Ilanga ikhanya ngokuqondile kwi-apartment enobuchule obuphezulu, indawo enobubanzi nolwazi, itafile yokubhala enomfanekiso ophucukileyo iyaba yindawo ebalulekileyo yokubona. Phambi kwetafile yokubhala, umphakathi ophakathi kweminyaka uhlala ethule, umbono owandileyo ungathi uyakwazi ukwenzela ukuqonda izinto ezisemva kwesigidi seefayile zeengqondo ezixhasiweyo phambi kwakhe. Isandla sakhe sokunene siphethe ipeni yokubhala, ihamba ngesantya ukwenza iirekhodi ezintsha kwiibrayibhile; isandla sakhe sokunene sithinta ngokuqinisa imbiza yekhofi eshushu, idibanisa ixesha lokuphumla nolwazi olutsha ngaphantsi kwetafile, ibhalela ubomi obuphakathi kweminyaka yethu.
Le ayiyiyo indawo yesayensi ethile, hayi itafile yokusebenza ethwele umthwalo kuwe; le yindawo yokwakha umphakathi ophakathi kweminyaka – “i-slash-generation” – eyenzela ukusilela ngokwakho. Nokuba emhlabeni kukhanya ngokuphangaleleyo, iibhuku ezigciniweyo zihlala zikhumbuza uhambo lokucola imiqathango yeengqondo. Namuhla, lo mfana ucinga kakuhle, akukhange kubekho kuphela ukujolisa kweengqondo zeengqondo, kodwa kukwakho nokwabelana indlela yokudala impilo enomoya opholileyo ngoncedo lwenjongo — uhamba phambili ukwenza umkhombandlela ophucukileyo wendlela yokongela.
Ubomi besimanjemanje ngaphantsi kwemiba emininzi
Uxolo, intoni i-slash-generation? Ngokubhekiselele kwiimeko zabantu ezikhoyo, i-slash-generation ayisayi kuba kuphela igama lokubiza abantu abasebenza kwimithombo yeemali, kodwa ikwazisa indlela yokuphumeza iindawo ezininzi, ukusondela kwiingqondo ezihlukahlukeneyo, ukwamkela ingqinisiso. Abaphandi bezengqondo bahlala belandela ukuba ukutshintsha kwezi ndawo kuya kuvumela abantu ukuba baphumeze ukusebenza kokwenyani, phantsi kwezimo ezahlukeneyo. Ngoko, umphakathi kufuneka uqwalasele indlela yokufunda izifundo ezahlukeneyo kunye nezinto ezikhoyo ebomini, ukuze ihlaziye phakathi kwemivuzo, iziphumo kunye nezinto ezithakazelelayo ezidingekayo ebomini. Impendulo ingaba ngezikhumbuzo ezilishumi kumfanekiso weebhuku zomphakathi zamafananiso.
Uhlolo lwenyani: ubuchule obuncinci kwiTafl
Uya kufikelela kwiTafile, imiphetho yeephepha ine-arching encinci, phakathi kweephepha ezisetyenziswa zobuchule zingabonakali “ubuchule bezeMali nezeMali,” “ubuhlakani bezeMali zeMinimalism,” “umbhalo oNqakrazo” nezinye. Iphrinta nganye inombolo yokubhalwa ehamba phambili, eyanikayo ukufumanisa ngezizathu zokugcina, nezintsha zokufezekisa, ezinye ziqulethe indlela yokuphila nobuchule. Iifolda zokulawula ziquka iindlela ezahlukeneyo zokuhlola: uphawu lwezicwangciso, umjikelo wombhoxo, ubalo lweemotivations zompheki.
Ngase side lweTafile, iiphosa zeempawu ezahlukeneyo ziya kuqhubela ngokuqinileyo, iimbiza ezimhlophe, zihlala zikhumbuza amava eqiniso acoma okhaliphileyo. Umfana uthathe umzuzu, ekhange bonke ubukrelekrele, uhlola iindawo ezahlukeneyo ukuze ukhulise inzala efanelekileyo — ufuna ukunceda bonke abavakalisi ukuba babonise umoya ophotlweyo, ube uphucula “ukunceda” ukwenza kube “ukuphucula umgangatho wobomi.” Oku akuphumli kwiimeko ezithile, kodwa ukusebenzisa iinguqu zeengqondo ukwenza ukuba yonke ingeniso ibalulekileyo.
Umgungundlovu wokugcina nemiphumo yokufundisa
Okuthakazelisayo, lo msebenzi wokugcina akuphosanga kuphela abafundi abaninzi, kodwa ikakhulu ikwiimeko ezingaphezulu, njalo igubungela izigaba ezahlukeneyo zomphakathi. Umphakathi ophakathi kweminyaka uhlanganisa umphandi wezengqondo nezibhengezo ezizodwa, uzama ukukhangela izimpendulo zokugcina; umphakathi ophakathi kweminyaka unika iimpendulo ezickwayo. Umzekelo:
1. Ukunqanda iziphumo ezidityanisiweyo
Ibhuku ibonisa ukuba abantu bahlala behamba ngezinto ezikwi-akhawunti, umphakathi unikezela umyalezo: njengo bahlala beziphene ngalo mzuzu, bachaphazela ezinye izinto ngokukhawuleza, bungumzuzu wokuvala imoya phantsi komphakathi.
2. Umgca umjikelo wezizathu nezithuthi zinkulu
Iifayile zigqiba ukuba “ukukhangela umntu ofanelekileyo kuya kubala umsebenzisi.” Umfana uthathe umgomo wokukhangela: ukunceda ukusondeza imigqa yesikhumbuzo ngokuhlwegenza iinyanga zansuku zonke ezihamba phambili, zifaka umisela phezulu, ngosuku oluqhelekileyo.
3. Iikhosi zokunceda nokuphucula
Uphando lubalulekile, abantu bahlala becoca kwiifestile zihlala zikhumbuza: umphakathi ungathanda ukunceda umphakathi, ngamnye ohlangula amava aphelileyo, phawula kwiindawo eziqulelekileyo, ukuze uhamba ngokuzikhethela.
4. Iindlela ezisemgangathweni
Ngokufundisa “ukukhangela kwemali” umphakathi uthanda ukungabhalisi phantsi – “ukukhumbuza umoya oncinci” – ukusondela kumumishun yokuxhaswa yingqondo phantsi komxholo; zehlohlisa amava kumacala eengqondo azayo.
Uhlalutyo oluncedisa: umngeni obalulekileyo kwiTafile yezeMali
Phakathi kwezi zinto zezeMali, umfana akazami ukuba ugcwala koku, uzama ukwisibopho sezi ndawo, edeseka iikhosi ezilungileyo, udibanisa “ukuziphatha,” “ukuziphatha,” “ukuphila ngongxamiseko” ukugqiba umgomo wokuqala. Umphakathi ophakathi kweminyaka uthembisa ukubuyisela umoya wobomi. Ngaphantsi kwezithathazole, umphakathi uyakubona ubomi bukhumbuza iiphosa ezilungileyo, uthathe umngeni wakhe, uzama ukukhumbuza indlela yokuhla umgca.
Ukwazi izinto ezikhoyo, yena ubana othembisayo ukuthembela kwiingcebiso ezahlukeneyo, uphumeze zonke izimvo, futhi ungabonakali impungushe. Ngoku, kumgaqo, le mithi yempembelelo iyavuma. Ucingo olunobuchule lugubungela esona sibhakabhaka.
Ngokuthula, umphakathi wezeMali sowenza emva kwesi sikhumbuso, akazenzanga ukuxhaswa kwiingqubo zezimali. Umphakathi uyakhe njengo umphakathi ophakathi kweminyaka; ngaphezu komxholo ukwandisa phezulu, uyancedisela ubomi beenzuzo zezeMali. Kule ngcaciso, izikhumbuzo zendawo zityhila umphakathi ophakathi kweminyaka, ibonisa iindlela ezahlukeneyo ezinxulumene napphu.
Uhlanga lweemanga ngoMvula, umgubho wesi sikhumbuzo uyoshicilela umkhondo osemzimbeni weengcebiso eziphathekayo, ubi profa ngoSuku, ucingo lwezobuchule eluntwini umtya, uyayoza imfundo yomphakathi opheleleyo. Umphakathi uyacaca, uyakubona uyakubabazeka; uyakuba nelakhe, uthelisa umphakathi ophezulu ngakumbi kule mfuza yokungqubana.
