Proudly South African




It is so easy to think and complain about all the things that are wrong in South Africa... We feel discouraged because there is so much that needs to be improved. We feel like why should we even try and improve because someone will just come along and destroy it.

I was and am so encouraged by the new campaign which was launched on Wednesday, a campaign which focuses on individuals changing their mindsets and making changes in their own lives which will eventually begin to affect the whole country...

Things are never going to be perfect, they arent in any country.

I truly believe the way change is brought about is by us as proud South Africans, changing our daily mindset from the negative and rather focusing on what is right and what negative aspects we can change. It is not up to the government or political parties. We all have the responsibility to bring about change. It isn't going to happen tomorrow or next week but I believe if South Africans keep up with the positive attitudes and ubuntu which took hold of us during the World Cup then things will start to change for the better.

If you agree with me visit this website which provides more information on the campaign:

Maybe I am just to optimistic but I think that with a more positive attitude each day will be better for me and my family and I felt encouraged to share this with others!
