Life has no formula. There are no pieces that come ready as a puzzle for you to put together and result in a perfect image. Life throws pieces at you at random, pieces that don’t even go together, but you have to find a way to make it work. That’s why nothing in life is perfect, like a complete puzzle.

Everything on social media is funny until it hits home.
“We’re just playing” until your backyard is the playground.

You may think you know how someone feels based on what they’re going through because you probably went through something similar, but that doesn’t mean you understand because the circumstances may not necessarily be the same.

Judge less.
Understand more.

2024:

We made it to 2024
Hopefully, it will lead to many more.
I’m ready to explore
Just don’t knock me to the floor.

2024, It’s survival of the fittest
What are you fighting for?
I’m praying for strength like Thor
To face more inner wars.

2024, It’s election year
Who are you voting for?
Whoever it is, pray they open locked doors
But bear in mind that you hold the keys.

2023, although you hurt me to the core
I won’t forget how you opened some doors.
2024, I wonder what you have in store
Whatever it is, may it not leave me sore.

2024, I said I’m ready to explore
Just don’t knock me to the floor.
Don’t let my cup run dry
I’m willing to outpour some more.

Entertain my curiosity!

Everything that is man-made in our current world was once non-existent. For example, man-made objects used to perform religious, cultural, and traditional rituals didn’t exist once upon a time.

Before its inception, what was used in its place to perform these rituals?
Does this mean that the way we currently go about performing these rituals will completely change with new inventions in the future?

Kunabantu abanezinhliziyo ezimbi ngoba ngesikhathi bekhula, babona abazali babo bexhaphazeka ngenxa yezinhliziyo zabo ezinhle.

Kunabantu abanezinhliziyo ezinhle ngoba ngesikhathi bekhula, babona abazali babo benonya kwabanye abantu ngenxa yezinhliziyo zabo ezimbi.

Kuyenzeka futhi kube nabantu abanezinhliziyo ezimbi ngoba bakhula bebona abazali babo benezinhliziyo ezimbi kubona nakwabanye. Abalazi uthando.

Kuphinde kwenzeke futhi ukuthi kube nabantu abanezinhliziyo ezinhle ngoba bakhula bebona abazali babo benezinhliziyo ezinhle kubona nakwabanye. Bayalazi uthando.

Izimo owadlula kuzona ukhula zinawo umthelela kumuntu oba uyena uma usumdala. Zinamandla zokukwakha njengomuntu, ziphinde zibe namandla zokudibhiza. Konke kulele kuwe ekupheleni kosuku ukuthi ukuthatha kanjani.

Wafika wedwa.
Uzohamba wedwa.
Kodwa awuphili wedwa.

I’ve made a conscious decision not to use time as an excuse whenever I fail to get things done.

We always make time for what we really want to do. It’s all about getting our priorities in order and being unapologetic about them.

Do toddlers know that the person in the mirror
is a reflection of themselves?

A MAN MUST… :

As a man, how do you cope in a society that tells you to man up when you’re feeling down?
As a man, how does it feel when you don’t seem to have a plan?
As a man, how do you express your feelings when they say feelings are for the weak?
As a man, do you bite your tongue and bottle it up?
Or do you stand your ground and dare to open up?

“Man up! Man up! Man up! Don’t be a weak link.”
Now you’re scared to blink
Because you may shed a tear.
But tell me, who wouldn’t when they’re in despair?
Tell me, do you think society to men is fair?

They think men are stainless steel machines
Who must take care of everybody but themselves
Without feeling any physical or mental strain.
“A man should be this. A man must do that.”
But how do you do it all without it driving you insane?

Men are also human with real emotions
But do they seem to care?
Are they even aware?
Are you part of “they”?
Am I part of “they”?
