WHEN WATER IS THICKER...

They say that blood is thicker than water, but they never tell you which water you should stow away for safekeeping. Sometimes, we come across a current that we cannot fight against and in its blessing, we are taught the ideals of strength, love and complete surrender to the higher powers. There comes a point, when we must recognise that there are some waters that run thicker than blood.

I am so grateful to have gained a new sister, in this beautiful woman, Pheello (Khanyisa) Tsotsi.

Phee is one of those women who is so together, that it is sometimes frightening. I remember meeting her in the year 2009 and we happened to hit it off very well :) I was struggling with the idea of studying Law - a degree that I have much interest in - a career that I knew I lacked the desire to fulfill. As a thriving CA at the time, Phee advised me to follow my heart; as she could understand how unhappy I was at the time. Thanks to her inspiration, I continued with my studies through to the end of the following year and I struggled not only with my choice to persevere, but with the fact that I was being untrue to myself. She has always told me to be clear in my aspirations herewith and to really dive deep into something that I enjoy with all my heart. 

I am so honoured to have been an attendee of her beautiful wedding, to my "Brother", Mr. Lungi Tsotsi. What a truly inspirational union to witness. 

I wish you many days of happiness and an endless amount of undying love for one another.

THE LOVE BE-KNOWN.

(To Lungi and Pheello)

When your heart lies with the soul of another

Your soul enshrines the look of your lover,

When true love fills the spirit of your air.

The love that sings the early bird's song

The truth that sets you free.

The kiss, a familiar feeling of

The peace in harmony.

The love of a lover

Unity at its strength

The passion, innate

The fear, 

no longer there.

Best Love,

Khaleesi x

P.S. Make love!
