  1. rest in peace washington, betrayed by your own wife. betrayed by your fellow zimbabwe woman
    many zimbabwe woman in diaspora dont do dirty. only a few for the love of pleasure, money and good living betray their fellow zimbabwe men. And some men let down their women.
    Trust has gone through the window, we are now a society of anything happens. Mothers your a destroying your own children. Fathers you are destroying your own families.
    We are now a country of people who sell out our morals for nothing but fun. We dont have pride in ourselves but envy other nations.
    Lets clean our hearts from the evil we do against each other. We are destroying our society, it starts with a little thought to be dishonest.
    Many people living with scarrs caused by selfishness and rotten behaviour, corrupt minds a problem in our country.
    We got land, we got independence, ALL this will go to waste, true freedom is power to make constructive choices. We using our freedom to enslave ourselves to greed, adultery and selfishness. Many people live with attitude of as long as i am happy. Many say its ok as long as i feel happy. We have stopped looking ahead and easily jump to whatever looks exciting.
    We have destroyed families, our country and destroyed each other through selfishness and not valuing who we are. We have prefered to become slaves to other nations and everyone is stressed and troubled by our failure to keep Zimbabwe as who we are and what we can die for. Other people died for our freedom but we sell ourselves cheap all over the world. We easily turn against each other without realising. We belong to each other, we should be proud to be Zimbabwe, unless we unite, unless we agree, unless we are proud of who we are, we will never have lasting success. Look at the Chinese, look at Indians, their wealth is because they trust their religion, tradition and culture. They are united in this pride. WHEN ARE WE GOING TO UNITE AS ZIMBABWEANS wherever we are. Lets teach our children to be proud of who they are. Zimbabwe is a great society. Look after another Zimbawean. We build our country by being trustworthy to each other. May we learn to make our families better through honest, trust, loyalty, faithfulness and valuing ourselves as too precious to be used by other nations who seem better. We are better than them and we wont see this if we are short term thinkers.
    Those in churches, in political office you must set a good example. We have become a nation of dishonest people, sell outs against each other.
    Where did our dignity go. Young zimbabwe girls, zimbabwe father
