I love South Africa, ALL her people & it is my fervent wish that we make SA a workable scenario, for every citizen.
In my corner, I am hard at work with initiatives towards that goal.
The EFF is like your cousin who dropped out of varsity, is unemployed, but the only one who can disagree with your rich uncle from Sandton. You like him for bringing balance, but you would never let him lead the family.
It’s 18 years since my siblings passed, today my brothers friends visited my mom, she is so happy.
What kind of man must you be, that 18 years after you have left, your friends still visit your mom?
Our helper is back, I think she is telling us we have messed up her house, moving everything & sweeping under, returning everything to where she thinks it should be. I am so scared, I might just get kicked out!
I cooked for the guy I just had a meeting with & I, so I offered, he politely declined, “my wife cooks lunch for me now that we work from home”.
I love it! Her love language. His respect for her. I love these Black Guys who are just delivering
I had 3 goals this year & I did not complete any of them & I am not mad, instead I am humbled. No matter how hard working & smart you are, some things just take time.
So, be gentle with yourselves beloved, know that whatever was not accomplished this year, there is next year.
Now You Father, finish this work You have started, I commend him to You that You might do a perfect thing as only You can. Bless him walking in & walking out, cause him to multiply. Let him change the entire family, because You can. Amen.
You have seen the picture now know the story behind it
23-year-old Dumisani Ngobese could not hold back tears after he was conferred with a Bachelor of Arts degree at a ceremony held at the UKZN’s Westville Campus on Friday.

Uber has becoming untenable for me, yesterday my trip moved from 3 to 15 minutes waiting time, then it went “no cars available”.
@Uber
please could consider removing the ability for drivers to see the value of the trip?
This is really not working for us customers.
Do not get married, unless your love includes generosity. If you count things & call them “Mine”, jola nje & relax. If you are generous, then even the prenuptial agreement is to protect your partner, not to keep them out of your success. It is to protect them from your risks
It literally costs at most, less than R5000 to register an antenuptial contract. Marriage in community of property should never be the hill you’re willing to die on.
The worst vote for any Black Person:
1. DA
2. ActionSA
3. BOSA
4. Arise Mzansi
Just forget these & choose from a slew minority & majority interest parties.
Why is it that when you guys borrow money, it must be appreciated that it’s an emergency, so no planning required on the part of the lender. But when you must return it, the lender must wait for you to plan & be in the healthiest financial state?
Do you not see selfishness?
My 16 year old has her 1st client in her nail business
Me: did you check if we have juice?
Her: yes we have dad
Me: ok, must I go buy muffins or croissants?
Her: No, we can’t over invest, then we won’t make any money.
I think we headed in the right direction.
Ladies who work in retail or their friends & family please pass on message, we are dads to girls, we buy sanitary pads & stuff, please, we not looking to discuss it at the till, just swipe it past like you did the cooking Oil.
I am always amazed by how God conspires to help, I met a bright guy in a taxi, he told me a story & I helped. The funny part is had not been in a taxi in years, it just so happened that on the day I decided to attend the 2nd service & let the kids take the car. God will find you.
Telling "Middle Class" people not to buy property because of "high interest rates" must be the most irresponsible thing.
Middle & lower income must as soon as they qualify, because if you track over the last 50 years, property does not get cheaper.
I have a 4 year old Dinosaur expert in the house & I know nothing about them! “Dad, let’s run a ntazingasaurus is chasing us” ok, I am jumping into the pool! “No dad, it is Amphibious”.
Cela siyeke tu, ngikhathele my son.
People sat gossiping about a person I know yesterday at Marble, they sounded close to said person, me I called, told her, then took a pic so she knows exactly which demon goes around gossiping about her.
Gents, forget everything said by ladies posturing on Twitter about money & relationship codes.
Get yourself the girl you like, find out what she likes, loves & wants.
Do that.
End.
The ANC position on Palestine was not to attract votes, it was a glorious moment where ANC was true to itself.
That those who say they stand with Palestine, then went on to vote DA, that is for themselves to contend with, if they are capable of some introspection.
This morning I was thinking about how I used to go sleep over at my various bosses homes when we had to catch early flights or be at StatsSA in Pretoria, early morning.
I lived in Soweto, no license no car, but they saw something in me & I put in the work.
I am grateful
Affirmative Action does not mean you won’t get a job on merit.
It means that someone who over looks you & picks a race different from yours all the time, must account as to why their company’s demographic’s don’t match those of the country.
Don’t be shamed over nonsense.
A sister got stuck, petrol, I went & helped, drove her to the garage, helped to get the car start again, this whole time I dared not introduce myself or seem over familiar. I had to be extra open, extra small & 0% threatening the entire time. I hope it gets better with us soon.
@tembisa_J
It is very rare for equals in monetary terms, to find each other, you must find the thing that the other person brings, that you don’t have. You bring the Pap & I bring the Meat & we have a meal. & I must never remind you that Meat costs more
Beloved, start new things, go in to industries you did not train for, but there is a hard proviso, when you come in, your fresh perspective is not enough, work very hard to know the game, out work/think everyone.
Good Luck!
Dear
@WOOLWORTHS_SA
The big plastic salt/pepper grinders,they near impossible to open & refill. The other day I took one to the shop, thinking they could teach me, no one got it right. Please make them screw on just like the small glass ones, please. Too much plastic waste.
Twitter in SA is creating a class of false, peace time revolutionaries. A bunch that has no care for facts or history, only an insatiable appetite to write themselves into history.
Yesterday a beautiful lady made her move on me, I was so excited, thinking it’s my being Tall, Dark & Handsome. So we spoke, turns out over 5 years ago, I was nice to her at some restaurant & it made a mark. But between you & I, I am sticking to Tall, Dark & Handsome. 🤣🤣
As you praise Adele’s PR Machine, remember:
1. Respect PR & put back budgets
2. Not every person who worked at some Media House is a proper PR person
3. PR is not an Event, Social Media or Interviews. It is a considered strategy, to meet key consumers in multiple segments
7 Gaslighting Phrases Malignant Narcissists, Sociopaths and Psychopaths Use To Silence You, Translated
1. You’re crazy/you have mental health issues/you need help.
2. You’re just insecure and jealous
3. You’re too sensitive/you’re overreacting
I am glad that SAA being stolen is getting some attention, may it be such a big story that it threatens ANC prospects in the upcoming elections.
We can’t have such brazen corruption allowed, the dots must connect.
This “My ancestors wildest dream”, I dislike it. You will find that the grace you have, is a slight portion of what was given to your grandparents & it flowed to you. Your Gogo, the one who never went to school, was way smarter than all your colleagues with their MBA’s
To Entrepreneurs, a lie that success, money tells you is that you will always be making more, it’s not true, lean times come, losses come, when the Sun is shining, kill all debt & build your house on solid ground, never sand, it shifts
I have been looking for a few things, images & stories of SA, pre 94, they are no longer there. It seems SA starts ‘94 on internet search engines
I think someone is naughty & busy whitewashing SA History on the internet, soon Apartheid will be extremely obscure.
My child, No.5, was meant to job shadow a luminary, well, it has turned into an interview, live on radio & she is interviewing.
She opened with Gregory Porter, soon as I heard it, I I knew it was a shout out to me. She called it “music that my siblings & I grew up to”.
I’m done
Talking about making strangers happy, this one time at Paranga I saw these young girls who were a bit nervous & were clearly exploring from Kasi. Asked a waiter to tell them they won a competition, they were customers number 1 million & their lunch would be on the house.
Andre de Ruyter when got the CEO job, promised to fix the problem in 18 months, he failed for 3 years & then he tells us the problem is ANC people call each other Comrade, how did that prevent him from doing his job?

Two things:
1. It is that deep, if you leave your house, taken to some place by the App, it’s very deep when you standing outside at 23:30 & no one picks up your trip.
2. The Business is entirely built for the customer, so that the business can take money from the customer.
I dream of a renewed Joburg CBD, Hillbrow, Berea, Yeoville.
Because my, these areas are so beautiful.
Imagine Small Street as a High Street/Diamond Mile with chic cafe’s?
AboMalume benu, the ones aba hlala eSandton, many of them have built their success by being proponents of such. They don’t believe that Blacks can & must own enterprise. To them, Black in Business = Corruption.
They are very expensive for the Black collective.
This EFF that gave their vote to DA, asking nothing in return, but the satisfaction of ousting the ANC.
That EFF, now today says ANC can’t talk to DA, for reasons of Black Unity & you guys buy that?
MK, IFP & others, may approach ANC for Black Unity, not EFF.
State true reason
I want a Xhosa side chick, all I will do with her is ukuteketisa qha! As she walks towards me in a room full of people ndithi “Nansi into yami makwerini! U phopho. U roro! Ma Ro! Lololo!” 🤣🤣
Done, enjoy Sunday Lunch & remember, avoid people who always have snide remarks whenever you have the misfortune of them on your TL.
Remember, baya gowa in real life.
I pray peace upon all of us. I pray that anxiety does not get the better of us. I pray that as we scale our lives way down, staying at home, we might make the experience an enriching one, not one to endure. I pray for great mental wellness, for parents & kids. Amen
To have a shot at being happy with a partner, be happy with yourself, forgive yourself, do the work. The more you have issues with yourself, the harsher you judge others. Give yourself a real shot, deal with you.
Life will take you through very hard, painful periods, please, do the following:
1. Recognize those who help you
2. Thank them, pray for them, bless them.
3. Never forget them
It's tempting to play hero & victim, the "I" syndrome, resist, don't lie & say you were alone.
I am starting early today because of the Ox Tongue I tell myself, but in truth, it is the anxiety of of this fillet & its accompaniments. You see, I am going to attempt to cook a meal that the love of my friends life used to cook, a tall order
@SbuMpungose
No man!!! Eish, condolences to your family, she gave us a beautiful illustration of 1. It’s never too late to free your talents. 2. Live up to the very last minute of your life, do not go gently, rage! May her soul rest in peace
Sometimes they hate you because when they were most vulnerable, you were there, stood by them & helped, so because they want to erase that memory, they can’t hold the duality of weakness & power living in them,then they must erase you, along with the memory of when they were weak
I must say, thanks to the Pandemic, we are spared of tacky campaigning in the ANC, no convoys of fancy cars & bikes driving through squalor. No club after parties where tables are sold for thousands.This election has room only for key messages & action the voters yearn for.I like
One of the best things you can do with money & influence is to step in when people are at critical points in their lives. A “here is something for the next 6 months, don’t give up yet” or “Your skills are here, leave that for now, come work with me on this”. Make a difference
A question was asked: What are you grateful for in 2018, tough question on an extremely challenging year. Days later, I found my answer. I am grateful for my unending stream of gratitude deep inside me, on the worst of days I would thank God for life, the first & greatest gift.
