Bennie Foster 11 hrs · EEN DAG SE BROOD Ek dink hongerte beteken die behoefte om te smag na iets wat jou aan die lewe moet hou. In die begin is die hongerpyne amper ondraaglik vir ’n ruk en dan bedaar dit, maar die smagting na iets om te eet bly en jy voel ongemaklik. Naarheid en duiseligheid kan ook na twaalf ure voorkom afhangende hoe sterk jy is. Na die tweede dag is daar geen pyn meer nie. Dit voel net of iemand aan jou brein krap... Na vyf dae gee jy nie meer om nie. Niks maak meer saak nie... Daar is sekere dinge wat gesê word onder die mensdom om te verhoed dat ander eet. “Ek het nie brood vir jou vandag nie Willem. Ek moes gaan koop het, maar ek het nie. Kom môre weer...” Jy moes maar eerder gesê het. “Gaan slaap vanaand honger Willem. Jy sal niks oorkom nie” ’n Mossie kom en pik die krummeltjies op... “Mamma, ons is honger. Kan ons asseblief ’n stukkie brood kry?” “Gaan slaap. Julle weet ons het nie nou genoeg geld nie en bly stil. Pappa slaap. Môre gaan hy op die plaas werk!” ’n Leë bottel brandewyn val in die slaapkamer om... Buite kom die mossies en pik die krummeltjies op... “ Mamma, ek het genoeg brood gehad. Wat moet ek met die korsies doen?” “Gooi hulle in die asblik, my kind” Die hongeres kom aansit by die asgate se maal. Iemand het die brood gebreek. So moet julle dan bid...Onse Vader wat in die hemele is, gee ons asseblief vandag ons daaglikse brood... Die mossies kom en pik die broodkrummeltjies op... Bennie

We say good buy to Jerald Muller one of our bush people who passed away. Anthony went there many times to take food fresh water and sit and listen to their stories. Jerry had cancer and I tried so hard to get him into a place where he could be cared for but nobody wanted to assist. May you rest in peace, may you have no more pain, feel no cold nor hunger, may you walk with Jesus in heaven. We will never know this man's real life story and why he ended up where he was but he lived and meant something to his companion Thelma who is now on her own. May he rest in Peace, Amen
