JOYS OF BEING A MASINA

Rebecca Masina

YES!!! I am a Maisna and am proud about about that. Its not for the fact that my name is popular or anything but I appreciate being a Masina and that's it.looking great by the way Miss Masina. As a Masina it is our duty to love and appreciate ourselves and others. We learn respect, love, and leadership as we grow up. Elders do really play a big role in our lives. We dress as ladies if one is a lady and a man also dress like a man. No confusion there. Every elder person around us, family or not, is a parent and also those who are young are our family too and we need to respect all of them.lol The Masina's are given in their veins. We born with it.

"A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others" that is our way to go. Family comes first no matter what. Masina comes in different ways and mine is Venda.

Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy, and believe in your self. As a Masina we are given a chance to grow and reach for our dreams and if we fail then we have to fight till we get it. We are taught never to give up. We value life,and people and we do take part in making the environment a better place to be.

Always continue the climb. It is possible for you to do whatever you choose, if you first get to know who you are and are willing to work with a power that is greater than ourselves to do it.  BEING A MASINA...

ME AND SOCIAL MEDIA

source:thedrum.com

Do I really need to let the whole world know about who I am, what I do, who I am with and what I am doing and with who? really??no ways am I gonna do that. you can know my whole curriculum vitae but not a plus me. I am not hiding anything from anyone but the less you know about me the better. Why should I put my life on the line?. social media is all about socialising and that's it. there can be a lot that you can talk about in the social media but not me. if its me then let be me enough. sometimes things don't work out due to the social media that one uses. you turn to put your life on the line and when it back fires you don't know what to do or say. people do not want to see other people happy or being settled.
you go and spill your whole life on twitter and face book, and the next moment things are hot. you cannot handle the pressure anymore. most of the relationships never worked out because of the social media. they say if you not afraid of anything then why not mention me or us on twitter/face book and all that. huh really now? why do i need the social media to prove my self to one?haibo where was social media the time I was getting my success or my life or even my relationship?so why do I need it now?
how about we use social media to discuss issues that affect us? issues that relates to us and a way forward about life?even more awesome how about we use it for discovering talent and other good stuff/what are you going to do with the whole information about me?.gossip??haaayi stop that. my life is my life. You can do what you want with your life and share with everyone the moments that you ahve or been having, it is still your choice. This days social media is being used for wrong reasons, people are being raped and kidnapped due to this social media. if I don't wanna put it on social media so be it. Respect that.

LADIES DRESS LIKE LADIES

You want to be respected but you wear like you going to sell your body at Moderfontein. where is your dignity?really? is that how you want to be viewed?as a hooker look alike?. Haibo...the next thing you will be complaining about rape, crying rape. OK we do know that the way you dress is not an invitation for men to come and do as they please but you also have to know that they are people too and they do have desires and emotions that they cant control. Their minds run  in speed that they also dot know where it came from. Am not speaking for men but I am just a concerned lady.  What ever happened to our morals, respect, value, dignity, reputation? this is the new South Africa, but it does not mean we should let go f out self respect and most importantly our culture. A women should dress up like a women not a little kid. One can be beautiful without going to an extend of wearing like a hooker. We love to embrace our looks, our body but there is a right way of doing things. Can a lady dress up like a lady please!!! what will harm you if you don't wear like a lady? These 21st century has ruined everything. next thing you Will hear her saying "I wear as want". Yeah yeah you wear what makes you comfortable, but be look able. The way you dress do make people to respect you. What happened to our cultures though? our elders left and now we doing as we please.No need to impress anyone, if they like you then they will like you even though you look like a lady. Dress like a lady to be treated like one.

LITTLE THINGS THAT MAKES ONE SMILE

source: http://www.smile.com

little things in life are the ones that makes one smile and turns one happy. Only if we as the public or people should learn to appreciate what we have, even if its not enough. Sometimes its not up to us to decide but for God to decide. Its not by choice that today we are as poor or as rich as we are. God has plans for all of us.though there is no excuse of being poor or anyhow. At the end we are all the same and we all have choices.

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

A woman whose smile is open and whose expression is glad has a kind of beauty no matter what she wears. Happiness is a decision that one chooses to be. love. live and respect keeps me happy. Don't expect love from others while you know yourself that you don't give back too.Peace begins with a smile.

If you have only one smile in you give it to the people you love. Oh well some might have people whom makes them smile like me....lol..yes He does make me smile and that's what I appreciate more. no need for material or any sort of thing but a smile is enough. seeing other people happy also brings me joy, my smile, and I know everything is going to be alright.

I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. It is the business of little minds to shrink, but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death. There is nothing that a prayer cant fix.

Appreciate the little that you have and am telling you you will be happy at all times. Keep in mind that what you have, there are many people out there who dont have it/them. SMILE

MY LOVE FOR PUBLIC RELATIONS

Re A Gola Multipurpose centre

Re A Gola

I always wanted to help people who need help in my life, that is the dream that I always had and still have today. Choosing Public Relations was the best choice i have ever made in my life. It gives me a chance to prove my self that with a dream and with passion nothing is impossible. I do have a believe that nothing is gonna stop me from achieving my dream. What led to me to study PR is because of the love I have for people. I believe a giving hand is a receiving hand. God blessed us differently and we need to use the gift that he gave us and the presents that he gave us. for me I think it was not by choice but Gods choice. he gave me the heart to help others. If it was up to me no kid or an elder would be leaving in poverty. bringing life, love, joy and the smile to people is what I would love to do. The more the heart is happier, the longer one gets to leave. We need to take care of the unfortunate. I think that what God made us for. How do you feel when you always have something to eat and you always throw good food in the bin whiles others are hungry out there? Are you even reading the Bible?. Well no one is forced to help other people but if one has love withing their hearts then they would know what I am talking about. No one deserves to sleep with an empty stomach no one I say. PR well is not all about helping the needy but me love that side of it where I can give back to the community. A child cant be raised by an individual but a community does raise a child. not everyone will appreciate the good you do but giving up is not an option. Currently am doing my PR campaign where we help the NGO to get sponsors and donations and I must say its not easy but with love I know I will make it. Nothing will always be the way we want them to be but a prayer can do a lot. Last year it was a group work and I must say my team did a good job and this year everyone is on their own. The organisation that am working with is Re A Gola Multipurpose Center, It deals with everybody with any problem or situation. The organisation has been there for over 10 years but it is still not well known even people around the community some cant tell if there is one or not. Lots of kids come there for food and most of the kids are the bread winners at home which its not a good thing at all. The centre is too small to accommodate everyone but it does all it can. Not enough utensils are there, food,technology,The building it self its way too small, clothes and many more. I believe if the community work together nothing can be hard to achieve.This people are also people like us. why do we look down on them? They need motivation to get going but we keep giving the cold shoulders. Just imagine if it was you?life!!!!think twice help make the world look better and be a better place to be.
