Will we ever get pass this???

Eighteen years of "Freedom" does  not seem much in the minds of South Africans and this fledgling democracy, Nonetheless, it sums up the iconography of suffering, struggle and rebirth of a nation. I have no doubt that both parties suffered during the apartheid era and and some still bleed from their losses and some are just not good at forgiving or moving on.

Some of us were fortunate enough to be born near to the end of this prolonged madness, because to me it makes no sense as to why after so many years we would still be rapped around what colour skin another person is, a friend was standing in the queue and a white lady came pushing a pram and this friend started playing with the kid in the pram "he was such a cutie" she said and then this woman looks at this friend then the child then the friend again then she says to the child "you really like the nanny hey?" for a while she just stood there and starred at this woman thinking which part of her makes her seem like she's a nanny or would be a nanny as they might be having the same bank balance.

In every sense the word, independence, democracy, freedom, solidarity and de-routing the destiny of an entire nation from a dark past, all fused in a historical moment of collective rebirth. It is high time for our mindsets to be reborn, we have to change the way we guise at things. If a black person is promoted at work they only got there because the President is black and is looking out for his own people, the rise of petrol the lack of jobs, crime, fraud etc. all of this is blamed on the black Governement, question is would these things been avoided if it was not the black government in power? well thats a million dollar question.

Whatever is done correctly by a black person is always questioned , when Caster Semenya (insert) won the women 800-m metres in 2009 had to undergo a gender test because there was no way a woman could run that fast, Mariya Savinova runs twice as fast and her gender was not questioned, Caster made it second on won the silver but that still broke out the controversy that she could have won she just stalled deliberately.

I peronally think if it's necessary to compete we do it on intellect as opposed to race, I was once asked to help teach the Sunday school at my church once and i decided i was gonna ask them what they would like to be when they grow up and this child with a smile and eyes shinning gladly replied "i would like to be white" and that had me in tears and of course had to pretend there was something in my eye, but it saddens me that this whole racial issue has been blown out of proportion so much that peole wish their colour skin was different. I dont regret one bit i was born black or that i was raised the way i was or that i even went to the school i went to, im happy and comfortable with my skin, and only wish sooner or later we elevate to a level where we wont need to judge eacth other anymore accept life put our differences and past behind us and live like brothers and sisters im definite Mandela will die a peaceful death with this achieved because im sure it's what he stayed in Roben Island for 27 years for
