Reflections

Lady in our reflective dress

We see her every day and yet miss her completely. You can see yourself in her. Is she who she appears to be, or is her clothing her shield? Today, you may see your own shield in her. Every preconceived picture and perception we have of her becomes a cloak with which we wrap ourselves. Look! See yourself.


Dame in ons weerkaatsende klere

Ons sien haar elke dag, maar het haar nog nie raakgesien nie. Jy kan jouself in haar sien. Is sy wie sy hier voorkom of is haar klere bloot haar skild? Vandag kan jy ook jou eie skild in haar sien. Elke vooropgestelde prentjie en persepsie wat ons van haar het word nou die mantel waarin jy jouself toemaak. Kyk! Sien jouself.


Inenekazi elinelokhwe esiyiqwalseleyo

Simbona yonke imihla kodwa siyamphosa. Ungazibona kuye. Ingaba ungulo mntu abonakala enguye okanye ingaba impahla yakhe ilikhakha lakhe? Usenokubona ikhakha lakho kuye, namhlanje. Wonke umfanekiso esinawo ngaye nendlela esimbona ngayo iba sisambatho esizambathisa ngaso. Jonga! Zibonele.
