My Chocolate Pancake

My dearest Chocolate Pancake,

I’m assuming you are at present on route to Rhodes and about to embark on the next chapter in your life. The need to constantly stay in motion is and will always be our greatest vice and virtue. No place is home and your search will continue long after this but, for now you have to stay put.

Embrace your anxious feelings but, don’t let them get the best of you. The adjustment will be tough but, in order for there to be change there needs to be friction. The end result will be of more value than you had anticipated.

Learn to conform to order, timetables will run your day to day life. Lectures, exams, assignments and deadlines will be the thread that keeps it all together. Don’t bunk, or at least try. After all you are here to gain an education, so stay committed. Work hard and with enthusiasm. Knowledge however can not just be gained through readings and theory. You know all to well that personal experience and life itself is the supreme teacher. So make a conscious effort take it all in.

Friendships and connections have always been of highest value to you. But, life recently dealt you a bad hand in love and you’ve lost faith. Don’t despair; you will soon discover that no hand is perfect. So take the time to really get to know those who cross your path. They will help fill the dull Eastern Cape days with light and laughter.

Laugh. Dance...dance all night long and do the little things that bring you pleasure and growth.

Rainbow coloured skies and Café del Mar dreams.
