Juby Kgomotso Peacock – NOMPENDULO
https://nomps0809.wordpress.com/2016/05/18/juby-kgomotso-peacock/comment-page-1
May 18, 2016. May 18, 2016. My name is Juby Kgomotso Peacock. My middle name ‘Kgomotso’ means ‘comfort.’ A lot of meaning is often lost in translation from Setswana to English. In its original context. Means the one who comforts us. It was a declaration that this new life would bring hope, light, and healing to our grieving family; and it did just that. My maternal family only calls me Kgomotso to date and hardly by my first name, Juby. I clearly recall that upon completing high school, several older peo...

Olorato Odigetse – NOMPENDULO
https://nomps0809.wordpress.com/2016/05/31/olorato-odigetse
May 31, 2016. May 31, 2016. Something that I really respect about mothers of old is how intentional they were when it came to naming a child. These days, it appears many have lost that. It has become normal for a person to go online to see what to name their baby. These names are often flashy, yet hardly carry any meaning. In my culture there’s an adage that. Leina le ya mareelong. Meaning that a person’s name ultimately shapes their future. My name is a proclamation;. So help me God to love like you do.

May 22, 2016. May 18, 2016. Namibia, where Hereros are originally from, received its independence from the Boers on the 21. Of March 1990, and I was born a little over two weeks later, on the 6. I was named by my grandmother following our independence, as a mark to having gained our long awaited independence. Rakutuka is a Herero name meaning Kgololesego in Setswana, or ‘Freedom’ in English. The biggest significance that my name has over my life is what Jesus did for me. I’ve been liberated. May 18, 2016.

December 7, 2016. December 7, 2016. The cute cottage I stayed in. Those who know me well, know that I am an indoors person. I genuinely am not equipped to connect with nature as does the good majority. I feel slightly out of place when it comes to discussing the beauty of the constellations and attempting to go into serenading detail about the sunset over the horizon. 8221; I exclaimed, in absolute awe. “I know, right? I made my way to the balcony, and took in a panoramic – might I add magical? It took m...

June 17, 2016. June 17, 2016. Where do I even begin? The first sentence out of your mouth that caught my when I was sitting in Youth Group at the age of 16 years old was, “God wants to be a part of every area of your life.”. That alone profoundly explains the simplicity behind how you have captured my heart. Thank you for being a father to a young girl that was hungry for direction and guidance. Thank you for standing by me even in my absence; I just genuinely know that you have my back. How could I poss...

Finding Closure: Rest In Peace, Uncle – NOMPENDULO

Finding Closure: Rest In Peace, Uncle. Finding Closure: Rest In Peace, Uncle. July 11, 2016. July 11, 2016. Of course, never once did I imagine that the culmination of The Father Series would be reached through the passing of my uncle, Dad’s younger brother. I found myself wondering how one mourns the passing of someone of such close relation, and yet acknowledging never having truly known them? Bone of my bone, flesh of my flesh. Now I know better! To do what I always saw in the movies. Nevertheless...

June 20, 2016. June 20, 2016. My Moruti and Father who oozes with so much swag…. Ps Jerry, thank you for your presence. Your presence and life have spoken so much into my life – much more than your words (and you know that’s BIIIG because your words always change my life! I have always submitted to people that whenever I walk away from a conversation with you, I find so much life having been infused into my spirit that I feel I can overcome anything.
