Think about it ...

How can I develop my values?

* Read, listen, investigate. 

* Find experts. 

* Check facts. 

* And draw conclusions where you can on what you think is valuable about life. 

* If you can’t do that, or don’t feel comfortable doing that, find the kindest person you know and copy them. 

* When in doubt, be kind.

 Article in Vista 6 August 2026 p 8

Think about it: The value of the dash ...

Lives lived, love shared, triumph, defeat, celebrations, laments – all reduced to the dash between the dates. Is that all our lives come to?

The dash between the birth and death dates on a tombstone symbolizes an entire lifetime. 

It represents all the time spent on earth, emphasizing that how you live, love, and treat others matters far more than material possessions.

The poem's core message is to make the most of your "dash" by being kind, showing appreciation, and living authentically.

We are very proud of you!

Well done, Relebohile Makhetha!

We are VERY proud of you!!

* Die BMW vra die Volkswagen-kewer: "Hoekom sit jou oë buite jou kop en nie soos myne binne nie?"

Die Kewer antwoord: "Kom ons kyk hoe jy sal lyk as hulle 'n enjin in jou agterent opdruk."

* Vier tannies ry op die hoofweg teen 22 km/h toe die verkeerskonstabel hulle aftrek: "Tannie, hoekom ry julle so stadig?"
"Man, die padteken sê dan R22," antwoord sy.
Die spietkop verduidelik geduldig dat dit die padnommer is.
Die ander drie tannies is tjoepstil, windverwaaid en spierwit in die gesig.
Die spietkop vra: "En wat gaan met hulle aan?"
"Moenie worry nie," sê die segsman agter die stuurwiel, "Hulle sal nou regkom ... Ons kom nou net van die R365 af!"

* I renewed my car insurance over the phone today, and as I was about to hang up the woman on the other end asked if I had a pet.
I said, “Yes, I’ve got a dog.”
She asked, “Would you like to insure him too?”
I said, “No thanks, he can’t drive!”

When the term gets tough, a strong mindset can make all the difference.
