It is great to be part of the process when lives are being changed in a positive way; when those who have been knocked down by life-changing events, decide to <i>get</i><b>UP</b> and move forward with their lives. This is happening in Swaziland. People are finding their feet on the stable, unshakable Foundation. Young people are sharing Good News with their friends. Dreams of a brighter, better future are spoken without fear of being ridiculed of laughed at. CarePoints (CP) are not merely feeding schemes to sustain survival - they are turning into Life-giving nourishment points enabling lives to move from survival towards a point of dreaming of success and thriving in life!</div>

I have been fortunate to be involved with the ministry-team of Adventures in Missions (AIM) and Children’s Hope Chest (CHC) for the last three years. My involvement is but a slice of the ministry pie delivered here. My involvement started with the development of the Ngesikhatsi <span style="font-size: 9px;">(gɛ-si- kæt-si)</span><span style="font-size: 12px;"> </span>Grief Support Course and currently involves facilitating the development of the Discipleship Life-skills Curriculum ‘<i>Sisekelo Setfu</i>’, which means ‘Our Foundation’. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px; min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
Over the past 6 months Bheki Motsa (Discipleship Coordinator) and I have been at work to measure the impact of the <span style="font-family: Chalkduster; font-size: 8px;">Ngesikhatsi</span> Grief Support Course and gather feedback from facilitators who present the course at the CP’s as well as from those children who attend the course. There are some truly inspirational stories of Godly restoration of broken hearts and young people who <i>stand</i><b>UP </b>after life and sad situations knocked them down.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11px; min-height: 13px;">

Back in the nineteen-hundred-and-nineties, (an angry) Alanis Morisette made the world aware of the anguish one can suffer when painful life-events strike. While some of her songs dripped of anger and resentment, many of them were actually quite accurate in their description of the thoughts and feelings that accompany loss-events. In one of her songs though, she hits the bulls-eye on the question ‘how do we get through pain’. She talks about wanting a ‘softer, more comforting place’ when she thinks of her pain; I briefly quote form the song:</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
<i>“Every time I’m at a loss I feel I’m bolted from difficulty.</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
<i>My tendency to want to hide away [from the pain] feels easier. </i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
<i>My urgency to dream of softer places feels understandable; picturing another place more comforting to go.</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
<i>I’m confused I think there must be easier ways… [to get through pain]</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
<i>I could just walk away and hide my head in the sand.”</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px; min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
Young people in Swaziland have many and varied loss-experiences at the CarePoints where AIM/CHC staff are operating. Many of those interviewed as part of our evaluations have indicated, “It is easier not to feel anything and forget about the pain, than to face the pain.” [<i>I could just walk away and hide my head in the sand</i>] Living in this denial often creates a continual numbness of the heart, which eventually leads to the wellspring of life to <i>dry</i><b>UP</b>. Dreams evaporate; personal value plummet; the fog of hopelessness obscures the life giving light of hope. We <i>harden</i><b>UP </b>and life passes us by.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px; min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
The <span style="font-family: Chalkduster; font-size: 8px;">Ngesikhatsi</span> course is not a ‘silver bullet’. It’s not the <i>only</i> way to heal hurting hearts. It is however a puzzle-piece which brings Son-light into their lives and <i>brighten</i><b>UP</b> their belief and view of the future. As time moves on (which can be translated in siSwati as “<i>ngesikhatisi”</i>) the fogginess clouding young minds is <i>clearing</i><b>UP</b>. Son-light brings growth and life. It is in this new life, that Hope is encountered. And we are privileged to be witnesses of this in the lives of those who have attended the <span style="font-family: Chalkduster; font-size: 8px;">Ngesikhatsi</span> course. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px; min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
Through the <span style="font-family: Chalkduster; font-size: 8px;">Ngesikhatsi</span> course, we are trying to create an environment where kids don’t have to hide because of their pain, shouldn’t feel valueless, unimportant or insignificant because they have no one left in their lives to love them. Through the community created by the small group sessions, young people are rediscovering their worth to God, reviving their support for one another, and <i>lifting</i><b>UP</b> their gaze, allowing Hope to assure them of their future. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px; min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
The chorus, of Alanis Morisette’s song says:</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
<i>“The only way out [of pain] is through [the pain], the faster we’re in the better. There’s no quick-fix way.</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
<i>The only way out is through; the only way we’ll feel better, ultimately; the only way out is through.”</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px; min-height: 13px;">
<i></i><br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
To <i>face</i><b>UP</b> pain is hard. To face the emotions related to this pain is even harder. But the hardest thing to do, is to find the courageous willingness to wade through that pain in order to grow through the experience, become more resilient, and live a life that truly testifies: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” - Philippians 3:14</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
Here is one life that has been strengthened by God and found ‘new life’ after attending the course. All the children in the stories we’ll be sharing have agreed that we can tell their story. They are proud of the growth in their lives and want people to know how God has impacted their lives. We look forward to sharing more of these in the upcoming blogs. Bongiwe and Bheki write the following:</div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><b><i>Innocent</i></b><i> and his brothers started stealing and selling stolen items to make a living. Due to his tiny stature, his older brothers have been using him to sneak into houses through windows to steal. Even at the care point he would steal whatever valuable thing he comes across so he can sell. </i></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>After attending </i><span style="font-family: Chalkduster;">Ngesikhatsi</span><i> Course this is what </i><b><i>Innocent</i></b><i> said: “I didn’t understand why my father died while we were so young and my mother didn’t care for us. This has been so painful in my life so I started doing all the bad things with my brothers and friends. However, the more I did those things, the more my life felt hopeless and meaningless. I’ve been in a lot of fights and have been stabbed a few times hence I got to a point where I really hated my life. I didn’t want to live. </i></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>However, after attending </i><span style="font-family: Chalkduster;">Ngesikhatsi,</span><i> which I didn’t know at first why I was chosen, I began to feel loved.

I started to feel hope being restored in my life and it became so real that even now I know Jesus loves me and there is hope for my future in Him. His presence made a difference in my life and now my life is better and I have stopped stealing, and I’m associating with good friends.” </i></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px; min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10px;">
Children no longer have to face their painful journeys alone - with the support of friends, love of the facilitators at the CP’s and discovery of the value they have in their relationship with Jesus, kids are moving out of the grip of pain and growing through it. Moreover, they are showing signs of life; spring-like buds and blooms of fresh fragrance flowers that carry the scent of victory of death - just the way Jesus promised!</div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14.66px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A question you have been asked or asked yourself. The situations can be varied; tough days at school, stressful exam periods, busy times at work, hectic times with kids, a death in the family, a divorce. In my case it was recently while participating in the day long adventure that is the Comrades Ultra Marathon. The 87.7km journey from Durban to Pietermaritzburg. Especially during the tough second half of the day often you will ask and get asked about how it is going. How are you <em>holding</em>UP?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14.66px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">During the hard parts of the Comrades it was sometimes just about keeping on moving, walking is a valuable way to recover, I am not running, but l am moving in the right direction. It was about keeping in the mind the finish line, my goal, the dream and the immense satisfaction awaiting me. The finish line was a tiny part of the journey that was Comrades 2015. I committed to finish what I started not just on race day but in the months of preparation before the day too. I had told too many people and I was held accountable.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14.66px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It was about breaking up the very long distance in manageable parts. By aiming for the next water point and celebrating each of these milestones on the way to the finish line. Everyone needs support in achieving their goals. From my family, friends, loved ones, experts and even total strangers. Self-limiting inner stories and stories that the world had told me began to dissipate at each water point milestone. I was able to <em>boost</em>UP with the good stuff and slowly but surely leave the baggage that is not serving me well behind me. I was tired, sore and exhausted but ever closer by each milestone I passed.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14.66px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Preparing for my journey was about getting enough sleep and rest, an adjustment was required for a more balance lifestyle and appropriate order of priorities, encouragement from friends that are like brothers/sisters and just being in love but always I believe it depended on my own joy (Proverbs 15: 13a A happy heart makes the face cheerful and 17: 22a A merry heart does good, like medicine).</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14.66px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Your <em>holding</em>UP story can be an encouragement to someone else. Support them in <em>facing</em>UP to their situation. Live your story and then share it. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Remember when you were little and
you tried your hand on gardening for the very first time? Most kids start off
in this way, by enfolding a simple kidney bean from the grocery cupboard
between some cotton wool, keeping it wet religiously until a small piece of
green appears.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some beans took a bit
longer, others evolved quickly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I can also remember the
disappointment when you forgot to give the water and that little bit of green
becomes a mess.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You had to start all
over again.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Pain is like the kidney
bean.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In the grocery cupboard, on its
own, it will never sprout that little bit of green. It will stay hidden in the
dark and never become more than exactly what the packet told you it would be.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There would be no growth and no
learning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There would be no healing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The kidney bean needs the damp
cotton wool.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">As humans we have all experienced
pain at some stage in our lives, it is inevitable. And we also need the cotton
wool to fold around our pain and support the fight against the darkness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whether your ‘cotton wool’ comes in the form
of a friend or a family member or even someone you have just met, you need to
allow that caring.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Only with dedicated,
loving care would the pain evolve into something living, something green.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Embrace it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">So let us all <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">cover</i><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">UP</b> each other’s pain by being the ‘cotton wool’ it needs and let us
bring some ‘green’ into someone’s life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">My favourite, early morning pass
time on a Saturday is watching videos on the internet. Of course only when
there is not that dreaded load-shedding. I watch comedy, music videos and also
catch up on the latest gadget trends.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Last week I came across a video of a 28 year old woman who is married,
with two small kids and who have been deaf her whole life. And then she
received an implant and for the first time in her life she could hear. I then
also watched the video where she appeared on a talk show, a mere week after
this miracle and she was telling the host how she could hear birds singing
outside, her children laughing and also her husband snoring.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">This video made me reflect for
the next week to come. One of the first things that caught my attention during
the talk show video was the perfect way in which this woman was talking. There
was no indication that she could not hear the voices of others a week ago. She
had no speech impediment at all and when asked about this her reply was that
she received a lot of coaching while deaf.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I then had flashbacks to my own high school
years, and remembered my one friend, who was born deaf, but came to a ‘normal’
school without any special needs classes available to assist her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She recorded every class and in the evenings
her mom would transcribe all the day’s lessons for her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is a huge commitment to someone else and
even more impressive that this friend of mine is a qualified pathologist today,

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It feels like only yesterday that
we packed away our holiday decorations, bought the new squeaky clean diaries
and got rid of all the food with 2014 expiry dates.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are indeed already 1 quarter done with
2015 and for some those new years’ resolutions are but a distant memory written
down many pages ago.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We all know the old cliché “where
did the time go” and we might even experience it with regular intervals.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Maybe you promised that friend you bumped
into at the school reunion last year that you will organise a braai soon, only
it is not 4 months later, and you can’t remember where you’ve written down the
number.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Or that unpacked box of clothes
in the corner that is way too small for your kids has been looking at you every
day since January.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">You might need to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">freshen</i>UP a bit.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Perhaps you have fallen back into
the old habits of last year, spending hours on social media and in front of the
television.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Last week I mentioned to
someone how I would just ‘quickly’ look at Twitter, only to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">wake</i>UP an hour later finding myself
looking at a video of something I have absolutely no interest in.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Old habits die hard!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">And maybe a quarter into the year
is a good time to reassess your goals and plans that you so carefully set out
in the beginning of the year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Are you
still working with a plan and using every minute of every day to the best of
your abilities?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Do you feel satisfied at
the end of each day with what you’ve accomplished?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">So let me dare you, go and create
time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Keep a diary, see what you spend
your time on and decide if that is what you really want to spend your time
on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Switch off the television, computer,
tablet, phone or whatever is eating away your time. Go for a walk, admire the
sunset, talk to your neighbour, and hug your spouse.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">And let’s <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">freshen</i>UP for the rest of this year!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The holidays are forgotten, the
school clothes are bought (at a ridiculous price!) and traffic is once again
crazy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Shopping malls quieten down and
holiday decorations have long since been packed away. It is 2015 and if you’ve
started working you might already be writing the “5” of 2015 without thinking
about it anymore.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It is <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">back to normal</i> for you, but is ‘normal’ going to be good enough
this time?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For years I’ve had the same
routine, every day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My alarm would go
off at 5:30.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would hit the snooze
button for the next 30 minutes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would
get up, shower, get dressed, drink coffee and leave my house in a rush at 6:30
for a 45 minute commute to work.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Often
by 9:00 I have not yet had anything to eat, and by 11:00 I would be tired and
completely unproductive.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Even though the flaws in my
system were so obvious, I religiously <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">keptit</i><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">UP</b>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>That was my ‘normal’ and in a way I felt safe knowing that every day
would be the same.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Until one glorious morning in December
last year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was still trying to
continue with my ‘normal’, but suddenly during the second snooze of the morning
I grabbed my phone, switched to the calculator and punched in a few numbers;
the result: 3 132 - the number of working days I’ve completed in my career so
far.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Without counting overtime, that <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">add</i>UP to more than 25 000 hours.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And according to the people that know, it
takes 10 000 hours of doing something before you can be considered an expert in
that particular ‘something’.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">While waiting for the alarm to go
off again it dawned on me… I should have been an expert in something by
now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But I’m not… not even close!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">My problem? Like so many people,
I got stuck.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stuck in the safety of
routine and the comfort of ‘normal’.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
went through the same routine every day, never once did it occur to me that I
can actually just set my alarm for half an hour later, and get a solid
uninterrupted 30 minutes of extra sleep.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Or that I can get up at the first alarm and perhaps start my day without
a rush. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I might even be able to have
breakfast!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">And so I changed my ‘normal’.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And it was scary!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would wake up at 5:29 and be anxious for
the next 31 minutes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would often worry
that I will be late, and I would stare at a fully stocked fridge, unable to
think of even one breakfast meal to prepare.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Then suddenly, halfway through
January, I was having a peaceful moment drinking coffee and eating breakfast
before the day started, when I realised how quickly we <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">can</i> change… our habits, our thoughts, our ‘normal’. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Gone were the stressful morning rushes, the
tiredness and the poor health habits. Change was changing life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">is indeed</i> possible to change the way in which you are building (and
living) your life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Age doesn’t matter,
nor does the time of year, where you live or what you do for a living.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All it takes is a choice. Choose to change the
daily routines and thought processes that break you down and start investing
in positive self-serving routines that will <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">build</i><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">UP</b> who you are and the person you are
becoming.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can get anywhere from anywhere. Don’t wait
for the right starting point.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">May 2015 be extraordinary in
every possible way!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<h2>
tree-is-UP, now put your feetUP</h2>
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Ahh, Christ-mas. It seems we’ve waited a long
time for it to come along.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">For most of us it is a time to gear-down
(before gearingUP again in January) after a year of expending energy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Time to plug-in and recharge.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Time to unwind. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Rest. Recuperate. It is a time of the year
that we look forward to…<o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Finally, we can slow down and have a bit
of me-time. Or so we think…<o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">With holidays come increased time with
family members.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The lovely ones we see (or
bear) once a year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“And <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">with</i> that”, as a mother recently voiced to
me, “I need to have the children around all day long! It’s only been a week or
so, and I’ve already circled the school starting date on the calendar.” “Don’t get
me wrong, I love the kids dearly, but having them (and their requests) around
all the time takes getting used to.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Yes, this holiday period is
billed as a time of rest.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, it's also comes with intense times of stress for some. </span></span></span><br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><u>We all deserve a breather during this (often
emotional) holiday period.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>While you’re
doing it, consider the following</u>: <br />
</span><strong><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Grow closer:</span></strong><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> During this
extended time with family, loved ones and friends, see this time together as a
time of building experiences and sharing good times. Take photos of family
laughing, kids opening presents, people swimming or enjoying a cool drink next
to the pool.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These are the good times we
look forward to – capture them (and only load them onto Facebook in January!)<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB">Unplug:
</span></b><span lang="EN-GB">Most communication (estimations are as much as 90%)
is non-verbal. Many parents restrict screen-time for the kids during the
holidays (while increasing their own gadget-time) forcing them to “play outside like we did when we were children.”
Here’s an idea for adults: why not join them? Put the phone (and other
electronics) down and join the play! Not every holiday-experience have to be
updated as a status. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />

respectfully:</span></span></strong><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> Conflict comes when people spend
time together.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We get on each other’s’
nerves.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s normal. But not every (little)
thing has to get us into battle mode. Treat conflict in a respectful
manner.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remember, young people around us
will learn from us in every situation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Parents,
“holiday” doesn’t mean the ‘moulding of my child’ stops. If things are too much
or too heated, get away from the situation for a bit and spend some time doing
something you like.<br />

parents only listen to them when they have time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Another study showed that only 20% of adults
feel they are listened to.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is the
perfect time to sit on the beach, lie next to the pool, stand by the fire, go for
a coffee and listen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your ears might be
the best investment you’ll make into the building of relationships during this
time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB">Consider
others:</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> Plainly said - be nice. While many of us revel in the celebratory
aspect of Christ-mas holidays, there are those for whom this is a time of
sadness and emotional turmoil. Whether you’re at Carols by Candlelight, Christ-mas
mass or a shopping centre… some people need a hug, smile or just eye contact
that says ‘you matter’. Look out for them. have patience with one another; offer to take a photo of someone it their arms are too short for a decent 'selfie'; let someone else pull out of a parking area or walk through he door first... be nice.</span></span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">In light of the passing of “The
President of the World” as we’ve heard reporting on the various news networks,
a few thoughts…<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Over the next few weeks, and many years
to come, people will reflect and reminisce about the colossus and icon called
Nelson Mandela.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">
</span><div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><strong><em>Our</em></strong> ‘Tata Madiba’ as he was affectionately
known over the latter years of his life left an indelible mark in many a life. Since
the news broke in the early hours of the morning (SA time) there have been many
emotions expressed in words and other loss-related emotions. The silence that fell over the Adelaide crowd during the minute of silence during the Ashes Test was a sign of the impact of Mandela. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">In our ‘work’ with people experiencing
emotional events, it is not uncommon to hear the words spoken on so many of the
news networks and radio stations, who dedicate playlists and hours to the great
leader… “we are shocked at the news…” and “I don’t know what to say…I feel
numb.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB">It
is OK to feel. We all show it in different ways.</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> In
particular, Gentleman, if you ‘well-up’ whilst listening to other recount
stories of Madiba, or find yourself feeling “that funny feeling in my throat” (as
someone expressed it today) when you talk about what he meant to you, remember,
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">it is normal to feel something.</i> Even
numbness – the feeling of not feeling anything or much – is a feeling.
Sometimes we feel numb purely because the news we hear with our ears still need
to be processed by the heart.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And so,
not really feeling anything is OK.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

process of grief </span></b><span lang="EN-GB">(stages of grief) takes us all
along a road of not feeling much/anything, past the point of anger, frustration
and unhappiness with the reality of what happened. Some of us take a turn-off
past a deep sadness, with utter regret and even depression, whilst some whizz
past with resilience, hope and optimism about the future that lies ahead, despite
the painful experience.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is now
prescriptive roadmap.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">We’ll all go along this journey in our own

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Let us take courage from Madiba’s words
when his close friend Chris Hani was killed during a potentially explosive
political time in South Africa.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He said:
“Let us use this pain to help us grown stronger, determined to use the
experience to make us better.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

</span><div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">As we all process the death of a “leader
that shaped leaders” (Barack Obama), let us use this ‘scar’ in our lives to
remind us all to grow towards becoming better people, striving towards
incorporating some of the attributes for which Nelson Rholihlahla Mandela was
known:<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Live a life of forgiveness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be generous with praise. Make people feel
they’re of value. Grow through tough situations. Encourage and inspire others
on their life-journey.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Live for more
than yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

let us breathe in our first breaths of life where Madiba is now a memory.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Let us live with resolve to live life to the
full as we celebrate his legacy.</span> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

impossible that anything ‘worse’ can happen to us; it feels like the sun has
set on us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I listened as a young man,

– not because I didn’t want to live; at 13, I just couldn’t bear the
responsibility of caring for my little brother. Years went by, the war ended,
I got married and even my ‘baby’ brother started a family with a wife he
loved.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sadly, they both died in an

(for various reasons) to their children. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">Our </span>encouragement at training sessions is often this:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It is normal to find that your ears are stuck in neutral, un-engaged
in the crazy-hour of the evening (or pre-school morning drill).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And, as life would have it, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">this</i> would normally be the time that
your beloved little rosy-cheeked ray of sunshine (or husband) would like to
tell you, in full detail, about the issue that all-consuming issue.
The only thing you want to bark is: “Go away”, “not now” or, the more polite
ones out there, “can’t you see I’m busy, please...?” But any of the afore mentioned
can deep-fry you in guilt…or worse, get the dreaded attitudinal-stare <span style="font-size: xx-small;">(pic left)</span></span></span></span></div>

Therefore, we encourage you to take time to listen to them. Young people are in a formative stage of their lives, and benefit from 'bouncing' their opinions and learnings against a safe ear. Be sure to play nice. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><strong>April 2013 - Eastern Cape</strong></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: x-small;"></span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><em>JBay</em> - It is natural to associate a place like Jeffreys Bay as a laid-back holiday town. The waves are plentiful; people relaxed...a small community closely knit in peaceful bliss.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Sadly though, as we have many times (re)discovered: Loss and life-changing events does not discriminate when it comes to financial status, location, religion or race. Loss affects us all - at some stage in our lives.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">It is for this very reason that we as <em>facing</em><strong>UP</strong> Support Services - <em>f</em><strong>USS</strong> for short - make a <em>f</em><strong>USS</strong> about equipping our young people and those who spend the most time with them, the teachers, with knowledge and skills to not only cope when facing a life-changing event, but also <em>support</em> and enable them to grow stronger and more resilient through the process. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">During the past three weeks of presenting Emotional Awareness Training (EAT) sessions with Educators in various schools in the Eastern Cape, we have realised that Educators who are (still) struggling to terms with negative life-changing events in their own lives, often find it very difficult to relate to learners who might have a similar loss in their lives. "Whenever Justin is sad in class, I know it is because of his mother who is no longer there. But what do I say to him? I'm still trying to figure out how I'm feeling..." said an Educator who recently loss her mother.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">In most cases, we have found that, when assisting young people through the process of growing through a challenging time in their lives, it's not as much a matter of "knowing what to say", but rather knowing how to listen. If you can 'hear' the pain in the story someone is telling you, then your response to that emotion will be a natural, genuine response. 'Giving advice' might feel like the right thing to do, however, the best thing to do is to listen and think how you would have felt in that situation. Should you feel that you can share a little bit of encouragement from your own life and own journey through a similar experience, then share your encouragement for their journey, by celebrating your own growth.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">If you are currently in a position of supporting someone who is going through a challenging time in their life and would like some help as you are going through that process with them, feel free to make contact with <em>f</em>USS. Through our range of partnerships in South Africa, as well as our relationship with This Way Up Youth Project (UK) we'd be happy to help!</span><br />
