1. No one has it all figured out.
2. Being nice is overrated, be kind, be fair, be understanding, not "nice".
3. To love is to be vulnerable, let your guard down.
4. Good or bad, you can learn from everybody.
Boeing 707 low pass at Mashonaland Flying Club Air Day in Harare Zimbabwe back in 1995. First pass was around 400 knots at extremely low altitude followed by a second slow pass at 125 knots with flaps 40. Seeing a jet that size moving that low and that fast is unreal.

@loiceMututuvar1 Everytime I'm reading these things I'm amazed at people's inability to write proper sentences and words. Like just type proper Shona or English!
Passengers flying first class on British Airways’ Boeing 747s have expressed concerns about a redesign that includes windows in some lavatories. One woman traveling to New York voiced her discomfort over the lack of blinds. A stewardess reportedly responded, “Madam, if someone is clinging to the side of this aircraft at 35,000 feet, they’ve earned the view.
🔸Most successful Govts would kill to have a populace like Zimbabwe - people who love to work, people who don’t expect handouts, people who will turn state lemons into lemonade, people who want an education, people who are prepared to hustle day and night, people who make a plan, people who are resourceful, people who want the dignity of being able to put food on the table and roof over their family’s heads, people who will do whatever they can to make a dollar out of 50cents. Yet we have a regime that has no respect for its human capital and will do anything in its power to make the masses suffer. It’s a real shame.
Imagine if we had an ecosystem that worked? People would be grinding in factories and farms. Entrepreneurs would be thriving in business. Service providers would be delivering. The country would be super successful and there would be plenty to go round. Proof of this is how Zimbabweans thrive when they leave the country and operate in normal environments. We grind so hard that locals accuse us of taking up their space. This expertise and ambition should be expended on building this country but sadly it can’t.
A nation rises or falls on the quality of its leaders. Leadership either gives you a functional ecosystem where the masses can thrive or a broken one where dreams die.
We need new leaders.🇿🇼
