Takwira !

Achieving something,

A journey that began at the bottom, which took

you to the top,We have embarked on a journey.

THERE IS NO LOVE RELATIONSHIP WITHOUT FRIENDSHIP!

The right reason for a person to get married is that you get married because you are looking for a FRIEND.A wife is not there to serve but to compliment a man.After choosing between Culture and the Bible  ,it becomes easier for a person to know which is there truth and the lie. There is nothing frustrating than marrying a woman  who will not be a friend.

We Zulu's,Tsonga's,Sotho's.Venda's,Swazi's,Xhosa's ,when we get Born Again we then preach that we hate dating.In reality dating is meant to help the two persons meeting to Discover if you have a friend in this person.A friendship must be built,you do not meet over night and become friends.Friendship has also levels.They that belong to God are led by the spirit of God.It is God who leads you to a real friend.

In dating,be real to each other,do not hide your real self.So that you will built on a proper foundation.It is out of this relationship that you will know that you have a life partner.It is out of this relationship where love will emerge.THERE IS NO LOVE RELATIONSHIP WITHOUT FRIENDSHIP!
Do not spend time in waiste living in dreams,start on preparing for the future now,prepare for your marriage.

If it started on friendship,you will just say come marriage-enjoy.In reality a man does not owe you,if you get married for wrong reasons such as money,fame,high standard of living you will not make it in marriage.That is why you will have to be independent,have your own properties,be self sufficient.

There are three important stages before marriage. 1.. Friendship

                                                                   2.. Dating

                                                                   3. Courtship


Friendship

You start observing each other to see if this will  work out.Starting as friend,you observe each other,do you have a common goal,are you going the same direction?does your vision connect at some stage?where do you see each other in 5 years time from now?




Dating

This must be done in an exposed place where everyone can see.It must done in a Godly manner.In that restaurant,be safe by all means-be able to control your self.

Coutship

When are you getting married???
What type of marriage you are taking?
Why?


Do know that what makes life interesting is that we are really not the same.Can you ever imagine how boring life would be if we were the same.Diversity built unity,we become one because we are different.If we are standing opposite to each other,I hold your left hand by my right,I also hold you right hand by my right.It means that when you are weak I am strong.

Marriage comes from God and the purpose of marriage is friendship.You do not marry a woman because you want to control her but because you love her.

WHAT DOES NOT START WELL IN THE FOUNDATION,IT WILL BE WISE TO DEMOLISH IT.

Marriage needs qualities more than money.

There are things that money can not buy!

 love simple things of life!

(c) Sizwesamazulu Zulu,2011
Words said in many songs,many talk shows and found in many motivational books,
Poeple do say this statement but often forget to analyse it ,which makes the growing and the upcoming to stumble and fall.For there are really things that money can not buy such as faithfull charecter,fadeless deeds,speaking inspiration worth more than gold,genuene deeds,trust ,true love ,truth(the list is countless)

What is important is that the are attributes which a human soul looks for which money can not buy.For instance he may have positionalism,fame,high standard of living,world an its expensive treasures.But if he/she is not  trustworthy which is the foundation of a successful relationship,this will lead to a divorce.

In conclusion, love simple things of life,attributes that money can not buy.

UNIVERSITY OF ZULULAND

This is the content of the proposed joint venture film production (between the LS Foundations,  IKS Centre ,the film office of Zululand and the Students of the University of Zululand.
        “Create an impact, leave a mark!”

Chapter 1:  1994, April 27 was a very promising day for black people in South Africa, it served as the Rebirth of South Africa. Thakwira belongs to the generation of children who inherited freedom, who were not there when great sons and daughters of South Africa died and were murdered brutally because of apartheid and Bantu education. She only heared that this freedom did not come cheap,there are innocent souls who died.

Chapter 2:  Thakwira is hurt when she sees the abuse of the inherited freedom by students whom instead of studying knowing that there are people who died so we seize this opportunity, instead they smoke drugs during schooling hours, drink alcohol and abscond classes.The start smoking dagga at the age of 12 and end up persuing the lives of the presented role models with fancy cars who are thugs.

Chapter 3: Thakwira sees Future dreams of students shattered down because of engaging themselves in sex, alcohol, drugs and crime which they commit by trying to steal huge amounts so that they can meet fame positionalism and high standard of living.

Chapter 4:   Seeing this very chaotic environment, she uses the strategies of Community builders to initiate change after being nominated as an SRC leader in Mpumalanga College of Education.

Chapter 5:  In spite of many obstacles, challenges and problems she faces which tries to put her down, she manages to change her world.

“One person can change the whole world” Ps t. S .Zulu (Member of Christ Embassy)

“ Be an initiator of change by brightening the corner where you are for the improvement      

  of many lives.” President Jacob Zuma (President of the Republic of South Africa)

2. THE PIRIOD

   
 Background

1. So many writings, assays and Novels that have been written about Apartheid. I could have written about Mpumalanga T/Ship before 1994,but most of the facts have already been expressed by other writers, (BESSIE HEAD,CLOUDS MUST GATHER NOW,SARAFINA! BY MBONGENI NGEMA, LONG WALK TO FREEDOM,

            by Nelson Mandela - Holt, Rinehart and Winston (2000.09)  and many more.

            So I was going to mention the same facts.

            I saw a need to write this account, when I saw a need of the abuse of the ‘INHERITED

            FREEDOM which the blood and death was shared for by our young people whom

            Instead of studying they choose to skip classes to smoke dagga, use drugs, abuse alcohol

            Instead of studying ‘remembering great men who have come and gone who were  

            Murdered harshly because of Apartheid. The fought against Bantu education, lived in

            A crazy dark world so that we can inherited this blessed international education, ‘IFA 

            LENKULULEKO’

  2       The film starts on the 27 April 1994, South Africa inherit freedom and President               

            Mandela and South Africa Inherits freedom. South Africa is being transformed to a better

            Place (places getting electricity) and similar education for all races, South Africa   

            Develops in Sports, economically, socially, politically and also in Media.

      Mpumalanga T/Ship is struggling and poor since Whites are who were providing Jobs for

Blacks have just closed their companies since they are shifting for a black man has just inherited the Government seats. Young people of Mpumalanga T/Ship are involved in drugs, alcohol and are not morally regenerated. Mpumalanga/Ship is therefore a chaotic environment.

3.    Mpumalanga College of Education is Training Institute for teachers, in Mpumalanga T/Ship. It is where young people’s hopes for the better future are natured. The 10 characters who are the main focus in this film depicts the types of young people who are found in Africa. Thakwira uses the creative tools of leadership to change her world.  

     

The Story Analysis

All of her life, Thakwira faces obstacles, problems, challenges, conflicts and opposition which tries to prevent her from fulfilling the wish of her inner voice. Her motivation becomes powerful in times of her difficulties which help her to stand the test of time.

After the harsh rejection which she receives from people who are around her, who were her friends. Some are officials of the College where she studies. She is pleased to figure out that sometimes when people you know, you cannot trust; you can trust your strangers. God brings strangers to be your shoulder to cry on.

When all is right and she has earned support. Thakwira almost loses her life; she almost doesn’t make it when she gets poisoned by her friend. She survives this, after hearing a voice which is said to be coming from Earth which said, ‘I have called thee to take my people to the promise land, you are still to serve on earth-your mission is not yet fulfilled. There are many reasons why she stands in difficult not quiting.She believes in the Bible and makes confessions, prays and that depict the life of a Christian.

It is at this point in time that the name Thakwira is revealed when ,Thakwira watches the pictures of her family album Thakwira!
Thakwira ;derived from Shona name(Zimbabwe) which means to get on top of something,to be amongst and to associate, Be an agent of good change. Thakwira discovers a letter under one picture in the album which her father wrote.and his child ‘Thakwira,’must be named ‘Thakwara!’because she was born at a period when he was trying to initiate a change in Zimbabwe.

Thakwira ’s . painful moments is her is her background which is haunting her since ,her father died, her mother died and her Uncle was arrested. People elect her to be the SRC president, but when she initiates a change they desire. They turn against her. She feels more pain when she gets rejected by people who are around her, former friend betrays her. Obstacles and challenges she encounter makes her feel pain.

Thakwira’s story seeks to bring motivation to people who are hopeless, religion to those whom it will make them find purpose.It brings the youth beck to education.  Thakwira’s objectives from time to time in the film is to change the lives of young people who are living a life with no aim , no meaning and no direction. Her super objectives is to bring youth back to education. Her views are summed up in the following song. Writer is not known- to the writer, please email to: sizwesamazulu@lifeinzululand.co.za. Thakwira’s views;

“Imfundo itholwa kanzima

Itholwa ngezinyembezi

Thina siyazama

Ilanga liphumile

Vuka,vuka mntakababa

Sekusile

Baba Kubuhlungu ushayiwe

Bayavutha othishela

Kodwa akunacala

Thina siyaphambili. ”

Foreword:  Dr  Meshach Radebe (MEC of Population Development)

Community infrastructure is critical in promoting service delivery as it promotes accessibility

to services. Since taking over the Department I have been faced with stark, bare poverty in

many areas of KwaZulu Natal,some of which are generally not known to exist and have passed

by development.

Putting food on the table for many people of this province means walking long distances on

empty stomachs, most often to be turned away or to be riffed to other places for assistance.

Fighting childhood poverty and promoting early childhood development means communities

need crèches to provide services to children. Many areas of Kwazulu Natal do not have such

facilities which infringes the rights of children to social services One Stop Development centers

aim to provide this much needed community infrastructure to provide access to a full range

of social development services to children, women, older persons, youth, people with

disabilities as well as families infected and affected by HIV/AIDS.

As a sustainable livelihood approach this concept aims to mobilize previously un-resources

communities into the formation of community based organizations that can render social

services to their local people with the assistance and empowerment from Government.

Historically such areas were sidelined by development with none

Government organizations aligning their services to urban areas and cities, thus putting

severe pressure on government communities therefore significantly contributes to therefore

significantly contribute to their sustainable livelihood.

Communities will receive the necessary training in running these centers and necessary

financial assistance .Stakeholders like ,municipalities will play a significant role in the provision

of basic services and maintance of these centers.

Sizwesamazulu Zulu enchanting poems!!!

I will never forget Mpumalanga T/Ship (Poem)

I fell short of words ,if I have to tell this story...,"From 1984-1992,Feb 28-More than 10 000 young poeple are missing because of the War in Mpumalanga T/Ship.

1. The Period

The lament from 1985-1994 - ‘Mpumalanga T Ship’

The songs we sang

The political praises we enchanted

The frightening cry of a man

The tears, the betrayal of the spies

When the British pharaoh

Caused us to fight with one another

When our heroes lied down on the street

The courage of those who died

When Gods children died like ants

We saw the red vehicle like Utamatisi

The dead of the arising leaders

In a painful decade of weeping

The lament and song

We heared voices of those crying and dying

The day of grief and black clouds

The vanish of splendor and excitement

The sounds of the fuzzy,

The machine gun

The pump gun

The R1,The R4,The ak47

The 38,the home made gun

The baby brown

The streets named blood

Kwa fried meat meaning humans

Blood flooded like river exceedingly

105 lie down in 15 mnt’s time

38 lied the next day

The uncounted number of deaths in a decade“Youth are still dying in numbers, because of HIV/AIDS,

CRIME AND DRUG ALCOHOL ABUSE.”
