Of Pride and other matters


On a sad note, someone I am very well acquinted with knew the gentleman who took  his own life with a gun on Friday or Saturday evening in the city.  Saturday, I saw an accident happen, one minute someone is walking minding their own business and next thing, a car hits them and they go up in the air and down.  Fortunately, they lived but it brought home the fact that life is fragile.  The little differences we choose to make big issues because of pride do not matter, because when everything is said and done, life is for living.  This post is dedicated to a young man who taught me that humility does not kill.  In fact, it makes us stronger and more worthwhile human beings.  To  Mr. Mkandla and all the people like him, thank you.
