Waves Of Turbulent Waters Art

Waves of turbulent waters art, by Isaac Khonjelwayo. Isaac has not exhibited his works before except in his house in Diepkloof Soweto to try attract interested art lovers and buyers, poor attendance made him retreat from his sacred pastime love of drawing. In the meantime he continued to draw until he felt the climate was conducive for him to start exhibiting.

Mr. I. Khonjelwayo contributed a collection of his large paintings as a donation to ANC comrades who skipped the country in 1976 to settle in Botswana. His paintings went on auctioned to raise funds in Botswana’s Russian Embassy. A group of South African ANC and PAC comrades had to skip Botswana from South Africa’s notorious BOSS (Bureau Of State Security) which pursued and hunted all political activists to be brought back to the country to face persecution or torture.

The theme of this album is called “Waves of turbulent waters” these were the early days of my art works from 1975 to late 80’s. Life in South Africa was tough and bitter-sweet even though a majority of political organizations were banned.

I was caught in the cross roads not too sure of my direction in art. Nevertheless I was also interested in woodcarving and sculpture, I wish I had spend enough time on wood carving, but somehow lost interest. These art works represent my unconscious effort to try paint anything that came to my mine.

Now, that the country is free, there is poverty and depression which has lead to the decline in Job Opportunities for our youth. Communities have been displaced since the current ruling party "The ANC", was unable to rule and create jobs. Crime is high, and people and children need HELP and caring. Corruption in government is high and service delivery collapsing.

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 ...

The Melody of Breath is Only Limited to His Grace Enjoy Yourself While it Last

Ladies and gentlemen, seekers of wisdom and truth, In the realm of existence, where the ethereal dance of life unfolds, there exists a divine blessing so profound, so often overlooked, yet so wondrously essential – the blessing of breath. Allow me, in the spirit of Giving, to illuminate this sacred gift, this divine elixir that courses through our veins, connecting us to the very essence of existence. Behold, the breath, like a gentle zephyr, is the invisible tether that binds us to the universe's eternal rhythms. It is the manifestation of life's continuous symphony, a dance choreographed by the cosmos itself. As God might have said, " Breath is the music of our souls, the melody that harmonizes with the heartbeat of the universe ." Consider, for a moment, the first breath that graced your existence. In that singular, exquisite inhalation, you received the universe's gift of life. It was as though the cosmos whispered to you, " You are a part of this grand t...

Mzansi - Allegory of the Broken Crown

 Allegory of the Broken Crown In the beginning, South Africa was carved as a jewel from the bones of the earth. Her rivers were veins of gold, her mountains altars of stone, her people the chorus of a thousand tongues. She was crowned with promise, a queen among nations. But thieves crept into her palace. They wore the robes of leaders, yet their hands were stained with hunger for power. They feasted at her table, not as guardians but as gangsters. They drank her wine, squandered her treasures, and laughed as her children starved. The crown slipped, not because it was stolen, but because it was neglected. The Parliament became a theatre — a hall of mirrors where questions were asked but never answered. The mayor, the ministers, the councillors: all actors in a play where accountability was a ghost. The people watched, weary, knowing the script by heart. The interrogations were rituals of smoke, not fire. Yet beneath the rot, the prophets whispered. They saw two futures: The Gangste...

City of Johannesburg Money Laundering Schem

 City of Johannesburg Money Laundering Schem The Futility of Interrogations.  When parliament summons a mayor like Dada Morero to “account” for billions written off, it performs a ritual more than a reckoning. It is theatre: the appearance of oversight without the substance of consequence. In a system where corruption rarely leads to removal, prosecution, or restitution, the interrogation becomes a hollow drumbeat — noise without rhythm. The lesson the mayor learns is not accountability, but endurance: how to sit through questioning, how to deflect, how to survive until the next scandal eclipses the current one. The Nation’s Lesson South Africans watching this charade absorb a bitter truth: corruption has become normalized, qualifications are irrelevant, and loyalty to party outweighs competence. The nation learns cynicism, resignation, and distrust. The image projected to the world is of a country where governance is a masquerade, where municipalities are staffed by the unqua...

From Jungle to Paradise: Cultivating a Thriving South Africa for All

Introduction: The metaphors of "jungle" and "garden" aptly capture the current state and desired future of South Africa. A nation brimming with diverse potential, yet entangled in challenges, needs a transformative approach to unlock its true potential. This essay draws inspiration from "From Jungle to Garden: Transforming South Africa's Diversity into Productivity" while tailoring it to a broader vision: creating a "paradise" for every value-adding individual. Beyond Manifestos: Understanding the Human Soil Manifestos alone are insufficient. We must delve deeper, analyzing the quality of individuals attracted by each party and their citizen empowerment programs. This is crucial, for a fertile "garden" requires diverse, skilled, and engaged citizens. International Investment: Nourishing the Growth South Africa's journey to paradise cannot be undertaken alone. International financial investment is vital, but simply attracting ...

Help And Advise Can Come From Any Corner

Life is a School created by God for people to learn from each other. Each person belongs to a different class and standard and each person will have parents, friends, acquaintances or associates and the church to guide them through various stages of personal challenges in order to grow. The process of personal growth for each person alive will comprise of 6 phases or areas of life that form the basis and foundation for overcoming life's obstacles and individual tests assigned by Angels to ensure each one complies and abides by divines rules and laws of nature before we pass on to the next world. God will place people around us as advisers, personal coaches, teachers, friends good or bad and parents as resources to get around some of the difficult passages. The only differences between people who succeed in life and those who fail completely is the following. "When you get stuck on the road without a wheel spanner or spare tyre in your car - raise your hands or red flack ...
