Season's greetings; filled with hope for a better start this time around as we dub 2021 the year of vaccination, and a year to remember those who were there for us in our darkest hour. After a past year of misgivings, I hope we will spread the message of "Etisha pele bao ba go beago pele" in SePedi or in English "Put to the fore those who place you first" in this times of shared limited resources.
Circumstances shape mindsets, no matter the outcomes being good or bad, and that's what's happening now going forth. There's no doubt that the pandemic has come with it an opportunity for new markets and a new way of living (or should I say New World Order?). The same did happen a thirty odd years ago via HIV/AIDS. Before then, people were mating differently from how it's done now with condoms. Fast forward to today, the world's population is going to live and behave in a fashion unlike in pre-pandemic times, and the true fact is that our lives will never be the same ever again.
In this trying times we join hands with one goal of defeating the pandemic. What needs be said and taught should be the message of forging new lasting relations for post-pandemic era. It shouldn't be a secret that whoever not on your side in this time will not form part of the future inventory of your beneficiation cycle. If they are not here with you now they're simply not there for you and best you remember that when the situation gets better.
In conclusion: if I fail you now I am failing our future and as such I am erasing myself from your life. The person you surround yourself with now matters if they're sticking with you. Truth is, that person who is there in your down moment and assuring you time and again how it's okay and about how soon it'll be better is very much important to you even if they have nothing to offer than those with gold and diamond who promise them should you make it or wanting you after you've made it. So, treat that person with love and respect, and put them first...dp
