Ndinofunga kuti izvi zvinoita kuti kurota kuwedzere kukosha. Ndakadaidza hope dzacho. Mharidzo yeMutumwa wechina.
Chiroto chaJohn Scotram - Sabata, Gumiguru 22, 2011
Muchiroto changu, ndinozviona ndiri muguta rinoratidzika kuva mune imwe nguva. Ndiri munzvimbo inotyisa, ine upenyu yeguta diki, senguva pfupi magetsi asati asvika. Ndinozvitarisa pasi ndoona kuti ndakapfeka hembe dzisinganzwisisike. Iwo ese ane ruvara rwebrown yekare uye bhurugwa rinongodzika kusvika pazasi pebvi, parinosungwa pamwe chete nesimbi. Ndinopfeka shangu dzedehwe nhema, dzakakwenenzverwa, sekuti hauchadzitenga nhasi. Dehwe racho rakakora kwazvo, uye shangu dzacho ndedzemumba, hunyanzvi hwemhando. Ndine masokisi akakora, makushe anondikwenya zvishoma. Nguo yangu yepamusoro yakaita sejasi remuswe uye inodzika pasi pemagaro angu. Ndinoziva kuti ichi ndicho chipfeko chakajairika chevanhu vakawanda vakandipoteredza, uye handifadzi kutariswa muboka. Ndinoona marambi egasi kwose kwose pachikwere, uye ndakanyatsojeka kuti ndiri munguva pfupi kusati kwaiswa magetsi emagetsi. Vanhu vakandikomberedza vanotaura Chirungu uye ndinoona kuti rurimi rwaamai chirungu. (Zvose zvaitaurwa muhope dzangu zvaiva muChirungu chekare, sezvo chisisataurwe, asi ndakachinzwisisa.)
Ndinobva ndanzwa nzara. Ndinosarudza kushanyira imwe yenzvimbo dzakawanda dzekutandarira dziri muno pakati pedhorobha. Matumba acho ese akavakwa nematanda akakora uye ndeechinyakare. Ipapo ziso rangu rinobata rimwe rakatakura chikwangwani chikuru chemuti pamusoro pedumba. Chinyorwa chinoti, "Hamburger." Ndiri kuona zvino kuti iyi haisi yenguva yandinoona ndichishandurirwa, asi ndiri kuswedera pedyo nenzvimbo yekudya. Seri kwetafura yemapuranga, iyo inosvika kune mutengesi uye kureba kwedumbu rangu, ndinoona murume ane chimiro chinoshamisa. Akasiyana nevanhu vakandikomberedza, vanobva kuCaucasia seni, pasina anosiya. Pakutanga kuona, haaiti seanovimbika. Asi maonero aya anochinja gare gare paanondishumira. Ane ganda rakasviba zvakanyanya, rinenge dema, zvakadaro haana hunhu hwemunhu mutema, asi anondiyeuchidza zvakanyanya nezvemuArab. Bvudzi rake rakamonana uye dema-dema uye rinodonha mumafungu kusvika pasi pemapfudzi ake. Ndinorangarira chiso chake chete.
Anotora odha yangu yehamburger obva atanga nekugadzirira, izvo zvinoenda zvakasiyana zvachose pane zvandaitarisira. Kutanga, anotora bhandi hombe, rakatenderera, rine dhayamita yemasendimita 12, uye anorikamura kuva zvidimbu zviviri asingashandisi banga. Izvo "zvichekwa" zvinotaridzika zvakachena sekunge zvakachekwa nebanga. Handikwanise kutsanangura kuti akaita sei “manomano” aya. Paanoisa mahafu maviri pasi pakaunda hombe yakagadzirwa nematanda ane ruvara rwakajeka, divi rawo rekunze rakasiyana riri pasi, uye ndinoona kuti mahafu maviri ane zvimiro zvakasiyana. Iyo yepamusoro hafu yechingwa chehamburger yakaonda, uye chikamu chayo chemuchinjikwa chinofanana nemwedzi crescent (iri concave), asi hafu yepasi yakadzika uye yakafanana nendiro.
Mushure meizvi, murume anoisa ndiro mbiri hombe patafura, dzose dzinoenderana nehukuru hwechigadziko chechingwa chehamburger. Mune imwe ndiro, ndinoona muto mutsvuku unondiita kuti nditye zvishoma. Ndiro inozadzwa kusvika pamuromo nemuto uyu uye inenge ichityisidzira kufashukira. Neimwe nzira ndinoziva kuti iyi haisi yakajairika muto wematomatisi, asi ropa. Asi handimisi murume wacho—ndinoziva kuti ndinofanira kugamuchira iyi hamburger. Mune imwe ndiro, mune madomasi makuru maviri, mashizha akawanda eretisi, uye zvimwe zvinhu zvakasvibirira, zvandisingayeuke zvakadzama. Asi ndinoziva kuti zvese zvinodyiwa nemuriwo.
Nokukurumidza kunokurumidza mheni, murume wacho anokamura madomasi acho nounyanzvi kuva zvidimbu zvina zvematomatisi, zvakare achishandisa maoko ake chete uye asina banga, uye anoaisa muhafu yepasi yechingwa chehamburger kuti imwe nzvimbo isachengeteke pakati. Ipapo, sechamupupuri, murume wacho anotora lettuce inosiya imwe-ne-imwe kubva mundiro ndokuiisa imwe pashure peimwe kutenderedza hafu yemadomasi muchikamu chepasi chechingwa cheHamburger, kuitira kuti denderedzwa remashizha 24 relettuce riumbwe. Kuvhura kwasara kuri pakati pemadomasi. Zvose zvinotaridzika zvakashongedza.
Ndobva ndaona kuti murume ane grill yenyama pasi pekaunda yekutengesa. Indiro inopisa, pandinogona kuona nyama yemombe hombe yegiredhi rekutanga. Neunyanzvi, anoitenderedza uye yagadzirira. Anoisa chimedu chenyama pakati pehafu yepamusoro yechingwa chehamburger, uye zvino ndoziva kuti nzvimbo iri pakati pemadomasi halves yakaitirwa chii. Kana uchibatanidza hafu yepamusoro yechingwa chehamburger nehafu yepasi, chimedu chenyama chaizonyatsokwana pakati pemahafu mana emadomasi. Murume wacho anondiudza kuti muto mutsvuku chete ndiwo unogona kubata hafu yechingwa pamwe chete, uye kuti tinoda ndiro yose yemuto kuti tiite. Ndinoona murume achizadza hafu yepasi yechingwa chehamburger nemuto uye mbiya yese ichipinda mukati. Handichaoni mashizha elettuce nehafu yematomatisi uye murume achiunganidza hamburger hofori achiisa hafu yepamusoro nechidimbu chenyama munzvimbo yepasi. Anonditambidza hamburger uye hameno kuti inodhura. Murume wacho anoti, “Kana uchichida, hachibhadhari chinhu.”
Ndinodya hamburger ndoona kunakirwa kwakasimba kunge nyama mbishi. Ndinoshamisika kuti ndinoidya nokuti ndiri mirivo, seSeventh-day Adventist. Ndichiri kudya hamburger, pfungwa dzangu dzinojekerwa. Ini ndinonzwisisa kamwechete, zvinorehwa nechiratidzo zvakajeka, uye kuti ndezve "kururama nekutenda," iyo ine zvikamu zviviri. Chimwe chikamu china Jesu, uye chimwe chikamu chikuru chine isu sekereke yake. (Nyama iri muhafu yepamusoro yehamburger inomiririra muviri Wake, nepo chikamu chezvinomera chiri muhafu yepasi chinomiririra mharidzo yehutano yeAdventist.) Zviri pachena nezveshoko rengirozi yechina, yandakagamuchira mumavhiki maviri apfuura muzvikamu zviviri. Mushure mekudya hamburger, ndinonzwisisa kamwechete, zvakanyatsojeka kuti ndakasangana nechimwe chinhu chakakosha uye ino ndiyo nguva yandinofanira kuratidzwa zvakanyanya.
Ndakagara zvangu patafura yakatarisana nesnack bar paive pakachena. Ipapo ndinoona mumwe murume achiuya, uyo anobva kuCaucasia, uye kufanana neni, ane bvudzi duku rasara mumusoro make, kunyange zvazvo asati anyanya kuchembera. Ndinofunga ane makore anenge 35 kana 40. Anouya patafura yangu uye ndinoona kuti anotaridzika zvakanyanya, akasuruvara kwazvo. Ndinonzwa tsitsi uye rudo rweushamwari kwaari, kunyange ndisati ndavaziva. Anouya pedyo ogara zvake patafura yangu pasina mubvunzo. Ndinomubvunza kuti sei akasuruvara kudaro, uye anondiudza kuti ane zvinetso noupenyu hwake hwomudzimu. Akatsvaka upenyu hwake hwose kuna Jesu asi haana kumbowana chokwadi chakazara. Izvozvo zvakamushayisa mufaro zvokuti akanga asisakwanisi kuwana nyaradzo mumhuri yake, uye aisanzwisisa chinangwa choupenyu hwake. Pakarepo ndakabva ndaona kuti murume uyu anoda shoko randichangobva kugamuchira. Ndinomutsanangurira “kururama kunobva pakutenda” uye kuti hachisi chokwadi kuti pamuchinjikwa zvinhu zvose zvakapera. Ndichiri kutsanangura izvi kwaari nemufananidzo wehamburger, ndichisimbisa kukura kwakaita basa kumunhu wese mukereke yaMwari, ndinoona chiso chake chichitanga kupenya. Maziso ake ose ari kupenya, uye ndinoona kuti ari kufara zvino. Takambundikirana toronga kuti auye kuzonamata Sabata rinotevera kuchurch kwangu. Ndinoziva kuti haasi muAdventist, asi anofunga semumwe uye anoda kurarama saiye.
PaSabata rinotevera, ndinozviona ndimire muforamu yechechi huru kwazvo yeAdventist. Kune vanhu vakawanda vanotaura nenzwi riri pasi. Varume nevakadzi vese vakapfeka zvakanaka uye zvine ruremekedzo. Kwakanyarara zvikuru kupfuura muungano dzeAdventist mazuva ano. Ndichiri munguva umo kwakanga kusina magetsi. Imba yacho inobatidzwa nemarambi egasi. Ikozvino ndiri kuona shamwari yangu yekuresitorendi yesnack ichiuya kwandiri. Chiso chake hachina kupenya, uye anoratidzika akasuruvara zvikuru zvakare. Ndinoda kumunyaradza. Anoti, “Kusava nechokwadi kwakanga kuchiwedzera mandiri pamusoro pokuti mashoko pamusoro pebasa redu angava echokwadi here. Unowana kupi vimbiso yokuti izvi zvose ichokwadi?” Ndinomutarisa nerudo uye ndoti, “Magwaro Matsvene ose nezvinyorwa zvaEllen G. White zvizere nekusimbisa. Asi iye anoti, “Ndakarava zvinhu zvose mumazuva mashoma ano, asi handigoni kuchengeta pfuma yamashoko, zvose zvinoratidzika kuva zvinotondivhiringa. Ipapo ndinonyemwerera nokuti ndinomunzwisisa, uye ndinomuudza nemutauro wangu wekare wechiRungu kuti, “Shamwari yangu, hausati wanzwisisa kuti Rugwaro mukaka wakapfupikiswa. Unonzwa sei kana ukanwa rita remukaka?" Anopindura kuti, “Zvakanaka uye zvinogutsa.” Ndinobvunzazve kuti, “Unonzwa sei kana wanwa kiroti chemukaka wakakonyedzwa?” Iyewo anonyemwerera zvino ndokuti, “Pakaipa. Ndinogona kurutsa." “Hongu,” ndinoti, “ndizvo zvakaitika kwauri. Iwe waida kunwa mumazuva mashoma, huwandu hwemukaka wakanyungudutswa unoenderana negironi imwe kana maviri emukaka wakajairika. Izvi zvanyanya. Dzimwe nguva, unofanira kumbozorora kuti ugaye.” Ndinomuudza zvakare chiratidzo chehamburger uye kukosha kwebasa redu muchirongwa cheruponeso. Chiso chake zvino chapenya zvakare.
Pataikurukura handina kuziva kuti dzimwe hama nehanzvadzi dzaiva muforamu dzakanga dzatiziva uye dzanzwa hurukuro yedu. Pakarepo ndinozviona ndakombwa neboka guru rehama. Varume nevakadzi vanenge voda kundimhanyira. Vese vanofarira nyaya yacho zvekuti handikwanise kuvapikisa. Vanondisundidzira nekugogodza ndisingafungire kuti vabudise zvese zvandinoziva kubva mandiri. Kunyange zvazvo ndichinetswa zvikuru, ndinonzwa kuti ichi chinhu chakanaka. Pandinovaudza zvese, ndinoona zviso zvavo zvichipenyawo. Kamwe chete, vazere nomufaro! Zvimwe zvakawanda zvinondishungurudza, asi kamwe kamwe tinonzwa sairini, uye munhu wose anofanira kupinda “muhoro.” Chiitiko chinokosha chinotanga.
Ndinoti “horo” nokuti, pandinopinda muhoro yechechi yeAdventist, handizvioni ndiri muchechi yakajairika ine mabhenji emapuranga pauriri hwakati sandara, asi ndakamira kuseri kwemutsara wokuseri wezvigaro, izvo zvakarongwa zvokuti mutsara woga woga unotevera uri pamwero wakakwirira kupfuura uri mberi, sehoro yehurukuro payunivhesiti huru kana kuti horo huru yekokorodzano yenzvimbo yekokorodzano. Ndinoona zvigaro zvese zvakazadzwa, asi pasina zviso, sezvo ini ndakamira kumashure kwemunhu wese uye ndiri panzvimbo yepamusoro-soro yekamuri. Iye zvino ndava kuona kuti shamwari yangu yakamira kuruboshwe rwangu, uye kuruboshwe rwake kune mutungamiriri weungano huru iyi. Mapeji akakomberedzwa uye kune mabhanga maviri emabhenji, ayo akapatsanurwa nepakati nemasitepisi anoenda pasi kupodium. Ndinoziva kuti zvigaro zvekuruboshwe zvakazadzwa nemaAdventist, asi pandinotarisa ipapo, ndinoona rima chete uye handikwanise kusiyanisa miviri yevanhu. Kusiyana neizvi, ini ndinoona macontours eAdventist mubhangi chairo zvakajeka.
Papodium, mukadzi anotanga kutaura. Anopa mharidzo yakakosha yandisinganzwisise zvakadzama. Asi ndinoziva kuti ari kutaura pamusoro pezvandakawana, kuti musoro mukuru ndewokuti “kururama kunobva pakutenda,” uye kuti uku ndiko kutanga kwechiedza chengirozi yechina. Ndinofara sezvandinoona kuti maAdventist mazhinji ari muzvigaro zvakanaka anotanga kupenya. Kamwe kamwe, muAdventist akapfeka zvipfeko zvitema anoda kusimuka mumutsara wechipiri uye ndinoziva kuti i“gainsayer” (mupikisi, mupindiri). (Iri shoko rakauya mupfungwa dzangu kazhinji kazhinji muchiroto zvokuti ndinoda kurisimbisa, ndichisiya kunyange mushanduro muchimiro charo chapakuvamba.) Ipapo chimwe chinhu chinoitika chinondityisa zvikuru. Kamwe kamwe, vaAdventist vatatu muchechi vakamira shure kwake vanobudisa pfuti. Ndiri kuona kuti pfuti yekare ine pfuti imwe chete. Vanobata pfuti mumusoro memunhu anogaya ndokupfura. Pavanodhonza nhare, handinzwe kurira uye kuona pasina moto kana utsi. Musoro weanopikisa, wandinongoona kubva kumashure, unowira kurudyi, uye "afa." Handioni ropa kana maronda. Haatombopfakanyiki. Mukadzi wacho akaramba achitaura nguva yose asina kufadzwa, uye ndinoona kuti maAdventist ari mubhengi rekurudyi anopenya sei zvakanyanya.
Zvino anenge pakati pemitsara, chinhu chimwe chete chinoitika zvakare. Anogaya anoda kusimuka ovhiringa mukadzi wacho omutsa zvisizvo zvakapusa. Kumashure kwake, vaAdventist vatatu vanonangidzira pfuti dzavo dzekare kwaari uye vanodhonza pfuti. Hapana utsi, hapana kuputika, kana moto, kana maronda, asi musoro weanopikisa unowira pafudzi rake rorudyi uye iye akanyarara.
Ndobva ndaona a gainsayer akananga mberi kwangu. Pakarepo, mutungamiriri, shamwari yangu, neni takabata rudzi rumwe chete rwepfuti mumaoko edu topfura. Uyezve, hapachina inzwi, kana vanga, asi munyengeri afa. Ndiyo yaive yekupedzisira.
Zvino mukadzi ari papodhiyamu anoita kudaidzira kutendeuka uye kuzvipira patsva kuna Ishe Jesu neruzivo rutsva nezve magumo edu. Anokumbira vose vanoda kuzvipira kuna Mwari kuti vauye kuchikuva. Vese maAdventist kubva kubhengi rekurudyi vanodzika — vese kunze kwevafi vatsivi. Pandinotarisa kuruboshwe rwangu kune mamwe zvigaro, ndinoona kuti munhu wose akambogara ipapo akanga abuda muhoro. Pakarepo, vese veAdventist vari papodium vanotendeukira kwandiri, uye mukadzi anotanga kuvatungamira. Vari kukwira masitepisi vachiuya kwandiri vane zviso zvaipenya. Ndinoona kuti vanoda kuratidza kutenda kwavo kune mumwe munhu. Asi ini handidi kunamatwa navo, saka ndinoda kutiza. Ndichiita izvi, ndinotendeudzira musoro wangu zvishoma kurudyi uye kumadziro kumashure kwangu ndinoona hofori, yakachekwa-chekwa muchinjikwa, uyo sezviri pachena wakanga uripo nguva yose ndisina kumbozviona.
Zvakare, ndinotendeukira kuboka rinotungamirirwa nomukadzi, uyo achiri kuswedera pedyo neshamwari yangu, mutungamiriri neni. Asi ikozvino ndinonzwisisa kuti havadi kundinamata, asi vanopfugama nemabvi avo pamberi pemuchinjikwa. Ndinomirira kusvika vasvika pandiri mukadzi ndokunowira pamberi pangu. Panguva iyoyo, kubva muruoko rwake pfuti ine dhizaini yakafanana nedzimwe. Ipapo ndinopfugama pamberi pomukadzi—kwete kuti ndimuremekedze, asi kuti ndipe rukudzo nokunamata kuna Jesu, pamwe chete naye. Ndakatsikitsira kwazvo pamabvi angu, zvokuti maoko angu ari kutsika pasi. Ikozvino ndaona kuti mumaoko angu ega ega ndine pfuti ndokuiisa pamberi pepfuti yemukadzi iri pasi. Pfuti dzangu mbiri dzava pamberi chaipo pepfuti yemukadzi uye pamwe chete, dzinoita katatu. Pfuti dzangu mbiri dzakaiswa nenzira yekuti bhodhoro reimwe rinonongedza pamubato werimwe.
Mushure mekunge tose tapfugama pamwe chete nekutenda Mwari nedzidziso Dzake dzese uye nechiedza chitsva, tinosimuka zvakare. Mukadzi wacho anoti kwandiri ndimene, shamwari yangu, uye mutungamiriri, kuti zvino tinofanira kunyora zvechigarire zvatakasangana nazvo muno nhasi muungano ino. Tinofanira kuenda iko zvino kuhofisi yemutungamiriri tonyora zvese zvakaitika muno mujenari rechechi, kuti izvi zvisazorasika.
Tinopinda muhofisi yemutungamiriri nematanda ayo matema. Anodhonza bhuku guru rechechi pasherufu pamadziro ndokurivhura nokuoma kukuru, sezvo iro rakakura zvikuru uye rinorema. Mapeji acho anoita seakakura kwandiri. Anobva atanga kugadzira zvinyorwa zvake nequill neingi. Zvinhu zvese zvine mwero. Pashure penguva yakati, tose tinosaina—mutungamiriri, ini, shamwari yangu, mukadzi wacho, uye vakawanda vaivapo. Mutungamiriri anodzorera bhuku pasherufu, uye tinoenda tichifara uye nezviso zvinopenya.
Sabata rinotevera, ndakamira pamberi peimba huru yechechi yevachena kwandakanga ndamboita Sabata kare. Ndichiri panguva imwe chete sepakutanga. Panguva ino, handisi munhandare, asi kunze kwenzvimbo tsvene huru yeungano. Ndakaona kuti ichechi yemapuranga ine pendi chena. Haisi itsva, asi haisi yekare; chena haina kuchena zvakanyanya, asi haina kusvibiswa zvakanyanya.
Shamwari yangu iripo neni, uye takamirira kutanga kweshumiro. Kamwe kamwe, mikova miviri yesuo guru inozaruka, uye mukadzi wacho anobuda achimhanya. Anochema neshungu uye neshungu, anotiza akananga kusango diki. Ini neshamwari yangu tinomhanya tichimutevera, tinosvika paari pamberi pesango, uye shamwari yangu inomubata nerudo. Zvishoma nezvishoma uye nokushivirira kukuru, ndinotanga kutaura naye. Ari kuchema zvekuti handisi kunzwisisa zvaari kuda kutaura. Ndakatoziva pakangovhurwa magonhi mahombe maviri echechi, kuti pane chinhu chakaipa chakanga chaitika. Mukadzi wacho paanoti dzikamei, ndinozonzwisisa zvaanotaura: “Mutungamiriri! Afa! Pandakauya kuchechi kuseni kuti ndichenese zvese nekugadzirira kunamata ndakawana akarara muhofisi make pasi. Handizivi kuti pane akamuuraya here kana kuti akafa nechirwere chemoyo. Asi akafa!” Anochemazve achichema neshungu. Kamwe kamwe, zvinouya mundangariro dzangu nesimba rinopisa: “BHUKU REKEREKE! Mwari wangu, pamwe vaida kuba bhuku rechechi!”
Zvichakadaro, dzimwe hama dzinosvika, totora mukadzi wacho mumaoko edu todzokera kuchechi nokukurumidza sezvaanobvumira kuchema kwake. Pakarepo, nomufaro uye nokufunganya kukuru, tinomhanyira muhofisi yomukuru. Chokwadi avete pasi afa. Asi handioni ropa. Akarara akatarisa pasi. Bhuku rechechi richiri pamasherufu. Tinobudisa bhuku rinorema, rakasungwa nedehwe, toriisa padhesiki romutungamiriri uye tinotanga kutsvaka kupinda kubva paSabata mazuva manomwe zvisati zvaitika. Zvinotora nguva yakareba kuti tishandure mapeji makuru, anorema. Peji imwe neimwe yakanyorwa mumakoramu maviri. Isu tinozopedzisira tawana mavambo ekupinda-iri papeji rekurudyi mukoramu yekurudyi, kutanga nepakati pechitatu.
Inoti "Church Conference 18XX" mumabhii makuru, matema. (Handina kukwanisa kuona gore chairo, nekuti mavara anga asina kujeka. Ndinoratidza kuti neXX mugore.)
Pazasi pemusoro uyu pakanyorwa mazita evaivepo, vese vandakanganwa. Seri kwezita rega rega pane basa remutori wechikamu. Ndinoshamisika zvakare kuti mazita ebasa ekare sei. Pane gweta, mufundisi, muvezi, uye amai vemba. Ini handione zvimwe, kana kuti ndazvikanganwa.
Rondedzero yevanopinda inopera kumagumo kwepeji rekurudyi muchikamu chechipiri painoti: "Pazuva rino, zvinotevera zviitiko zvakakosha zvakaitika mumba muno:
Tinokurumidza kuvhura peji. Uye tobva taziva kuti chimedu chihombe chine rectangular chabvarurwa kubva papeji rinotevera. Koramu yese yekuruboshwe haipo, uko zviitiko nechiedza chitsva icho isu tese takanga tagamuchira zvakanyorwa. Tese tinotya kufa. Kamwe kamwe, mukadzi wacho anoti, “Mwari wangu, ndaona bepa rechimiro ichocho mangwanani ano pamusuwo wehofisi yasabhuku, raroverwa nechipikiri. Pamwe richiripo!” Tose zvedu tinotendeukira kumusuo ndokunzvera mativi ose ari maviri. Bepa harichina. Paive nechipikiri, munhu anoona kaburi kadiki kunze kwemusuwo wehofisi yemutungamiriri.
Zvakare, ndinotendeukira kune vamwe vese. Ndinoona kuti zviso zvavo hazvisisina kupenya. Mudzimai anochema zvekare. Ndinoziva kuti zvaitika nhasi zvakamurwadza zvekuti haafi akazvikanganwa kweupenyu hwake hwese.
Ipapo ndinozvitarisa pasi uye hembe dzangu dzakabva dzatanga kuchinja. Ndinoona zvinhu zvose sezviri kufamba zvishoma nezvishoma, apo matinji angu anochinja achidzokera kubhurukwa rangu remazuva ose ebhuruu uye kukwenya kwemasokisi emvere kunomira. Shangu dzangu dzinodzokera kushangu dzangu dzekubasa kupurazi uye zvino ndapfeka hembe yechirimo isingaremi. Pakarepo ndinonzwa inzwi guru richibva kumusoro uye shure kwangu. Pakarepo ndakabva ndaona kuti ndiko kwandakanga ndaona muchinjiko mukuru wemuti muhoro. Inzwi rakanga riri guru uye rine ruzha, asi risingafadzi uye rinodanidzira nemwoyo wose, “Uye zvino chava chijana chako!”
