I simply love this woman, she is one of my role models. I always wanted to grow up to be the woman she is : Strong, Beautiful, Courageous, A strong feminist yet never afraid to be barefoot, pregnant, loving and down to earth. And she has such a deep spirit of Ubuntu, and is very active in South African issues of health and women's rights.

Did I mention that her voice is superb? And that most of my face paint designs come from her pictures? Hehehehe.

:-)Everything is looking bright, Everything's gonna be alright...because I'm adding Pep to my life!!!

I love the Pep jingle. What pep is this? is it the Pep store or another thing?

I like what u've written abt her though I never heard about her. Hope to get more of such women on here.
