    mine would be tough to live up to --- its upto other people to say, I've lived up to my name.

    I suppose, in my case it would be: motho ke motho, ka batho.

    i dont know if names are supposed to be lived up to...

    -I wonder why people cant name themselves when they are old enough too

    *remembers the movie 'Big Daddy'*

    why to parents give such powerfull names? jst imagine if theyd asked you, before they named you... just a thought

  5. lebogang nkoane

    Your response would be: gaga, dada, mama (cry).

    I think there is power in not choosing your name, but being given a name, a destiny so to speak, being set before you begin to make sense of the world --- and thus, making sense of the world inline with what you are destined to be.

    I will make it up to you. It is a promise. I was there two weeks ago. Please get my address from Nkoane (or should I?). So I can know how to get hold of you when I come that side (I think in two weeks time)
