The Speaker

                                                 

 

Isn’t funny how everyone, most especially the youth isn’t really, really happy in life, and not many seem to be unhappy enough to take the responsibility to change it… Time to time I could also say the same about myself, I don’t know about you. The unfortunate thing is that we then tend to give other people or things the responsibility over our happiness and sadly we are never fully fulfilled by the results we get.

We let other people’s opinions about how we look, what we have or don’t have, what we are and what we can do, drown our own inner voice. These opinions then register as facts within our minds causing conflicts with our heart. Restricting and holding many people from living the best life they could ever experience.
 
 Such are some of the subjects that create the several issues on social and economic scale, I can go on and on about all that we as the youth face, imagine what kind of communities would we have if thousands of South African youth could be informed about subjects such as EQ (Emotional Intelligence) but I do hope that I have made a point with the above mentioned statement


Brief background info

During an early stage in my life I was blessed to live in a missionary house at my home church ”Healing Haven Ministries (Pentecostal Holiness Church)” and through the time I spent living there I have had no choice but to attend almost all the church services that would take place whenever I was home. Yes like any other young boy I would try to sometimes try to hide myself and bunk some of the services so that I could go play with my buddies but I wouldn’t succeed that often, it was kind of fun and funny thoughJ hahaha. Through the Sunday school classes, other church activities and being part of other social organizations such as Junior Achievement South Africa  I have adopted a strong positive attitude and values towards life which I honestly started to be aware of not so long ago in my life
 
Most of the details about how I have grown and all that I have gone through in the 21 years I’ve lived are detailed within my  BIOGRAPHY.
As I grew up, many people have always felt free to talk me about their personal problems that they would/going through, and this somehow open my eyes and made me realize that all the time that I spent at church and growing under my grandmothers and having older friends has given me knowledge and understanding, also losing both my parents during my teen ages has channeled me to look at life from a different prospective.
 
Through biblical teachings iv have learned many principles about life, I have also made and still do my own research about local and international cultures, religions, ideologies and philosophies, as a way to broaden up my understandings and thoughts
As I grew older my church then started to give me an opportunity to speak during certain church services, I have also been given the opportunity to speak during several student programs and functions organized by Junior Achievement South Africa and Serveral other platforms.

In short I am just a driven, fun and motivated guy with a VISION, trying to work and communicate with other young South Africans and the world as a whole about the much I may know about life that could make huge difference in all our lives.
