Aleluya Todos los das, doy gracias al Seor por estar vivo. No s cmo
podemos trabajar en las minas de oro en condiciones tan terribles. El
jefe nos golpea y nos da patadas y no se nos permite hablar, as que el
tiempo pasa muy lentamente. El trabajo es duro y las horas son largas.
Pero qu puedo hacer? Necesito dinero para mi familia.
Yesterday, the mine flooded again and my dear friend, Semelo, was killed. May
he rest in peace. I've developed a skim problem from the dirty water. The boss
gave us all rubber gumboots to protect our feet, but that's only because he
doesn't want to spend money on a drainage system. The boots don't help very
much, but at least we can hit them to send messages to each other instead of
talking. They also make very good musical instruments.
