About this ebook
Forgiveness is not only something that you do for another person; it is a gift you give to your self. Carrying the past anger, hurt and pain as well as the other bad experiences, we create a reality that continues living and repeating itself over and over again in our lives and thus bring up those feelings all over again.
This is the story of the author's journey of life and her acceptance that nothing is wasted with God by your side. Allow God to gather all those wasted years of your life and also allow Him to restore them back to you.
It is not possible to be present and available wholeheartedly in a new relationship until you heal the hurt, the pain, the resentment and all the bad experiences of the past.This applies to all kinds of relationships being love, family, work or even the love for your own self.
There is no future in the past. It is so true and important to understand the very meaning and nature of forgiveness. Make peace with your past.Start from scratch if possible. Learn to work through the pain. Learn to smile through your tears. Never allow people to touch and soil your soul.

Thank you Lord –
Lord, I come to you without problems.
Without asking for anything.
Just simply to say thank you.
For the sheer joy of sleep when I am tired
For the remedies of sickness when I am ill.
For the clarity when I am confused.
For the joy of helping others even when I am still in need.
For reality of the world when I am in fantasy
For bringing calm when I panic.
For giving me hope in a moment of despair.
Thank you, Lord, for all these things, but most of all,
Thank you for your abiding presence that makes every day I live, A DAY OF THANKS. I thank you Lord.

DEDICATION
I dedicate this book to my father, Fana Frederick Mthembu, who was born on 26 January 1930 and called to rest on 6 October 2006.
Dad, you have always been my source of inspiration.
I attribute my successes to you; you supported me to heed my calling.
You’ve given me so much and have asked for so little in return.
You guided me but yet let me go on my own. You set a fine example as you taught me your lessons in life.
You taught me courage – to be brave enough to do what I believe is right.
I often find myself thinking of you Dad; of the support and encouragements
You’ve given me over the years, of your generosity, kindness and guidance
Especially in the many talks we’ve had together. You were always there and a friend to me.
I salute you, Dad, and I honour your greatness.
I miss you and I will always love you…
MTHEMBU – MVELASE – QHUDENI! YOU ARE MY HERO!
"AMAZING GRACE
How sweet the sound;
That saved a wretch like me,
I once was lost, but now am found.
Was blind, but now I see"

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
For the development of this book, I feel a deep sense of gratitude to:-
- God the Almighty for making me realize that the time is now.
- The happy memories of my late father and my mother who is still holding the family tight.
- Dr Bongani Khumalo – Chairman and Chief Executive of Gidani (Pty) Ltd, my mentor, who has always been my source of inspiration. He taught me special skills which I as a person battled with and those skills are humbleness, anger management, and forgiveness and also to accept and understand God’s people no matter what. His words Qhudeni, you are one of the finest people I have had an honor to know
, keeps me going and makes me want to always do the best as long as I live.
- Stef du Plessis – Founder of Professional Speakers Association of Southern Africa who, when we met for the first time, his words were I have to move you away from the door because I can see the potential in you
and it didn’t take me long before moving away from the door to where I am today.
- Beth-Ann Galvin Keschner – Managing Director of Business Communication Skills who after I delivered my first speech ever, took me under her wings and flew with me and said You are an original and please don’t allow people to change you.
- My children, Sbu and Lelo. There is so
