Today was all about heart openers. In a time where you are inundated with horror of scenes around our country, looting and watching people throw children out of burning buildings to save their lives amidst the chaos that ensues on our door step, feeling helpless and fighting feelings of hopelessness, trying to move with love and set aside fear becomes harder and harder.
There is hope however.
There are communities standing together to protect their livelihoods, there are volunteer programs already putting back the pieces and offering helping hands to those who have lost so much.
There is an awakening awareness to how dire the effects of COVID have been along with the unforgivable corruption and thuggery of our government who stole the very funds that were supposed to keep our people alive.
The world is watching.
Zuma is in jail.
This is the beginning of a new era - the rest will see their day in court.
Even though it is a dark time, South Africa is coming together. This is the rock bottom we had coming. If the government loots from the top and leaves nothing for its people, wasn’t it inevitable something had to fall? People are uneducated, hungry, jobless and hopeless. Others are opportunists and thugs following a leader that stole from them, putting them in the position they are in! Where is the justice?
Let this be the turning point.
Let this be the beginning of a new chapter. The ashes that turn into the Phoenix. Let the chaos calm and our wounds heal and then let’s get to rebuilding.
Rebuilding a more equal society. Rebuilding to unify.
Rebuilding with honesty and respect for all our incredible cultures.
We can only rebuild with love.
South Africa I hold you in my heart 🇿🇦
