Greetings ladies and gentle men
Idea
Such is life that dwells at the edge of ones thoughts. Thoughts inspired by the heart of ones self.
Question
What happens to life when thoughts are put to action?
(This does not apply to children under the age of maturity [that’s a joke people, now Lough])
Answer
One begins to live and one will live a free, content and passionate life.
Ladies and Gentlemen: what has happened to us, to us as South Africans? Do we not see? Are we so blinded by fear, anger and hate that we now do not see how selfish we are becoming. Have we forgotten ubuntu and that ubuntu started with us and it is what we are known for and what we were born to live by? Respect for ones self, respect for others and respect for ones environment. Honesty to our selves and honesty to others. Hard work done not for money but for the love of it, and its benefits. Love for ones self, love of others and love of ones environment. These are things we seem to have forgotten and these things are things that can only make our lives great. Our dreams are not distant objects we have to stretch out to, in order to obtain. No! The anatomy of our dreams and the tools we need to achieve them is embedded within us! We simply have to reach inside ourselves and take what is ours. Good things don’t fall on ones lap they wait to be seized at any given moment of chance. For to long we have suffered under the impression that we were the victims of life’s unfair circumstances. Not understanding that those circumstances are given to us in order to mould us for greatness, greatness for each and every single one of us. I’m not saying we can all be the greatest because we can’t but I am saying we can all be great! This I say in faith we are more than what we think we are as South Africans.
Idea
The past is a part of life that lingers in our memory, slowly fading.
Question
What happens to the past when it is remembered in present?
Answer
The past becomes the basis of the present.
I would like to quote from a U.S ex President Calvin Coolidge
“We review the past, not in order to return to it but that we may find in, what direction it points to the future.†End quote
Let us arise, rise from our past and let it not bind us from our future. The past that is apartheid and that is “The straggleâ€, which have grown in reputation to be endless. For they have come to pass. It is us that choose not to learn from the past and use its teachings for good and wisdom. Let the past not become the stigma to our movement the movement of moving forward.
Idea
Ladies and Gentlemen: Listen attentively when I say potential is endless! Regardless of its container. There is one with more potential then the other. There is no one with a limit to his or her potential but one controls how much of their own potential they can unleash. Achieving ones full potential is just a matter of choice.
I would like to quote again from the late U.S. psychologist Abraham Maslow
“A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What one can be, one must be.†End quote
A belated apology for the sexism, a lot of men never use to beg for it… back then. Yes, it’s a new age now, power to the women!
(Another joke people, you know what to do.)
I would like to emphasize on the portion that stats “What one can be, one must be.†Therefore if one has endless potential then one potentially has the capacity to be anything they aim to be. Therefore no one has an excuse not to be.
Question!
When are you going to unleash your potential?
Answer
……… (Life is waiting for you but time isn’t.)
Ladies and Gentlemen: I am Lungele Chuma Thando Mvulana and I believe.
The time is now. Time to come together as the rainbow nation we know we are, hold hands and face the mountain, that is all that hinders, our success and greatness and scream with all our might. MOVE!!
I thank you
