“Today was a bit of a difficult day for me…Today is my father’s birthday. I keep telling myself to smile. He would be proud, not only of me but my siblings as well. We all thriving and making him proud. God is carrying us” – she wrote on Instagram.
Jessica Nkosi considers herself blessed to have had Jabu Nkosi as her father. The Isibaya actress went on to mention her siblings and also wished her older sister a peaceful rest.
She further added: “We are so blessed to have had the opportunity to call him dad. Myself, sis Nomusa, Swazi, Junior and Sphelele are so blessed…(RIP to my beautiful older sister Sis Nomusa). I must continue to make him proud. Go for my dreams and everything I believe in. And in instances where I feel like I’ve lost myself or lost sight of my vision in life, to never give in, but to find myself again, to reinvent myself to get up and dominate, to not dim my light just to make the world comfortable……. I must be authentically me… I must shine, like I was born to! (sic)”
Even though Nkosi misses her father terribly, she is comforted by the way her late father raised her.
“My dad raised me to be strong powerful confident and own it, own who I am be proud of who I am. To put God first and always be praying, about EVERYTHING. I am the living word…Day by day I’m learning to walk in his teachings” – Jessica Nkosi wrote.
