Stem the Tide

I’m think I’m trying. I like to believe that I’m trying to find peace, to find some sort of resolution and acceptance for everything that has happened to me, but I have moments. Moments when the unfairness and the anger and the rage bubble to the surface and all I can think about it revenge, but what is the price to pay for that.

I like to think that I’ll eventually be able to give forgiveness, but there’s that big part of me that thinks that forgiving is saying that what they did is okay, but I can’t think that way. It’s more like saying what you did is not okay, but I’m not willing to carry that around with me anymore, I’m not willing to carry you around in my head and in my life anymore. It’s about freeing myself from the grip of the past that keeps coming back in the anger.

With the start of the new year, it’s a chance to change the way that I look at things, and the way that I look at life. I’ve ralized that you can’t change other people or what they think, or how they act, and that it shouldn’t be my concern. I only have to worry about one person and that is myself, even my parents and my friends can take care of themselves and their lives. It’s not like I don’t care about them and want the best for them, but I can’t control them and it’s not my responsibility to. It’s not my job to fix anybody, and it’s not my job to explain myself or my life to anybody. I know who I am and what I stand for, and there’s no oint getting angry about what anyone else says or does because it will never and can never change that.

Forgiveness isn’t about them, it’s about freeing myself!

One of these days

Okay, so I’ve actually been doing some voice-over demos and trying to submit them to get some work. I’m guessing that this is where I start my massive marketing campaign to  get myself out there. Audio books,  computer-based training (cbt), web-based training, narration, commercials, all that fun stuff.

I am ready to get this show on the road.

The wonderful world of voice-over’s

Okay, I’m tossing my hat into the voice over world. I have done some work before for Voiceprint Canada, as well, as working on a project for the Edmonton Public Library in connection with Chinook Multimedia, but this is the first time that I’m trying to work on it seriously. As well, I’m sure that my writing skills will come in handy with writing copy if it’s needed for clients. I have my website at – http://voice123.com/dumisileowane – and we’ll see where it takes me from here. I’ll keep you all updated because I’m sure that you’re all keen to hear.

Hello world!

What can I say, sometimes the everyday rigmarole causes one to forget to lighten up, and laugh more at life because we’re not getting out of here alive, so we may as well have some fun while we’re here. This is my way of having a bit more fun in my life, and not looking at life through such serious eyes.
