"Freedom in this lifetime. Peace and tolerance amongst. All ways of life and religions guide us towards the light. Should I wake up an orthodox Jew tomorrow or in a hijaab. It's also ok. Camagu kuni nonke... Amen kulondawo."

Peeps defend Brenda

Not everyone got offended by Brenda's sentiments. One person called out the mean comments and said Brenda has the right to choose whatever religion she wants.

"Why are people getting worked up based on HER experience and something she specifically said 'is just not for me' she is talking about her, not you."

@XhantilomziSch1 said:

"Congratulations my sister. Only God knows where we belong, if he meant for you to be one of healers through ubungoma trust that you would have stayed but seems he had another plan for you. Welcome to parenthood."
