Fidel Castro in South Africa with Nelson Mandela

South Africa is an amazing country and where I live I could ask for nothing more beautiful, I have the wonderful sea that I hear and smell and if I want I can experience by touch every day of my life, could I ask for anything more in this beautiful country. Our crime rate is in my opinion out of control and to make it even worse a beautiful lady that I know had an attempt of a Hi Jacking on her as she got into her car just a couple of months ago, fortunately she is alright except for the trauma she had to endure because some horrid nasty people wanted her car. This brought some feelings close to home for me as I have never been in the situation of knowing anyone that this sort of thing has happened to, it always seems to happen to someone else.

I thought I had a pretty good life all taken into account that is, I was happy in my job and in my life in general I suppose one could say, I live in South Africa so I know I have to be careful and lock my door and keep my eyes open when driving as so may incidents of domestic violence are reported every day as well as vehicle Hi Jacking along with rape and murder, part of our life unfortunately in South Africa. It all changed though, not overnight but in a way that is difficult to explain, I met a lady on the internet, At first she was just a normal average person and as time moved forward and I got to know her better I began to realise what an incredibly special lady she is and we began mailing one another. She is a person that is always on the go doing things, writing amazing stories and living a life that I wished I had, without having met her I was intrigued by this amazing woman and could not wait for mails from her to arrive so I could read her words. In her mails to me she began explaining things that to me had made no sense before, she taught me to look outside my tiny box and to trust in my own judgments, to look at life with a very different perspective. To meditate and to believe in spirit was one of these amazing gifts she imparted to me. I grew in stature as I read her beautiful words to me and with every mail I received from her I felt as if I was climbing this incredible ladder and it just seemed to be getting easier and easier with every rung I ascended. I stared a new job at the beginning of this year, I was terrified of what I was taking on but through her words I felt it was right and so I entered into my new position with confidence, then within the week of the beginning of January another opportunity came knocking on my door, another incredible opportunity arose so unexpectedly and one which I could do without interfering with my day job. I told this beautiful lady of this and she said I should go with my heart and trust my own judgments, I did.

I am writing this to let everyone out there know that there are special people in this world of ours, although it is wrought with crime and lack of understanding, terrible indiscretions that are taken upon people and horrific incidents of rape and killing in this beautiful country of ours which makes us sometimes wonder why we still live here, then out of the blue when least expected a most wonderful and beautiful person comes into your life and everything and I mean everything changes and I am happy to say my second job is so good and I love it so much, I am making so much money from it doing what I love the most in so much that I have nearly doubled my income this month and next month is looking even better.

This is not written as anything other than a great big thank you to a remarkable and beautiful lady, a lady that has helped me in so many ways and she has done it because she is special.

So to everyone out there, believe in who you are, trust in yourself and your own judgments, open you mind to things you never thought possible and they will manifest.

My beautiful friend told me so and she is right!!!

The most beautiful gift anyone can give themselves is trusting their own instincts and going forward on their chosen road with confidence and self love.
Good luck with all your ventures.
