Indawo eMadrid, eSpain. (Getty / UGonzalo Arroyo Moreno) Utata uhlala ebuza ukuba yintoni endiyibalekayo nohambo lwam. Kwiiveki ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo, umntu ophawulayo undixelele ukuba ndiyeke ukubaleka kwaye ndiphile ubomi. Kwaye ndakhe ndadibana nebhlogi yohambo ebizwa ngokuba nguMama ithi ndiyabaleka.
Andiqinisekanga ukuba kutheni, kodwa kukho olu luvo lokuba nabani na ohamba ixesha elide kwaye akanamdla wokuhlala phantsi okanye wokufumana umsebenzi oqhelekileyo kufuneka abaleke into ethile, ngamanye amazwi, uzama nje ukubaleka ubomi .
Uluvo oluqhelekileyo kukuba ukuhamba yinto emele ukwenziwa ngumntu wonke-leyo minyaka isithuba emva kwekholeji kunye neeholide ezimfutshane zamkelekile. Kodwa kwabo bethu abakhokelela kubomi bokuhambahamba, okanye abo bahlala ixesha elide kwindawo ethile ngaphambi kokuba bafikelele kumakhaya okugqibela, sityholwa ngokubaleka.
Ewe, kukuhamba — kodwa hayi ixesha elide.
Thina bahambahamba kufuneka sibe nobomi obubi, obuhlungu, okanye obothusayo, okanye kwenzeke into ebuhlungu kuthi esizama ukubaleka. Abantu bacinga ukuba sibaleka iingxaki zethu, sibaleke kwihlabathi lokwenyani.
Kwaye kubo bonke abo bantu bathi, Ndithi kuwe: unyanisile. Ilungile ngokupheleleyo. Mna ndim ebaleka. Ndiyabaleka eyakho umbono welizwe lokwenyani. Ndiyaphepha eyakho ubomi. Kwaye, endaweni yoko, ndibaleka ndisiya kuyo yonke into- ukuya kwihlabathi, iindawo ezingaqhelekanga, abantu abatsha, iinkcubeko ezahlukeneyo, kunye nengcinga yam yenkululeko.
Ngelixa kunokubakho ukungafani (njengoko kukho nayo yonke into), uninzi lwabantu oluba ngabaphambukeli, oonothwal 'impahlana, kunye nabazulazuli benza njalo kuba befuna ukubona ilizwe, bengasindi kwiingxaki. Sibalekela ubomi base-ofisini, ukuhamba, nangeempelaveki, kwaye sibalekela kuyo yonke into enikelwa lihlabathi. Sifuna amava onke enkcubeko, ukubona zonke iintaba, ukutya ukutya okungaqhelekanga, ukuya kwiminyhadala ephambeneyo, ukudibana nabantu abatsha, kunye nokuzonwabisa ngeeholide ezahlukeneyo kwihlabathi liphela.
Ubomi bufutshane, kwaye siyabuphila kube kanye. Ndifuna ukujonga emva kwaye ndenze izinto eziphambeneyo, ndingatsho ukuba ndichithe ubomi bam ndifunda iiblogi ezinje ngelixesha ndinqwenela ukuba ndenza into enye.
Njengomntu waseMelika, umbono wam unokwahluka kwabanye. Kwilizwe lam, uya esikolweni, ufumana umsebenzi, uyatshata, uthenge indlu, kwaye unabantwana bakho abangama-2.5. Iibhokisi zoMbutho ongena kuzo kwaye unqanda iintshukumo zakho ukuba zilindele. Kufana nematriki. Kwaye nakuphi na ukuphambuka kuthathwa njengokungaqhelekanga kunye nokungaqhelekanga. Abantu banokufuna ukuhamba, bakuxelele ukuba banomona ngento oyenzayo, bathi banqwenela ukuba benze into efanayo. Kodwa ngokwenene, abenzi. Bayamangaliswa yindlela yokuphila ngaphandle kwesiqhelo. Akukho nto igwenxa ngokuba nosapho okanye ukuba nendlu - uninzi lwabahlobo bam baphila ubomi obonwabisayo ngokwenza njalo. Nangona kunjalo, isimo sengqondo ngokubanzi eMelika sinjalo yenze ngale ndlela ukuba ufuna ukuba yinto eqhelekileyo. Kwaye, ewe, andifuni ukuba yinto eqhelekileyo.
Ndivakalelwa ngathi isizathu sokuba abantu basixelele ukuba sibaleka kungenxa yokuba abanakuyazi inyani yokuba siqhekeze ukungunda kwaye sihlala ngaphandle kwesiqhelo. Ukuya ndifuna Ukophula zonke iindibano zoluntu, kufanele ukuba kubekho into engalunganga kuthi.
Ubomi yile nto uyenzayo. Ubomi bobakho ukuba ubenze. Sonke sibotshwe phantsi yimithwalo esizibeka yona, nokuba ngaba ziibhili, imisebenzi ethile, okanye, njengam, ixesha elibekiweyo lokubhloga. Ukuba ufuna into ngenene, kuya kufuneka uyilandele.
Abantu abahamba kwihlabathi ababaleki ebomini. Ngokuchasene noko. Abo baphula isikhunta, baphonononge umhlaba, kwaye baphile ngokwabo babaleka bephila ngokunyanisekileyo, ngokoluvo lwam. Sinesidanga senkululeko abantu abaninzi abanokuze bafumane. Siba ngabaphathi beenqanawa zethu. Kodwa yinkululeko esakhetha ukuba nayo. Sijonge macala onke saza sathi, Ndifuna into eyahlukileyo . Yayiyinkululeko kunye nesimo sengqondo Ndabona kubahambi kwiminyaka eyadlulayo oko kwandikhuthaza ukuba ndenze le ndiyenzayo ngoku. Ndababona bephula ukungunda kwaye ndacinga kum, Kutheni ingam nam?
Andibaleki. Ndileqa ukuya kwilizwe kunye nombono wam wobomi. Kwaye andizange ndicwangcise ukujonga emva.
