The Marikana Massacre

The disastor that happened in Marikana proves that, South Africa still has a long way to go... Can you image, people who work in the mines, they sweat thier butts off for the wealth of this country day in day out, digging gold and minerals and the mine owners don't even have the decencey to appreciate them with a proper salary?

I don't even want to mention how these people died while striking for better salaries, in this recession who would appreciate earning R1 000.00 a month, can you imagine being a bread winner and yet earning that kind of money? What can you buy with such a small salary? The government seems to undermine the most important workers regarding the wealth of the country, yet these people work in dangerous conditions, earn close to nothing not forgetting thier residential places... when will things change? When will illiterate people get the same respect, treatment and resources as the rich and well connected people?

                                  

On the 16th of June 1976, students were fighting for thier education, so was the employees who died in Marikana, the police have the responsibility to protect, keep safe, enforce the law and arrest all those who commit crime, do they do that? NO! They rape women, hit men and now? Now they killed people, thirty four innocent people, just like the police in 1976. those people had the right to life and the police did not have the right to take those lives, just because they enforce the law it doesn't mean that they are above the law nor the people, and the did not even have the decency to apolise... We as South Africans. we need to stand up against police brutality, they abuse people way too much we need to take a stand. Yes they said there wasn't anything they could've done because these people were armed, don't COSATU and Municipal workers arm and damage property in the Joburg CBD? do they shoot and kill them? No, the pour water on them, so why kill these mine workers?

All the Head of police had to say was that the police had nothing else to do? Does she think she's God? did they give these people life just to take it away, just like that? South Africa has a long way to go, we need to take all the SAPS members back to school so they could remeber what it means to be in the SAPS, they think they own the country and they can do what they please with anyone, the massacre ruined the country's reputation, first it was the xenophobic attacks, now this this? this is not the democracy we vote for, that my forefathers fought for, it can't be!

They were parents, friends, brothers, lovers, workers and thier presence was important to people who knew them, not money in the world would replace them, no matter how expensive thier coffins may be or the amount of money that would be coughed up, every life is import and no one has the right to take thr life of another.

May the souls of the thirty four men rest in peace!

Love and Lust is the down fall of many...

Love is basically the validation that one is worth something in this world, if you not loved by the one person you bonded with before anyone knew your existence in this world, which is your mother really does live a big ass whole i your heart, the trueth is, we all want to be loved, rich, poor, fat or thin.

the ultimate victory in anyone's life is to find love, one may have money, lots of cars. expensibe clothes, jewellery and shoes but all in the end we want love, yes LOVE, why? you may ask because when you are loved you are wanted, there's a sense of warmth that is unexplainable you feel, life ain't so empty. Hence so many people have tried to define the four letter word but have'nt really found satisfaction, although we all know that its a feeling, an unexplainable feeling, it feels good, gives you a glow, a sense of belonging.

The truth is love ends or fades rather, although in my personal opinion I think we never really get over certian people we just find other people to think about,,, but what does one do when the LOVe is gone? start hating? scheme to plan the downfall of another? cry for days and shut yourself out of the world or simply stalk that person til he/she loves you back? the truth is you can never make some one love you no matter what you do, it will be totally up to that person to love and love the best way that they think they can not in a way that you want them to. the  resean LOVe has been the downfall of my is because we tend to have expectations of the other person without considering that the person we seek love from might not neccessarily return the love we give nor give us what we want in the exact form that we want the love returned.

The reason why LOVE is the downfall of my is because we give too much to people who wouldn't neccessarily give the same, had they had been in our situation. women often fall prey to men selfish men who buy them expensive clothes, cars, trips to the world and lead us to believe that they love us, make choose to be with them than with our friends, isolate us from family, all in the name of love, some women even give up thier dreams for men who leave them with children, STIs, the HIV virus, bitterness and trust issues... Who wants damged goods? No one! yet men continue to damage and take our innocence.

Say whatever you want, but LOVE is a losing game and if are not careful (not that you can control your feelings or measure how attached you can get) who you fall for and NEVER and I mean EVER turn your back on your dreams for a person in the name of love because LOVE fades and disappoints, trusst me I learned from the BEST!

Make-up Doesn't Cover Everything.

Society taught women that, make-up makes them beautiful, that is why sooo many women jut can not say uncovered with make-up. for that perception I blame the society as a a whole as well as that media \, because they too portray a picture that all the people on television are beautiful because of make-up.

Wanna hear my opinion? Here it goes, be warned, it wont be nice, true beauty comes from within, you are not beautiful from the inside than what the point of having a pretty face? we might as well call you just a no good for nothing elfih bitch. Yes I said it, BITCH. most people define a bitch as someone who sleeps around no that is a slut, a bitch is someone who finds joy in bringing people down, especially pretty people who've always had it easy than take it that they have to bully those who feel less confident about thier looks around as if they are thier slaves.

Ever heard the term "The prettiest people do the ugliest thing?", I don't entyirely agree with it nor disagree, pretty people do use thier good looks as an advantage everywhere and every opportunity they get and doing good to others will not only help you build instead of burning your bridges, you see make-up? make will never hide nor cover your guilty conscience nor hide the scars that gives you countless sleepless nights. Rather try something that wont fade so quickly, and do ber in mind that beauty too fades and while its still there.. hold on to ti because when its gone, people wont just see your ugly wrinkles but will laugh the hell out you since you stupid.

make-up is made to cover the outside not guilty concience you carry with you all day all, unless you'll swallow it of course.

Mr Perfect is as real as Batman or the Maskandi Artist who rose from the dead!

Ladies need to realise that there is no such thing as Mr Perfect, your man is a dog as all other men, he makes mistakes, enjoys beer, likes chilling with other men and probably does love you but preferes that you don't call him while his watching sport, especially soccer while his favourite team is playing, ask me how I know all this the question is, I've been around (chuckles).

Men are not all the same some are good but some are just dushbags, while some sure know how to hide their bad side, but eventually after a couple of months into the relationship reveal "that side". Don't get me wrong I'm not hating on men I loooove them, like really like having male figures around, but I've realised that they too in one way or another seek validity from women as much as women try to get as much acceptance from men. women boost male egos by giving compliments and appreciating little efforts they make to make women notice they care, take it from me, they aren't as confident as they pretend to be, they too look in the mirror and see all their imperfections, wish they could be held and make mistakes like every human being does.

Society and in one way or another our sisters, aunts, mothers and cousins haven't really given us young girls good examples when it comes to relationships, most women put with a lot of things that are unacceptable from men like abuse, be cheated on or mistreatment for money and emotional security than go around talking about the men in this as if they are perfect. News-flash we all know they are not, they make promises they can't keep, stand you up when you got ready for 2hours trying to look sexy for them, act like you are asking for too much when all you want is their attention, drink a lot and come home smelling cheap perfume... This things happen, men cheat, say insensitive things that truly hurt feelings, if you live your man, where are you going to find the perfect one?

There's no such thing as a perfect man, you just have to find yourself a man who loves your good side and loves you despite your faults, not all men are bad you just need to stop looking in all the wrong places for relationships, you wont find a husband in a club all you'll get is a one-night-stand that will leave upset and all alone. if he's nice don't assume he likes you, some people date when they are bored.

Lies! Lies! Lies!

A lie is a deliberately false statement, or a statement intended to deceive- whether or not it is literally true. once you start lying you have to lie over and over again to cover up the previous lie, some say they lie to protect the ones they love honestly speaking a lie is nothing but deciet and it sets people aback.
People lie about thier ages, where-abouts, thoughts, true feelings and thier past, to me keeping quiet about a matter you knew very well that concerns me is as good as lying because it means you intentionally with-held the truth from me.

White lies are minor lies which could be considered to be harmless, or even beneficial, in the long term. White lies are also considered to be used for greater good. A common version of a white lie is to tell only part of the truth, therefore not be suspected of lying, yet also conceal something else, in order to avoid awkward questions.An exaggeration (or hyperbole) occurs when the most fundamental aspects of a statement are true, but only to a certain degree. It is also seen as "stretching the truth" or making something appear more powerful, meaningful, or real than it actually is.

To bluff is to pretend to have a capability or intention one does not actually possess. Bluffing is an act of deception that is rarely seen as immoral when it takes place in the context of a game, such as poker, where this kind of deception is consented to in advance by the players. For instance, a gambler who deceives other players into thinking he has different cards to those he really holds, or an athlete who hints he will move left and then dodges right is not considered to be lying (also known as a fient or juke). In these situations, deception is acceptable and is commonly expected as a tactic.

One thing is for sure we all lie, we different reasons for doing so but lie and lie and lie! lol

Mother's Love

Sunday the 13th of May 2012 marks a very important day in the entire year, Mother's Day. Gives such as perfume, cakes, dresses, slippers chocolate and pyjamas were flying off the shelves last week by people preparing for Mother's Day, a day for all the care-givers and lovers for every child.

However to some people Mother's day was just another bitter reminder of the one person they were missing in their lives, be it due to death, distance or being irresponsible, whatever the case is it must hurt. I rally don't think that there is anyone who doe's need mother's love, attention being nurtured knowing that there is someone who loves you unconditionally and her daily job is to worry about your safety and health really does put things at ease and gives one that incredible feeling that's unexplaineable.

A mother, a mother is someone who takes care of her child, who worries, knows about the well-being of her child ans spend time getting to know and understand her child, not some lady who only supports the Lil kid financially, takes her pics and goes and brags to her friends just how much her nanny "ill-treats" her child's despite the salary and all the food you buy in the house. I', not talking about the women who only carried their children for nine months and than gave them up to whoever just as long as they wont be left to take responsibility, or just leave them to their parents to raise and groom them. If you don't want to take care of your children who do expect to take of them? who are you expecting to take your place? Yes that rich thin lady with expensive perfume may take your place but she wont fill your void in his/her heart.

Please don't make poverty your excuse, pap and cabbage has never killed anyone, didn't you grow-up eating that diet? look at you... you are all grown up. You've developed in time, got teeth, went to school and you can think logically, so why rob your child the opportunity of being loved for a man you wanna keep, for beer you'll urinate at the end of the day, for fake friends that don't really like you? Come on, you were old enough to open your legs for a man be old enough to raise a child too, even if he denied fathering him, how many kids grow up without fathers?

Be a mother a source of strength for the gift God gave you, you'll never know if he/she will be troublesome or not but with all the love and care from a mother a child never go astray.

Who Said Skinny is Pretty?

Lets face it, fat kids always get teased, are not really popular or have really serious self-esteem problems which leads them into eating more and getting even more fatter. Society too doesn't give fat or chubby children a break, they portray them as ugly and unadorable babies that no one should like or associate themselves with. While the skinny children with long hair get all the attention and start teasing the "fat and chubby".

Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning the fact that most children eat lots of unhealthy and fattining foods that lead them to grow immaturely or way too fast... These kids are going through puberty around the age of 9 or 10, and I thought puberty was for teenagers #RollingEyes#. I'm not saying that it entirely okay for children to indulge in chocolate and sweets all day all but doing that every once a while wont hurt, making children to be aware of healthy and unhealthy foods at a young age is very wrong but feeding them with ideas that their bodies aren't perfect and what's perfect from a tender age in really ruining the childhood of your baby. The world has enough magazines, newspapers and advertisements with lifeless skinny girls with pale skin and blonde hair for heaven's sake.

Who the hell said that skinny is pretty?? These people starve themselves for days and deprive themselves of foods that they enjoy. they are always weighing themselves in weighing scales, buying jeans jeans that don't fit just so they could lose even more weight, now that is not a very fulfilling life! Society portrays peoples bodies as if it whats makes them, maybe in the entertiament industry not in the office. Basically my whole point is that, no matter what size you are be it size 6, 8, 10 or even 16, rock your size with pride, wear clothes that fit, comb your hair, have attitude and move that body as if you were walking in the world's biggest run-way and you were the show-stopper model for Alexander McQueen. Don't let people deprive of your happiness nor having a good time, a chocolate every once in a while wont hurt but staying healthy all the time Will help you live longer.

We all have insecurities but we are part of the society, we should try change what the society portrays as beautiful or ugly, to be honest no one whats to be ugly, but beauty is hard-work so BE YOURSELF! All the time.

P.S
Chubby and Loving It!
