TOO MUCH OF ANYTHING IS NOTHING!

Image
   Gluttony is a sickness! 😱 I wrote this piece to discourage people who eat in a heartbeat. Those of you who cannot resist the smell of food.  Whatever you see, you must eat, by all means. Your stomach limiter was broken decades ago. You can't control your disgusting appetite! Did you know, WHO declared obesity as a disease in 1997? If you are one of them sick folks out there, please go get help for your bottomless tummy. You must learn to eat to live and not live for food! Even wild animals have a limiter which stops them from hunting for prey. You are better than that. Come on, wake up before your heart gives up on you due to all the fat attacking it; which makes your blood veins ineffective to pump enough blood! 🙆🏾‍♂🥸 Too Much Of Anything Is Nothing! I heard them say, don’t believe everything you hear or see. Always take everything with a pinch of salt. I thought every time people pour salt over something that thing must be ready for consumption. All consume...

GOING TAPPITY TAP TAP!

Image
  Going Tappity Tap Tap! All the music jars when the heart is out of wits, we’re told! Medical doctors are always fascinated when they discover their patient’s vital signs of life are intact. My colleagues used to laugh out loud when I told them, there comes a time in a man’s life... when farting becomes the only recognisable vital sign of life! A team of doctors gathering around a man’s sickbed will be going like... only if this patient could fart, that’ll be enough to demonstrate he’s okay! And by Golly, their prayers were answered when their sick patient let ripped and showed vital signs of being alive. What did the doctors do? You should have seen this! The doctors jumped and leaped with joy, hugged and gave each other the loudest high fives! It was magic in this ward! Going tappity tap-tap for these excited doctors permeated the hospital as other staffers rushed in to witness the miracle. Hallelujah, this patient lived to see another day! It’s always hard and dif...

DUSTY ROADS AND BLIGHTED HORIZONS!

Image
  Dusty Roads And Blighted Horizons! All kinds of winds originate from and end inside the ocean. From cool soothing breeze to devastating hurricanes, the ocean remains the mother of all beginnings. The cardinal direction of these winds offered no letup for the embattled and beaten down pilgrims of age. Seeking and exploring the world for better sunshine and better crop harvesting. Man’s roots and connection to the earth and ground upon which he stands is legendary. After all, a man’s life and resources all come from down below the same earth. Migration and the desire to seek greener pastures have always been part of man. Over the years before Civilization men learned to interpret the winds. Following the right direction where the wind was blowing sometimes led men into a surprise utopia of dreams! At the worst of times, these great explorers had to go against the winds to find their land of milk and honey! Dusty roads and blighted horizons. Man was taken from the ...

GOING NOWHERE SLOWLY!

Image
  Going Nowhere Slowly! Your proud life in the world can never be an isolated carefree standalone. They say, no man is an Islander. Life needs life in order to keep the heart beating. Our lives are self evident and proof beyond any science; that our hearts are the grid which sustains our survival as humans. So zestful I wanna catch the tail I don’t have! Going nowhere slowly is not just an empty sloganeering or mythical figure of speech. Going nowhere slowly is a fact of life.. factoring on matters!. It’s humanly impossible to be alone in your own thoughts without framing other people and the world all around. Whatever must be done and whatever happens takes place in a circle of others. Going nowhere slowly doesn’t depend on speed needed or the distance to be traveled. Like our heartbeats, one step a time is all it takes. O yes, there it is! Tomorrow I need to leave my house early in order to catch the queue at Home Affairs. Once I get there .. it’s a going nowhere slow...

DESTINY LIES ABOUT YOUR LIFE!

Image
 Destiny Lies? Nobody was born to be a bishop, pastor, evangelist, or any destiny lies about your sad life coming from the pulpit. If any man loves me, said Jesus; "Let him pick up his cross and follow me!" Not "Any man who has a destiny with God, must follow me." Please read your Bible correctly. God is calling every man to repent: reads my Bible. You are no more important to God than a prostitute or a rapist, or a murderer! Reject the lies that you mean more to God than the 8 billion others. God of vengeance is Old Testament and N.T. He is Mercy and Grace! Basheshe bahleka kanti iNkosi ingizwile... is a negative, self- centered, destiny lies songs! Your enemies are not necessarily enemies of God! Hallelujah Bazalwane! 😨🙆🏾‍♂😱🤸🏻‍♀ Destiny Lies About Your Life! Life and Death are Life’s only Realities, everything else happens in-between! Sometimes it is necessary to quote myself directly to rekindle your light. A desire to live, survive and have all the nec...

THANK YOU SINGAPORE!

Image
 Dear World, Please put your hands together with me as I take this minute to Congratulate Singapore for being my #1 Country in the World.  Singapore Loves and shares my works like no one in the World. They just toppled my own country, South Africa. I am humbled! And a Big Thank You to everyone across the Globe for taking your time to listen, read and share my works!. Much Appreciated! I won't be doing justice if I tried to name each country represented here. They're just too many to mention. Once again. Thank You Singaporeans for recognising my efforts to share the Word and spread Peace in the World. God bless you all. Sydney Pikelela Gutyungwa September 16th, 2023

THE IRON LADY!

Image
  Related Narratives.. Our Matriarch The Queen! The Iron Lady! She had the eyes of an eagle and a killer smile that says, dare me to your own peril. Her commanding voice echoed like a trumpet from high up the mountain. When she called your name, you’d better hurry up and get right behind her A tough disciplinarian and mother of six boys and two girls. Her sons knew their mother was a no nonsense lady. She’d speak and they had no choice but to obey! If Heaven permits me, I could emblazon her name in the skies above for generations to come. To see her calm, soothing and affirmative face. Ruth Mazibuko was her name and one of the aunts I ever had in my orphaned childhood. Negro Spiritual says, the Lord moves in mysterious ways and has some wonders to perform! The Iron Lady was God’s masterstroke in the finger of His Creation. God through Ruth, prepared my whole life for the unforeseeable future she knew was imminent! I remember how so many countless times my mother and I...

HAPPINESS IS A STATE OF MIND!

Image
  Happiness Is A State Of Mind! Like bubbles momentarily popping up over relatively quiet waters and so are our thoughts... our moods swing inside positive or negative state of mind. A feeling is easily let off and ignored just like we discard bothersome thoughts. It takes more than taste to chew! I still remain baffled and don’t understand why in some mornings I wake up like a warrior ready to go to war. I just kick the blankets and roar straight ahead like a fearless lion! And just why is it that more often than not, I find myself so glum and unrelenting to the inviting day outside my windows. Waking up is no guarantee that one is fully awake and in sync with the beautiful sunshine and embracing blue skies above. If happiness was a virtue, I believe there’d be nothing out there in the world that can put me down.. no matter what the situation might be! Hello. Happiness is nothing but just another temporary state of mind. You can only feel however happy for as long ...

WHEN SURVIVING IS WORSE THAN DEATH!

Image
 Related Narratives... Invisible Walls Of Pain ! Death By Suicide! When Surviving Is Worse Than Death! The greatest will and desire to live on and to survive at all cost, was instilled in our conscience by the Almighty God! Our desire to survive is the root for hope which helps and shapes our minds to be looking forward and survive another day. The road and ground beneath our feet may be rough and spiky; but the hope within says...keep looking at your horizon! Without this virtue no man can live another day. Life is a conundrum and endless labyrinthine and a minefield loaded with surprises of good and bad. Walking out is daring out into the unknown. Return is never guaranteed! When surviving is worse than death, that’s when a man or a woman sits back, contemplates all the escaped arrows of death...and finds no victory. Sometimes, victory is less sweeter than the outcome of having survived a near death situation. I cry tears of sadness when I watch videos of injured US...

THIS WOMAN RIGHT HERE IN MY HEART!

Related Narratives .... Memories Last Forever! My Friend In A Million! This Woman Right Here In My Heart People in the world talk and tell about many fascinating stories they find dearest in their hearts. Love, entertainment, survival and adventures. At best, all these furores carry different weights and meaning for different folks. You see, I have moments in my life way back as a young orphaned boy which bring tears of joy to my heart. I was raised by my big brother and big sister as an orphan from eight. These two people took over where Mama left, carried and guided my life to what it is today. I had nobody else to cry and run to after my mother passed on. My sister and brother became my real parents, I was never alone in a lonely world! Just where do I begin to tell about this woman right here in my heart? No boy has experienced so much love which only God can give! One day I was excitedly told my big brother was getting married the next Saturday. O boy! I was thrilled...
