NO PLACE LIKE HOME
Home without a mother is like home without food.
A home without challenges is like a house without corners,
Mothers are best at destroying corners.
There is no home without a mother.
A mother without love is like garden without flowers.
A mother without care is like a hospital without doctors.
There is no home without a mother.
A mother without confidence is like a road without cars.
A road without cars is useless.
Like a mother without confidence is useless.
Home without rules is like church without the Bible.
There is no home that feels like home, like home without a mother.
There is no home without a mother.

ONE SOLID FOUNDATION
Real women fall in love to stay in love forever.
Real men fall in love to stay in love forever.
They don’t dump unless they are cheated or lied upon.
They, they do not
cheat or lie,
No, no, not.
In fact, real love is real love.
Real love is not based on romance.
Real love is not based on candlelight.
No, not based on dinner and walks along the beach;
No, not based on material things;
In fact, real love is real love.
Real love is based on four solid layers:
One layer is called Respect,
The second layer is called Compromise,
The third layer is called Reliability,
Last but not least, the layer is by the name of Trust.
These four solid layers to create one solid foundation: real love.
A real man treats his lady like a Queen.
Real lady treats her gentleman like a King,
Kings and Queens stay in real love forever,
Be a King because you really love your Queen,
Be a Queen because you really love your King.
Enjoy in the ‘deep warm pool’ of real love,
Forever and ever and ever.

BROKEN HEART
You broke me into tiny pieces,
You made me feel unwanted.
Because of what you did to me,
How dare you?
You make me feel unlovely.
Because you broke me cruelly,
How dare you to hurt me?
Did you ever love me, or you were just playing games?
You broke me a thousand times,
But I still love you unconditionally,
I trusted you when they warned me about you.
Was it worth it?
All I did was loving you dearly,
But the least you did was to hurt me again and again.
You made me cry again and again.
You made me cry every day.
It doesn’t feel like home anymore.
I say there is no love for you anymore.
It feels like hell on my nose.
You completely broke me into tiny pieces,
You completely broke my heart.

BLUE MONDAY
Monday, another beautiful blue Monday…
I feel so strong, so strong like a mule, and I’m full of excitement.
You may wonder why I’m excited about a blue Monday.
You see, blue is described by those who know it as a natural colour.
Look up at the sky, and you will see blue.
An azure firmament ‘belting’ from horizon to horizon,
This, my dear friends, makes blue a universal colour.
A lighter shade of blue is pure and has a calming effect, which makes time slip faster and faster.
They say it makes you fall asleep easier.
Well, I don’t know about that.
Be careful, though, and use your time wisely;
Never allow the lighter shade of blue to throw you into a deep sleep unnecessarily.
One thing I know is that the darker the shade, the more meaningful the mood.
Really, associating oneself with darker shades brings about limitless benefits.
Darker shades of blue stimulate the mind, causing the brain to vibrate quickly.
Yep, allow it to vibrate rapidly.
Let it get connected to the ether, a ‘granary’ for all the riches.
Allow the darker shades of blue to nourish your spirit.
This lighter shade of blue perfectly symbolizes me – I am a South African.
I’m surely proud that in all the noise made by this diverse nation,
There are those whose focus is locked on a bigger picture,
The bigger picture of a prosperous, peaceful, and united South Africa we all want.
Yes, these determined men and woman their heads are full of meaningful thoughts.
They are invariably optimistic; their creative imagination is so massive,
Yes, these are determined men and women who are unique in their own ways.
Soldier on despite the lethal and taxing troubles of South African societies.
Blue Monday…
The colour blue…the colour of power.
My dear friends, join me then; it’s another beautiful blue Monday.
