Dotting Dad Cornet Mamabolo Shares His Perspective on Life

Skeem Saam actor Cornet Mamabolo wants to give back. As a philanthropist and successful actor. Cornet wants to show others the way to a happier, satisfied life, as he himself has achieved through several years of self reflection. Mamabolo says he looks at happiness as something that doesn’t actually come from external things, but as something we need to have within.

He took to Instagram recently with a pic of himself and his daughter to speak about the pressures society puts on people and challenged his fans to have a different outlook on life. He wrote :

‘But again I think society denies us to be ourselves. You see it distance us from ourselves. We chasing for the other. We lose touch with ourselves. We’re distanced from “Self” we want to uplift the other. We want to deny the other. Its always about you in relation to the other. It’s never about you in relation to you.”

“So because of forces from the universe. We want to liberate the other. We want to stay in “certain” house. Drive specific cars. Help others have access to basic needs. Possess certain portfolios in your work spaces or even own certain companies to empower others. We’re made to improve the other. Society lead & suggest to us to behave in a certain way to ur parents. To our elders. To relate in a certain way.”

“It also put measures to validate you how to behave to your loved ones. This constitution says to you “this” is wrong & “that” is right. I think we’re distanced from true humanity. I think us ashumans we are denied to be. We’re never given space to define ourselves from our own. Or even live on our own.”

“So would you still say you’re living ? Would you still say…PROUDLY… When you die that you lived to your full potential when all you have, that you’re is about the other & not you ? Maybe…it’s important that as much as it’s important to stand for the other, that you don’t forget about you. Again I’m just thinking.”
