Tears in My Hands

- By Stan Montsho

Sechaba’s journey is one of trial and tribulatio­ns. Determined to become the man his family never had, he becomes a true confirmati­on of the biblical verse that, “If you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, you will fear no evil, for you are with God; His rod and staff will comfort you.” He walks day and night into the unknown with only hope tucked tight in the pockets of his tattered trousers. Tears in my Hands is a hypnotic, gripping and rousing narrative that many South Africans – particular­ly those living in rural areas – can identify with. It is a story of loss, courage, survival, forbidden love, and perseveran­ce in the face of poverty and a ruthless system.
