My thoughts - O'clock to my success

by Mamohale Moloi Dimema (Notes) on Thursday, 17 September 2009 at 09:50

(1748) O'clock to your success - Do I ever wonder what my purpose in your life is? No!! I perhaps am in this world to receive and never give. Why do I expect you to nurture my soul - Your rainbows are shared and I forget to think of you as mortal, yet you bear a navel and are of flesh like I. I expect from you inspiration that you so willingly dish. Do I ever have time to deliver in turn for you are human like I, You are riddled with trials and tribulations but maintain a brave face to keep me sane. O'clock to my success we are recipients of good and as we walk that ladder, do we reflect on where we are or does it just end at that moment when we are 'woken up'. To you - the one who has faced adversity and embraced it with victory, the one who has been our strength and yet needs us to be their pillar, the one who always has a welcoming smile yet a sobbing heart, the one whose voice has warmth yet longs to receive that in turn, the one who gushes out kindness and love, the one who has shaped our paths, the one who has supportively challenged our decisions, one who has tirelessly extended the arm of friendship, the one with ill health yet healthy enough to heal. You Are My Inspiration, no matter how many blows you receive always walk tall. Never forget to live your life with hope in your eyes, kindness in your heart, fire in your soul for you know you serve your purpose, and will not have a strand of regret. It is your time to say O'clock to my success, here I am. Much love and respect. (20-11-09)

O'clock to my success how does one reconcile the anger and hurt, with what one truly deserves that being serenity and joy. How does one reach for those stars - that light within one's midst - that rainbow. One is truly destined for great things - for one is a warrior, a victor, but society would find a way to bring you down. Lest one not despair for one will go down as a martyr. Why is it that when one works hard to make a lifestyle, one's future and hopes and dreams are crushed? Why is it that when one is humble and gentle, one is ridiculed and left in shame? Why is one always be-littled and left to live a life of fear, yet one has made a decision to not let anything stand in one's golden path. Why is it when one decides to stand in affirmation and proclaim 'O'clock to my success here I am', then one's destinies are brutally shattered. Why is there no justice in this world, why am I jealous of another, why do I not wake up myself and follow in great footsteps-why? (08-09-09)

O'clock to our success springtime is upon us!!! The sun brings light and warmth and when it is scorching becomes deadly and unbearable, the rain waters our land to feed us and yet when water overflows we drown, we are riddled with the windy, dusty and freezing weather conditions as well. We have experienced in our lives the heat of the summer, the challenges of the autumn and the coldness of the winter. Never to despair though as spring is upon us, it is O'clock to our success time and this is within reach. O'clock to my success you boomed into our lives and brought us the beauties, the joys, the hopes of a bright future. You came into our lives and yes we had to go through the other three seasons, all for a reason never to look back but face the future head on. What lies ahead for us is that - we need to smell the freshness and appreciate the colours you bring, for our lives of gloom and storms are but fading away as we say O'clock to our success here we are! (21-08-09)

O'clock to my success even though we have been made to let lie our minds, for they knew of how strong and powerful those are. That we have been programmed wrongly to our minds breaking, and not properly moulded and channeled to them making us. We have strong minds and yet not abilities to use that strength, we have let society dictate the capabilities of our precious minds. This leading us in choosing to use our minds when clouding it with negativity, and never giving the light of day to positive thinking. Never to despair as it is our time to start our thinking tanks, and change to exactly what they have been created for. May we revive our hidden potential and grow our minds, may we declare that no more shall we be preached on our (in)abilities, may we take our shields and block off the negative thinking, may we seal off the negative energies, may we challenge those bridges in front, and with pride proclaim to those who care as we say O'clock to my success here we are. (16-08-09)

O'clock to my success!!! As we salute the women in our lives today, as we honour their impact in our lives this month. This is but an affirmation that women are a vehicle to our success, O'clock to my success who could The Almighty give such a job of taking care of His nation but a woman. To those great women in our lives we thank them, for being our pillars of strength for building and guiding us. To those who have lost hope we remind them that, they are special and 'we need you women'. With all the great leaders in society, we have strong women who have shaped them. Yet society forgets about these beings, as you find them battered beyond recognition by their mates, they are ridiculed and despised by siblings, they are cursed by their offsprings. Women are our heritage, they reconcile broken spirits, they fight for our rights and goodwill, they are the centre of our families and nation. It is because of women that we are able to say O'clock to my success here I am. (09-08-09)

Knock Knock with the weekend plans we have made and will make, is there an introspection on how fruitfull/less the week we leave behind. Is it possible that we plan how to have fun and unwind from the busy work schedule, and we continue complaining about our pay check whilst we could plan how to overcome such. How many times have we heard of a knock and how many times have we heard the ticking of the seconds, and did not answer with the words O'clock to my success here I am. They have been chosen to speak and they have delivered, they have been given the strength of warriors - martyrs they have not disappointed. When they stand before us we cringe as they speak to our souls, why is that so - we should be standing next to them and attest to their words. The knock is here and it says "I am your conscience", I have given you a sword and I took a rest and gave you the armor to do what is right. I ask you to tell me O'clock to my success here I am, can you? (07-08-09)

With a key one is guaranteed that one's treasures are protected, meant to hold together such keys is a special caretaker. The key to your success is indeed in your hands, a key that opens all doors lies within you, see that bright light for it is your future, touch that rainbow and see the unison of its structure. As one opens that house, that car, that safe keeping box within which what you hold dearly lies, what better way to have a minder of your keys reminding you, that your key to success is truly in your hands - than with the colours of the earth to keep you grounded and reminded that (blue) you need to water the (green) to provide sustenance for your livelihood (red) to ensure beautiful sun setting in your horizons. A keyholder from the O'clock to my success family, instills in us the values that indeed we hold our success in our hands. As we unlock with our keys to our better tomorrows, A keyholder in our hands says O'clock to my success here I am. (03-08-09)

The little things we never pay attention to, end up being the ones that bring more value to our lives. O'clock to my success it is with no coincidence that the home of this group is at a place named Katlehong, and loosely translated as or meaning a 'place of success'. It took people way back to agree on a name for a particular township, and they were fulfilling a Masterplan that no mortal knew of. Where else could a group who are of the same mind and focused on success be based, except the one place chosen and named to define and shape this very group. Such group which has grown to a huge family which shares their knowledge, started as curious strangers who wanted to go onto the information superhighway. This is destiny O'clock to my success where can one find success and what is success? Surely there is no need to look further than the first image you would see in any mirror, for that is a reflection of what success is made of. O'clock to my success here I am. (30-07-09)

As a being going through the journey and passage, many aides are rewarded throughout and get taken away for a reason. I may be gone from your mortal eye but perhaps if you look harder you will find another, who will be my assistant to aid you through from where I have left off. You need to see that you cannot replace me as none other would be like me, know that I am watching over you and am smiling as I see you shine. I am forever your shining star, that wind beneath your wings, sometimes I make my presence felt and from today know I'm here. I have moved on to a place of only those chosen ones, I do not know what lies ahead but I know that what I left behind in you is Isikhokho. Cry when you miss me as I would be sad if you don't, smile when you think of how proud I am of you. Make your mark my sunshine as you have been given a crown, you are a victor, success is what you are made of, few are cut from your cloth O'clock to your success I am lost and yet not so lost after all. (29-07-09)

The nano seconds are rushing with great anticipation to being seconds, which are looking forward to O'clocking to a minute. With such minutes holding on to merge with other minutes to form an hour, which are running that marathon to O'clock the 24hours to a successful day. Is it possible that we are as mortal beings to emulate the simple yet precious things in life, Is it possible that we can reach greater heights to eminent success just by remembering that - We have to start at the beginning with a vision and take the baby steps. Every realisable dream is possible provided we wake up from the dream, I am yet to congratulate a being who has made it alone to the top for S/he is not mortal. This is a new dawn and how many of those hardworking seconds have I wasted, not to regret but to learn and not repeat the same. O'clock to my success what is a being without faith? (28-07-09)

A smile is a precious and priceless gift that is effortless!!! Imagine yourself at a supermarket till point and a customer smiles at you, what would you give as a car guard when a car owner greets you with a smile, the cleaning ladies who keep public ablutions hygienic would certainly love a smile, I will appreciate what I would give for a smile only - when I am sad and hurting, when all seems not to be going as planned and am at my wits end, when in pain and in agony, when I need to weather storms, when I am lost and can't find my way, when all I need to see is a stranger's face filled with warmth and their eyes saying 'It's going to be ok, It's just the way God planned it, hold on'. I know at this very moment that perhaps my smile could have been a rare treasure to all those I met. O'clock to my success despite my busy lifestyle let a smile, be a given from my heart to those I meet, let I smile with my eyes, my whole face, let I be a beacon O'clock to my success here I am. (27-07-09)

O'clock to my success here I am, these words are all I need to keep me going. BUT will I ever be able to achieve and realise the meaning of this phrase, because the only stumbling block to my success is that I BELIEVE in shortcuts. As a being I want the pleasures that this world can offer, but what steps am I taking towards attaining such nicesities. I want the ultimate spiritual benefits and showers of blessings, and yet I sit and dream that these will fall on my lap. It is exam time and I know I am going to ace my exams, and yet strangely I do not put effort towards my studies. I want love and all the sweet nothings to surround me at all times, dare I even think of how often do I give this in order to receive it. I have plants and vegetable patches and expect to harvest and enjoy the beauty, and it obvious that I have no reason to complain as I do not water these. O'clock to my success!!! let I not be my worst enemy, let I wake up from complacency, let I strive for excellence.... (23-07-09)

IF ONLY!!! If only I was born with a silver spoon, maybe I would have the world at my feet - But then what if my feet were not firmly grounded? If only I was of a different breed, maybe I would be treated as and feel like a king - then I ask myself what if...? If only I had made a calculated choice in choosing a partner, maybe I would be the happiest being - what if my calculations were made from the heart? If only I had listened in class maybe I would have a job, but then I ask myself all these ifs and with my laden with doubt thoughts I think. I can still O'clock to my success even if I was born from a humble background, I can claim my success and journey towards it because along with success comes a reputation for wisdom, after all I was told that the reason why the heart is not always right is because it is on the left. What if at this very moment I turn all the overwhelming ifs, to O'clock to my success I am breaking free from these chains... (17-07-09)

Hope is a belief in a positive outcome related to events and circumstances in one's life. Hope is the feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best thus Hope is an emotional state.
Blessing is a mercy, a benefit or a special favour or gift bestowed by God, thereby bringing happiness. To confer well-being or prosperity on, To endow as with talent. - (Definitions from a dictionary). In my and all of our inboxes daily this is what we are given, for what in return? This all is given to us selflessly and tirelessly. Whenever I log on, and see a message on Inbox I beam with excitement. Knowing that I am going to be reminded and guided for the day, and in the evening it is reflections of my day. Thank you Tshepo (Hope) and Sibusiso (Blessing) for waking us up daily, May The Almighty continue to light and guide your paths. Black Child Its Possible just remember to always say O'clock to my success here I am. Much love and respect. (13-07-09)

O'clock to my success what else do I want? It was such an inspirational evening being at the audio book launch, where the black children where affirming their O'clock to their success. Congratulations to this team and to the Black Child Its Possible team, for imparting your knowledge and kind words at all times. We should definitely take heed and build this black empire, by carrying on from the footsteps of those who fought for us. There is so much potential and a wealth of knowledge, we need to let our fingers do the talking. Black Child Its Possible at this moment to move with your cheese, and say O'clock to my success here I am. I am so inspired, motivated, challenged, enthused, I wish the time was 04:00 to start a new bright dawn. (09-07-09)

O'clock to my success how do I?...How do I console a family who have lost the most free spirit ever, when I myself am not consoled yet, how do I agree with people who say 'celebrate her life!', how possible is it to celebrate a passing of a dear one, how can I sit and say yeah she was a great person, how do I even start to think of her as 'was', how do I not hear her tellephonic greetings, how do I speak in a code and realise no one understands. The Almighty is the Best of Planners, but how does HE not prepare us to handle such a loss, how do I stop crying and make her seconds to her O'clock to success real, when she was still in the planning phases, how do I pray for my beloved's soul to rest in peace when I draw a blank and am lost for words when I need to pray, how do I handle seeing her name on my e-mail address list and cellphone, do I delete it no, do I keep it yes, am I going to heal this way, how do I carry her hopes and dreams through, how am I going to re-awaken her O'clock? (07-07-09)

Where does my success lie? Is it where I say I have found myself, or is it that I make a living wage, is it because I have assets, am I really whole to proclaim success, is my spirit filled with warmth and guidance from THE CREATOR, is my success based on material gain, can I be ridiculed as poor as I am when I claim success, is my success on face value, who is allowed to profess success, O'clock to my success let every second not fade without account, let I not strive and hunt for success, let I stand unfazed when I am faced with success, let I accept and empower when success hits me, let success not destroy but build me, let I realise the moment and say O'clock to my success here I am.
