CAPE TOWN. — Rachel Kolisi, the ex-wife of Springboks captain Siya Kolisi, took to Instagram to reveal that it has been “A solo and chicken soup Easter this year
Wearing sweatpants and a t-shirt, Rachel posted an image of herself with a bowl of chicken soup at home, while adding to the caption: “Not quite how I ever imagined it, being away from my kids and not feeling my best, but sometimes life slows you down in ways you don’t choose.”
“And in those moments, you’re left with yourself. I’m learning that being alone doesn’t have to mean being lonely.
‘‘That there’s something steady and grounding about sitting in your own company, even when it’s uncomfortable.
“Easter is a reminder that even in the hardest, most uncertain moments, there is still hope. Still renewal. Still purpose in the waiting. And our good God sees and knows it ALL.
“‘But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles . . .’Isaiah 40:31.I hope those of you who celebrate had the most beautiful day!”
