Maybe I Wouldn't

Written by Segololo from the blog Oh Moments on 30 Jun 2008
Favourite this post

Maybe I wouldn’t

Maybe I wouldn’t be so critical, if I had not voted the current government into power
Maybe I wouldn’t be “free”, if I hadn’t voted for the current government into power
Maybe I wouldn’t be cynical, if I had made the decision not to vote this government into power
Maybe I wouldn’t be, but I am

Maybe I wouldn’t be afraid to visit another African country, if my countrymen had not embarrassed me and chased away African foreigners
Maybe I wouldn’t be afraid of my children visiting other African countries, if my countrymen had not embarrassed me and burnt a man for being from a foreign country
Maybe I wouldn’t be afraid of showing my foreignness, if my countrymen had not made being from a foreign African country a stigma
Maybe I wouldn’t be, but I am

Maybe I wouldn’t be so concerned about the state of my neighboring countries, if they had not played a part in my countrymen having freedom
Maybe I wouldn’t be so concerned about the turmoil in my neighboring countries, if I didn’t have my countrymen flee South Africa to find shelter there when freedom was a word on a banner
Maybe I wouldn’t be so concerned about the hardships of the people in my neighboring countries, if they had not extended green olive branches when my countrymen only had a dream called “freedom”
Maybe I wouldn’t be, but I am

Maybe I wouldn’t be so ashamed of my government, if they would hear and address the cries of the Khutsong people
Maybe I wouldn’t be so ashamed of my government, if they would hear and address the cries of my countrymen who want their Identity documents
Maybe I wouldn’t be so ashamed of my government, if they would hear and address the cries of families living in poverty
Maybe I wouldn’t be, but I am

Maybe I shouldn’t be so full of negativity – There can only be great things for this country
Maybe I shouldn’t be so full of negativity - This is a country full of possibilities
Maybe I shouldn’t be so full of negativity – There’s so much to hope for this country
But I know that Hope is not a plan…
Freedom is all good but only when everyone has their basic needs met and are protected

tjo...

maybe I wouldnt be planning to escape South Africa, if the future of politics in this country werent so bleak.

Maybe I wont have to take a bus to work next week if i can just afford a litter of petrol.

Maybe I wouldnt be so hungry... if a loaf of bread was still R2.15c.

Thought-provoking.

Maybe i wouldn't be so hungry if i'd had breakfast this morning.
Maybe i wouldn't be so overwhelmed if i'd taken a break from bloggin and FB like i promised myself i would.
Maybe i wouldn't feel so bad about heartache cause it's inevitable that things do come to an end.

Eish, Belz if u're around, pls holla. Need to ask you something serious. *sorry Sego*

maybe i wouldn't be so ticked off if i didn't think all this time that a certain colleague had a unique style and class only to see her today rocking the same hairdo i am.

maybe i wouldn't be so ticked off if i didn't think she was being petty and childish

maybe i wouldn't be so ticked off if i believed my friends/colleagues when they tell me she's jealous or that i should be proud as someone thinks i've got style and tehy want to be just like me

maybe i wouldn't be so ticked off if i didn't think she was too damned old to be doing this ish!

maybe i wouldn't be so ticked off if she wasn't walking around the office like a busy bee for everyone to see her "new look"

maybe i wouldnt' be so ticked off if she at least showed some kind of shame/remorse in what she has done

maybe i wouldn't be so PISSED OFF if i didn't think i'm entitled to this do

maybe i'll just go over there and cause a scene, slap that hairpiece right off her silly looking face

maybe, just maybe, i wouldn't be so PISSED OFF if i thot everyone else was as mature as i am not to even THINK of doing something to trivial as that

she's tripping, bit** is tripping....i'm 'bout to take my rings off get me some vaseline....in Jill Scott's voice

maybe, just maybe, i wouldn't be so ticked off, had she gotten the msg in this email i sent her: Do Not Undermine YOur Worth by comparing YOurself With Others. It Is because you are different that each of us is special.

maybe i wouldn't be so ticked off if i just realised and accepted she doesn't have a unique style and/or class after all. i mean, what woman in her right mind would stoop that low? ja no....she really is lacking in that department shem.

THANKS SEGO. I FEEL SOOOO MUCH BETTER NOW!!!!

Compliment her new hairstyle and say something like, i've always wanted to do that to my hair, who's your stylist?

Maybe i wouldn't be wearing this itchy "wig" if i hadn't cut my hair last night.
Maybe i wouldn't be struggling to fit into my favorite jeans if i went to gym like i promised myself.
Maybe i wouldn't be in such debt if i stopped shopping for unnecesary things,ooohhhh

Kele_ what's wrong sisi....Forgive the lady man.

maybe I wouldnt be planning to escape South Africa, if the future of politics in this country werent so bleak
Thought I was the only one who was looking at escaping....eish guys they always say the grass is not always greener on the other side...But from my point of view, at least there is grass in Ausie/London/NYC unlike here - umntu is economically getting poor everyday.
Do you know that if you were earning R100 bucks at the beginning of the year, that is not the same value money anymore....So basically everyone is underpaid

Maybe i wouldnt be so confused if understood what Kele's ish is about? hairstyle?You are being petty wena yoself.

Maybe i wouldnt have felt so stupid afta stoping a total stranger in eastgate mall on saturday and asking if she was Kele coz of ukufananya and the fact that she was buy bedlinen like a person who's just got a new place.

Maybe i would have gone bananas if TVSA wasn't around.

Maybe i would be at peace if i did save money because i would have gone to see my mom before she passed on.

Maybe i would be happier if i knew god was happy with me right now.

Maybe I wudnt be this hurt if I hadnt let my boyfriend go to the Eastern Cape by himself knowing that he has an ex there.
Maybe I wouldnt be this insecure if I believed him when he says he loves only me
Maybe I wudnt be this angry if I had phoned that "b***h and told her to stay miles away from my man
Maybe she could have told me that its her man too, damn that hurt
Maybe I should accept that all men are rats, period!!!!!!!!

@cleve - MAYBE I WOULDN'T BE SO UNHAPPY IF I NEVER MET MY HUBBY.

Maybe i'll be on top of the moon right now if I had nt met him,maybe i would not have told my mom in inlaw where to get off just because she's nagging me about getting pregnant.maybe I'll be able to spoil myself on month end and appreciate myself more other than be told to go to the gymn becoz my body is a turn off.maybe i would nt be reminded of conjugal rights everyday.........O! God,help me to live a healthier life.

@cnglemother Maybe u should not bitch kangaka she's an an ex after all
maybe i should clarify this 2 u chomza, he says she's an ex and she says she is the current, see where my frustration is.
maybe i should start trusting my man, after all he has always been honest
Maybe i shud trust that skinny frog he calls an ex, and kick his black arse back to EC.
maybe i shud except that every1 has history, and some history dont stay in the past
maybe i shud take a bus to the EC and moer the living hell outa that bimbo
maybe i shud except that he was hers first, and understand that he cant erase her form his past, and she wont give him up without a fight
Or maybe I should just shut the f&%k, i am talking a lot of bollacks.

30 Jun 2008 07:19

Maybe you need to relax, Andzzz..

Whether he cheats or he doesnt, whether he is honest or he isnt, it doesnt change you, in any way. You are a great woman and he'd be doing himself an injustice if he doesnt hold on to you & treat you right.

(yhhoo the thing scares me, it is so small, but yet very very very powerful, to think that all of us (even the mistakes one), are the product of this, makes me respect it, even noba isencwadini)

Ao! Tshd21? What is happening here? I always listen to the song I'm gold by Beverly knight when an idiot would break my heart... You are gold, maan!

I might be gold Sego but I'm still hurting...LOL couldn't resist, askies

Segololo
04 Jul 2008 02:49

Tshd21: You ARE gold, not "might". You are precious and a wonderful person. When that idiot that hurt you needs to know that he is a fool...

Sing along with me now...

Some people never recognise it
Though it's right before their eyes
And shines in all its glory
They never ever see
They choose something that looks just like it
And it may glitter all the time
But gold it will never be
I guess you never held on to quality
Or you woulda recognised by now
Something so special so true
When it's standing right in front of you

I'm gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don't know
Pure gold babe
You're looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn't let go

Gold lies in rivers undiscovered
Hidden from the sight of those
Who don't know what to look for
(They ain't never gonna find it)
Sometimes the value is uncovered
Other times it's cast aside
By those who are just unsure

I guess you never held on to quality
Or you would of recognised by now
Something so special so true
When she's standing right in front of you

I'm gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don't know
Pure gold babe
You're looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn't let go

All the things you failed to see
Separated you from me
I decide who wins my time
And who comes inside yeah
Cause what is true and what is real
Finds a way of being revealed
I don't have to even try
Cause I'm certified pure

I'm gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don't know
Pure gold babe
You're looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn't let go

OH Moment of the decade
I will not remove these pics -That (Linda sibiya oh moment) was; and still is, an oh moment for a decade for me... Who you allow to take pics of you is always crucial as you never know where the pic will end up. What you wear to the beach must always be attractive to you. As a celeb what you do is of public interest so put you golf balls tucked away.

Oh Moments blog deals with anything and anywhere moments where I need to re-evaluate my life, standards, dreams, choices, emotions and anything that I feel like it! It is my Carte blanche!
