‘n Skrywer in wording

Onder die mensdom is daar menige mense met die talente om skrywers te word . Talente word binne ons gebore en ons almal is eintlik skrywers. Die skommeling van die regte stelling , die prikkeling van ‘n ander se gedagtegang en sy belangstelling.

As skrywer of wordend soek ek in ons direkte omgewing na die nodige inspirasie en verwag dat dinge om ons moet gebeur sodat die gebeure omskep kan word in woorde wat ons dan kan neerpen.

‘n Blog of website is die alternatiewe manier om kort gebeure en gedagtes neer te pen vir ander om te lees. Die besoeker , indien hy ge-inspireer word deur die artikel se reaksie kan baie beteken . Indien hy dit nie as ‘n inspirasie vir homself beskou nie dan loop hierdie skrywe se uitwerking net dood . Hou hy van wat hy lees kan tot gevolg he dat hy dit gaan oorvertel of verwys na sy vriendekring wat dan tot ‘n kettingreaksie gaan veroorsaak . Meer mense gaan dan inteken wat die website bekend gaan maak . Kommentaar help ook om die skrywer beter te laat verstaan wat sy lesers wil sien , hoe hulle voel oor die gesprekke en die leesstof. Dit help ook om meer inspirasie vir die skrywer te gee vir opvolg of nuwe skrywes.

Die taal afrikaans is vir menigte van ons so ‘n geheimpie want ons gebruiker raak al hoe minder en begin ook baie verengels . web forum kan ook aan die skrywers bystaan met die uitsoek van nuwe onderwerpe en tendense in ons samelewing. Hulle beskik ook oor die talent om hulle eie nuwe woordes en gesegdes te skep wat uniek is aan hulle skryfstukke

Ek nooi ieder en elk uit om kommentaar te lewer op hierdie skrywe. Deel ook u verwagteninge , stel idees van onderwerpe voor of gebruik net hierdie forum om te gesels . Ons beweeg weg van mekaar deur middel van immigrasie en werksverpligtinge . Kom ons bring alle afrikaans sprekende mense binne en buite Suid- Afrika om hier saam te gesels en weer net onsself te wees

I AM

I am strong, because I know my weakness



 I am beautiful because I am aware of my flaws



 I am Fearless, because I learn to recognize, illusion from real 



 I am wise because I learn from my Mistakes 




 I am a lover because I have felt Hate I can laugh because I have some sadness

TRY AND PROVE ME WRONG

Some Motivational 1 liners

This is the only life you have, so reach out with both hands, grab it and embrace it! The love that is lacking from your life is the love that you are failing to bring to it.” Why do we close our eyes when we pray, cry, kiss, and dream? Because the most beautiful things in life are not seen but felt only by heart. I wish we were less concerned about money and how we look and more interested in being truly happy and healthy If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of payments I hate when people judge others by their looks! I am me and that's what I want others to get to know...not because I look a certain way "If someone truly wants you, nothing will keep them away. They will do everything they can just to be with you." Sometimes you just need to distance yourself from people. If they care, they'll notice. If they don't, you know where you stand "Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were." ""Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony" "A wise man gets more use from his enemies than a fool from his friends." Gents don't make a woman your world, make her your atmosphere and she will make you her world!" Sometimes people don't notice the things we do for them until we stop doing them You know what's wrong with the word SORRY? It gives people the wrong idea that any mistake can be solved by a single word! "Don't loose the one you love over the one you like, as the one you like will leave you for the one they love" Deur al die moeilike tye..........moet ons net dankbaar wees vir alles wat ons het, en nie as vanselfsprekend beskou! Everything happens for a reason. But sometimes the reason is that you’re stupid and you make bad decisions Whatever you do, good or bad, people will always have something negative to say I am strong, because I know my weakness I am beautiful because I am aware of my flaws I am Fearless, because I learn to recognize, illusion from real I am wise because I learn from my Mistakes I am a lover because I have felt Hate I can laugh because I have some sadness Sometimes you just got to accept that some people can only be in your Heart, not in your Life A perfect relationship = two people never giving up on each other Don’t expect things to happen. It’s better to feel surprised than to feel disappointed

What does 2013 have in store for us?

With the New Year a few weeks old we all tend to think and guess what the year 2013 hold for us. Maybe now it’s the time to re-look our goals and objectives. Every new year we start of with new years resolutions. We start on a positive note but after a month or two some of our resolution has been broken and our response is normally that we would try again next year But let’s say this year is the last of our life. How objective would our goals, objectives or resolutions be. Would our mindset now change? Would we be more realistic in our goals? Do we have the power and the ability to reach our goals? Don’t we just set up goals because everyone told us to have goals in our life? Do we measure the worth of our goals, is it something we can do, and is it realistic, do we work hard and smart to reach our goals. We tend to lead a life of not caring for the day of tomorrow , are we just waiting to die or do we have measures in place to treat today as if it is the last day or year of our life . Do we want to prove to others that we can reach our goals? Share with others your goals in life or the year ahead and allow them to measure you against your goals. Would this measure then enable us to work harder towards our goals and objective? Let your friends be the judges of your goals and you are the judge of their goals. Isn’t competition better than just competing on your own? Think about it and set up good and solid goals for your life this year

Demis Roussos concert 15 December 2012

A tribute to a great singer.

 Last in South Africa 37 years ago but brought back this year by Frans Swart from Lefra Productions, to perform live to his millions of supporters here.  I was there to watch this amazing spectacular show that took place on 15 December in the Liqui-Fruit amphitheatre in Paarl. An experience that I have to share with the rest of South Africa

Driving from George we arrived at the amphitheatre at 15H00 .Several people was already waiting in the heat and soon everybody was sitting in the closest shady spot and picnicking , chatting and greeting each other. A friendly and spontaneous atmosphere hung in the air. Gates opened at 17h30 and the crowds moved into the theater environment. Soon all the embankments around the theatre were full of awaiting theater goers drinking wines, refreshments and socializing. Friendly people in their ages (not much young people – they don’t enjoy pure good music) gathering around and waiting in anticipation for the start of the concert. The organizers have gone to great length to make this evening a memorable well organized event.

Then it is 20H00 – Everybody seated and waiting for the appearance. The last lighting preparations are underway and then the big moment arrived. The “Greek god” is to appear on stage. The band members were on stage already. Then came a shock to me. I completely forgot that Demis Roussos is well in his sixties and not much had been heard from this singer over the years. Demis was “escorted” onto the stage and placed on a chair in front of his microphone. A silence was felt in the stadium momentarily but when the master started to sing and talk all of these shockwave disappeared and anticipation of a great show filled the air. With an obvious sickness state of Demis Roussos he made up with his enthuisiastic performance and singing ability . He still had control over the crowd and people were singing along and still continue idiolising him for his voice and personality . At this moment my image of him as a legend changed from legend to LEGEND OF THE LEGENDS. He inspires us with his performance and his ability and dedication to his music . At his age still to take on a world tour makes him more than a legend , in fact one of the biggest stars in music. We were treated to his old songs, Italian opera songs; Sing along songs, Greek dance music and just his voice of excellence that filled the theatre and the ecstasy of the crowd. People were dancing and singing along and in this two hour show the crowd was joined together, forgot about their problems and was joined as one person.

This show was an eye opener for me. I forgot how good his voice and music was. Secondly I forgot about how grateful I must be. I have no sickness; I am 54 years old and complaints about every small little thing that happens in my life. I felt so ashamed. Here on stage was man well in his sixties, maybe more sick than I can be and still had the guts to pack and do a world tour because his fans would like to see him again. He is again a hero in my eyes and I wish Demis Roussos every of the best in his career and hope we don’t have to wait another 37 years to see him.

Homemade poem of normal man's life

We are born to a life of good

Filled with the offers of life’s food

There are days when you are down or up

Why do we experience more down than up?

The sequence of life is a gamble

It turns our life into shambles

How high we set our hope of achievement

We never accept our real targets of gain

We are the best in what we offer

But people around us beg to differ

We get played the regular foul ball

That is completely against our call

Why do we differ from others

Aren’t we to love one another?

We are so different in our motives

We live worlds apart with ulterior motives

Why do people tend to fight each other?

Why do we differ in our believes

Do we think ourselves better than the rest?

Or are we not always at our best

Why do we continuous suffer in our pain?

Do we have nothing good to gain?

Are we the sufferers of the world?

And part of the failures of the world

Do we always have to wonder about successes?

Do we have to accept our life full of failures?

Why is there nobody around when you are in need?

But those people are always there when they are in need

Billions of people in the world

But only a handful of Samaritans

Difficult to seek them out

What is life if no help about?

People turn the blind eye to those in need

Are they only looking for attention or gain?

They don’t see the real pain

They live in their own world of happiness

We live a life of happiness and mostly sorrow

From whom will we be able to attempt to borrow?

The joys and happiness of the people around us

Sometimes withheld us of other peoples trust.

Lady Gaga

Hei, what’s new? Sy’s dan seriously ryk!

Hoe cool is dit nie? Laaidy Gaga kom Suid-Ôfrika toe vir twee shows. Ak love hôr. Say’s amazing. May pô het soos in totally uitgefreak toe ak sê ak wil na hôr show in Jo-hies toe gôn. Hay sê say ak kan vergeet om te gôn. Hay sê Laaidy Gaga is evil en dra weird klere en stuff.

May pô moet net, chill. Jeez. Ak is nie meer soos in ’n klein dogtertjie nie.

Dis ook nie asof Laaidy Gaga soos in saeks op stage het nie. Okay, say het al ’n splif in een van hôr shows gerook en sy drô hierdie funny outfits, maar, hei, what’s new? Hier in Pretôria kan jay ook ’n splif koop. Dûh?

Hier in Pretôria drô mense ook hierdie weird, random outfits. Laaidy Gaga care actually vir die armes. Say’s vir world peace.

Say het geld gegee vir ôlmal wôt se huise laas in die tsoenômi weggespoel het. Say het soos in op haar private jet geklim en Hongkong toe gevlieg... Of was dit nou China?

Wôr wôs die tsoenômi nou weer? Anyway, say’t soontoe gevlieg in hôr private jet en vir die mense van die tsoenômi geld en stuff gôn gee om te wys sy soos in seriously care. Hoe amazing is dit nie?

En say’s ’n vegetariër, ’n veggie. Dis hoekom say eenkeer met ’n klomp steaks aan hôr lyf vasgemôk op stage gegôn het. Dit wôs om te protest teen die mense wat so randomly vleis eet – Blou Bul-steaks en stuff.

Toe ek dit vir may pô sê, toe vông hy soos in ’n fit.

Hektiek.

“Chill net, pô. Okay?” sê ak toe vir hom. “Hoekom freak pô nie ook uit oor Natanië-ôl nie? Jeez.”

My pô en mô is soos in serious fans vôn Natanië-ol. Hulle love Natanië-ol. Hulle dink hay’s soos in amazing. Hulle gôn soos in na sy shows toe, en my mô koop van sy boeke en spices en stuff.

Hêlou? Natanië-ol dra soos in rokke op stage en gebruik make-up.

Die mense is net jealous op Laaidy Gaga omdôt say ’n famous celebrity en seriously ryk is. Natanië-ol is nie eens op Twitter nie. Laaidy Gaga het soos in forty million followers op Twitter.

Hoe cool moet dit nie wees nie? Jay stôn soos in die oggend op en dis koud en stuff en jay voel depro, dan vat jy soos in jou iPhone en tweet: “Dis koud en stuff en ak is depro.” Dan lees jaouw forty million followers dit en tweet terug en sê hulle love jaouw, jay moet beter voel en stuff.

Laaidy Gaga noem ons haar Little Monsters. Say care vir haar fans, sy care soos in genuine vôr ons. Say sê ons moenie lat iemand ons soos in abuse en stuff nie. “Paws up, Little Monsters,” sê sy altyd.

My favorite song van hôr is: “Baby I was Born This Way”. Dis ’n amazing song. Ek love dit. Ons Little Monsters gôn volgende week daar voor die stage staan en dit saam met hôr sing wanneer sy hier is.

Hoe cool gôn dit nie wees nie?

Wie baat by bemarking

Maatskappy bemarking

Advertering in die gedrukte media is ‘n noodsaaklikheid vir die voortbestaan van ‘n maatkappy en ook vir die gedrukte media hetsy gemorspos of uistaande advertensies.

Koerante en promosie maatskappye se inkomste en salarisse is afhankilik van die hoeveelheid advertensies wat geplaas word. Kostes wissel ook van die groottes en hoeveelheid advertensies wat geplaas word. Korting word ook toegestaan aan adverteerders wat weekliks of maandliks advertensies plaas. Voorwaar ‘n groot en kompeterende mark tussen koerante en ander gedrukte marke. Hulle werf voortdurend en met agressie kliente om hulle koerant spasies te vul. Baie meer kan genoem word oor hierdie prosesse , maar kom ons laat dit daar.

Maatskappye word geklassifiseer onder Franchises , groot en klein ondernemings wat meeding met dieselfde tipe produkte en bemarkings strategie . Sommige maatskappy stel selfs bemarkings agente aan om sodoende hulle kanse met verkope en wins te bevorder ten koste van ander soortgelyke onderneming . Deels van uitgawes van die groot , medium en klein ondernemings bestaan uit maandelikse uitgawes vir bemarking.

Bogenoemde waarnemings het baie betrekking tot groterige ondernemings maar die doel van hierdie skrywe is om aandag meer te vestig op die onderneming wat ek noem die entrepaneurs onderneming.

Weens so baie afdankings in die werkplek en die abnormale werkloosheids syfers is die enigste oplossing om entrepaneur te gaan word. Sy eie klein besigheid om vir hom ‘n inkomste te skep . In sy onderneming lyk sy begroting soos volg : Huistoe vat geld vir kos , miskien salaris vir 1 werker , Krag en broodnodige skoonmaakmiddels ens. Watwou daar is geen geld vir bemarking nie. Om winste te laat groei moet hy bemarking doen , maar sonder bemarking kan hy nie sy onderneming , sy trots , uitbrei en laat groei nie. Wat  ‘n catch22 situasie bevind hy homself nie. Dan nader hy wel die koerant ens om ‘n ou klein advertensie te plaas . Maar dadelik word hy geklassifiseer as ‘n groot premium maatskappy wat hy nie is nie , maar die media het mos net een tarief. One for all and all for one.

Nou vra ek graag die vraag . Hoe kan jule verwag van ‘n klein entrepaneurs maatskappy om sy besigheid te laat groei as daar nie iemand is wat bereid is om hom by te staan nie. Hoekon kan groter maatskapppe nie genader word om hierdie klein ondernemings by te staan en sodoende die vrye mark stelsel net verder te versterk en uit te brei. Profiele word gehandhaaf en groot maatskappye se beeld word op die gedrukte media uitgebeeld. Maar wat die beeld van die entrepaneur.  He thy ‘n beeld en het hy ‘n bestaansreg in ons samelewing

Hoekom spot ons iemand met ‘n gebrek

Is ons almal dan so vol van onself  , dat ons dink ons is volmaak. Dan spot ons met andere wat nie so volmaak soos ons is nie. Maar is ons werklik so volmaak soos ons dink.

Nee ons is ook nie volmaak nie. Ons kort die eienskap waardering. Die waardering vir die feit dat ons al ons sintuie besit. Dat die lewe vir ons goed is . Dat ons aanvaarbaar is vir die andere volmaakte skepsels in die wereld.

Ons weet nie hoe dit voel om te sukkel sonder ‘n oog of ‘n oor of ‘n been of ‘n arm of enige noodsaaklike legement.

Ons kla wel oor die onodige dinge in die lewe wat vir ons noodsaaklik voel maar ‘n persoon met ‘n gebrek kla baie mider as ons. Alhoewel hy deur middel van sy gebrek minder vriende as ons is hy nog steeds meer gelukkiger en besit meer wysheid en geluk as ons.

Ons kan behoorlik skaam voel oor ons eie dade teenoor ander met gebrek en net een keer met meer begrip kyk en luister na daardie persoon met ‘n gebrek

What type of women inspires you?

So often the question arises to the male person and he has to answer the question.

His immediate thoughts link him to personalities. To an actress, a beautiful neighbor or friend, even in the direction of the women down the street that feeds hungry children on a daily basis.

I agree fully with this type of answer and thought. But try to think deep down in your inner self. Let your thoughts and desires be the same as mine

Isn’t the most inspiring women not maybe your wife or girl friend. You wouldn’t have married her if she didn’t inspire you. It’s the small things of a wife that we tend to forget. She devotes her life to you and your children. She’s always there when you need her. She has to support you but must also bear the grunts and problem of her other family that she has left behind to be with you. She hides her pain and sorrow better that any man can dream to do. She often cries when she is alone but put up her smile when we need her.

Let’s not forget our wives and honor them for the good that they bring within us and the joy we share together

Three hoorays for the inspiring women of the nation. Our wives and girlfriends

An Outcry for Help

Millions of People in South Africa are desperate for help.

Help required might be assistance for support, food, Financials and the help for employment. They raise an outcry for help from organizations and ordinary people.

Are we listening to their outcries? Are we trying to help them? Do we render our support to them?

They are in need and some of these people are too ashamed to cry out. But most of us know them but we still deny them their right to survive.

Are we too busy getting rich and enriching ourselves? Did we forget we were in similar situations previously?

People of South Africa. Open your hearts and listen to the needy. Take off 1 minute from you schedule and listen. You might be the person they are reaching out towards.

Die liefde vir Geld

Die  LIEFDE vir  Geld.... Dit  kan 'n huis koop...  Maar nie 'n woning nie. Dit  kan 'n horlosie koop... Maar nie tyd nie. Dit  kan vir jou 'n posisie koop... Maar nie respek nie.   Dit  kan vir jou 'n bed koop... maar nie slaap nie. Dit  kan 'n boek koop... maar nie kennis nie.   Dit  kan medisyne koop... maar nie gesondheid nie.   Dit  kan selfs vir jou bloed koop...  maar nie lewe nie. So,  jy sien, geld is nie alles nie en dikwels veroorsaak dit pyn en  kommer... Ek vertel jou dit omdat jy my familie is en as 'n familielid wil ek jou pyn en lyding wegvat!!  So ....... Stuur  vir my al jou geld   en ek sal vir jou verlos van jou  lyding.  Skakel my vir my bankrekeningnommer. Per slot van rekening, waarvoor is familie dan daar,  uh??

Lions - Semi Finals

For the Lions the Currie Cup has come to an end . Believed by me to be the favorites they lost in the final minutes – unfortunately. In no way will I single out a player that could have caused this mishap. We have tried hard and proved that even with the relegation of Super 15 we still kept our heads high and proved that we are still a force to be reckoned with. My congratulations on all the players for an awesome season and the spirit amongst them.

May the staff and players now take the next few months to rest and to clear all their negative feelings. We have lot’s of work to do for preparations for next year. 2013 will be the most important year in the history of GLRU and I wish all the best of greatness and success for their futures. Next year will not be fun – but we look forward to new heights and improvements to this new young team of the Lions. Let’s carry on to built more friendship and surprise our enemies.

Last , but not least . GLRU have lots of supporters and I urge management to set an email list of all these supporters. Then send out a weekly newsletter to all of your supporters and keep in touch with what’s happening. Lots of supporters do not have internet access but rely on emails to keep them updated.

On a lighter note – Seen on social network yesterday

Lions have a new sponsor for next year. Omo Liquid – Oe Eh Eh – only 1 cap is enough – Oe Eh Eh – only 1 cap

South Africa vs Nieu-Zeeland

The final test of the super series proved to be one of the best games of the season. The Springboks came into this match with spirit and high expectations . They played a good game . Their overall game was of a high standard but they forgot about the pace and the greatness of a good All Black game . Richie Mcall lead his team with proud and Honor. Many a youngster can learn the game by the leadership and work rate of Richie Mcall . True sportsman for Nieu Zeeland and the world. He might be playing un Orthodox and should have been blown for penalties on more than one occasion but we must admit he is a good player. Without his leadership the All Blacks will lose ground and effort.

The springboks played their heart out and faulted on more than one occasion. We cannot blame nervousness or lack of expertise . The played a normal game with not one player standing out as a hero. Their game plan was good but they lack in defence . To many handling errors cost them the game. Their kicking ability was better but there is still a lot to learn.

We might have forgotten but are now reminded why the All Blacks are always (most of the times) the number 1 rugby playing nation in the world

Happy or Unhappy

Don't worry be Happy

Here is a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happy
In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy......

Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The land lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Look at me I am happy
Don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number
When you worry call me
I make you happy
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got not girl to make you smile
But don't worry be happy
Cause when you worry
Your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down 
So don't worry, be happy (now).....

There is this little song I wrote
I hope you learn it note for note
Like good little children
Don't worry, be happy
Listen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry
You make it double 
Don't worry, be happy......
Don't worry don't do it, be happy
Put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down like this
Don't worry, it will soon past
Whatever it is
Don't worry, be happy
