The Race
By: Puleng Mokgosi
Sometimes
we think we know who we are and where we are going. We grow up knowing what
society says about us and we let what they say determine the intensity of our
vision. We get so used to human approval such that we even expect it to
validate our worth. We end up going or doing what we think that it’s right
according to society and end up not following our hearts. We suppress our
dreams to suite our circumstances, turn a blind eye to our visions, a deaf ear
to our calling. We press on and continue toiling in order for us to fulfill the
society painted vision. One that involves no passion, no peace, no joy, no rest
but debts, cheating to go up, strife, bitterness, pride etc...
