To my late mother, Susan Mamoshoeshoe-Mothupi, your unrelenting spirit of resilience is in the presence of 60 million Azanians.
To my dearest wife, Joan Mothupi, you are a vessel of grace, a heart larger than life itself. Your kindness has known no boundary, and your love has flowed without condition upon me, and all my kids and the generations that sprang from us.
You are a rock upon which this house was built!
Unto my children, both those whom my loins begat and those whom the life entrusted unto me from the far reaches of the earth; unto my grandchildren and my great-grandchildren, I give thanks to God every time I think about you. In the hour when darkness compassed me round about, it was your voices that called me forth, your warm hands, and your faith.
So let it be written that love endures, and that the bond of family is a covenant stronger than despair.
"And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love…” - 1 Corinthians 13:13
To my future great-grandchildren, may UHURU finally be a reality in your lifetime.
Aluta Continua!
Papa
