Walked off with all of my STUFF!

Somebody almost walked off with all of my stuff and didn’t care enough to send a note home saying, I was late for my solo conversation or two sizes too small for my own tacky skirts.

What can anybody do with something of no value on a open market? Did you get a dime for my things? Hey man...
Where are you going with all my stuff? This is a woman’s trip and I need my stuff to oooh and ahhhh about. Honest to God, somebody almost run off with all of my stuff.

And I didn’t bring anything but the kick and sway of it. The perfect ass for my man and none of it is theirs. This is mine. Juanita’s own things. That’s my name. Now give me my stuff I see ya hiding’ my laugh. And how I sit with my legs open sometimes to give my crotch some sunlight. This is some delicate leg and whimsical kiss I got to have to give to my choice. No you can’t have me unless, I give me away.

And I was doin’ all that, till ya run off on a good thing.
And who is this you left me with? Some simple bitch with a bad attitude. I want my things. I want my arm with the hot iron scar and my leg with the flea bite. I want my calloused feet and quick language back in my mouth. I want my own things. How I loved them.

Somebody almost run off with all of my stuff. And I was standing there, looking at myself, the whole time. It wasn't a spirit that ran off with all my stuff. It was a man whose ego walked round like Rodan’s shadow. It was a man faster than my innocence.

It was a lover; I made too much room for. Almost run off with all my stuff. And the one running with it. Don’t know he got it. I’m shouting this is mine.

And he doesn’t know he got it. My stuff is the anonymous ripped off treasure of the year. Did you know somebody almost got away with me... me in a plastic bag under their arm? Me...

Play Me - A must watch

The clock says it is 11h10pm and I just got home.

I went to the Market Theatre to watch a show called Play Me. The show is written by Monde Mayephu, and directed Mpho Molepo.

Play Me is a story of what can go wrong in a relationship if the cracks are left to exist without repair. The cracks open wider and, like an open wound, begin to fester and – ultimately – rot.

This story of power and love explores those seven deadly sins through the life of an unstable couple who invite “strangers’ into their lives to level the playground. This metaphor is beautifully captured on stage by four well-seasoned actors: Fana Mokoena as Joe, Sello Sebotsane as Jack, Zandile Msutwana as Pretty, and Lerato Mvelase as Julia.

The show's performance time is Tuesday – Saturday 20h15; Sunday 15h15. The last show is on Sunday the 1st of May.

Go see it. You wont regret it.

Having to start the year in a low gear. I am currently sorting my way of being.

I am giving thanks to my life coach.

Things do turn the wrong way in order to keep one in line.

What took place in my personal life in December I see that as a positive thing because now I can look back and say. Go weditswe. New life, new adventure awaits and all I need to do is not to dwell on the past. The future is bright and requires to be grabbed with both hands.

Most importantly, I appreciate all the cleansing I am going through and I positively believe when all is done I will be a better person.
