Empty Handed The Next Day

In softness the spirit is hard
and in hardness there is no
spirit that is soft!
Tough life is God’s love
God’s love is life on the verge!
If life is earned in good faith
and through honest hard efforts

Success and Rewards should be
celebrated with the same spirit
without trying to steal from the Creator!
Our greatest moments on earth
are best expressed and remembered
through our native silent language
Our tears of joy!
To know we can over-come

To be grateful that we are humans
is to honour the confidence of Archangels
who bestowed upon us with the crown to be
Kings and Queens of this creation
With this responsibility we should
act and respect the part that we play
Lest we perish empty-handed the next day
And disgrace the titles and names we carry
on our heads and shoulders

Be a responsible leader and account
for your good and bad deeds
Other smaller species in creation
and citizens in dire need look up to you
for inspiration, guidance and protection
Allow the legacy and footprints of your
Kingship to speak for itself!
To remind us of how you applied your wisdom
to rule and share the wealth of your country with your people

Naturena P. School Urgent Call for Action: Ensuring Safety and Order in Our Neighborhood

Dear Naturena Primary School, Principal, Parents, JMPD, Councillor, SGB, and School Transport Drivers, I pen this letter with a heavy heart and a sense of urgency, imploring all stakeholders to heed the call for immediate action regarding the safety and well-being of our community, particularly around the vicinity of Corner Vesting and Malta Streets NATURENA near the UJ student residences . For far too long, our neighborhood has been plagued by a myriad of issues that compromise the safety, cleanliness, and tranquility of our surroundings. For years now, concerned residents and parents have been raising alarm bells regarding the chaos and disorder that ensue during peak hours, especially in the mornings and after school hours. The situation has reached a tipping point, with our streets congested by school transport vehicles, children left vulnerable to potential accidents, and our once-pristine gardens littered with refuse and discarded sweets. If You Were In My Shoes - Would'nt ...

South Africans Are The Only People To Decide The Fate of Our Politics

South Africans Are The Only People To Decide The Fate of Our Political Landscape… We need a different plan for South Africa all together, to create an equal opportunity and fair distribution of wealth and job opportunities for all our legitimate citizens. Those who are in positions of power and authority should do something right for the first time for the country and alter the cause of history in the hands of the failing ANC. We can conform to complacency and become redundant as a people; or we can begin to challenge convention – through an intelligent conversation or; we can move against the grain to save the country from calamity, corruption and junk status – even let it R.I.P. Is The Country S.A. Also Part Of The Curse By The Gods? This means we become a replica of Zimbabwe and those ailing African States that are facing similar challenges of leadership malnutrition to visual impairment to read the future and save themselves from their own self-engineered demise. The...

Connect Your Congregation With Your Radio Podcast

Churches in South Africa will sooner or later be forced to join the Audio Streaming Mobile Technology if they want to keep their Gospel and Religious Teaching business alive. When Nigerian churches and pastors came to South Africa, likes of Pastor Chris of " Christ Embassy " they changed and took the landscape of religion and preaching to a different level. Old School Churches in the townships lost charm in their message and to their core religious teachings and they paid a price to fill and keep their benches full and members coming to their churches. Their buildings became half-empty and ghost like silhouette of a lost cause. These are the likes of; The Anglican church, The Roman Catholic, Presbyterian, Nazareth to name just a few and other common popular mainstream churches of our time. These churches became dinosaurs and monuments of history that was fading fast in the pages of time. People Want Spiritual Knowledge & Not Religious Indoctrination Yet, today...

PAPE, i.e. Portfolio Art Posters Exhibition is one of my initiatives.
