* As we start the festive season proper(December month) here are a few words to ponder on
forgiveness.This extract is from an excellent report on gratitude called The Astonishing Power of Gratitude,written by Wes Hopper(www.horncreek.com).Each time we read this report we are highly inspired.Inspired to become better human beings.The section in the report on forgiveness is losely quoted below:
"Forgive everyone who ever did anything you have been carrying a
grudge about.The guy who cheated you in that business deal.The sister-in-law
who never repaid the R50.The teacher who gave you the 'F' that you didn't deserve.The
ex-spouse who dragged you through the ugly and expensive divorce.Everyone.Anything.
Forgiveness is not something that you do for the other person,it is something you do for
yourself.
Remember that the Universe works by law,not by chance.There are no coincidences in the
people that show up in our lives.And becuase the Universe is friendly,these people don't
show up to punish us,but often to teach us."
* Here in Mzansi we call a five-fingered clap on the face a 'mpama'.This past Monday night Barcelona FC - our favourite team in Europe - gave their archrivals Real Madrid FC a 'mpama'.They hammered them 5-0 in a La Liga football game.In the process 'Barca' made all of us who are fans deliriously happy.
In a game that Mourinho - the Real Madrid coach - will never ever forget,Barcelona gave his team a footballing lesson.'Barca' didn't just win by a big margin,but they did so while toying with the Madrid players.Fans at Nou Camp - Barcelona's home ground where the game took place - and those watching from around the world were thoroughly entertained.
Now,can Mourinho and his star player - Ronaldo - please shut up,"Quietly enjoy your humble pie."
And how about this joke doing the rounds:
Ronaldo(Real Madrid star player) :"God sent me to earth to teach people how to play football."
Lionel Messi(Barcelona star player):"I didn't send anyone."
* ON THE FGM Ts SALES FRONT - PART 15
Two things happened this week that got me excited.The first one was having two people who have FGM Ts already expressing interest in buying another t-shirt.They wanted this T in a different colour to their previous ones.
To hear that people love our Ts so much that they want a second one was humbling.
The second good happening was when a friend I had told about our Ts and given our flyer to - maybe six months ago - phoning me out of the blue to order not one,but two FGM t-shirts.This telephonic ordering was a first.I nearly fell off my chair.
This order out of the blue further emphasised the value of telling as many people as you can about the stuff that you are 'pushing'.Sometime down the line they may still get back to you to buy.
In both cases above I did not have the prefered sizes and colours.Infact,my current stock of t-shirts is now finished.But while I wait for my next stock - possibly after the December holidays because the factories are also winding down for Christmas - I will continue to pound the streets.I am carrying one sample t-shirt in my bag.It is important to keep the momentum of getting leads going.These I can then follow up on once the new stock arrives.

Our FEEL GOOD poem of the week:
Forgiven
________
The criminal elements,
Who ochestrated our incarceration,
I forgive you.
The lawyers,
Who took our money and ran,
You are forgiven too.
The 'friends',
Who read 'Behind Bars',
And then disappeared,
I have forgotten already.
The neighbours,
Who pretended to be with us,
When we were down,
But were enjoying it,
It's OK.
I forgive you too,
Those I didn't mention.
Have a cheerful,
And festive season.
