Refilwe Modiselle took fans back in time on how she survived and fulfilled purpose in her skin.
On Instagram, the model explained that her mother told her a story of how her grandmother made sure Refilwe was loved.
“My grandmother said to my mother when I was brought home after my birth. ‘I never want to see this child in a dustbin’, and my mother honored that promise beyond words.”
Refilwe said that her upbringing taught her that “a child is a child, a human being with a soul – no matter how they come.”
“Many kids get rejected or are ostracized at birth because of a mere condition, not knowing how much of a blessing that, that child could be. Moral of the story is a child is a child, a human being with a soul – no matter how they come! Learning to love your child unconditionally is the greatest gift you could ever give to a soul that chose you as a parent before being conceived.
