Mpho Quotes

remember me as of ages ago and days gone long, When we’d go off at a tangent along; Thy page- dyed pieces among The rest I have known a poem.

The reason why we find it hard to deal with some situations is that we often get too deep into them that we end up being part of the problem

But when I am due… Keep local the chest to lay rest my simple skins in,

the greatest man is he who is part of himself

There is a difference between a poem and a writing incrusted with a feel of Poetry to fall within range

If with a sweeping heart I sow firstly this seeds, If too dearly deeds I give arms long, That will make tomorrow a better day to gift infancy’s years the sunshine song, For none cause, then has a better bottom than smiles of youth,

What out-of-the-way cause graze me grazed a lot, Undo me loose from the genuine ties of my destiny, What greater sin than a man’s blasphemy? If any to consume my inward person like the vile when hades burn still, If I know me well and I’m without doubt for real Of how I would feel at the triumph of mine deal What cause to trade the whole shebang, the lot I labored for?

What cause then, Take me far forth and far hind, Dare take me home faraway far and leave me far behind? What tale told untold to my furthest mind? A story I would rummage around and not find, If stories consigned to me all on form defined, What cause therefore, untruths familiar not to mankind Will slay me gone as assigned?

What cause then, to have me in hysterics of unknown kind? Far-off the clandestine black where my road I cannot find, What cause then, to submit me not here?

I do not know the words to describe my grief.

The Book of Forgiving: The Fourfold Path for Healing Ourselves and Our World, by Archbishop Desmond Tutu and his daughter, the Reverend Mpho Tutu.

When in doubt do the most loving thing.

Making sense only to yourself is the most feasible test for human personal understanding

We love the way we do because we don't know any other way

Beyond acts of right and wrong, those who journey negatively live possitively after and those who journey possitively after

The probabilitation of possibilities is the mother of many unrealistic ideas,uninformative decisions,inappropriate measures and unfair actions because most of the times we were approximate where we needth to be exact.

the total vacuity of world leadership thinking has lead to the practice of claiming to heal the world through politicising unviable theoretical means of finding world peace,what we need is just to cement the differences between people and there will be a piece of peace at every doorstep

We've been betrayed by hope to deny our sufferage by day

There’s only time left for me to read Mpho Tutu’s opening prayer about forgiveness called “The Prayer Before the Prayer.” I want to be willing to let go, to forgive. But dare not ask for the will to forgive, in case you give it to me And I am not yet ready. I am not yet ready for my heart to soften. I am not yet ready to be vulnerable again. Not yet ready to see that there is humanity in my tormentor’s eyes Or that the one who hurt me may also have cried I am not yet ready for the journey. I am not yet interested in the path I am at the prayer before the prayer of forgiveness Grant me the will to want to forgive. Grant it to me not yet but soon Can I even form the words? Forgive me? Dare I even look? Do I dare to see the hurt I have caused: I can glimpse all the shattered pieces of that fragile thing That soul trying to rise on the broken wings of hope But only out of the corner of my eye. I am afraid of it. And if I am afraid to see How can I not be afraid to say: Forgive me? Is there a place where we can meet? You and me The place in the middle where we straddle the lines Where you are right and I am right too. And both of us are wrong and wronged Can we meet there? And look for the place where the path begins The path that ends when we forgive.
