Life, Style & elegance


All the above comes at a fortune in South Africa. We’re all looking for a nice time in a top notch venue with relevant young man and ladies at an affordable price. Who offers this, ideally on the last Friday of the month when the boss has loaded paper for a month’s work well done on my account? That’s what we looking for, in a jolly great mesmerising spot to wine & dine and spend dough for all its worth, while networking with young professional giants at a top class scene.
 
The best days of the month are the last days of the month, and guess what? The worst days of the month are the last days of the month. So where is the catch? It’s your choice to make your last days of the month good or bad days. I prefer good days only, no give and take! In posh places around posh people minding posh peoples business with a few glasses of Sky Vodka, sipping top notch beer & cider at an affordable tag and live there desired to start doing something different.
 
Live an exclusive life, be inspired and desire to find yourself alongside VIP folks in an affordable tag where class, style and elegance are found. Make your last Friday of the month a night of bliss!! Watch the space, Bon.Vivant.Premium.Media is preparing to take the center stage!!


Africanness in South Africa

Africanness is what I call it. It becomes very difficult for an ordinary citizen such as me to define and identify with Africanness in South Africa. Our country is filled with a lot of moral and spiritual uncertainty that is derived from a number of political decisions that were and are taken by politicians. Our fate as a country is barely bright and sound. 

I have learned in my country that Africans themselves are more brutal to one another than colonialists and the apartheid government was to them. There are a lot of stories that have made headlines about human trafficking recently, with the most popular story that occurred in Thailand. The question I ask myself is, who is to be blamed for this? Is it the Nigerians who misled and threatened the young girl from eRhini (Grahamstown) or is it the young girl from eRhini for being negligent for trusting her friend and a stranger or South African Government for allowing these Nigerians to enter the country and have a free role in doing their business where and when they want? 

I want to blame the Nigerians for merely loosing the inmost corners of their hearts in identifying with fellow Africans. The African nation is a dumfounded deformitation of what it is. I therefore, for these reasons commend the boldness displayed by the Apartheid regime, because they identified with and supported one another as the elite minority of the day. But we Africans with all political power and numbers in our hands fail to serve our moral obligation, which in my view is to identify as equals and unite towards gaining economic power. 

I don’t believe for a moment that as South Africans we should embrace being Africans in the midst of these evident criminal activities amongst one another. Things need to change, we all need to accept our moral obligation and stand our spiritual ground from an Africanist perspective as individual citizens and change the way we think about who we are. For now, this is my case!!

A RADICAL SHIFT..

Shifting the focus, from sports fanatic to workaholic, from workaholic to romance ally, from romance to academic pursuant, from academics to political activist, from politics I am shifting the focus. Through this journey I have grown fond of and connected to Jesus. It is sad realising what adds little or no value to your life, but its death not even taking note. 2012 is a new year and the country’s political, economical and social focus is taking a different direction one way or the other. We are entering a new chapter of our lives that’ll determine our destiny should we fail to do so ourselves.

I’m paving a different direction in my life now by removing all that subtracts the value my life is worth to adding those that bring much value in my life. I will lose friends, if I must and keep real or true friends that I know in my midst. Change places I go to if I should and discover new places that bring relevant networks for the direction I’m moving inn. This is the time to determine and create a new environment in my space that will steer my travel to the desired destination.

There are times where you need to be selfish in life. Be careful now; don’t let that compromise the material and spiritual interest of those around you in the process. At times you need to put you first, and your needs a priority in order to reach you destiny. I have defined my needs and where I want them to take me. I am shifting the focus for real.

How Hard Is It To Follow Instructions?

It is one most difficult thing to do. Some view it as blind obedience and some don’t. Depending where you are and what you doing that will determine the necessity to follow instructions. Being flexible here and there could ease the way in some instances.

When you always following instructions, it could lead to you minimising or suspending your ability to think and become a programmed flesh. This also minimises the ability for you to see a leader in you and merely become a follower. It allows little room for independency. Nobody wants anyone or anything to think they in control of their lives right, instructions are there to do just that.

As for me, I don’t follow instructions where there’s room to use a creative mind way out of the boundary scope. I’m not a follower, I am a leader and that is my attitude, I instruct and lead from the front and that’s that.

How do you step from the top of a 100-foot pole

Stepping from a 100-foot pole, that’s simple, what goes up must come down the science of gravity proves it. Depending on how you got to the top will ensure you a soft or hard landing. Hard work can never be achieved by a simple stride, but through sweat and determination. Cheating your way to the top or even stepping on people to get to the top can never be a safe or guaranteed way of occupying and maintaining your position, it will just simple point out how quickly you will fall.

It is the unnecessary measures that one takes that ensure them a steady recovery once they have to step down from even the highest peak. So then it would be wise to tread carefully so that you can ensure a speedy recovery.

We are what we do

There was a time when a man’s word was so powerful that they would swear on it, but nowadays it is worthless. We have been taught through past experience and behavior that one can never trust someone’s word. Hence we say actions speak louder than words. We as society and individuals are tired of the meaningless exchange of words all we want now is action, actions that will reflect as words, because indeed we have heard the empty promises and now we want to see.

A simple gesture of kindness and giving out your time is an action on its own. Everytime I walk home, there is a big board written, 'You have not lived until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.'

I hope people who walk or drive past this board actually take the time and read it. That qoute, basically covers the essence of life, what we should be as well as who we should be.

Fish falling frm the sky

Can fish ever fall from the sky? Sometimes that’s the question we should ask ourselves when posing a requesting to the government. I understand that the Lord created the earth and its inhabitants and made man ruler over them, just as we made the government ruler over its resources to be distributed amongst its people. Asking from government at times is likes squeezing water from a stone. We want housing, we want our basics necessities, but we are not getting much if any that is.

The onus then lies on us as individuals to start working and be creators of our own future. When working towards your personal goal fish does fall from the sky and it definitely will if it has to. So why not adapt the same approach of getting up and doing it for ourselves and thus bettering our communities.
