U-odole i-avocado thowusti nekofu. Ndiyasithanda isonka, utshilo.
Imodeli yefashoni eneminyaka engama-71 kunye nogqirha wezinto zokutya uphethe iirekhodi ezininzi kwiminyaka yakhe engama-50: wayengoyena mntu ubalaseleyo eMzantsi Afrika ngeminyaka yoo-1970, kunye nenye yeemodeli ezindala elizweni ngexesha apho eli shishini lalilawulwa lulutsha kunye nasekuqaleni kwamashumi amabini anethoba. Ngo-2015, uMaye watyikitywa yi-IMG enkulu yaseMelika eneminyaka engama-67 kwaye waba sisithethi esidala se-CoverGirl kwiminyaka emibini kamva eneminyaka engama-69. Ngaphandle kwehlabathi lefashoni, uyaziwa nangonina ka-Elon Musk, umsunguli weTesla ne-SpaceX.
UMaye uyaziqhenya xa abantu beqaphela igama lakhe lokugqibela-kwaye uhlala ethatha ithuba lokusasaza amagama amnandi malunga nabanye abantwana bakhe ababini: uKimbal Musk, umgcini wezinto zokutya, kunye noTosca Musk, umenzi wefilimu kunye nosomashishini osasazo. Kodwa wenza umzamo wokuzimisela hayi ukomeleza umbono wakhe njengomama wodumo osondla ngonyana wakhe odumileyo.
Xa sisiya kwiminyhadala yomsebenzi, abantu bayothuka ngakumbi yena , utshilo umphathi kaMaye. Amandla akhe, ubuhle bakhe, ubuhle bakhe-kunye nefashoni yakhe, ehlala isisixhobo sokumisa.
Kwezi veki zimbalwa zidlulileyo, uMaye neqela lakhe bebebhabha beya kwizixeko ezikhulu kwihlabathi liphela ukuyokukhuthaza incwadi yakhe entsha, Umfazi wenza iSicwangciso , Isikhokelo sokuzinceda ngokuxhaswa ngamabali abo kunye nezifundo ezifundwe kubomi obunobunzima obudlulayo kumashumi asixhenxe eminyaka.
Kwinyanga ephelileyo, ebeseShanghai, China, apho uTesla kutshanje evule iGigafactory yakhe yokuqala phesheya kwaye uElon ligama lekhaya. Ucinga ukuba abantu baya kuba kuyo yonke i-Tesla kunye ne-Elon ngokuvulwa komzi mveliso omkhulu. Kodwa hayi, abakhange babuze malunga naye, utshilo uMaye.
Ayisiyo yokuba abantu abakwisangqa sakhe sobuchwephesha balandela uphuhliso lwezithuthi zombane kunye nesayensi yerokethi ngokuthe ngqo. Abantu kwifashoni babengenakukhathalela, umphathi wakhe waqhula.

Ngenxa yokuma kwakhe okuthe tye nokungabi sisitya semisipha egudileyo ebusweni bakhe, uMaye uphakamisa bonke ubukhazikhazi kunye ne-glitz umntu anokuyicinga kwi-supermodel kunye nempilo entle. Incwadi yakhe, nangona kunjalo, igcwele ngamabali angathandekiyo malunga nokulwa neentshaba kunye nokuqala ngaphezulu kwelitye.
Xa ndixelela uElon, uKimbal noTosca ukuba ndiza kubhala incwadi, bonke bathi, 'Ukuba ubhala incwadi, kuya kufuneka uthethe ngomzabalazo wakho,' utshilo uMaye, kuba bonke bahamba nam.
UMaye wazalelwa eCanada ngo-1948 kwaye wafuduka nosapho lwakhe baya ePitoli, eMzantsi Afrika esemncinci kakhulu. Kunye nabazali bakhe abanomdla, wakhula ejikeleza iNtlango yaseKalahari qho ebusika ekhangela isiXeko esilahlekileyo saseKalahari kwaye ehamba kwihlabathi liphela ngenqwelomoya.
Zange ndoyike kuhambo lwam oluya entlango, kuba utata nomama babephethe, wabhala uMaye encwadini. Naxa ndandixelelwa ukuba ingcuka ingandiluma ebusweni, ndivele ndavala ibhegi yam yokulala ukuze ingcuka ingakwazi… Sifunde ukuhlala ngaphandle kobutofotofo basekhaya. Xa yile nto kufuneka uyenze, yile uyenzayo.
Ngo-1970, uMaye watshata no-Errol Musk, unjiniyela waseMzantsi Afrika, eneminyaka engama-22 ubudala waza wazala u-Elon, uKimbal noTosca kwiminyaka emithathu elandelayo. Umtshato wakhe wafikelela esiphelweni kungekudala, kwaye esi sibini saqhawula umtshato ngo-1979. UMaye wafuduka nabantwana basuka ePitoli baya eThekwini bebaleka umyeni wam, utshilo.
Kwiminyaka engama-31, uMaye wazifumanisa engunina ongatshatanga edolophini enabantwana abathathu abancinci. Wakwazi ukubakhulisa kunye nomsebenzi wasekhaya wokutya kunye nomsebenzi wokumodela okwethutyana. Imali yayixinene. Kodwa ubomi babumnandi nosapho ngeenxa zonke.
Sasizokuthenga iimpahla ezingamasekeni. Besingenakukwazi ukuphuma siyokutya. Ndibaphakele isandwitshi ibhotolo yamandongomane. Abantwana bam bayayithanda! Babengazi ukuba bahluthwe, ukhumbula.
Izinto zithathe unxunguphalo ekuqalekeni kweminyaka yoo-1980s xa uElon noKimbal bafuduka bayohlala notata wabo — ngenxa yelinye lamatyala amabi phakathi kukaMaye nowayesakuba ngumyeni wakhe.
Wayenezinto ezahlukeneyo zokundimangalela malunga nonyaka. Kwisithuba seveki enye emva kwetyala lonke, ndingafumana isamani elandelayo. Ayikaze ime, utshilo uMaye. Xa uElon wayemalunga neminyaka eli-10 ubudala, wathi uza kuhlala notata wakhe. Uyise wayenayo I-Encyclopaedia Britannica , endingenakukufikelela. Wayenekhompyutha, eyayinqabe kakhulu ngelo xesha. Kungenxa yoko le nto uElon wayethanda.

Xa uElon wayemncinci, ndaqaphela ukuba wayefunda yonke into… [uElon] wakhumbula yonke into awayeyifunda. Wayesoloko efunxa ulwazi. Sambiza uElon intyilalwazi, kuba wayeyifundile IEncyclopedia Britannica kwaye IColliers Encyclopedia, kwaye wakhumbula yonke into. Kungenxa yoko le nto simbiza ngokuba nguGenius Boy. Singambuza nantoni na. Khumbula, oku kwakuphambi kwe-intanethi. Ndicinga ukuba ngoku siza kumbiza ngokuba yi-intanethi.
- Abasetyhini benza iSicwangciso
Imfazwe esemthethweni ka-Maye yasemva koqhawulo-mtshato yatsala iminyaka embalwa de uElon kunye nabantakwabo abancinci baqala ubomi babo babadala. Ngo-1989, uMaye nabo bonke abantwana bakhe abathathu bafudukela eCanada.
UMaye ngoku uhlala eLos Angeles kwaye uhamba rhoqo kwimodeli zegigs kunye nomsebenzi wakhe wokubonisana. Uqhuba umfuziselo weTesla S kwaye ujonge i-rocket ye-SpaceX ngalo lonke ixesha anakho-kwaye esoyika ngalo lonke ixesha.
Xa ebuzwa ukuba ucinga ntoni ngesicwangciso sikaElon sokuthatha umhlala-phantsi eMars ngenye imini, wacinga imizuzwana embalwa wathi, angenza nantoni na ayifunayo.
Igazi elinomdla liyangena nzulu kusapho lakwaMusk. Bobabini abazali bakaMaye-kunye nowayesakuba ngumyeni wakhe-babezenzela oosomashishini. Ngokunjalo bonke abantakwabo abane kunye nabantwana abathathu. Umkhuluwa kaMaye, uScott Haldeman, yingcali yemithambo-luvo kunye nomseki we-World Spine Care, ishishini elingenzi nzuzo; umninawa wakhe, uLee, uyintloko yesikolo seshishini eMzantsi Afrika; kunye noodadewabo ababini, uLynne noKaye, njengomama wabo, baqhuba izikolo zokudanisa.
Imotto yosapho lwethu 'yayihlala ngendlela eyingozi-ngononophelo,' ubhale watsho uMaye. Utata wayefuna ukonwaba, kodwa wayesazi ukuba ukulungele okungalindelekanga. Ngenxa yoko, ndihlala ndinomdla kwaye ndikulungele ukuphonononga. Kwaye ndiyazi ukuba ndingathatha umngcipheko okoko ndizilungiselele.
Nasiphi na isicwangciso somhlala-phantsi wakhe? Hayi! UMaye uphendule phantse ngokungakhathali. Umama akazange athathe umhlala phantsi kude kube ngama-96. Uhleli kwisitulo esinamavili ngoku kodwa usafunda ngokugqibeleleyo yonke imihla.
