A South African shared a story about a farm fire that is inspiring the nation! It’s stories like these that you won’t see on main stream media…
Lentswe Mokgatle shared a story after a farm fire that has started trending on social media. He tweeted about how neighbours came to the rescue after the fire broke out.
“My farm’s been on fire tonight. I don’t know who started the fire but, as things happen out here, my neighbours came rushing in in their bakkies and helped the fire brigade to douse it before it caused greater damage. Guess what, they are all Afrikaners.”
The post has been shared thousands of times and gathered hundreds of comments from South Africans who were inspired by the tweet.
Mvuzo Ntontela posted: “His point is there is kindness to be found in every race, it just needs to be embraced to grow.”
Hills said: “You have just given me HOPE again in humanity. What a beautiful heartfelt message. I wish I can bottle each tweet & post it every time a racists raises their heads. Many blessings to you & your family hope there wasn’t too much damage.”
Noz added: “Not all people are the same, I have experienced kindness from all races. Bravo to your neighbours.”
Mpho commented: “I believe our main mission as South Africans should be the future and legacy we’re leaving behind for our children, grandchildren & great-grandchildren and how we ALL can work together to at least leave them a great country as their inheritance; despite our prejudices or history.”
Bishop Van Radebe replied: “It’s how things should be… My mentor in farming is Afrikaaner and very good one… Race should not divide us at all.”
Kevin responded: “I farmed for years. It is hard!! No farmer wants to see another farmer battle. There is a brotherhood amongst farmers that town people don’t fully understand.”
It’s important to share stories like these, because they show a side of South Africa that many don’t get to see everyday. But the reality is that there are so many amazing South Africans and even more incredible South African stories happening everyday!
