Time:

Today, my heart is heavy. The storm has ruined everything. Our fields, which were so full of hope, are now destroyed. I watched helplessly as the hailstones crashed down on my crops, wiping out all the hard work we put into the land. How will we survive this? I’ve never felt so desperate, but I know there must be a way out. Tomorrow, I’ll write a letter to God, asking for His help. He is our only hope in this difficult time.

God, help me.

Dear Diary,

I received an answer today! God has heard my prayers. When I went to the post office, there was an envelope with money inside. I felt grateful, but also puzzled—it wasn’t the full amount I asked for. I’m sure the post office employees took the rest of it. But I won’t lose faith. God has given me hope again, and with this money, I’ll begin to rebuild. I’ll write to Him again, thanking Him, and hoping the dishonest people will change their ways.

Dear Diary, 

Today, I’m both astonished and a little disheartened. Lencho’s second letter arrived, and instead of thanking God, he accused us of stealing some of the money! I can’t believe it. We went out of our way to collect the money to help him, and this is what he thinks? I suppose his faith in God is so strong that he can’t imagine receiving less than he asked for. While it hurts to be misunderstood, I’m still glad we helped. His unwavering faith is something rare.

Dear Diary, 

Tomorrow is a historic day—the day I will be sworn in as the first black president of South Africa. As I sit here tonight, I can’t help but reflect on the long journey that brought us here. The years in prison, the countless sacrifices, and the unwavering hope for freedom and equality are all flashing before my eyes. I think of all the people who fought alongside me, some who aren’t here to witness this moment. Tomorrow represents not just my victory, but the victory of an entire nation.

Time:

Dear Diary,

Today, as I reflect on the true meaning of freedom, I realize it is not just the ability to live without chains but the right to dignity and equality for all. My long years in prison taught me that freedom is not only for oneself, but for every man, woman, and child. Until every person can live with justice and respect, true freedom remains out of reach. Freedom is not just breaking physical chains, but liberating ourselves from hatred and prejudice.

Dear Diary, 

What an incredible day it has been! I finally made my first flight! For so long, I stood on the edge of the ledge, terrified to take that leap.

At first, I thought I would crash, but suddenly, my wings stretched out, and I felt the wind lift me. I was flying! The sea stretched below me, the sky felt endless, and I soared through the air. The freedom and joy I felt were beyond words. Now, I can’t wait to fly again. I realize now that fear was holding me back, but I’m ready for new adventures!

Suddenly, a black aeroplane appeared out of nowhere. The pilot inside waved at me, leading the way through the storm. I followed him closely until I safely landed at the airport. Strangely, when I asked the control tower about the other plane, they said there was no other aircraft. I still wonder who saved me!

Dear Kitty,  

Mr. Keesing gave me another extra homework today! He says I talk too much in class. This time, I had to write an essay on "Quack, Quack, Quack, Said Mistress Chatterbox." I decided to have fun with it and wrote about a family of ducks who couldn’t stop quacking. I think he enjoyed it because he laughed when he read it. It seems like my little joke finally worked, and maybe now he won’t mind my chatting as much. Let’s hope!

Dear Kitty, 

Mr. Keesing really doesn’t like how much I talk! He gave me another essay, “An Incorrigible Chatterbox.” Instead of being upset, I decided to take it lightly. I wrote a humorous essay, showing him that talking isn’t so bad. Maybe now he’ll see that it’s just part of who I am, and that I can still focus on my work. I’m learning that humor can sometimes be the best way to handle tough situations!

Dear Diary, 

Today, I visited a traditional bakery in Goa, and it was such a wonderful experience! The aroma of freshly baked bread filled the air as I watched the baker use an ancient wood-fired oven.

It reminded me of the rich history and culture of Goa. I’m so glad I had the chance to see this tradition in action!

I even got to taste freshly brewed Assam tea, which had a rich, strong flavour unlike anything I’ve had before. The serenity and calm of the estates, combined with the refreshing aroma of tea, made me feel so peaceful and connected to nature. It was a perfect day!
