“If you disturb nature, nature will disturb you”

It’s 2 : 39 PM on day 2897 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read a Bible verse and spend time with family

Today my mom and I were discussing the flood in her home state of Kerala and how human behaviour is affecting the environment and she said to me “If you disturb nature, nature will disturb you” and I thought wow, so true we live as though we are disconnected from the planet when actually our every action comes with a reaction.

In a world full of people looking for the first exit be the one that enters every situation intent to stick around for people – that’s my message to the world

Recently I realized that in a world full of people looking for the first exit it’s important to be the one that enters every situation intent to stick around for people (unless said people’s values don’t match yours in which case it’s best to leave). Be the one that stays for the right people it’s highly underrated.

I know this ain’t for nothing

There’s nothing you don’t make

I know you got your reasons

It’s 12 : 54 PM on day 2888 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read a Bible verse, spend time out – it started to rain while I was outside it was so cool – and do some work

Yesterday while answering questions for Accessible South Africa’s interview series it dawned on me that the secret to my life so far has been knowing my life messages (anyone can make a difference, different is cool and kindness matters ) and being able to spread those messages.

Thank you to the women of 1956 for taking a stand and making this country a better place.

On this day 18 years ago my brother was born and our family was complete I’m so honoured to such a kind and gentle soul for a brother (i’ll never forget watching him comb our grandmother’s hair and giving her biscuits – a testament to his innate kindness and gentle spirit). Happy Birthday Kevin – Keep your gentle spirit as you enter into adulthood, believe in God and yourself and NEVER GIVE UP!
