This portrait of me is a depiction of the joy that consistently rests over my face, not because of the absence of challenges (potential joy thieves) but rather due to God’s glory which is similarly consistently radiant over my life.
This smile is a non-verbal language carrying the power to set at ease the humans surrounding me, to console, birth hope and encouragement. It inspires, empowers and influences before my voice and actions get the chance to.
It is a reflection of the sincere longing engraved within my heart to shine the light of love and hope with the human race.
And that slightly crooked front tooth you see đŸ™‚ is a demonstration of how pure beauty surely lies within imperfections.
I AM Namatshego.
I AM the LIGHT of the world.
My smile is just one of the effortless ways through which I shine this light.
