Most people are as free as their minds can detain them or as imprisoned as their spirit can disallow them to contain it. If every man was born with wings on his mind to fly! How come few are willing to pay the price to take off to the skies? After all thinking is free. If that is the case -flying should be a liberating and an exhilarating experience, when left in the hands of the owner of that mind. Otherwise everyone would easily accomplish and fulfill their personal goals to reach their destiny without sacrificing their power to allow someone else to drive their goals or ambitions for them.

Today black people in South frica claim to be free but, most of them live in poverty and strife, unemployed and in dire straits. South Africa’s education system is designed to produce educated slaves, who have been deprived the ability to turn their talents into creative and thriving enterprises that have nothing to do with Government Tenders.

Are we free because we have wings and can fly? Or our minds are controlled by someone else other than ourselves? Perhaps we are not aware of the power of our capabilities. Because someone else is doing the thinking for us i.e. politicians? Maybe our mind is just another gray matter that was placed there by accident in our heads to decorate our physiology and psych, to look intelligent and sophisticated in the eyes of the world.

Today the country is called democratic because black people have a vote. Is our vote worthy of anything to the people we’ve placed in power to acknowledge that we are happy and are living our dream of Shangri-la?
