their exquisiteness can be stolen

Aren't we glad to exist amongst such race of wonders with their destructive nature?

but still have ability to protect and care for us all

their magnificence is enduring just like their unconditional love

oh mother earth with green pasture just like a women's tenacity 

True Life Happenings

Now was going through Mr Bill dove's google+ account and i just fell in love with his message cards which i think really reflect the tittle of this blog.and i just kick started the inner me to act and really see if what i do with my life need change or enhancement.

 I guess after all these things have been read the choices and filters that need to occur is only upon you i mean these card sent only one message which is you are in the driver sit.and one need to recognise that enlightenment because life is intertwined to an extent that whatever you do that's right it will enhance every corner of your life.Motivation lie within us all we just have to realize it first which you can only achieve once you researched or introspected yourself and really dig deeper than you have done before that way you will find your true higher self.

Fathers of the days

You know some things you really don’t share with people because you afraid that they will not understand or relate to you if you emitted them to people because they don’t know that feeling of loosing someone you really love and every year you go through the same affects.i sit sometimes in in the night just thinking how it would have been if he was still here and growing up seeing him once or  twice a month sometime for a long time have be quite hard.so comes the fathers day which is painful to celebrate knowing that you hardly knew your father and that the chance of telling him that you loved him so much is no more.

So some days i would just sit and feed myself with memories it i can feel that love that he told me he had for me when i was a child.you grow up safe guarding each decision you make because there is no one to say: “baby that one was not the correct way to handle that issue or just a cliche line like son i am proud of you and i must say you are good”.i am talking about that guidance from a father and those advises that he would pull up his sleeves.

i always remember this one which i think has kept me afloat and always scored me blessings on some level,He say:”Nolo i want you to respect your mother because she is the closest person you have”.oh he was quite drunk that day but i felt his words like i was in the future because today those words still rings in my subconscious and i can vividly see him in my head.

the year of his passing he called me a lot which i didn't understand till this day because now when i think about it.i feel like he knew something that he didn't assert to me but wanted to make sure that i understood his love for me and little brother because he was young, but it is of this day called father’s day i remember those conversations that were endless on the 30th of each month from the January to may of 2007.

what i can see is that it gets so gloomy i need that father advise which i never find.when i am in those moments of displacement i was taught by my mother that you pray  to God ask for guidance because no one can give you that insight you need other than God Almighty.so far i have lived without any advise from any being but i try to learn from everyone that have good view about life and have understand of gentleness.

so as it get hard every year i found a therapeutic way of talking about my unawesomized fatherly department which is writing that way i feel way better and develop a great understanding of myself.in some way this encourages me to introspect my self and built my character to aspire to be an awesome dad like my day was although we spent time apart but he made sure that he fill the space with a phone call once a month for many hour.his passing brought me a great heartache because i had only Christmas holidays to sit with him and listen to the stories and joke together with my cousins.

so those moment i spend with him were valuable to him and he brought me cheese every time he came home hence why today i love cheese so much.so instead of celebrating fathers day i celebrate fathers of the days because i can just bring smiles upon my face each day by exacting one of the greatest memories i have of him.so i know that a certain decision is not easy i would just tap into the wisdom that he prepared me in and ask myself what would daddy do?and also pray to get the best advice.

so for those that you still got dads i think you should be grateful of their presence in your lives because it is not always that you that lucky and also an advise to the fathers cherish your kid, sons and daughters.this is by little thing like telling them that you love them more than anything and to hold on to your words for guidance when you are apart.i am proud of myself because i turned out ok for someone who spend time living alone for year apart from family because of school.so the conversations that i had with so many people in my life have contributed in making me a humbled, caring and resilient person i am today.

one of the most powerful things that really still enhance and illuminate my life today is prayer and my faith in the Lord.so i hope everyone celebrates their fathers day with their favourite fathers in the whole wide world every year know that love of the father never disappear.happy fathers of the day and love the dad i had because he was the best.

I guess nostalgia was setting in!
