1.1 introduction
Mirror is a piece of special flat glass that reflects images, so that you can see yourself when you look
on it. The mirror contain more information in your life the things you been through them, the future
and the things that you experiment. By looking in the picture of the cat watching in the mirror and
there is a reflection of the lion. In mind it comes that in others I am small but deep inside I am
stronger than anyone around me. The strength that I have I got them by valuing myself and value
others near me in my country.
2.1 My relationship with myself

My relationship is based on loyalty I trust myself even if do a certain activity I able to cope under
pressure. I do not undermine myself I have high level of confident. The time I get I usual stay alone in
my room experiencing many things that are happening in my life and also dangerous to stay alone
j.cacioppo (2017:1) .

I always tell myself that being alone help too much to gain focus on the good things that will reward
me with good achievements in life. By the time I look at that mirror the main aim is to ask myself who
I am what do I need in my life to succeed.

2.2 My relationship with others

2.2.1 Family

I live with my family they intervene more in my life because they are the people that I live with if they
see that there is nothing good with me they speak with me openly. As a last born to them i respect
them the way they give me support. Although there is no family that do not have it matters.

2.2.2 Peers

Friends are people that won’t give they any trust because if you can think of them in the mirror they
reflects with their lies and betrayal I remember in 2012 I was doing grade10 at the secondary school
me and my friends we use to not attending classes , than that year we failed and repeated that grade ,
they all passed in 2013 I failed, and repeated the grade twice than in 2014 I passed, the motivation I
got is that when you are looking at the mirror there is more you can see but people are unable to see
what do you have in your reflection.

2.2.3. Study mates

As a university of South Africa student I have study mates who generally some of them they speak
different languages for example Xhosa and English .it is nice to learn their languages because I am
Zulu person speaking because they come from different cultural background.
2.3 Environment

The environment that I am situated with is good because I can say there is a university near me , I am
using their library for studying. The biggest problem is the crime this year this year the thief break into
my window at night I was asleep her took my new cellphone but hopefully I am alive he did not do
something wrong to me but emotionally I was hurt, but as I have mentioned that I am strong I able to
accept everything that comes after me. The moment of looking yourself in the mirror gives you a
motivation in anything that comes to you.

3. South Africa’s Political dispensation

It did not changed my identity because now in politics it is easy for the country to change the
president or the government ruling the country by voting. But voting is also a problem because all the
national parties they offer what they do not do. If you can take a look at the South African ruling party
they do not inspire the youth to focus on education, all they talk about every day is crime. I can also
say that it changed my identity because our culture and languages are being recognized. The late
former president Nelson Mandela gave us a better life to believe in our self we have our rights that
guide us. We are still demanding a better service deliveries in any elected president.
Conclusion
Being a human being you need to value others as you do into yourself. People may try to bring you
down you need to be stronger never show them what are your dreams hide them until they see them
no one is wishing for anyone a better future. I hope one day our political parties that we have can be
loyal to us one day , we need to gather and fight our life battles.
