HAPPY WOMEN'S MONTH ZIMBOKODO!!!


 

Womanhood is about the willingness to insert yourself in spaces of power. Walking into rooms full of people and having your presence felt, not only should your voice be heard but your aura should speak for itself. Being an African woman goes far beyond the color of my skin. My womanhood takes over from a race that was run by my foremothers. A race of strength, a race of hustle and integrity.

Womanhood has been immensely challenged by the plague of patriarchy, inequality and acts of abuse. Now is the time where we grab the baton, awaken our consciousness as black women and continue fighting the good fight and claim our position in a democratic South Africa.

Let us become women who view the past as WISDOM instead of shame because we have learnt and it has made us more cautious than before, Women let us take up space, claim our power and take up position!  We should be catalysts of change and start going big! Playing small does not change the world nor does it serve our purpose for existence!

Woman are multifaceted and we should not let oppressive mentalities keep our minds and spirits captured in chains. Let us shatter stereotypes and keep moving forward in solidarity with other women from all faces of the world! A winning spirit is an essential tool that will assist us conquer!

The fight for advocating for socio-political rights of women as well as feminism at large is far from over but holding hands together as women; a lot can be achieved! HAPPY WOMEN'S MONTH ZIMBOKODO!!!

CRY  MY  BELOVED   NATION-AFRICA    Being African goes far beyond the colour of my skin.It awakens my conscious when its children are dying of  pandemics,it awakens my conscious when its children go to bed on empty stomachs.My heart bleeds at the sight of African children dying of hunger .Yes,at this point there is nothing I can do but ohh holy Messiah, help me to help your children .To me,Melanin is just one of the scientific terms that I do not   really pay attention to.From Cape to Cairo ,we are one.African sorrow is my sorrow too. My heart bleeds at the sight of African childrens dreams shattering because of the loss of hope.Drugs having their way in destroying African families.Ndimana ndiziva ndibuza kumdali ukuba,Usishiya ngantoni na sitshabalala nje L It is the most painful thing being born in a hopeless land where there is no hope of a brighter future. How cruel is the world? Depriving an innocent angel basic resources. WHERE HAVE WE GONE WRONG??

The life that chooses us is prescriptive!

From the day my life was rooted in my mother’s womb, a purpose was served. Growing up, I knew for a fact that I already had an obligation; to fulfil my purpose. But there’s a notion that says that the life that chose me is prescriptive. This left me with a question of fate, why should we plan our lives if there is already an ultimate plan drafted for us. How does one align his own plans with those of his Creator?   From a tender age, hard-work was the only language we were taught. That you are your own creator. You are your own evolving masterpiece. Growing up into this mentality proved that growth itself is the realization that you are both the sculpture and the sculptor, the painter and the portrait. But how does one align his own plans with those of his Creator? And a wise man, Arnold Schwarzenegger once said that when your vision is powerful enough, everything else falls into place. Vision is purpose, and when your purpose is clear, so are your life choices. My twenties came ab

       THERE IS NO WEIGHT LIMIT ON BEAUTY!   Beauty is typically defined as tall and slim but that is not always the case. You can be fat , curvaceous and beautiful at the same time! Within those curves lies great strength. ‘’There is no thin person inside of me waiting to get out.There is no excuse for why fat people should not   be respected .You can be fat and enjoy life,wear what you want and live how you want’’ said   a size 40plus UNISA Student,Banele Geza. This judgement is usually triggered by how media defines beauty for us,by associating fat with being ugly which   is not true because beauty comes in all shapes and sizes!Women should never allow their body weight to make them feel insecure about themselves to an extent where they feel unattractive.Plus sizes need   to embrace their bodies and   learn to be comfortable in their own skin while looking presentable and feeling good at the swame time.Accepti
