The Journey Of Samkelisiwe Nzama

The Journey of Samkelisiwe Nzama

PROLOGUE :

It has been said that you do not wish your enemies to die because you might lose your family members each day ,month ,week or rather each hour.It also been said that witchcraft starts when you get into a competition with people who are not in a competition with you .

The more I laughed was the more I spent my eyes closed ."Ngaze nganethwa ngimcane "in this journey .Not everyone was genuinely happy for me .I had to let my dreams be bigger than my fears ,my action louder than my words and my faith stronger than my feelings .

"Speak less of your plans black child " I wish I had known that before the journey that was ahead of me .

A very old men had told me in my dreams to ,go to the gate and get a small soil ,mix it with three little stones .But why? He said I must pour hot water into these stones and and cover myself with a blanket and say the following :

"I call you my ancestors, am here as your child and am asking you to heal me as I put my life in your hands ".

"Do not test the ancestors 

Do not test the ancestors 

Do not test the ancestors 

Do not test the ancestors"

He said repeatedly with a fading voice .

There was somethings I heard to learn through the storm . Abanye benu sesimane siyahleka nani .Kdala aba profethi basikhuza ngani .

I was tired of chasing after people ,I was tired of saving them from themselves .I was tired and exhausted of giving to much for receiving too little .See the problem is ,I have given more than I should have and that sold myself or rather my blood to dark demons who collected it in two hands  .But only I can save myself and I did not need a pair of weak hands to attempt to catch me as I fall .
