It affects us all. Directly or indirectly. The struggle for a better salary is for a good cause, but can it still be good when our basic human rights are in jepoardy?

It’s time something needs to be done. School-going children around the country are influenced. They can’t have an education because there are no teachers to educate them. I truelly understand why our teachers are on strike…both my parensts are teachers…but is it really necessary to beat children up, to tear up their June exam papers?

There is a guy in our town who watches the cars at the spar sentrum. His name is John. He is in his third year of matric. Will he have to be in matric for a fourth year again just becuase the government and educaters can’t come to an agreement??

Somewhere this thing has to stop. People, children are being hurt. We need to speak for those who can’t speak for themselves.

I’ll be posting more about this. Going to do some research. This is something that affects everyone living in South Africa. It’s going to take some serious thought.

Sorry for the long absence…been writing exam. But anycase, I wrote biology today…and it’s amazing.

Amazing how a flower can be so complicated. I’m not going to bore you with details. Just the basics. All living things are made up off cells. Each cell has it’s own functions…it needs energy, creates energy. Inside each cell there are smaller organelles which also each has it’s own functions…

Cells come together to create tissue, tissues work together to form organs (like the heart, liver, etc…), organs work together to form different systems in our body, like the digestive system. Different systems work together to form the body… And thats only in humans..

But OK, enough biology for one day…The point I’m trying to make is that something so simple looking – like the human body – is actually very complicated.

A tree seems so uncomplicated, but if we take a closer look, things just widen out. There’s more to it than what the naked eye can see. This made me wonder…

The Bible says that God created the world in 7 days…when I look at just the human body…I find it difficult to believe. Such complexities in such a short amount of time…seems a tad unrealistic… Is there a possibility of those days actually being years???

I know that nothing is impossible for God…but still. God must have tried out some things on plants and humans and not have been satisfied??? Then he changed a few things that everything works perfectly. Is this even possible?? God not being satisfied with his creation??

Confession time…

I’ve been in a short relationship…very short. But it didn’t work out. Now were back in a friendship… Trouble is it doesn’t feel like a friendship. I still have feelings for him and this kind of complicates everything. How do you go from a “relationship” back to a friendship??

It’s not easy… It hurts… I really want to be his friend, but I can’t seem to push the feelings for him aside. It’s confusing.

God isn’t here. He’s not with me. He left me. He feels so far away…

Ever felt like this before?? I did. It’s not a very good feeling. Being left alone. Struggling to trust God. To let things fall into His hands. It’s a trust issue. Filled with uncertianty. Never knowing what’s going to happen next. Always trying to see the bright side but never actually be able to see it.

These past three weeks were hell… With my mom having cancer and trying to balance school and a possible relationship. I cried, I screamed…I did everything I could possibly think of… But not once did I turn to God. Not once.

I don’t know why. He just felt so far… It felt like I could scream my lungs to death but He didn’t hear me. It’s a trust issue. God let’s everything happen for a reason. In a world full of uncertainty, there is still the certainty of God.
