Youthful innocence lost!

Imagine you're youth, the moments of bliss as you score you're first goal, your parents warm embrace as they wrap their arms around you in pure pride!

Now imagine this youth as they learn to disapprove of our people, as they are persecuted for being human in a country that does not want them here, where is the warm embrace and love that the youth of our country should be experiencing??!!

Into the eyes of Africa

The vision of Africa has been obscured since the independance period of the 70's. Now here in South Africa we face our own vision. The eyes of these Africans tell a different vision from that one envisioned by Nelson Madela less that 14 years ago. Now President Mbeki, does your vision even remotely relate to that of the wondrous Nelson Mandela?

Where to from here...

If we get there early in the morning we can get the mist rising from the mountain and the people still asleep. I was hoping we wouldn't bother anybody and get a few different pictures. Getting lost along the way, meant we arrived at seven that morning. As the news media reported the Somalians were on a hunger strike. Luckily the hunger strike had ended by the time we decided to go there.
I believe these people came to South Africa in search of a better life. They set up shop and supported there right to survive in an equal democracy. The local South Africans probably became jealous of there ability to survive in our instable economy. The goverment probably saw the attacks coming in January already! What do they care, in fact they sit with an even greater situation right now! The Somalians do not know where to go from here...
