Xa ndandisemncinci, ndafumanisa ukuba ixesha elikhoyo alikho mnandi. Ndingathanda ukuba namava okufika kwexesha okwenzeka kudala. Okanye, kwixa elizayo elikude, ngaba uhambo oluya kwinto engaziwayo yendalo luya kuqala ngokungaboni? Namhlanje, ngeenwele ezingwevu ezingwevu kancinci, ndiyaqonda ukuba: siphila kwelona xesha libalulekileyo nelonwabisayo loluntu. Iya kuba sisizukulwana sethu esiya kuyilwa kwiinkulungwane ezizayo. Asingobantwana bethu okanye abazukulwana bethu, silikamva eli.
Kule meko, umbuzo ubuzwe kum ixesha elide yintoni enokwenzeka ukuba ibekho xa ujonga. Impendulo yam, mphefumlo wam wobomi, ukubambe ezandleni zakho. Ukukhetha akunikezelwanga kwezinye iindlela kuzo zonke iinkalo zobomi. Ukhetho aluchazanga nje ulwazi oluthembekileyo, olungafakwanga ulwazi. Ukhetho aluhlanganisi kuphela izihloko zakudala ezifana nezopolitiko kunye noqoqosho kukhuseleko lwasentlalweni, kwezendalo kunye nezilwanyana, ukuvelisa izinto ezintsha kunye nokuzinza kwengqondo ebanzi. Inketho ifuna ukuba ngaphezulu. Inketho ifuna ukukukhapha ukuya kubudala obutsha-obugxekayo, obunethemba, kwinqanaba lokwenyani.
Ayilothuba nje lokuba uKhetho kuhlelo lwalo lokuqala lubekelwe umbono omtsha wehlabathi. Inzala yokwenyani yomntu kunye neplanethi ziya ngokuza ngaphambili. Kodwa ezi ayisosizo "iindlela" ezizodwa. Endaweni yoko, intshukumo enkulu, ebanzi neguqukayo iyinkqubo yokuqhuba umphembelelo kwikamva eliqinisekileyo. Kwixesha elizayo, uya kwaziswa ngokubanzi ngenkqubela yabo.
Njengokuzinza, ukuphuhliswa kwendlela entsha nako kuyinkqubo. Ke nceda ungathandabuzi ukusithumela uluvo lwakho kunye neminqweno yakho. Kwaye mandikunike enye ingcebiso: Akukho mpapashi omkhulu emva koKhetho. Ukhetho luxhaswa kukuzinikela kwabantu kunye nenkxaso mali yam yabucala. Ke ukuba uyathanda le magazini kwaye usabelana ngethemba lethu, masibekele umqondiso-kwaye nceda usixhase ngokurhuma okanye intengiso.
Enkosi kwaye wonwabe kwindlela eya kwiminyaka entsha.
