IN times of great challenge, history calls on ordinary people to become extraordinary. Zimbabwe is going through a difficult season economically, politically and socially. But from this dust of adversity, heroes and legacies are forged. This is not a time to be silent. It is a time to remember that you have a voice, a conscience and a responsibility. You were not born to be silent when your people are in pain. You are the stone, a symbol of strength, courage and permanence.
Leaving a legacy means living a life that echoes beyond your years. It is not about wealth, fame or titles, it is about the difference you make in the lives of others. It is about being remembered as someone who stood firm when others bent, someone who spoke when silence was easier. When the country is bleeding, when hope is hard to find, that is when your voice matters the most.
Zimbabwe needs bold men and women who can rise above fear. Speaking out against injustice is not easy, especially when the cost is high. But every great movement in history was led by people who risked everything because they believed in something bigger than themselves. Your voice may seem small, but together, many small voices become thunderous. Together, we become unshakable.
To stand up for what is right is not to fight blindly; it is to stand on principle, to demand transparency, to uphold the truth. It is refusing to normalise corruption, refusing to remain comfortable while others suffer. It is pushing for education, justice, opportunity and dignity for every Zimbabwean.
The stone does not waver in the storm; it endures and so must you. Be the one who reminds the world that Zimbabwe is above its struggles, it is a land of resilience, talent and untapped potential. Be the one who lifts others when they are weary. Be the one who leaves footprints of justice, love and courage.
Your legacy begins with one step: Speak, act, stand. The future is watching. Will it find you brave? Will it find you faithful? Will it find you standing firm like a stone? Let it be said that when Zimbabwe cried out, you answered. You had a voice and you used it. You stood up and you changed the world.
Use your voice to be part of Zimbabwe’s success, wherever you are!!!
