I bumped across this on the streets. This is directed to the vintage generation who once watched Bioskop screened on school walls in the evenings in the 70s to early 80s. There was a character called Tiki, real name Patrick Chiroodza, the character loved by all during that time. Yea ...the character is still alive.
"Prove yourself to yourself and not to others"
Trying to prove yourself to others is an endless, exhausting trap. Instead, channel your energy into self-validation: set your own standards, build trust through consistent action, and focus entirely on being better than you were yesterday. True confidence and peace come from keeping the promises you make to yourself.
@NyamudaJoseph@matigary You are onto something apo. Spirituality is what pple look for. Thus that link nekutsvaka mweya waChaminuka zvogona kufambidzana
I am one of those who have never bought into the Messi/Ronaldo GOAT debate for the simple reason that l saw Diego Maradona in action, Gascoigne in 94, later the real Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and even Jay Jay Okocha. This fascination with Messi and Cristiano ain't for me.
President @edmnangagwa’s motorcade en route to Parliament…. Do you see how beautiful Chairman Mao boulevard is???
The man built Zimbabwean infrastructure with very limited resources…. That’s why many Zimbabweans don’t mind giving him 2 MORE YEARS!
With all honesty, the game between Egypt and Argentina was not balanced. The officiating was against Egypt. The game was in Egypt's favor but officials had to make sure Argentina must win against all odds.
@HistoryFactou Yes pakaita favourstism. Asi zve Egypt also failed to withstand the pressure when it mattered most. Ndozoti tosvikepiko tichichema nenhau idzi. Ngatiiite zvedu tiise mari tione kuti hazvibudi here.
Handizive kuti why we have schools that pride themselves as "English Speaking Environment Only.”
Many years ago at Chishawasha Mission we had this nun who prescribed a Z$1 fine for speaking in Shona. Ini ndakagara ndazviramba. I never paid a single cent and ndaigara ndichitaura Shona. I don’t see the point why I should be punished for speaking rurimi rwaMai. In my opinion such a premise is a product of colonial prejudice. Ngatirege kufarira chingezi kusvika pachidanho chekutsoropodza mutauro wedu.
Rimwe zuva I attended an event. The guest speakers were first rate, nhanganyaya yanga iri Language and Communication. After their wonderful presentations they opened the floor for a Question & Answer session.
Ndakabva ndabvunza kuti what is the effect of language on impressions and communication? Ndikavaudza kuti inini I speak in Shona when I feel like speaking in Shona. I don’t feel the obligation whatsoever to speak in English kune vanhu vanonzwa Shona.
Mhinduro dzacho dzandakawana dzaive dzevanhu vaipokana neni vachiita sevanorwisa pfungwa yandainge ndaburitsa. Zvikachinzi nemumwe he-e dzimwe environment like this Shona haiite what what, plus if you speak Shona people will not take you serious.
Heya.
The same organisation had another event mangwana acho. The guest speaker who gave a keynote speech is the CEO of a blue chip organization. Guess what, she dazzled the audience and delivered a great presentation with profound lessons. 60% of her content was in Shona. She spoke without notes, managed to connect with the audience and impart wisdom.
After the event vanhu vakatanga kunditi, "Yeah, nezuro you were right about Shona."
I don’t know about you but inini I dont feel the obligation to speak in English because tasvika muMeikles or tasangana paAirport or you are Mr so and so. I use the language which best expreses point yandirikuda kuburitsa.
Speaking English is not a measure of intelligence or seriousness veduwe.
