A realisation of a truth that cuts deep A realisation of a truth that cuts deep, leaving me with waves of please forgive me
and I am sorry.
A realisation of a truth that puts me out of my comfort illusion of its okay , leaving me with waves of I hope you see I know the truth .
my truths is really not my own but your truth too
I have wished , hoped to twist and change the notion. but my feet have not carried me far enough for me not to see the truth in the blurred vision behind me.
my truth is your truth
my journey is not my own but your teacher
my pain is not for me but for your strength
my fear is not mine to conquer but yours to bridge through
my joy is not my own but a rainbow of hope for you
A realisation that my life is not my own but is yours
my life
a teacher
a comforter
an inspiration
the truth that cuts deep is that we all have this truth our life is not our own but belongs to everyone to be touched , changed ,loved and saved by you.
hence live , breathe, smile and be free, be you and you will leave a story that will impact a generation needing to find truth in your story in them.

Starlight Dancing
Speaking of events, today on my featured list I want to highlight an event hosted by the Ballet School of Zimbabwe. Happening at the Ballet Centre, 109, East Road, Avondale every night at 6.30pm from Wednesday 24 to Sunday 30 September, 2018. This show features different dance schools on open air stage in the grounds of the center with tap modern, ballet, contemporary, hip hop and lyrical styles on display.
“Starlight Dancing”, which is the Dance Trust of Zimbabwe’s annual outdoor production was established over 35 years ago in a bid to provide senior dancers from all dancing studios an opportunity to perform (13+). It started as “Ballet in the Park” and was staged on the concrete stage in the Harare Gardens, later moved to the Ballet Centre and “Starlight Dancing” was born.
Approximately 100 dancers have been rehearsing different types of dance in order to provide an entertaining and varied programme.
Preparations are in full swing with the Masimba Group having erected the stage free of charge. The Dance Trust of Zimbabwe is very grateful to them – they have provided the stage every year since “Starlight Dancing” began. This weekend rehearsals on stage will take place and the finishing touches done. Over the years this production has been enjoyed by both the dancers and the public so we hope that the 2018 production will receive the same amount of support.

Featured: KayGee40
So coming up first on my featured list, is an artist who’s striving to come first in every aspect of his career. Originally from the streets of Mutare, KayGee40 is not only inspiring to take over the music industry with his Afro-Soul sound but is the first Zim artist to drop a unisex fragrance range named after his trending single, Sterek.
It seems only fitting that his new single dropping this Friday the 21st of September is called Tora Mari, The song featuring Dj Shugeta and Nyasha Timbe is all about the grind and making money in this industry whilst also having fun of course because when the beat hits you can’t help but want to dance.
The man himself says, “This is a hustler’s song and most importantly a dance song. Tora Mari (get money) rise up and stop complaining and make things happen. If you don't noone will make this happen for you. Its time we make things happen.”
With a unique African beat and hiphop twist the song highlights the hardwork the artist embodies in his daily life. Aiming to make sure this innovation in business does not only stop with him he also teaches music in schools since finishing the study of Ethnomusicology.
“It’s good to finally say that our music has reached another level in terms of quality and the producers are all Zimbabweans for that matter even music videos are now on the same level with those world over. My only worry is the income. Musicians must be able to live off music royalties, shows and endorsements just to name a few. We need people to invest more in our arts. I wish the government sees how music can push Zimbabwe in terms of Tourism. Look at Jamaica, they tried it and it worked.”
Ready to hear more, you can find him at KayGee40music.co.zwand if you didnt know the number 40 represents completeness!
