Maandag Magic!

Ja, vandag gaan ek iets nuuts probeer. Hester het my uitgedaag om ‘n Afrikaanse pos te doen. Ek sukkel ‘n bietjie met die lees en skryf van die Taal. Maar, soos hulle sê daar aan die Afrika suidpunt… wie nie waag nie, wen nie!

Yep, today I’m trying something new. Hester dared me to do an Afrikaans post. I battle  a little with the reading and writing of the Language. But, as they say down at Africa’s southern point, nothing ventured, nothing gained!

As julle wonder oor my sukkel met die Taal, ek blameer my lisdexia. Simpel. Ja, ek het Afrikaans gedoen op skool. Ja, eerste taal hoër graad daar boonop! So… eintlik het ek nie veel van ‘n verskoning nie… behalwe my lisdexia en swak spelling!

If you wonder about my struggle with the Language, I blame my lisdexia. Simple. Yep, I did Afrikaans at school. Yep, first language, higher grade, to boot. So, I actually don’t have much of an excuse… apart from lisdexia and my weak spelling!

Dis nou waar die magic begin. Ek was nog altyd lief vir die Afrikaans se taal. Mens kan ‘n ander so lekker sleg sê, sonder laat mens eintlik slegte dinge sê! Magic!!

That’s where the magic begins. I’ve always been fond of the language. One can tell off someone else, without ever saying anything ugly. Magic!!

That’s it then… little things in life often capture the magic moments! Like a post by Hester and her reference to Tina, another Afrikaans blogger’s site. There I spotted a bubble… which reminded me of this little man’s happy magic moment!

PS – Oh, I almost forgot… happy Monday!! Mag al jou planne vir die week waar word!!
