Brother Johnny's sun  

Posted by Rushay Booysen in , , , ,

I find it amusing that wherever i find myself in my community people always refer to me on my dad's name example Hi Johnny,Brother Johnny's son,Broeder Johnny,John they bluntly refuse to refer to me as Rushay, after all i am a being standing on my own two legs right!So i had to sit down and analyze this situation in retrospect and understand its root,i believe there is a root to every problem every situation,good or bad.What creates that reaction how far was the seed planted just to name a few of a collection of thoughts that runs through my mind,yes i know i often over-analyze a situation.I also got to acknowledge i come from a long line of people that sewed seeds and im bearing the fruit of that seeds that was sown.I have to thank this people some of them i never got to know some of them is around me right now i will never stop reiterating the importance of having and being a foundation in your kids life.A kid does not necessarily mean your own biological creation but these beings thats all around you.So i heard many stories from my dad about his family and i guess so they passed on stories from generation to generation and sometimes it just sounds like stories,it does not take on the form of actual happening in peoples lives anymore cos it took place in another lifetime,i guess once again.So all these voices that called me on my dad's name is a reflection of the seeds he planted in other people's lives and me being his seed they are calling me from the root of my trunk which would be my father!
