Tragic news

We received very tragic news from our family in South Africa on Friday 27th of April.

My dad’s brother was murdered, found next to the road about 70 km’s from his home. He was 65. His funeral will be on Friday 4th of May. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, 3 kids, grandchildren and the rest of the family. He will be greatly missed.

Yet another life. Another statistic. Where will it end? We have now lost three family members between Charmaine and myself. All three have been murdered.

The questions remain.
How do you change the mentality of a nation?
How do you teach them that life should be cherished?
How do you solve a problem when not even the government wants to acknowledge that there is a problem?
