The Good Sundae Story

All White GOOD SUNDAE Durban 30 Dec '12

At the end of last year I attended a friend's event in Durban called Good Sundae. A few years ago my friend was trying really hard to make it in Johannesburg. He later  made the decision  to move back to his home town in Durban and start a movement there. Since then he has proved himself and built  a brand off his name. This year he hosted the Good Sundae party in Johannesburg and I hear it was a huge success. Well done Ben!

Different Roses For Different Folks

As cheesy as this may sound but when I started this blog I was adamant about one thing; for it to serve a purpose. At the time I did not know what that purpose would be. My cousin came to visit me this past weekend and after observing my life and the unique bond I share with my friends, she gave me a brilliant idea!

I want to dedicate my blog to young professionals. I'm talking about beautiful and intelligent women who manage to hold a perfect balance between academia and the cosmopolitan lifestyles without having to be an obsessive "hustler." Ladies who chose the path of less fame but more phren. Those that did not conform to the pressures of missing out. Women who work hard and play hard. Success is very subjective to each one, not all of us can be in a reality show or play the lead in a soap (Well done to those that do!). I salute my girls at Deloitte, KPMG, Transnet etc. I do not think you should ever feel the pressure to live up to the hype of Johannesburg's social trend. Fame comes and goes and like everything else with a hype, it does eventually simmer.

Just for thought: Imagine a sunflower trying emulate an oriental Lily, a rose or a tulip. How easily and quickly would it lose its own unique beauty...?

The Good Feeling

I always talk about "The Good Feeling". It comes from various aspects of life. We are often clouded by the inevitable state of pollution in our minds, seeking affirmation from trivial things we regard paramount. I'm talking about the simple feeling of completing a task in record time, getting into a hot bath on a very cold day, rethinking a funny joke in your head, and

laughing to your self! Life is not bad when we find joy in everything we do. Strive to experience "The Good Feeling" at least once a day!

Dust that rose and let it blossom :)
