To Tag or Not To Tag?

I do not want to sound like a Twitter cop because for someone like me with two followers my right to brag is non-existent. Excuse me for not moving on with the times, LOL!

 

I get really worked up when people who hold influential positions misuse them. It just gets to me. Even the ones who want to gain popularity by being 'bitchy'.

 

I don't know how one feels when they bring others down. We are not the same vele some are sensitive, others don't give a Tugela river! We just need to learn to respect each other qha ke!

 

I am as nosy as they come but getting my hands all muddy and dirty with people I claim to care about doesn't make sense. So when you tweet trash about someone why do you feel the need to tag them?

 

What are you hoping to achieve, we all fool around and have our preferences but why the need to shove it at people's face. Is it attention seeking or trying to be cool among your peers at someone's expense?!

 

I have read the two letters that were sent to Khaya Dlanga anonymously by women who were voicing out their frustrations after dumping their cheating boyfriends  . At the end of both letters I more was worried about the women who wrote them rather than the so called losers. The anger that we direct to some people is actually the window that gives people an idea about our bitterness.

 

I for one don't even have the guts to tag someone when I have said something good about them because I don't want them to think I'm buying their faces or looking for a retweet. That's just me and my pride.

 

Then there are those who try to water down the negativity that some folks have NYONYOBAD on Twitter by saying we shouldn't take anything that happens there seriously.  C’mon! Our Tweets are an indication of what's going on your head so please nantsika!

Is My Hair Too African?

 

Let me partake on this weave and natural hair debate that has never reached any conclusion.

It makes perfect sense for Africans to grow their natural hair.

I'm sure the Westerners are laughing at us now.

Have you seen a white woman putting on a dead black woman's hair? Or rocking a Pitch Black Afro wig?

My primary School teacher often said Ubuhle bentombi zinwele zayo so what happens when you are wearing synthetic or worse Brazilian weave.

Doesn't it bother you that fake hair is mostly sold in Brazil and India where poverty rates is escalating? They are likely encouraged to sell their human hair to make ends meet. Euww!

It's an undeniable fact that the minute you take if off the counter and pay few thousands it becomes yours? Right?!

I don't want to be too religious on you because its not my place but I think we are selling ourselves short.

To me, seeing a black sassy woman in a weave represents a lost generation.

We have detached from who we are and we subconsciously allowed the media to dictate to us what true beauty is.

You are not your hair but its part of who you are.

Love and appreciate the kinky hair you were born with.

So I'm Too Young For God?

This is what I’m told whenever I tell people I’m a born again , blood washed believer.

Haibo, you need to live a little, do what people your age are doing. You need to be saved from  something and wena you’re still young. So they say.

And my question is does Satan ask people their age before leading them astray? Is he interested in your innocence?  NO, his mandate is to do the exact opposite of what God does.I was so surprised to learn that like God he has his trinity. What a copycat.

In some people’s eyes I’d be a better Christian when I have three children with different fathers that would collectively make R1000 a month of social grant- A testimony that the world has tested me.

To them it’s unacceptable for me to be saved and my peers often ask if I’m allowed to date or swear. I guess that’s what keeping them in the world.

Those who want to dim my light, ask me how long have I been saved and my answer never changes- second of September 2006 and they’ll tell me it’s still early.

It’s like people fear this big monstrous failure that’s waiting to devour anyone who calls themselves the obedient children of God.

We are smarter than animals, we have a better ability to see things that could harm us from a distance and  discern from good and  evil.

Salvation is not new,  there are so many young people who have blamelessly  walked this path and kept the faith and we are strengthened daily by the failure of some who also wanted to live this pure life till the end but the ever deceiving Satan trapped them.
