When words flow.

When words flow I write, pen reflects my life. In this case binary codes, algorithms and auto-correct, If only life was as simple if only life was so pearfect, right-click perfect. I was given dominion over all this, but I feel like a minion losing control lost in the abyss. The void I cannot fill, am I paranoid am I ill? Just being me isn’t enough, just being here isn’t enough and even these words without action won’t be enough. Is writing this even necessary, is complaining even primary? Is my mind primitive or are the neurons in my Brain not yet active. I don’t need more I need to be more, I don’t want to walk I want to soar they sky. I feel sparks of greatness; I feel super one minute and Minute the other why bother? I want to be optimistic in my prime to be called Optimus Prime, I don’t want to be too tumultuous in my abilities and lose time.

Mind is sound

  mind is sound, voices depleted. an aggregation of feelings undescribed surfaces to the shore. unsure how, not sure why, for sure I notice , I know this, my heart is content as it leads my mind I focus, hocus pocus this cannot be games I do not play, love is the word I say, together is the only way we pray, an amalgamation of feelings once lost deep inside of ourselves, fears of being hurt deep inside of our shelves, we break free, freedom, seldom do we look back, seldom do we let the past attack, a future we must secure, the allure of a beautiful family, the adoration of the one You, two bodies one soul, our love imprisons us no Parole, our love burns us coal to coal. I am naked vulnerable to your touch, vulnerable to you look your beauty your smile, it is such that has brought me here it is such that brings me near an immaculate creation thank you, a blessing you are. I your moonlight you my star

IM me!!!

When I was in High school I had a crush on this pretty young lady who was in the same class as I. Shy as I was all I did was stare at her beauty hours on end. Everyone in the classroom knew that I had a crush. I wrote love letters that never made it to her. Rehearsed proposing to her all the time but I never made it to the stage. Then came our final year fortunately I got with her and a dance at the farewell party. A few years down the line my little brother goes through the same thing. Beauty has tamed the beast but fortunately for him all he has to do is get the lady's contact and chat his way to her heart. This is the new age Mass Communication has a whole new meaning. The words email and internet are commonly used. In South Africa there are over 39 million mobile subscribers which is 80% of the population. The days of visiting friends and making phone calls have come to an end.

These cages

I visited the Zoo this Sunday such a beautiful sight. I came to realise how beautiful nature is. There are many kinds/species of animals which fascinates me. Big and small it was a lovely outing. People were there with their families, couples also featured and the kids really had fun as they were running around all over the place. The mood is wonderful with people Braaing, drinking and having a good time. It’s also educative for the kids in that they learn about real life animals and ways in which to take care of them.

There other thing that i noticed, is that even though this is the only way some of us will ever get to see the king of the jungle from such a close distance. That these animals were caged they looked so lifeless. Wild Animals are meant to be in the wild. They have become objects they are not living the life they are meant to be living. I then started thinking that we are also caged. We have locked ourselves up behind social bars, financial bars, Religious bars and so forth. For most of us life has become a routine. We are trapped and caged in our own lives. Our lives full potential is not achieved. This is the situation as it is all under heaven (all animals us included) Conform to the same thing being enslaved. But then again the Animals at the Zoo didn't enslave themselves we put them there. Break the bars and relieve yourself from slavery. You have enslaved yourself you hold the key. You only have one chance one lifetime don't waste it.

I am generation now

This weekend was a Crazy one. First weekend of spring came with a bang. It’s now post the World Cup and i believe that the spirit is still alive. Business owners are loving it. Even after the recession people are spending like nobody's business "excuse the pun". I am from a small town called Atteridgeville west of Pretoria the Capital of South Africa. You could feel that the mood had changed to emulate the season spring, which is all about brightness and Colour. One thing that stuck on my mind this weekend was the way that the generation that comes after us live. As i roamed the street i saw teenagers from the ages of 10 to 18, running around with beer bottles and cooler boxes. Young girls were dressed inappropriately to say the least. My heart was broken at the realisation that our parents were right we are the lost generation. These are the leaders of tomorrow Politicians, Doctors and Policemen of our future. We are disgraced by their unthoughtful actions. How are they representing the youth of South Africa? I am disgusted i don't even know how to express my anger.

I am 24 years of age which technically means i still fall under the youth of today. A Politician, Doctor or Policeman of the future. Instead of pointing fingers at the younger generation for their actions. What am i doing to motivate them otherwise? What am i doing to uplift my community? If i myself am not contributing anything into my community than i am no better than they are. The lost generation is a title that suits me best. I am now the power is in my hands. The future lies in me. Let’s find our generation and leave a legacy that would make this world a better place.
