Whats next?

"there is always time to do what is right"
http://quotes-lover.com/picture-quote/there-is-always-time-to-do-what-is-right/

Today signify the end of my 2012 academic year. Finally, I am done and dusted with all school work and whats next?

Indeed its not an easy question to answer considering that Professor Narvan Bachan has already denied me an opportunity to further my education (pursue M-Tech) due to lack of two years full time work experience in the same field. Then whats next? I seriously have no idea. Its true I can never go back and change what has been said and done but I can always learn the lesson to make things better next time.  My plan was to stay in Cape Town for two or more years but this has ruined all my plans, I have to move on, probably its for the best. Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. However, I haven't lost hope yet. I still believe that I will register with this institution next year. On the other hand, I have already contacted other institutions and they are willing to enrol me, but moving to another province will drain me financially and psychological.

Furthermore, I'm please with my stay in Cape Town, I have gained strength, courage and confidence thus am proud to say "I can handle the next thing that come along eloquently." Anyways, God is the greatest planner, I just implement his ideas. Consequently, I'm looking forward to the next challenge.

Apologizing

"Apology heals all wounds"
http://www.quotesbuddy.com/quotes/apology-quotes/

At times there may arise a situation when our actions may hurt the feelings of our beloved ones. But as fast as we realize our mistakes we take the initiative to correct the situation and win their heart back. Apologising is something we do because we care about the other person's feelings.

An apology is the super glue of life. It can repair just about anything. Sometimes we may say or do things that we don't intent to. Our behaviours sometimes may not find the consent of our loved ones. These can lead to rifts within relationships. If you feel that what you have done isn't right and unknowingly have the feelings of your closed one then swallow your pride and seek apology. However, never apologize for something you didn't do wrong. Never apologise just to make the second person happy. An apology must convey your heart felt remorse.

At times we are too proud to recognise our mistakes or too afraid to accept our faults. But not apologising can cause us lose the precious relation. Don’t hesitate to ask forgiveness when you are sorry. Say it with an apology messages. Just pour your heart out on it and if the person loves you he/she will understand your feelings and accept your apology.

There are some things in life that may come easy but most things worth having or achieving will only come with dedication and tenacity to get it. My educational achievement for year 2012 did not come easy I may say. It was a combined effort of myself, my family, lecturers, colleagues and friends.

Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to all who supported me through out the year more especially, His Majesty King Mswati III for his continued financial support. My beloved aunt Her Royal Highness Princess Kwatiwako, my mother Sbonisiwe Mngomezulu for making sure that I have all I need to pursue my education endeavour. I cannot forget my younger sister Nonkululeko for her continues support and checking on me during my first months in Cape Town. I cannot leave friends who  played a major role in rebuilding my inner personality and for advises and courage both academically and in general life. On the other hand my academic success wouldn't be possible without my beloved lecturers Professor Narvan Bechan, Dr Elsabe Pepler, Marian Pike, Deidre Porthen, Jourbet Stefan, Miss Thabisa Nonzube and Rudolf Van Jaarsveldt. I honestly thank you for your guidance, assistance with queries and positive encouragement throughout the year.

Lastly, I thank all my colleagues for their patience in me more especially the guys I worked with through out the year Sheppard Botya, Thembela Lubelo, Athenkosi Tofile. My sisters, Nontado Nkuna, Msizo Dlambulo, and umkhaya Zandile Mcinziba. It wouldnt be fair if I leave my Public Relations Open day group Hanley Catlin, Majiet Rikki, Wagbafor Precious and Medjo Obam Parly Juliette.

Indeed it was great knowing and working with you, I truly appreciate your efforts. Furthermore, may I take this opportunity to express my gratitude for being part of my academic success and wish you the best in your academic, professional and private life too. You will always occupy a special place in my heart.

My last leacture



"Embrace the gift of life"
http://www.actsweb.org/wordsofinspiration/gift_life.php



My last lecture is simple. I guess looking back at my past articles you might already know what am going to talk about, 'Life'. love life, it is important, it is valuable, like diamond and gold.

I wish I had so much space and time to write about this but as a simple person I will rap it like this. Don't be afraid to be who you are. Don't keep yourself from expressing love, Kindness, and patience. Don't cut yourself from the things that nourish your soul. Live in the spirit of life. There are no wall to keep you captive. You are as beautiful as you choose to be. Never let anyone undermine your intelligence, we are all equally intelligent in different ways. Furthermore, make use of the resource that are at you disposal to create a better future  for yourself and the country as well. Remember no good life can be lead without some bad days too. However, an idle mind is a devil's playground and all that is reality was once but a dream. Thus think good and practise right.

My last words would be to encourage you to love the Lord with all your heart, soul and body. Make use of all you have to create a better relationship with your creator.

How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

 


"Year of direction"

If I did not know how old I am, then I will be the same age as I am now. What can change that? A number doesn't change anything but the years spent on earth determine how old I am, whether I have an idea or not, I will still be the same age. For Example, lets say I'm 26 years old but I don't know. I will still be the same age.

If I had never know my age, it wouldn't matter or be an important thing to me. I will be enjoying life and forgetting about the responsibility that the people would have expected from me. Sometime the community expect you to behave differently when you are old but they are not always consistent with their expectations. For example; when a rich old man behaves like a 7 year old kid, they assume he is right. On the other hand when a poor person act the same way, they persecute him. Consequently, I would behave in a way that I feel is right at that particular time. However, by this time I would assume I'm about to reach 35 years old. looking at things ,I have already completed my B-tech degree and soon to enrol for my M-tech, then straight to work. By 35 years I would have expected the best of my living days, like having a family, good job and very much independent.

After all if I did not know my age, I would look at other people of the same sex and of known age and compare myself with them.

My side of the story



"car beyond repairs"

I believe its time I tell my side of the story.  I have waited so many years to tell my side of the story. In 2007 when I got the car accident the media in Swaziland wrote so many things and family members saying what ever pleases themselves. Today, for the first time I break the ice.

Indeed I can not justify myself in the accident. Fair enough accidents do happen to everyone. Once you behind the steering wheel anything is possible, mark my words. Unfortunately on my side I was caught into the dellima of drinking and driving as I was intoxicated, certainly not drunk because I took only few glasses of wine. Furthermore did not stop in a police roadblock. The last time I checked the speed meter I was driving between 90 and 100 km/h.  Consequently, one kilometre from the roadblock I lost control of the car while trying to overtake a red sedan in a corner. Actually, I run ontop of bumpy barriers which hit hard the left tire and it busted that when I lost control of the car thus hitting the guard rails and overturned.

I swear by the Almighty God that anything more than what I have written today is a lie. You can say what ever you want to say and believe what ever you want to believe but this is the truth. However, I am very disappointed at my family because they all choose to listen to the media except my brother.  Life goes on. I will continue to live my life to the fullest without any regreats and may the almighty guide and protect me.

You did not know me


This article was composed by me 2009 but today am grateful to publish it.

"Future"

 You did not know me;
You did not understand me;
because you were not interested,
because you did not care;
Education is key to me'
It is my first priority.
I love education
I love being independent.
                                      You thought I was a drunkard;
                                      You thought I was a failure,
                                       Because u did not know me.
                                       Because you wanted to destroy me
                                       Incline your ears,
                                       Open your eyes and you will see who I am.
Soon you will wish the mountains swallow you,
You will wish you were never born
You will wish to die but death will run from you,
You shall watch as the son of man rises
like sunrise, with great power.
The rivers shall sing praises,
and the leaders of the Kingdom shall tremble with fear.
                                        You did not know me.
                                        A wise leader has regained his power
                                       Kindness, Peace and Love is with him forever.

Help me God.
