About "Live as you are"
Only 2 Unsigned prints available.
This piece saying 'Come children come - the bus is ready' - seems to speak directly about Belinda's current project and the vehicle required to transport the people so as to be able to visit other bushman communities in Botswana & Namibia. It also encourages and inspires the people to pick themselves up and get on the vehicle that is available ( metaphoric vehicle of life) and to succeed in their path. To know God and accept and enjoy his goodness and just be who they are - no pretentions or superficiality. Everyone must live as they are and be proud.
Close-up of writing available. Translated:"Live as you are.
God's light shines brightly.
Come children come, the bus is ready.
God is good and fair
and come as you are and thats it.
I come God, I come"
'en klaar' - literally 'and finished' means 'and thats it' or 'and thats all you can say' - but is much more punchy in Afrikaans!
