Editor's note

Guess who’s back …

There is just something about this community

Yes that’s right Krugersdorp, I am back! I just simply could not stay away!

Being away from this community and everyone here at Caxton Joburg West for a little over six weeks was one of the hardest things I’ve done in my life.

I did a lot of soul-searching and finally realised that my true calling was to be the editor of the News. Fortunately for me, the position had not been filled and when the time came to bite the bullet, I followed my heart back to where it all started, almost 10 years ago.

It was really easy to decide to come back. There is just something about this community …

During the last six weeks, I found myself in uncharted territory. Although the new challenge was thrilling at first, it soon became evident that I wanted to go home.

Home was where my people were, home was where I made a difference and home was where I was the editor of the Krugersdorp News. It was that simple.

I don’t entirely regret uprooting myself because I learned a lot about me. I also learned that sometimes it takes going away to see where you really belong, even though the grass was a bit greener on the other side!

But I am putting it behind me, and turning over a new leaf.

With my new insight I am ready to take the News to the next level!

Please also allow me this opportunity to thank everyone here at Caxton Joburg West for the incredibly warm welcome back I received! Also to my family for their unconditional support! I could not have done it without you!

It sure is great to be home!

Until next week, take care Krugersdorp.
