The Journey Of Samkelisiwe Nzama

It had been said that childhood is the fiery furnace in which we are melted down to essentials and that essentials shaped good. I mean I do not miss my childhood, but I miss the way I took pleasure in small things, even was greater things crumbled.

I could not control the world the world I was in, could not walk away from things or people or moments that hurt, but I took joy I the things that made me happy.

Going back to Samkelisiwe Nzama’s childhood reversing the whole journey to the childhood everything was just perfect as is. I went to a primary school somewhere around town where I lived.

That where my name changed from Samkelisiwe to Sam.Thats where everything was just so perfect. I lived, talked, ate, spoke and laughed like other teenagers did. I had a lot of friends, more than I can count with my fingers.

Am talking coloured, Sotho and Xhosa. We would go out to a nearby swimming pool in town near the magistrate court. That where our friendship would develop even more.
