The power within

The greatest gift I have always said is wisdom in conjunction with love.

Reach out to someone you know today and give them hope not in humanity only but in themselves.

In South Africa we have become imprisoned in our homes due to the high crime and I and my spouse have been victims three times and have bounced right back.

It got so bad that one grows suspicious of anyone and that is not the way to live. Insurance is sky high and you have to make so many stringent changes not just to your life but to your home by installing double gates at your entrance, electric fencing and hope to keep the bad ones out.

But even that does not bring you security.

Instead we let our fears and insecurities start ruling us and we see and imagine things.

Lets take the negative out of all of this and do something constructive. Let us embrace the problem we have and sharpen our skills so that we don't fall into the trap of crime.

If a community stands together then that will lesson the chance of crime as everyone will be alert and work together to make the community safe.

This problem we have with crime is a world wide problem, where there is poverty there is crime.

That is why I said in my previous post we must say “thank you” for what we have and try and give to those who dont have.

We have the power within not just to change ourselves but our community and those less fortunate than us.

The smallest thank you go’s a mile

The smallest thank you go’s a mile in any ones life.

Just saying thank you for the smallest thing makes a difference in anyone's life

Every day we have those who are less fortunate and struggle to make ends meet and yet they still appreciate the little things in life.

The smallest gift they cherish with all their hart and soul, we take many things for granted such as our home, car and other luxury things as a day to day thing.

But, do we ever sit back and say thank you God for such a beautiful day and that you have looked after me with your wisdom and love.

Well its been some time since I have updated my blog.

Well its been more than 2yrs of marriage and we are still going strong from strength to strength. Yeh there are many obstacles in the way and no journey has no bumps, I mean life would not be the same without them lol

We in return inspire and listen to each other and of course we have the temper tantrum now and then but before the sun rises or sets we laugh about it.

Many of you are married and have gone through trials and tribulations and have overcome.

Let us all overcome in our marriages and live life to the fullest
