Simplicity and humility spawn greatness

- From: DHAYALAN MOODLEY

“THE week in words” compiled by Lindsay Slogrove made excellent reading, but what was outstandin­g was Ixopo wholesaler Suleman Bux who helped Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo to pursue his legal studies by donating groceries to his family while studying.

This was very heart-warming, inspiring and, most importantl­y, Mr Bux’s approach and attitude is one of simplicity and humility to life.

This to me is a true man of God. The selflessne­ss and generosity displayed must really be emulated by us all.

Mr Bux is a true flag bearer for the country with regards to race relations.

Thank you sir, take a bow – your contributi­on to society is placed in good stead.

I love the saying “The hands that serve are holier than the lips that pray”.
