Angisenathemba. Ngijule ngaphakathi kimi, kuma-antipode womcabango wami, umphefumulo wami noma yini isikhumba sami esivikelekile. Kepha angimi endaweni engenalutho. Ngaphansi kwami kunolwandle, olukhulu njengoba luzolile ngendlela engabekezeleleki futhi lumnyama.
Ngibhale zonke izindaba zami namanoveli, into yokuzilibazisa yakudala esilahliwe. Ngezindaba zami ngiphakamise zonke izimpilo zami, ngilinganisa enye yezindlela, ngihamba indlela ngayinye ekhomba lapho ngiya khona. Impela yingakho ngingenalutho olusele. Ngikhathele.
Izinyathelo zami zingiholela ngaphandle kwendlela emigwaqweni engaziwa yedolobha lapho ngihlala khona njalo. Othile ungibingelela emamatheka, kepha ngizwa sengathi ngixubekile phakathi kobuso obuningi kabi ukuba ngingabi omunye umuntu. Ngiyaqonda kuphela ukuthi ukuphela kugijinyiselwa umsindo wezingoma zami, ezakha umculo odabukisayo odabukisayo.
Ngizulazula phakathi kwezinkumbulo zasendulo, ezikhishwe ekuzifundiseni ngempilo eyaqala kudala. Bahlela ku-limbo yezithombe zami ze-memory sepia ngamazwibela wamanga, behlanganisa izikhathi okungenzeka ukuthi azange zenzeke.
Ingxenye ekude kakhulu ibonakala imnandi, kanti uma ngizama ukucabanga ngenkambo enkulu yanamuhla kubukeka sengathi angikadli eminyakeni eminingana. Ngiphawula ngezwi eliphansi: "isobho lama-alfabhethi."
Ngiza epaki endala. Ngithi "okudala" ngoba ngicabanga ukuthi bengike ngibe khona okungenani isikhathi esisodwa. Izinyawo zami zisheshisa izinyathelo. Manje kubonakala sengathi ngaso sonke isikhathi babeyibekile indlela. Bahamba beqhutshwa umuzwa "omdala".
Amagama amabili ahamba ze emqondweni wami: UCarolina no-Oak, ngenjabulo enkulu yokuthi bakhipha isikhumba sami futhi bavuse ukumamatheka kwami.
Ungilindile, futhi, emthunzini wesihlahla sekhulu. Ngiyazi ukuthi kwenzeka njalo ekuseni. Yisicelo sami sokugcina sesiboshwa, kuphela ukuthi kimi kuyilungelo eliphindaphindwa nsuku zonke lapho sibhekene nesigwebo se-Alzheimer's. Ngiyakwazi ukuba yimina futhi ngenhla kwalesi sigwebo esinonya sokukhohlwa.
Izinyathelo zami zifinyelela umvuthwandaba wazo phambi kweCarolina engiyithandayo, eduze kakhulu kwamehlo akhe, kuthulekile naphezu kwakho konke.
