I went to Old Mutual yesterday to see some clients. When I walked through the reception area of the Investment department, I noticed a painting on the wall, and it invoked in me the feeling I felt the first time I saw it. Overwhelming emotions swelling in my eyes, my head, my heart, my body. Knocking at my eyes, my head, my heart my body. Wanting to flow out my eyes, my head, my heart, my body. It makes me proud to be an African. It invokes the spirits of my ancestors, and makes me want to be part of this life. It is the art work of an immensely talented South African artist called Velaphi Mzimba.

and "Velaphi" means "Where do you live", or "Where do you come from?" Quite ironic,
