So many times we
spend our lives with so many things surrounding us that we see no need to be grateful
for, for we believe we deserve all the riches that come our way but we are
still not happy enough with all that we have.
We live in a new
South Africa where the colour of the skin does not matter as much as it did to those
who fought so hard for everyone to be treated equally inspite of the colour of
their skin, a moment of silence they do deserve.
People have lost
their lives fighting for a better South Africa that we as the youth no longer
see the past having a great significance of our present and shaping our future.
For all the heroes and heroines who have sacrificed their lives and some whom
were crucified for the cause they were fighting for…I give a moment of silence
in respect of all the good you fought for.
It would take me
years trying to mention each and every cause that citizens of this country have
gone through in the name of fighting for a good cause, but to the unsung heroes
and heroines of this land; I will forever give you the moment of silence from
the bottom of my heart which that you deserve.
Shouldn’t it have
been for you, who knows…maybe I wouldn’t have never been able to write this
piece today(Moment of Silence).
This is an admirable written piece. I agree that too often the youth do take for granted the blood (irrespective of skin colour) that was shed for their freedom. Well written, just be mindful of tenses. Otherwise, very well written.
