@mali5ive: As we continue mourning and honoring our traditions, I would like to gently remind everyone that Chimbuya is a beautiful cultural practice that represents the special joking relationship between certain tribes. During times of grief, it is meant to bring comfort, unity, and a moment of lightness amid sorrow. It has always been about love, respect, and strengthening family bonds. However, let us remember that Chimbuya should never be forced. Holding people down, chasing them, or using aggression to pour powder or mealie meal on them goes against the spirit of the tradition. The practice should be done in good faith and with mutual respect. As we gather to mourn, especially during this sensitive time, let us uphold the dignity of our culture and the respect owed to the bereaved family. Traditions are most meaningful when they are practiced with wisdom, consideration, and respect for one another. Let’s honor our customs in a way that brings people together, not in a way that makes others uncomfortable or fearful. Respect the tradition. Respect the people. Respect the moment.
