Guys guys! I always get ur inboxes and I see how some of you wanna give up. Life is journey and no one promised us that things will be free. I wanna share this story with you and I hope you dont cry because normally I dont finish telling it as it makes me cry. I cant hold back my tears when I share. This is a true story and it happened to me. This is not one of the stories I always write. And am not ashamed to share it. Poverty knows me by name. I lived it but most importantly it was just renting and now I showed it exit. This is long but take ur time and read it. I come from the poorest family. I didnt grow up normally like bana ba ka next door. The biggest house I know its mud hut house.(roundavel ya mabu). In 2000 during floods in SA I was sleeping on the floor next to my late dad. Our house was so wet that it could collapse any tym. But we slept in it. About midnight we had some funny sounds. I woke up my dad. We clothed up to go out and check. You wont believe it. As we stepped on the door the whole house fell inside. Inches away from death. I survived death. Inches away. I will never forget it. My family became a laughing stock. I could not face my friends nor go to school for whole month. I was traumatised. I feared even just to sleep in brick house. I had nightmares always thinking it may fall anytime. We had to go and stay ko ga rakgolo. Funny enough when I went back to school some teachers made fun about it. I lost my dad when I was doing grade 10. I stayed alone. But I didnt stop to go to school. My sister dropped out to make means for us. I passed with flying in grade 12. Nobody ever said to me a re congrats. It didnt bother me. I went to varsity. I didnt afford a room. But I hustled. I was staying with Mahlatse Morifi and Thabo Morifi . It was hard mfana. Sometimes we would motepa and go to study. But I persevered. I had better reasons than most of you to give up. Guys am not trying to make you feel small. I maybe annoying most of you but let me say Im not yet successful but am not where I used to be. Whenever I get in my toy I say thank you Lord. Whenever I look at my kids I say Thank you Lord. When I look at my girlfriend I say thank you Lord. Am grateful. Guys if I managed to turn my miserable life into a blessing why cant you? If Dj Sbu can drive such a big machine why cant you? If a guy like me who grew up not knowing his shoe size why cant you? Life wait for no man. Stop sorry for yourself. If you too lazy to make it for urself then do it for ur generation. My life. Your inspiration
