After facing the prospect of death hooked up to oxygen with vitals that just wouldn't stabilise, I'm grateful for life. I salute the brave staff at Milpark Hospital and the lady in the opposite bed who prayed for me when I wept with anxiety. Thank you.

Please be safe.
We give our children everything we did not have. The only trouble is that we deprive them of the lessons taught by not having. Delayed gratification. An appreciation for things. The value of money. The reward of getting something after having worked hard for it.

In the seconds preceding your walk- off a look crossed your face that reminded me of my late brother when the pain of condescension became unbearable. Thank you for creating this moment for us to take an honest look at ourselves.

There's a lot going on in our land and in life and loss but today I'm focusing on the miracle of celebrating another year! It's my birthday! I'm gonna party like it's my birthday!
Horses can actually see nearly full circle around themselves. They wear blinkers during racing to stop them being distracted or panicking. As you run your race, put blinkers on, stay focused, forget the vain, noisy displays of others and giddy up towards your prize!

There are few people who make an impression on me. But today Thoriso Themane's father did. He taught me the meaning of grace under fire, elegance of spirit and intestinal fortitude in the geography of brokenness. This young man's death must not be in vain. 💔

My darlings. My beloved ones, how does one even begin to say goodbye? When a goodbye means a sweet parting from you who have kept me company, you who have grown me, you who have taken me into your lives, you with whom I have shared so much?

I will miss you. 💓💓💓

readers for the phenomenal love and support you have shown me this year. I wish you so much love and happiness. ❤️
It's the day I arrived here in human form. I'm grateful for life and for all of you who make it exciting and thoughtful and worthwhile. I hope I get to use the balance of my time creating more meaning and consciousness. Love to you

I'm only surfacing now and I didn't even have your manic workload in front of bright, unforgiving lights, keeping LIVE pace with a story with more things breaking than a Greek restaurant. I respect you my friend. You're human. Don't let this hurt you. All love.
When I'm ninety and still super sexy, I want to be proud of the story I tell about my life and dreams. I want to be proud of myself. I'm working towards that goal right now.
Beware, not everyone is invested in your progress, not everyone wants to see you emerge in your millions from your townships, informal settlements, suburbs, rural areas united and focused. Because that is a scary thought to the lone eaters of prosperity.

Fam this is my mantra for myself today, perhaps it may be for you too...Say after me ‘Today I make a fresh commitment to the person I want to become. It may not be easy, I may find it extremely difficult to break my paralysing patterns, but I will make a start’.

Don’t always fall for the lie that others have a happier life than you. Social media only shows you what people want you to see, having posed a hundred times for a perfect, airbrushed photo. The truth is far more complicated. And you are not alone in your chaos.

I love crying for the right reasons. Hector and Nonhlanhla, the beauty of their love (God, their faces!), the MASSIVE outpouring of love of people from across society reminds me how strongly love lives here, in our beautiful land.

To every sister who is surviving abuse and trauma, but who manages to show up for herself and her children I freaking SALUTE you! Keep on walking, keep your head up, even when people don't believe you. You have what it takes to walk through the fire and to not get destroyed. ❤️
Hello beloved...There are apparently 261 million Twitter accounts. How mind blowing would it be if every single one wished the world LOVE today, followed by one tiny act of kindness? The power of that collective intention would be indescribable!

I can't speak of my beloved Dr Thandi Ndlovu in the past tense. Her life made such an impact on mine. She showed me love, kindness and solidarity when I needed it the most. Heartbroken. Devastated. 💔

Please listen to children when they raise the alarm about sexual abuse. They may not have the words to say, because shame may make them shrink. But please pay attention and listen to their cues. Believe them. And then do something. Even if it means disrupting family.

To all who are weary and low, who are bearing heavy burdens...I'm lighting this candle and projecting so much love in your direction. I hope it finds you. I hope you feel it.

This little girl didn't know quite how much magic there would be in her future. Wild woman, mother, friend, writer, journalist, dreamer, thinker...still hiding poetry under her bed. I'm glad I stuck around. 💜

I wake up so thankful to everyone who showed me such incredible love and support last night. I've never been so happy to see empty bookshelvesI! I'll respond to as many tweets as I can but this is to say 'I see you and I'm astonished by your love'...

Life is so transient. Here now, just now, then gone! Reeling over the passing of Zindzi Mandela. She was so gracious in writing a quote for my new book. We always joked that I was her sister. Condolences to the entire family. RIPower
#ZindziMandela
For many this eve marks the reloading of another stale cycle. Many will wake up the same as they did today and the hundreds of days before. My wish is that together we intensify our efforts to make our world more hopeful, more prosperous for millions more of us.

At my mum’s bedside in hospital, and she looks at my daughter’s hoodie asking ‘who’s that?’. Daughter says ‘Tupac’. Mom says ‘oh Q-pac’. We roar. Must be the meds. Keep her in your prayers. Surgery this morning.

Started walking the Westcliff Stairs, looking at my life and torrid journey with weight gain. I want to thank my body for carrying me through all the beautiful adventures I've had. I am promising to do right by her in shedding the excess and looking after her. Wish me luck. ❤️
I invite you to take a moment of silence for yourself today. Maybe you will realise something important and beautiful about yourself. Don’t wait for the day when others will have it to honour your absence, take it and honour your presence.

Beloved a taxi almost wiped me out this morning. Yes I'm grateful to be alive, but I'm deeply saddened by the levels of selfishness that put what we want over what is right, and risk the lives of others. Not just on the road, but everywhere.
@Powerfm987
Beloved, good morning! I pray you have the opportunity to move closer to the life you have designed for yourself today. Strength, courage and wisdom...
@Powerfm987
You may work hard at validating yourself. So why, even for a moment, tolerate those who undermine that growth? I invite you to stop. Leave those who smile at you but wish you destruction. Leave those who can never see YOU beyond THEIR own failures.

My cousin died. Buried the same day. 41. Cancer. Death triggers a priority audit. Are you on life support or breathing on your own? Are you spectator or player in your life? You think your life's horizon stretches out infinitly? It does not. Do what makes you happy.
@Powerfm987
My beloved, wow, I have been simply overwhelmed by a tsunami of good wishes and blessings after coming through Covid in Dec! Thank you so, so much to everyone who made the time to do so! I appreciate and love you. 💗
Good night. It's already the morning after the night before. South Africa is a beautiful, complicated, chaotic, heart tugging, history hurting, future healing, supremely amazing country. God, I could never live anywhere else.

Please accept my deepest, deepest love and condolences. May your heart find strength in the albums of memories you have since the day she was born...this was her journey...🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
The pain you inflicted on her lives on in us - praising her now when she's gone shows what hypocrites you are! Zenani Mandela spitting fire! Women in the crowd shout 'Bua! Bua! Bua!'
