Supersport United FC's Hatrick And Nataniel's Frank Advice

* Supersport United Football Club winning its 3rd Premier League title.
I just love this 'Matsatsantsa ase Pitori' (as Supersport is affectionately known) success
story.Once again they won the title against the run of play, so to speak.At the beginning of
the 2009/2010 season the usual suspects of the big three of Kaizer Chiefs,Orlando Pirates and
Mamelodi Sundowns were punted as potential league winners.These three not only have a big
support base - which helps if you want to win things - but they also have the financial muscle
to buy the best players.
But once again Mr Gavin Hunt - the Supersport coach - and his charges have showed us up all.

"To you Mr Hunt and your players we say congratulations are in order.May you
keep winning until you get that call up to the national team."


* An interview with the artist and stage performer - Nataniel - that appeared in the
Sunday Times newspaper of two weeks ago(14/02/10).I was particularly blown away by the
advice he had for SA's up and coming artists and performers on how to succeed in this field.As far as I am concerned his advice is also applicable to starting entrepreneurs.
Nataniel went:

"If you work(hard),you will succeed.People are scared of work....Many
South African artists are lazy.I see these so-called celebrities in borrowed
clothes attending all these opening nights - they are all over the social pages -
and I think,'When do you get the time to do it?'Success comes down to
stamina and endurance.My first 10 years (in show business) was a living hell.
I would cut up duvets to make costumes.But I never gave up,even though the
one-man cabaret thing was not the 'in' at the time.I was determined that I would
do it or die trying.I did play the organ during cremations to pay for my studies,but
I never waitered.So,my advice is : if you have a dream,don't get pregnant,don't
get a day job,just do that thing that you're good at....A real job is just a distraction
and it makes someone else rich.It's my 24th year on stage,and my family still can't
believe I make a living from this."

What more can we say Nataniel.Thanks for that awesome,awesome advice.

Centuries Galore from Hashim Amla And SABC's Campaign for Haiti

* The great performance of Proteas' batsman Hashim Amla in the recent two test
series against the Indian national cricket team.These tests were played in India.
Hashim managed to score 3 consecutive centuries.This means he scored more than 100 runs
each time he went out to bat in all the innings that he played.These three batting feats
included a double century score of 253 in the first test match which helped South Africa win this
match.The other two scores that followed in the second test were 114 and 123 respectively.
It was just unfortunate that our national cricket team ended up drawing the series after they
narrowly lost the last test match to the Indians.
But the drawing of the series should not detract from Hashim Amla's outstanding batting.He was praised by even the Indians themselves.They noted his calmness and focus while at the crease.

We would like to send our 'big ups' to Hashim Amla:

"You truly 'represented' my man."



* Our public broadcaster - the SABC - joining the efforts around the world to
raise funds to help rebuild Haiti.The SABC initiated its own campaign called 'HELP
REBUILD HAITI'.This campaign was kicked off last month with a live telethon where various presenters of its TV programmes took pledges for cash from the public.This campaign to raise funds for Haiti is still running.You can sms the word HAITI to 38722.Each sms will cost you R10.
Any and every initiatitive that is taken to relieve the suffering in Haiti after the recent
devastating earthquake there has be commended.

Lovers' Day And State of the Nation Speech

* It being St Valentines this past Sunday(14/02/10).I always say we must do all we can to increase the love we have for one another in the country.And if this love is directed at the fairer sex,it is even better.
The reason why there is so much strife in the world today is because of lack of love for our fellow
human beings.This is in my honest and humble opinion.
Let's have more days in which we can express more love towards one another,I say.
Here are a few suggestions of my own:

1.'Give a Stranger a Hugg' Day
2.'Greet Your Nasty Neighbour with a Smile' Day
3.'Make Peace with all Your Exes' Day

Here is hoping that all you ladies were spoiled rotten on Sunday.


* A truly commemorative state of the nation speech by President Jacob Zuma last
Thursday(11/02/10).In thanking the various persons and parties that helped to liberate this
country,the President rolled back the years.And this was in keeping with the theme of this
year's speech which to celebrate the release from jail of former President - Nelson Mandela - 20 years
ago.
What I found particularly interesting in this speech was the lesser well known fact of the roles played by some members of the previous National Party government in the release of Nelson Mandela and the rest of the political prisoners.For example,I didn't know that it was actually P W Botha - the then head of state - who initiated the discussions about the possible release of political prisoners.I had always thought that all the changes came with F W de Klerk,who took over from Botha.
President Zuma also acknowledged the role played by the former Nationa Party Justice Minister - Kobie Coetzee in the subsequent discussions about this release of political prisoners.

"We have come a long way indeed Mr President."

Our FEEL GOOD poem of the week:


Love Is In The Air
_________________

When you forgive,
When you forget,
At a drop of a hat.
Love is here.
Love is real,
When you feel this joy,
This happiness,
When 'love' is nearby.
When you are totally blind,
Completeley oblivious,
To warts and all,
Love is trully in the air.

Today 20 Years Ago And An SMS from Mrs Essenelle Julius

* Recalling the day that our former President - Nelson Mandela - was released from prison.
On 11th Feb 1990 the National Party government,led by Mr F W De Klerk,released Mr Mandela from
the Victor Vester prison.Mr Mandela had been behind bars for 27 years.
This release paved the way for our first democratic elections in 1994.
This week marks the 20th anniversary of that momentous event.
This release of Mr Mandela was one of those events that stays in ones memory forever.Like the assassination of SAPC leader - Chris Hani,or the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Centre twin towers,one remembers exactly where they were when they heard the news.
As a country we may still have many challenges,but Mzansi is in a much better place compared to 20
years ago.And for this we want to thank Mr Mandela and his comrades for their self-sacrifice in getting us to where we are today.
We want to thank Mr F W De klerk ,too, for having the courage to do the unthinkable at the time.


* A friend of the Feel Good Movement - Mrs Essenelle Julius - sending us an sms that simply blew me away.The message contained in here and its essence is what I would like to send out to all my friends who for some reason I have lost touch with.
Mrs Julius wrote:

"I live by faith and not by sight.So whether I see you
or not,talk to you or not,sms or not,I know that you
are still the same: a treasure worth keeping."

Thank you Essie babes.

Our FEEL GOOD poem of the week:

20 Years Ago
____________

20 years ago.
Mzansi was a wasteland.
She was desolate.
Then, the Nats saw the light.
Now she is thriving.
20 years ago,
De klerk became a real leader.
A man of intergity.
20 years ago Mandela became real.
And not just a figment.
A nation's hopes were raised 20 years ago.
And they were not dashed.
Thank you '20 years ago'.
