HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014

Hello Everybody,

Happy new year!

Yes it is the beginning of a new year and sometimes that is good. A new year can be the start of new goals, targets and plans.

This is a letter from a friend, and it is beautiful, I think this is the best way to say I wish you a perfect new year.

Proverbs taken from Christian Courier:

A good and faithful friend evidences constancy

These “friends of opportunity” are similar to “fair-weather” friends. They are of no value for real needs and support. Choose your friends wisely, for “A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother” (Prov. 18:24). The cultivation of friendships indiscriminately can be disastrous.

A true friend possesses candor. He will be open, honest, and sincere. Reproof that is given in love is noble; insincere affection is hypocritical. Solomon said, “Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy” (Prov. 27:6).

To surround ourselves with “yes men” is spiritually detrimental. “A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet” (Prov. 29:5). We ought to be thankful when our friends offer criticism; we ought to take it as constructively as we can. “Whoever rebukes a man will afterward find more favor than he who flatters with his tongue” (Prov. 28:23). Candor is a quality of a true friend.

A genuine friend offers wise counsel, even a healthy clash of views.


A trustworthy friend has consideration. He should demonstrate compassion for the feelings of friends. He ought to have a deep sensitivity so he can say the right thing at the right time. If “counsel” is what he says, “consideration” is how and when he says it.

May I wish you a very happy and fruitful 2014


All the best,

A Weapon of Mass Destruction is Missing!!!!

Hello everybody,

Trusting all is well.


The third artilce is published and this is the link for easy access.

Weapon of Mass Destruction Missing



This article is about a Dillon Gatling Mini-gun that has a six barreled machine gun capable of firing up to 3000 rounds a minute. This is a weapon of mass destruction and its missing! Now can you imagine if this mini-gun ended up in the hands of some fanatic group or terrorist organization? What a tragedy that would be.

In the published article is a snapshot of the letter sent to the President of South Africa, Mr. Jacob Zuma, requesting him to intervene in this matter. This letter was delivered on December 20, and no response has been received.

Such a sorry state of affairs! I ask myself if there is an end to this corruption and I can honestly say NO, not during my lifetime. I can imagine how vast the corruption is world-wide and I only have a small glimpse of the size of corruption in South Africa. It is scary, really scary. The world-wide corruption must be terrifying.
Yes that's it, read the article and you will discover how corruption in South Africa is dangerously rearing its ugly head into all the government departments.

Have a wonderful weekend, I'm off to the Johannesburg Zoo with family for the day.

All the best,

Alarming Abuse of Weapons in South Africa and MORE!!!!!!!!

Hello Everybody,

I am back, my new articles are published and I want to share the links with you.



Article number 1

South Africa a Failing Democracy and a Case of Corruption

This is now a threat, and all threats need to be eliminated. To keep up the charade of being honest, it is difficult for dishonest people to look forward, they must look back, left and right, just in case someone recognizes a little evil lurking somewhere. Despite all these issues being raised with the SAPS (Police), despite cooperation from the SAPS, the issues are held to be above their mandate.

What a nightmare corruption is!


Article number 2

Alarming Abuse of Dangerous Weapons in South Africa

During October 2012, NGAM (a private company) discovered that weapons held at a place of safety under the supervision of the South African Police (SAP) were tampered with. This immediately initiated an investigation by the concerned company. It created a flurry of activity when the weapons were moved from their place of safety to an unknown location. The move was a deliberate use of deception with the SANDF issuing a false affidavit to the South African Police.



There is one more article that is not published yet. I am sure it will be sometime during the day. This is a really scary story, its about a weapon of mass destruction that is MISSING!!!!!! I will share the link once it is published in the Guardian Liberty Voice.

Thank you for taking time out to read my posts, I do appreciate this.

I have enjoyed the writing and sharing with all my friends and family. I am thrilled with all the new friends I have, and feel so blessed.


Take care now.
All the best.

South Africa A Failing Democracy continued

Hello Everybody,

Trusting all is well.

Yes, it's still summer here in South Africa, and we had a lot of rain over the past few days. On Christmas day, it rained the whole day, and we had to limit our fun too indoors and could not enjoy the lovely gardens, swimming pools and blue skies. It was still a lovely day, and we are grateful that we had the opportunity of spending this blessed day with family and fantastic friends. I hope you all had a splendid day to.

<b>South Africa A Failing Democracy – Focus on the Special Forces and NPA

This article focuses on the Special Forces of South Africa and the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA). These departments are extremely powerful and under the direct control of Jeff Radebe, the Minister of Justice. The Special Forces is rigged with fraud and theft. The NPA is in complete shambles, and I wonder if there is any chance of this unit running properly.

South Africa a Failing Democracy Focus on Joe Modise and the Assassination of Chris Hani
This article is a brief focus on Joe Modise; he is an apartheid activist and was arrested alongside Nelson Mandela. He served as Minister of Defense under the Mandela presidency. He was a staunch guerrilla fighter and often came under the heat of Chris Hani during the struggle days.

The history and assassination of Chris Hani has always fascinated me, and I wanted to find a link to the failing democracy. I truly believe there was a link. Chris Hani was a popular leader and loved by millions of people who were part of the struggle for freedom. He was a man who had a vision, perhaps one of harmony and peace. We will never know. Had he lived I think he would have been elected the first black president of South Africa. I have reason to believe that his death was planned from within the high ranking officials of the African National Congress (ANC). Of course his killer Clive Derby Lewis was a staunch right winger and if he had not been arrested, I think he would have dragged South Africa into a civil war.

I am in the process of submitting another three articles for publication and these are a little more intense than the last few articles. I will post the links once they are available on the Guardian Liberty Voice.

Take care now and happy reading.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everybody,

I sincerely wish you all the best over this festive season and pray for the peace of God to fill your lives. May you and your families have a blessed time and be filled with joy, happiness and love.

This story is from Godfruits.com and a big thank you to them for allowing us to share these precious words.

The Night Before Christmas
(With apologies to Clement C. Moore)

It was the night before Christmas and all thru the land
people were traveling home as planned.

The Inns were full of travelers, you know
And a young couple was searching for someplace to go.

She was heavy with child and found permission to rest
in a small stable, not considered the best.

It had a manger and hay, not much more,
Just a few animals and a dirt floor.

In the same country abiding in the field
Shepherds were tending their sheep as they will.

The stars up above were shining up high,
One in particular was lighting the sky.

All of a sudden there appeared in the sky
An angel of God with a message from high.

The angel announced don’t be afraid
I bring you good tidings for all people today.

A Savior is born to you this day
Which is Christ the Lord, he had to say.

In the city of David wrapped in old clothes
lying in manger is the sign you should know.

And all of a sudden there was singing in the air
a multitude of angels singing with care.

Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will toward men.

And when they were gone, the shepherds agreed
that they would travel to Bethlehem immediately.

When they arrived they found the sign. Mary, Joseph and the Babe.
He was lying in the manger, just as the angel proclaimed.

They told the parents that they were told
of this Holy child that she now holds.

Mary was thinking of the things that they said
then they returned and bowed their heads

They praised and prayed and glorified Him
and for all the things the angel had said

Eight days later, it’s time, someone claimed
The small infant JESUS was named.

Remember the star that lighted the sky
that special night, the angels came by .

From even that time, from really afar,
there had been three kings following that star.

It had taken much time to read the starry law,
but they rejoiced with great joy when they saw what they saw.

A mother named Mary with a child that they saw
they fell to the floor and worshipped in awe.

They brought Him gifts of Myrrh, frankincense and gold
very pricey items we are told.

Over two thousand years have passed since then
When Jesus was a child born not of sin.

He came and He lived and died for you and me.
God Almighty clearly loves all humanity.

He says He will be back, very soon at least,
To gather His bride for a wedding feast.

Christmas will continue forever indeed
So give your gifts in His precious memory.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night
may your life be filled with His joy and His light.

-- Rock Griffis
the wonderful memories! Share God's love and keep smiling!
