We have moved!
It's been a while since we posted something on this blog, guess what! we are Alive. The beginning of this year we made a lot of noise about 2008 being two thousand and great/200gr8. It is certainly is. One of our goals this year was to travel, 200gr8 did not dissappoint we travelled to Durban in March and to Cape Town in May. We going back to Durbs next week. And before the end of the year we will go to atleast one camping spot.
On first August we started a new job at Zeiss- Irene in Centurion. We finally got a buyer for our house in Saulsville, this was a difficult one. I must say it was hard letting go of our beautiful spacious home. We will get another one. We eventually got our new 2008 Corsa utility sport on the 2nd of August. We moved to Eco Park on the 1st of september, Eco is just 5km to work.
It's been more than three months for us with Gugu our beautiful girlfriend, she is so lovely. All I can say is that all of these was possibble because of hope and faith. We always new that Our Father, God Almighty will provide. We know for a fact that more are still coming. We bless the Lord our God who never sleep nor slumber, he watches us everyday. Thank you God.
Never give up on the things you want, you have them already.
I must go now, need to enjoy this change in my life.

King of Kings and Heroes
This year in my country South Afrika we celebrate Good friday and Human rights day on the same day 21 March. It is very difficult for one to write about this historic days on the same page. Good friday is moved around every year, I don't know who is responsible for that. Good friday has a lot of significant meaning for us Christians. We celebrate it as the day Jesus Christ was crucified for our sins.
God created man in his own image, the man fell and was expelled from the Garden of Eden. The Holy father God, send Jesus Christ so that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus even though He had no sin Himself, died for us. He rose on the third day and the bible state that He was exalted. His name became the most powerful name, the name above all names. He became the Lion of Judah, the Prince of peace, the Councillor, the Messiah, the King of Kings. Even today Jesus Christ is sitting on the right hand of the Father, interceding and defending us. Tommorrow and days to come, we will honour His glory, we will celebrate His blood. Amen
On the other hand 21 March 1960, 69 people were killed while protesting against pass laws in South Afrika. The pass laws were implemented on Afrikan people, limiting their movements in their own country. The Pan Africast Congress (PAC) organised the march, where by thousands of people were to gather outside police stations without their pass books, demanding the police to arrest them. In Sharpeville the matter got out of hand, the police fired to a the defenseless men, women and children. The number of the wounded goes up as to 300. A few months after that, the prime minister declared a state of emergency arresting thousands of people, increasing police and military presence in the townships and banning all the political organizations including the African National Congress(ANC) and the PAC
The international community was angered by the events of March 1960, adopting resolution 134(Urging SA government to abandon apartheid) and later removing SA from commonwealth of nations. The day became known amongst other names as The Heroes day and Sharpeville day. However after 1994 when we gained our freedom the day became known as the Human rights day. Today I salute the Heroes that participated on the march and also those that lost their lives for the cause of Human rights. We have not yet reach our destiny, but we shall Overcome.
Wishing everyone a Joyful Easter and a Heroic Human rights day.

Over the weekend
I was very lucky my weekend started on thursday. I was supposed to go to a funeral in Tzaneen, one of my uncles past away. May his soul rest in peace. Due to other technicalities and transport problems I could not go. I spent my friday night in church; youth service. It always delivers beyond expectation. I managed to hijack someone and convince us that a movie at night will be a good idea, we went an watch Fool's Gold. No strings attached, just a sister from church.
On saturday I was awaken by a phone call from a friend who wanted me to help them move house. I am not a courier! I did lend a hand, even though it took most of my time. I am now a member of Mboweni Development Assosciation(MDA) a society for the Mboweni clan living in Gauteng. I went to the first meeting. I am very impressed, there will be lot of fun in this. My intentions are clear to meet my brothers and sisters socialise at least once a month.
After the meeting I went to meet the three Th's Thabiso, Thabang and Thulani. As usual Thabiso made me wait for more than an hour at his complex. He finally arrives, but is reluctant to go to Thabang's. Thabang wanted us there. We arrived at Thabang's only to be greeted by grilled stake and wors, Our other friend was also there Chivas Regal. I always like the warmth of Thabang's family, for me the man is doing well.
In the company of Chivas, we chat about politics, sport, relationships and a whole lotta things. It was fun. We went back to Thabiso's after 12 mid-night, leaving Thabang and his family. And now Thulani finally joins us. We chat until the early hours of the morning.
In the morning I went back to my place, to get ready for church. AFM Sunnyside, at the moment there is no place I rather be. The church service was awesome. The sermon was about keeping our eyes on Christ. A very good teaching. After Church I went to watch a play at my kasi(Adopted) Atteridgeville hall. They delayed for about an hour, the play started at 15h00. While waiting I was watching small boys playing my favourate sport, not soccer but table tennis. I will join them very soon, I love table tennis.
The play did not disappoint, it was well organised. A lot of dance, a lot of song and good acting. The story line was a bit of a cliche' but I did not mind. The attendance was vey poor which I blame it on the organisers, it was badly advertised. Outside the hall, there was not even one poster. I saw the ad very far from the venue, due to my love for theatre I could not stay behind.
I don't have a luxury of sunday afternoon big-momma's lunch, I enjoyed my Spatlho with juice. My weekend became more fun when I saw Amakhosi demolishing the not so Free State stars. Five goal thriller, great!

I prepared supper for my house mates, mixed grill. I finished very late but the guys enjoyed it. The dishes are always a problem for me, luckily last week when I was in Durban someone was handling that. The dishes was the final scene for the weekend, went to sleep like an adult; peacefully.
The weekend was great, looking forward to this week.

NOW
There is a disturbing statement that persist in a lot of us; In my time. We constantly want to go back to the past. The past seems comfortable, the future seems terreble. While we keep ourselves busy with yesterday and tommorrow, our todays just pass without notice. The is precious gift that God has given us the present (NOW).
NOW is the time, Se kunjalo. I have a very special friend who inspires me about living in the present, about enjoying a NOW. Our todays may not be as pleasant as we want them to be, guess what? yesterday was as bad and tommorrow might not come. The only given time we have without a doubt is this day, this hour, this minute and this very second. We need to cherish the NOW, is the only time we have. The present is fading away.
Procastination is the thief that continously steals our todays, our present and our NOW. Living on past mistakes eats away the present. Let's all live in the NOW, when tommorrow comes it will find us still living in the present.

To the Girlfriends, with love
If I don't call you as much as I used to do
If I forget to pick you up
If I forget the very important dates of our relationship
If I don't take you out for a movie or dinner
It doesn't mean that I don't love you anymore.
I am a bit pre-occupied by the AFCON Ghana 2008.
All of this irregularities will only last for 20 days starting from yesterday.
I still love you.

Bring it home, Bafana Bafana!
I am no soccer expert and neither a soccer star. I don't want to dwell on the technicalties on how Bafana Bafana is going to be the African champions. I am going to be sentimental and patriotic about this one. We have a chance in winning it. Why? Because we are participating in the tournament.
I say to Bafana that rankings are just numbers. In the field the only numbers that apply are 11 against 11 finsh and klaar. As I bid our beloved soldiers farewell, I want to say to them that they are more than capable. In any team, it is not about the big-names in that team, it's about how inter-dependent they are on the field. It's about the ability to play as a team.
I wish the players and the technical team a safe journey to Ghana. When you get there, your mandate is to bring the cup home. We must show Afrika and the world that we are ready for 2010.
God bless you boys!
