Dear Sokwanele and other bloggers hopefully someone in Zim can take this to Jenni and Magodonga
***************************************
Dear Jenni, Dear Magodonga
Jennie we met a few years ago in May 2005 around the time Murambatsvina happened and I told you then how I admired you for your courage. I am amazed still that you carry on inspite of all these insumountables that sorround you. I wanted you and all the women that work with you to know I think of you often and pray for you and your families. Your courage inspires me to imagine a better Zimbabwe, one that will use all these energies to better our country. What I know for sure is they might imprison and maim people but they can never imprison people’s spirits. You are a testimony to this..
Thank you for teaching us to keep hoping for a better Zimbabwe is possible and for demonstrating what courage is.
You are in my prayers always.
With kind and warm regards
Beth
