Not since before the cave man discovered fire has South Africa been so damn dark.

In Knysna, on Friday, we had 2 load sheddings, the second unannounced. Minimum of 2 more years of this.

It’s a synonym for so much else that is wrong. I want to take one of those cracked silos and put it up someone bad’s arse.

We don’t need Zuma’s and Zille’s who have forgotten where they came from so as to trample us on the way to their selfish future. We especially don’t need neighbours who bleet and bleet like happy sheep about to become mutton packs at Pick ‘n Pay.

Where are the leaders??? We need people like Biko, Mandela, Huddleston, Tutu and Suzman in government. We need free press. We need civil disobedience.

Complaining isn’t an advert! We need normal people to never complain unless they’re going to stand up for themselves and the people they profess to love. There’s no love without action. It’s okay to be angry if you’re doing something to stop being angry.

We don’t need what we’ve got. We don’t need willful ignorance. We need YOU!

Being South African isn’t a subscription to online shopping. We have to earn the right to live where we do.

It’s not a thought for the day. It’s a thought for life.
