I believe in people..

You know there is this thing that keeps happening to me over and over again yet I continue to be as I am without complaint. There are a lot of people that I have helped in my life. Many people. I always go out of my way to make sure I can try to figure something out, because I really do care. I think Iv leant people over 1k, with them promising to pay it back but in the end not. Or maybe how to solve something, or to borrow something that I have so that you can try finish anything that you could be busy with. And still I dont complain. A disappointment offcoz but hey whatever.

Yet when the day comes when im in great need not even a single person can help me. Not even one. They all either give excuses or avoid me. Lol its like its a law, that it has to be so. Yet I still believe. I meant what can I say, and who am I anyway..

One thing I realised about myself is that I really do believe in people. You know people can do amazing things. Any one person can. We are way smarter than we realise and we should set high goals. And this very thing I know very well, that its the very least person that actually knows way better than you may think. So that means we should not underestimate people in any way. You cannot know all things, but can at least know fragments of them. One person may know that which you do not understand, and may help you with something when you are stuck.

One day I was in Shoshanguve walking back to my aunts place when I met this beggar. He was a tall old man. He looked bad, torn dirty clothes. He had a piece of dry bread in his pocket. He muttered to me, asking for some money. I stopped. He asked again but couldn't hear him well. He passed and I also went along. But as I went this thing came to me. I remembered a verse from Matthews that said "Do for others what you want them to do for you." I wondered what if that person was me. Wouldn't it be good if a certain boy helped me. Then it hit me. I stopped dead in my tracks, went back to him, took all the money I had and just gave him without saying anything more. Thats just a great example how people need each other sometimes.

I know some people may say well why bother, its none of your business and you should not get involved because you do not know the whole story anyways. Well what would I say to them? Because it feels good! Isnt that what humanity is about?

I remember reading this piece where two women were watching this guy juggles bowls many times a minute that it was simply amazing. This woman said to this other one "Isn't it amazing how well this guy can juggle these things?". The other woman said "Whats amazing is not how well he can juggle them, but that he could do it at all".

We can all do things that seems impossible momentarily. I remember this pastor saying "All things are possible to those who believe. All things. All. Things. Every need every prayer. All things. All you have to do is just believe".

Believe!
