In my community very important things to find are helping, caring and being kind to one another. Respect is very important to us and also helping each other. When gathered, people in my community like to help each other. They share their problems and advice each other on how to solve the problems they are facing. The two guys who helped their friend did not ask for anything in return. After helping, they sat with him and chatted before going home – it’s really wonderful.
Such beautiful hearts these people have.
The guy in the front, was diagnosed with TB.
Here is two guys helping their friend with his washing, since he is unable to do it himself.
My name is Tekla Karupangwe. I was born in Smitchdrift but grew up in Platfontein, Kimberly. I am the first of 5 girls. Matriculated in 2013, studied and dropped out and looking to study again. Growing up as a small child, everything was good. People treated each other with respect and kindness. Thou poverty rates were high but all was well. As a child I was always alone, at home watching TV. Most things I learned from television. Then several years back life took its turn on us, where people were abusing alcohol, drugs and a high rate of teenage pregnancies. More school dropouts than matriculants. Young adults and small children partying and drinking. There’s no respect and kindness towards each other. Life is unimaginable, violence is everywhere. As an individual one has to strive, standout and be a better person. Wanting a brighter future for yourself. To be independent.
