Honesty

There is one thing I cant run away from. That is MYSELF. I am an individual who is very weak when it comes to confrontations ( I am getting better) simply because I feel/think for others how will they be after I said or done what I needed to do after confrontation. Even saying NO is still a struggle for me. It is not good for me. I guess that 's one reason which made me not to continue playing soccer in elite level or any world where it involves anti-personal/emotional characters. There, is not… Continue

........... pointed a gun at me, Real SA

Since I was born I never saw a hole of the gun pointing at me until 09/Jan/2011, 12h56  when a middle aged white chap pointed a gun at us outside on the street in Honey Dew,  Johannesburg.  I hear people complaining or being victims of hijacks, theft etc by black people, but today it was vice versa. I ( and my new colleague Masi) were invited to a celebration party of black child  who got six distinctions from public school after a lengthy strike in 2010. As we went out after the amazing… Continue

Parenting

Everyday is sad in my work when I see kids, youth roaming around looking for home or place where they will feel loved and being appreciated. You name it, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, SA is all the same case. The solution is not to give that kid that money rather INVEST in social parenting skills and bring the affected parties together. The relationship and fellowship between the parents and children is very… Continue

A man who is being hungry for long

What will stop a man who has been hungry to show off or to have more material from corruption. This man has been hungry for long time. There is that void. Once a opportunity present itself where there is much money or material what will stop this man from taking this away from the poor. Is easy to be greedy when one grew poor/rich with no morals and take everything away from everyone to feel better or replace that void of pain of having nothing in a long time. This man has never has never…

Blaming/shifting responsibility

First downfall of a man. I keep looking at every moment and what I see everyday is US, people, going down or losing the battle simply of shifting responsibility or blaming the others and not realizing we are part of the solution and problem. I always refer to myself, because I am not outside the circle, with all the blunders and failures I had or successes. Victory starts within me once I realize that I am no better than others and realise that I need others and the above Man to live, we are…

EYES OF THE HEART

Love don't start with eyes, starts with the heart. Love deep down inside in order to have a CHANCE to make a CHOICE to make A CHANGE, SO MAKE A CHOICE TO LOOK WITH THE EYES OF YOUR HEART, let the light o f love lead the way, if we are all God's children the logic gets so simple, the one who you call a stranger is your brother.

SO LOVE EVERYONE JUST LIKE YOU LOVE YOUR SELF.

"We want to go and play"

I was deeply moved by the words of the New Editions FC Under 17, 15, and senior team when they said please dont buy food to eat rather pay us for transport so we can go and play a match on Saturday. I felt very embarassed and stupid after I thought it will be great get something to eat after a long day of soccer coaching clinic. I just started on reflecting on how easy is to project thoughts not thinking or consider what THEY need or think. How stupid is to think for others rather than coming… Continue

COMMITMENT & DISTRACTIONS.

Commitment is a pledge you make to do something or to behave in a certain way.sometimes we just don't feel like doing the work we need to do to reach a goal,we might even feel like no matter what we do,we're just not 'good enough' ( or clever enough,or strong enough,or talented enough ) to reach our target,when we find ourselves struggling to stay on track,we feel even worse about ourselves but we can stay committed by being… Continue
