"Izandla ziyaGezana"

Today's piece it's about when the other hand fails to wash the other... I mean as we are people; it is human nature for us to have spouses, friends, cousins, relatives and mostly importantly the people whom God decides for you not as we chose our friends - FAMILY!

We often hear what elders seldom say "Izandla ziya gezana" (The other hand washes the other). However my question is; how often do we as humans practice that in our daily lives? How often do you help back the very same person who helped you when you were REALLY in need of their help?

I speak of such words because I have personally noticed in my experiences that family (yes, them) they actually ARE the people most times they don't really "scratch your back" quite as often as you do to them. Friends or Relatives sometimes doesn't really encourage you to be the person you really fond of becoming - Personally I think for one to succeed in life, it's not because I want to prove myself to friends or other relatives, BUT the people whom God chose for you as FAMILY!

One day it is all well and everybody is happier than you are of your achievements, however getting to a point where you fall on your knees, NONE of those would rejoice your failures so they help you to get up back on your feet. 

It all comes back to you when you all alone, around your four walls, on your bed at night that NO ONE REALLY CARED, but to help you finish all your wealth/riches.

I, for one; I have stopped in believing in "Izandla Ziyagezana".

One day shall be the day!

There are times or days where you think to yourself that "When will I be the person I want to be". Guess what? You don't have the answer to that right? - Wrong, you are the decider to that. Well I personally say what you need/want to happen to you for your personal success it's entirely up to you, yes that might sound like a cliché, however my point is that what you want out of life you can make it a possibility. Yes I'm not a millionaire to make myself better than everyone else. For example, when you determined that you want a candy from a store, you make it a point that you have necessary time and tools budgeted for that... Don't lose track here- I'm trying to make a point that when you put effort and time into it, you'll finally have what you want. The goal you aiming for might take longer than expect, yes there are challenges and stumbling blocks that will always disable you to get to it; hence it might take a while.

Good Deeds You Can Simply Do

Doing good deeds not only affects those around you, but also improves your own emotional well-being. Try these random acts of kindness from Debbie Macomber , author of One Simple Act: Discovering the Power of Generosity . So how do we get in the habit of doing good deeds ? Habits need to be cultivated. When I decided I wanted to do a daily good deed, I found myself looking for simple things that would brighten someone’s day. The desire made me more intentional. I started looking for ways to show kindness. I’m not saying it comes easily. We’re all busy, distracted, and pulled in far too many directions. As with any habit , the more you practice, the more ingrained it will become. I second what John Wooden once said: “You can’t live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you.” And each time we perform some small act of kindness, we’ll find ourselves rewarded by that rush of happiness and stress release. The very act offers its ow
