I dont know how to start this, but I must admit that something is not just right. Why? am yet to get the answer and if there is any one out there please help me out.This morning i saw a young man and lady quarreling, i think they even fought! They were both drunk, well I didnt get close to them but from the looks on their faces they were drunk and they even staggered as they kept throwing abuses on each other. Just imagine these are our future leaders, they are people to build our country, they are the youth evey country would be proud of, but please dont tell me that these are the people the world is preparing for because if they are then I wouldnt want to imagine what kind of citens we shall have.
Sincerely, why would ayoung lady or man do this to him or herself,should anyone treat his body the way he feels like? I felt pity for these young people and thats when i realised that its true that we make the choices or decisions that shape us. I dont think I can decide to drink my self to the extent of being stupid.
Now, what do you people out there think should the youth do anything they feel like even though it will affect their health, future, or even relationships? Share with me what you think and by the way I have been thinking of writing articles about children who have been molested, raped, and even sold off to slavery and I want to share your stories with the whole world. If you know any one out there please let them know they can send me mail on balago021@gmail.com and they dont need to leave their identity,this will be confindential or else they can leave their stories on this blog. This will be aseries that will run on this blog i believe through this we shall be able to reach out to the victims and encourange them in anyway possible.
stay blessed.

STREET ADVERTS (FLYERS), HOW TRUTHFUL ARE THEY?
Hi every body out there, been long since I last blogged. Did I miss my blog? ofcourse i did and am glad I have been able to find some time to blog about something that has been on my mind for aperiod of time.On my way to work I often pass by some adverts on poles (let me say flyers),on street walls and even in places I dont expect them to be.It seems there is a craziness of Ugandans wanting to practice everything that happens on this globe what I mean is, these adverts talks of breast firming and enlargement- this I understand but tell me what about the manhood enlargement adverts? I normally ask my self and even imagine how this will be done. Will the victims be given an oral drug say viagra and i hope the manhood that is being talked of here is the actual one or is there something else and am kind of lost? Recently I saw another one talking about how to find your loved one and if I may ask, is it that easy to find your better half and in case you met the person, would anyone straight away fall in love? I find this all crazy. Well I dont know what you people out there think. I find the manhood enlargement thing so impossible and if its really possible how is it done? I need some clarification on this.
Breast firming and enlargement yes, i have heard of it but in Uganda am doubtful.By the way,is this done by medical proffesionals or is it done traditionally? And thinking twice, is this legalised in the country and which hospitals if any do practice this and if they do it then they would better advertise as a recognised hospital providing the service. Otherwise am forced to believe these guys making these adverts are conmen, just the standard of their adverts is too poor for one to believe they can provide the service, I think anyone who is being convinced by these adverts should think twice and be thoroughly sure of the service that they provide.
take care
lots of love.

what is work?
“Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.”-Thomas Alva Edison
Work is the horizontal flow of value from a supplier to a consumer! From this little definition of work, we can deduce that in order for what you are doing to be called work, there needs to be a transfer of value from you to someone else. Kindly note also that whether or not it’s for profit or for cash is omitted. This is because work does not become work only when it is rewarded, work is work as long as value is transfered. Like I usually say, experience is experience because you did it, not because you were paid for it. In the light of this definition, are you working? Who are you really working for? What value are you supplying? Look critically at the “work” you do, and be brutally honest with yourself, are you working?
Work is as old as man! To work or not to work is not an option, the dilligent person works, and the lazy one is given to forced labour. There is no option to work, there is only an option to who chooses the work for you -yourself or circumstances. There is an alternative to hard work though, it’s hard life!
I personally marvel when I see able bodied graduates boldly confessing to haven been jobless for years! Many are actively unemployed, actively doing what? Actively searching for jobs? By the definition of work, a good number of employed people are not working, but that doesn’t distress me half as much as the thousands of graduates we have on the streets unemployed by the big companies, and sadly unemployed by themselves. Tell me, if you can’t employ yourself, why should anybody else employ you? I think it’s time we tell ourselves the truth, pick ourselves up and apply ourselves. If they don’t give you work, give yourself. Work is the horizontal flow of value from a supplier to a consumer. Think about it, what value can you add, and how can you make that addition your work?
If you desire to work, don’t wait till someone calls you from the interviews you have done? Don’t place your life in the hands of “if it happens?”. More often than not, the people that get offered great work are people that already have experience in one form or the other adding that type of value. Look inwards and discover the work that you can start today, and if you truely want to work, here are some guidelines to get you started.
1. What you do today is what will be called experience tomorrow. Someone once said that good judgement comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgement :). It is also said that experience is what you get just after you needed it. Don’t just sit at home and wait for the opportunity to come, get yourself busy. You can’t sit in the premises and claim to be standing on some promises. Start supplying or adding the kind of value you want to add.
“Don’t waste life in doubts and fears; spend yourself on the work before you, well assured that the right performance of this hour’s duties will be the best preparation for the hours and ages that will follow it.”-Ralph Waldo Emerson
2. There is no one shoe size that fits all. There is no “one way” that gets to the destination called success. You don’t have to have worked for a big company before you succeed in life. The world is full of examples of people who simply started. Who says it’s better to have corporate experience? Who says you must do, 5, 10, or 25yrs before you start your life’s work? There are no hard and fast rules. If you don’t have work today. Simply start something. Let the call to come and start work in a company be a welcome distraction if you like, but make up your mind that the work you will start to do will help you define standards of what to choose and what not to choose. Don’t just wait for the perfect time, move today. In the words of Pablo Picaso the talented artist, “Inspiration exists, but it must meet you working”. In other words, to be inspired, you need to get busy first.
“Dictionary is the only place that success comes before work. Hard work is the price we must pay for success. I think you can accomplish anything if you’re willing to pay the price.”-Vince Lombardi
3. Grow deaf! Yeah, you read that right. Don’t go deaf, grow deaf… let it happen gradually:) You’ll hear all sorts of things, like “when will you go out and get a job?”, “I hope you don’t think you have found work?” and more. Don’t you worry, these are the normal chats of concerned fellows. They do it out of love, and no ill feelings, you on the other hand must expect it and be undeterred. At the end all the criticisms will turn to applauds. Stubborness has two sides you know, when stubborness has rewards it’s called perseverance and strong will, when it doesn’t it’s called stiffneckedness. Look for value to add and add it. If you do more than you are paid to do, you’ll soon get paid more than you do. Take yourself out of the crowd of timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat from not having tried.
“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”-Theodore Roosevelt

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!
Hi dears, this week has been a blessed one with a fathers day there in and I just realised that in Africa we are waking up to recognition that fathers need to appreciated too.Imagine I didn't know it not till I heard over the Radio that it was fathers day...I somehow felt guilty you know,for not congratulating my uncles on the paternal side (As in Africa all your fathers brothers are in away your fathers).But as we are still in the fathers week, allow me say Happy fathers day to all my dads these includes my spiritual dad( my pastor) and all my dear uncles,you watched me grow up and are stilL doing so... Thanks.
We all love our fathers but one thing troubles me, there are some dads who end up behaving like beasts, am writing about those that are merciless, who rape their daughters and am told some even deliberatly sale their daughters off to men they dont love just to get rich.Could it be that they were not meant to be fathers but just found themselves as fathers?
Am not amused by such acts but does anyone know why someone would do to his own daughter? I magine his own blood and flesh? Could there be some element of a beast in such a person? If there is anyone out there who could be knowing why some people behave or are forced to act this way, please let me know.Am puzzled alot because I just can't imagine it.
None the less, there are fathers who have always been there for their children especially the daughters, such are fathers whose flames will forever keep burning, forever will they be in the momories of their daughters and to them, I only ask the almighty to keep you going strong and bless you abundantly.Thank you daddies and salute to you all!

SIX MORE MONTHS TO THE END OF THE YEAR...
Hi, its long since I last bloged and alot has happened, all this while I have been reading other blogs and believe me in away I have been inspired.I have discovered that there is alot to learn from every one and to all my favourite blogers, thank you! There are those days when you feel the you dont belong to the world and are in your own world seemingly lost but when I read through all those blogs I was brought back to reality and consented that i wasn't lost afterall.
One of my favourite bloger, Bishop TD jakes was apparently ill somehow and is just recovering from a surgery, am very glad Bishop you are recovering and all praise goes back to God. I miss postings on your blog but I believe you will soon get back to your feet and set the ball rolling once more.People Bishop's blog is a must read not only is there inspiration, there is aspecial way he brings out what he writes and if you have not been reading it you missing please check it out on www.tdjakes.com.
Looking through the year, we are already half way down the road and many people made resolutions personally I didnt but I wonder how far they have gone.I have so far had some good achievements, am glad about it and am still pushing on. This has made me realise that at times resolutions don't really work as long as am focused I believe I can do even more.

WOMEN... WHO WE TRUELY ARE
There so many fascinating things about women, I have read and even heard of so many stories about women that at times i have to admit that women are complex beings but then all humans to me are complex and when it comes to relationships, both sexes will say they don't understand each other and no one is to blame after all we are all unique. here are some facts about women so guys watch out...
“A man who is strong spiritually, sure of his purpose, and actively working towards the fulfillment of his destiny is the sexiest man on earth to a woman”.
• Because women view men as knights in shining armor, women expect men to know some things we do not know. The savvy man, who is well rounded, with knowledge on various subjects, is exciting to a woman. Therefore be well read, if not experienced.
• A woman who is fruitful in her endeavors and successful in her business is an asset to a man. Be secure enough to celebrate her accomplishments because you will also reap from them as her partner.
• Check the temperament of the woman to whom you are attracted. Is it all about her, or does she care about other people? This is a major sign of how your life together will play out.
• A woman looks to a man for stability. Inconsistency is frightening to her and causes her to question your intentions towards her.
• Women were created for relationship. Their hearts settle this area quickly when they feel they have met the right man. Be clear in your intentions so that there is no confusion on the status of your relationship.
• God created the woman to be a helper to a man. The woman in your life should make you a better man.
• A woman is a complex being. Take the time necessary to allow the layers of her to unfold before drawing conclusions.
• Women are disappointed when men who claim to have a relationship with God compromise their stand on purity.
• EVERY woman wants a man to woo her, pursue her, and win her hand. It speaks volumes about her value in his eyes.
Michelle McKinney Hammond in her book “Finding the Right Woman For You” has this to say about a woman
• A woman can make or break a man, therefore, not just any woman will do! Make sure she adds to your life and does not subtract from your quality of living.
• The enemy will use a woman to distract you from your purpose and rob you of your destiny. Check yourself and your productivity when involved with the woman in your life.
• If a woman begins leading you in the relationship, she will never stop. The way to earn her respect is to take the lead and keep it.
• Be clear on who you are and what your purpose is. Stick to your program unless God says differently. The woman for you will be a team player and know you are her assignment, and vice versa.
• A woman will follow where you lead her. Plan your steps carefully.
• Women are looking not only for husbands; they are also looking for fathers for their children. Do not become a lover until you are a husband.
• Do not settle for an okay relationship just to pass the time away. When a woman gives herself to you-heart, mind and body, she expects a commitment from you. She will feel betrayed if she finds out you led her on.
• The woman who will add blessing to your life will not deliberately lure you down the path of sexual sin.
• A woman will trust and respect you more if you take the lead in maintaining purity in your relationship with her.
• Women are attracted to men who have a sense of self and direction for their lives.
Need i say more ?...I don't think so.You have read it for your selves and no more excuses.
Thats all for now ...CIAO!

EVIL BENEATH OUR FEET
Got this sad but rather interesting story from Victoria's blog. Most of you must have read or heard about it,I normally ask my self what the world is getting to, now with all this happening what more should we expect?
The whole story is so annoying, disgusting and I don't wish death for anyone but am forced to wish so for for this HEARTLESS man. Truely, why would anyone do this to his daughter? I hope something serious will be done to him.
Not all of us can think of the evil that lies beneath our feet. Imagine being imprisoned
For 24years in a Dungeon beneath your house with your mother upstairs living a life of misery that she has lost her daughter and your father knowing fully well you live in the dungeon beneath the floors of the house.
Such is the story of Elizabeth Fritzl who lived in the Dungeon in Austria with three of her children aged 18, 19 and five, none of whom had ever seen sunlight or been to school.
This horror only ended when her 19yrs old daughter Kerstin was admitted to hospital after falling seriously ill that her Evil Dad or oh sorry!!! Granddad had no option but to take her to hospital and the letter about the horror she lived with was found in her pocket by the medical staff and the police were then called.
Upon investigation the Elizabeth and her two other kids were found in the Dungeon. Her father was promptly arrested and is currently in jail.
Elizabeth disappeared in 1984. Her father Josef Fritzl reportedly claimed she had gone into hiding and the foolish police of cause concluded she had joined a religious sect and decided not to look for her. Thus began her journey of pain and horror in the hands of her father for 24yrs.
She gave birth to seven children but one died on the third day and was supposedly burned by Mr Fritzl. Three of the children lived with their grand parents and went to school but the births of others were never registered. He managed to keep his daughter’s imprisonment from his wife.
Thank God for the letter Elizabeth wrote and left in her daughter’s pocket before she was taken to the hospital no one would have known this evil happened until maybe after Mr Fritzl death.
I personally feel this man needs to die for the horror he leashed on his daughter, he started raping her at age 11yrs then imprisoned her and forced his daughter to have 7kids for him??? Can you imagine that shit?
Now tell me what is he to the kids? A dad? A Granddad? Or EVIL.
Just as i mentioned above, he deserves to die or what do you think?
For pictures on this horror story, the dungeon a father forced his child to live for 24yrs and where he had sex and raped her countless times thus resulting to her having seven children of INCEST for him visit the below link..

Hello there, last evening I bumped on to my old school mate and she had all grown, I couldn't even identify her but thank God she did recognise me, you know that exitement one gets when you meet an old school mate, we straight away looked for a restaurant, helped our selves to some juice and well talked about what we were both doing, asked about our fellow school mates as well... and brought up all the funny things that took place while at school.I must say this former school mate of mine was really anotorious girl back then at school and whenever there was agroup of students going for apunishment she wouldn't miss out and believe me I didn't want her for a friend, but last evening I discoverd that we as human beings needed each other.I found out why and these are the reasons;We need each other...In times of private pain,of fear and stress.
We need each other...to share our joys, our times of happiness;
We need each other...to hold on and be strong, and encourage when things are going wrong;
We need each other...to keep the faith and love,and remind each other of all the things we're dreaming of;We need each other... now and always.
We are now good friends, actually I didnt like her behaviour then.
The above also brings to my mind the stigma affecting the HIV positive people in our societies, normally such people are discriminated in all aspects which is wrong. I got to know of a young lady who contracted the dreaded disease when she was helping nurse her mother who sadly died after along illness and when I talked to her this was her story,
"when my father died,our relatives came and grabbed all our property, threw us out of our house and we were sent to the village, me and my three siblings couldn't go to school any more since our mother wasn't working, so we stayed at home and went to the garden where we planted some food that kept us going. One day our mom fell so ill that she couldn't walk any more, she normally got sick but this time it was too bad.I looked for help every where but all in vain thats when I heard the gossip that my mom had Aids.I asked her and she said she wasn't sure and then I learnt that Aids was also got through sharing sharp objects and we as a family had been sharing razor blades because we were there for each other and when our mother died, we were left helpless and another tragedy befell us, our last born died too"
To cut the story short and to emphasise what am trying write is that, unless we realize that we, as a people, are on the same team, it will be extremely difficult if not impossible to experience the joy of differences and the richness of diversity. Let us always keep in mind that we complement each other. We share the common lot of humanity. Though we may be different, our needs remain similar. All of us need to be loved, to be appreciated, and to be needed. Let us get together and celebrate one another. Let us reset our focus and experience the joy of differences.
I have also realised that Our differences should make us reach out to one another. They should bring us closer together in order to learn from and about each other. The ultimate joy would be experienced as soon as we realized that each of us is a piece of a puzzle and, that without each other, we would make an incomplete picture. The joy of differences will be experienced by our fellowship with one another.
Therefore,The only way we can see ourselves objectively is through the reflection of others. We can go off and sit in a cave and meditate for years, but we only really find out what happened in that cave when we come out and get involved with other people. So we need each other if we want to evolve.
Till then.

FEELINGS
Hello,and straight to the point, I think every creature has got feelings as shown by the response given and that depends on the situation.
Our feelings are a natural response to our thoughts and intentions. We don’t really choose our feelings directly. Our feelings are a feedback mechanism. They indicate whether we’re moving into alignment with our true desires (positive feelings) or out of alignment (negative feelings).We feel good when we’re moving towards what we want, and we feel bad when we’re moving away from what we want. And that movement is more about thought and intention than it is.
Well, for the moment this is what I have learnt and still discovering more about feeling and will keep you updated.
Now thinking about accepting our selves rather self acceptance, do we really value our selves? Or do we compromise?I believe most people simply compromise. They don’t fully accept themselves as they are, but nor are they fully comitted to lifelong growth. I think that’s a lame solution though. Why not have both? Why not fully accept yourself as you are and also be totally committed to lifelong growth? Can’t you enjoy both? Is there a way around this apparent conflict?Why does there seem to be a conflict between self-acceptance and growth anyway? I think the conflict is actually a result of a particular mindset.
personally I would rather accept my self than compromise, I dont want to fight awar that is never ending... u know what I mean?
Anyways, this is enough for today wish you all the best and be good to ur selves.

Treasures of life.
Hi there, came across this poem by Frank Armanno and how true are the words in it.
Often times we do not realise how beautiful life is and all we do is blame our selves for all that has happened or even blame our friends. I have learnt that no matter what happened or happens the things we do will always in away affect our lives either positively or negatively the same for the people we meet, all we need to do is live life at atime and just as the poem below says learn to appreciate life in its different challenging ways. I hope you will all learn something from this, do enjoy...
In my mind there's always aplace on earth where you find treasure.
it can be found in natural elements, gold, silver, & diamonds.
It can be treasures buried or lost by people who stole for pleasure,
A metal treasure hunter is always looking for the right sounds.
The act of searching in some way, is often froth with high pressure.
There are other kinds of treasures people find exciting & valuable,
they can be physical, mental, visual, spiritual &, imaginary.
The value is always relative to how individuals value unclassifiable,
for if the aim is money, a spiritual find would be contrary.
Big treasures are sometimes found in, a psychic mind predictable.
I discovered good new treasures because I followed with a heart,
it led me to a unique way of life that I would live over again.
Some childhood friends I had found I still treasure them all to start,
some have passed over but I'm still richer for knowing them.
And there's my wife for life & children, I thank them for their part
Never forget that life is full of unseen & unknown human soul strife,
make sure you go through life marking all heart felt meanings.
We never see value in human friends in a lifetime full of drum & fife,
but, a heart force of love in us all will start a souls dreamings.
Nothing is more rewarding when you remember, Treasures Of Life.
What more can I say...? Life is simply beautiful!!

10 THINGS I CAN' T IMAGINE....
Read thru Linda's blog and really liked the 10 things she couldn't imagine, so I gave it athought too and here are the top 10 Things I can't imagine
I can't imagine...
1. 24/7 power supply in Uganda.
Someone told me this will happen some day in Uganda...I'm a believer...but I just can't imagine it. Can anyone who is living in Ugnda actually imagine uniterrupted power supply?...like, there's constant power every single minute of the day, every day of the week? If you can imagine it, then it means my mind ain't working right 'cos I can't.
I can't imagine...
2. Doing without God
All through my few years I have lived on this planet, I have always put all my trust in God, to me he is the air that I breath, I lean on him, basically I rely on him and that means without him am dead so without God am totally useless...
I can't imagine...
3. Being depressed again.
A few years ago, the smallest thing would depress me. If I lost a client, money, or my business or love life wasn't going well, I would just fall into deep sadness, feeling like such a failure. But I've totally grown above that. Now, no matter how bad I have it, I am too too grateful for the gift of life and for everything I have and don't even have. If you have that kind of mindset, nothing will bring you down.
I can't imagine...
4. Sleeping with a married man
I told a friend once that I can never sleep with a married man and she said never say never. I might find myself in a situation where I have no choice. Well, first and foremost, we will always have choices. Secondly, when I had it so bad many years ago, when I was much younger and in the university, when I went for weeks without a dime in my pocket and days without food in my stomach, I never turned to these men. I can't imagine doing it now that I have enough money to take care of me...
I'm no miss goody two shoes, I have my off sides, but I'm too against the married man thingy. I'd rather sleep with 10 single guys in one night than one married man...that's how bad it is...lol!
I can't imagine...
5. Never having sex.
A friend told me sometime ago that she's never going to have sex again and I was alarmed. Never ever..? Like for real? I can't imagine never having sex. I mean I can imagine going without it for a long time, but never ever? forever ever?...ever ever? No man will go down there and wipe clean dem things? ...wink! !
I can't imagine...
6. Imagine my dad and mum ever having sex... though they are long gone
LOL! But they sure did...many many times. 'Cos they had us (Me and my other siblings). That must have been a lot of sex...just can't picture it.
I can't imagine...
7. Not having my own business by the time am 40.
I told a friend that I'm going to have a business by the time I'm 40. Am looking forward to doing this and very soon... by the way something is cooking and howeverthinks am not fit for business am about to prove you wrong just watch this space.
Like I always say, If you believe it, you can do it. And if you must dream, dream big, so am dreaming big...
I can't imagine...
8. Getting married
I pray to marry only once in my life and I can't imagine me as the bride, u know I normally feel achill run thru my veins whenever I think of marriage. being a Mrs so and so... quite frightening but I have to get married and am also praying that I do get married some day but I just can't imagine that me Brenda married.... I don't know how many people feel this way.
I can't imagine...
9. Never blogging.
I've been trying to imagine what will make me stop blogging...can't think of anything. I can take long breaks, but never blogging? My blogging will only stop when blogging doesn't exist anymore. What if my husband wants me to stop blogging? Hopefully he won't
I can't imagine...
10.Some people like Robert Mugabe, Kony, Osama Bin Laden... the list is endless of all those hard nuts who in way or the other terrorise the world ever being babies... they must have been hard babies who wre notorious even while in the womb!
I can't imagine...

THE LUCK FACTOR.
Saw this article on one of my favourite blogs, stole it and decided that it would be nice to post here and share with my fellow positive people. The article talks about luck, and ways to improve your luck. From the book, The Luck Factor, author Dr. Richard Wiseman argues that Luck is not a matter of chance, and luck can be strengthened by paying attention to your luck network.
Excerpt From the article
“To build up your network of luck, strike up conversations at work or socially with at least one person you do not know very well. Do this once a week. Break the ice by asking for information.
“Once a week, get in touch with someone you have not spoken to for a while and find out what is happening in their life”.
Be open to new experiences by playing the dice game. Make a list of six things you want to do-everything from learning French to going hang-gliding or taking dancing lessons-and number them from one to six. Roll a dice and whatever number comes up is the experience you have to try.
Obviously, though, you cannot rely completely on fate to make life choices. It is all very well to try the dice game when the stakes are truly equal, but when it comes to decisions with significant consequences like where you work, who you socialize with or how to handle a crisis-you need to rely on your common sense and moral upbringing.
Other steps include:
Listening to your lucky hunches
- Reflect on how you feel about a decision you have made, not just what you think about it.
- Make a decision and write it down
Expect to have good fortune
- Lucky people expect events to go well in different areas
- Visualize being successful imagine your exam going well.
Turn your bad luck into good luck.
- Lucky people are resilient and better at coping with misfortune when it does come their way. - They ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT side.
GOOD LUCK with STRENGTHENING UR LUCK!!!

Warren Buffet
There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the richest man on this planet who has donated $31 billion to charity.
Here are some very interesting aspects of his life:
1. He bought his first share of stock at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!
2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.
3. He still lives in the same, small 3-bedroom house in midtown Omaha that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.
4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security people around him. 5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world's largest private jet company.
6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies.
He writes only one letter each year to the CEO's of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis. He has given his CEO's only two rules.
Rule number 1: Do not lose any of your shareholder's money.
Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.
7. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His pastime after he gets home is to make himself some popcorn and watch television.
8. Bill Gates, the world's richest man, met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So, he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.
9. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.
His advice to young people: 'Stay away from credit cards and invest in yourself and remember ' :
A. Money doesn't create man, but it is the man who created money.
B. Live your life as simple as you are.
C. Don't do what others say. Just listen to them, but do what makes you feel good.
D. Don't go on brand name. Wear those things in which you feel comfortable.
E. Don't waste your money on unnecessary things. Spend on those who really are in need.
F. After all, it's your life. Why give others the chance to rule your life'
I find this so amazing, but am forced to wonder if I invested now, would I somehow be like him? but then I have not even bought asingle share, what could I be waiting for...?
From the above, I can say we all have the capacity to reach there and this is the right time am not wasting any more time, I need shares desparately and just watch this space am gonna be an investor and no jokes!
till then and stay blessed...
There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the richest man on this planet who has donated $31 billion to charity.
Here are some very interesting aspects of his life:
1. He bought his first share of stock at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!
2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.
3. He still lives in the same, small 3-bedroom house in midtown Omaha that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.

Just wondering...
Why do some people fall madly in love and others don't?
Is the world really coming to an end??
Why is it that Africa with all it mineral resources has the highest rate of poverty in this planet?
Why is it that some people find pleasure in killing others especially the suicide bombers?
Why do I have to work so hard so as to earn aliving?
so many thoughts in my mind though the above are the most pressing and why do i really have to think this much?
Guess there is something going on that I dont know or else I wouldn't be having such thoughts.
May be am just bored.....
But I can't stop thinking and wondering...
The thoughts just keep flooding my poor mind...

LET GO.
LET GO
By T. D. Jakes
There are people who can walk away from you.
And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you, let them walk.
I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.
The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us.
For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1John 2:19]
People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.
Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.You've got to know when it's dead.
You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. So stop begging people to stay.
Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ......
LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth.....
LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you .
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents
LET IT GO!!!
If you! u have a bad attitude.......
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better......
LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level inHim........
LET IT GO!!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship.......
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves......
LET IT GO!!!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed ..........
LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new thing for 2007!!!
LET IT GO!!!
Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then .
LET IT GO!!!
Because "The Battle is the Lord's!"
Wow!! Just love this, just imagine there are people we really cry to be with and even reach an extent of doing all you can so as to be with that person but you can't.what Bishop TD Jakes is saying is very true, if we let go and accept the other's decision I believe one will get that inner peace (s)he didn't know (s)he would get, you know it becomes a blessing in disguise.
So to all my buddies out there remember if you dont let me, I will definately let you be.
Cheers!

moving on...
"The past cannot be regained, although we can learn from it; the future is not ours even though we plan for it... we have only today" This is aquotation from Charles Hummel and I must say it's so true, often times all we do is hold grudges about something that happened in the past, we plan for tomorrow but forget that the best time to live is today.I remember while still at University how we planned for our days after school, how we would get good jobs and beautiful homes, when I look back I laugh and smile and thank God that though I planned for how am living now am also glad that the plan was successful but I learnt one important thing, that we only have today.
Just imagine if one did her best today I guess each one would be satified with what he or she has done and if we continued living our lives this way then every day would be a happy day for each and every one of us.
I can't help but think of the days when I was a young girl, growing up in the village with my grandie, going to the forest to collect firewood, going to the well to fetch water, going to the garden... at times Feel like going back to such alife style but then, the days are long gone and am now all grown up and used to the city life but I must admit that when I think of those days I feel like rewinding the clock and going back to being that little girl who enjoyed her village life, there was no electricity, but my grandie's little mud kitchen was a very confortable place. I remember me, my sisters and brothers would sit together and quitely each listening attentively to the colonial stories my grandie told us....
That was life then and I must appreciate the fact that I did have that opportunity of living in the village I know some of my friends have never experienced it and when one ever talked of village life they all seem lost. I learnt alot from this kind of life I was exposed to, by then my grandie would tell us that if we wanted to live like the people in the city we had to read hard all she kept saying was that we were no different from the kids in the city only that we lived in the village and they lived in the city. To cut the long story short,we did read hard, have gotten jobs and are living today to the fullest. And as for my grandie, believe me she is the happiest grandie I know of and I can never thank her enough...
As I keep growing that is age wise, I learn alot and I use all my past experinces as something I can draw back to. But as for now am taking every day as if it were my last day on this earth and am expecting every one of you people out there to do the same and please not neglect to plan for the future, we do so for the next generation and for ourselves as well I dont think any of us would want to work during the old age when you should be relaxing and reminiscing the old good days
Till then....

LOVE, BETRAYAL AND LONELINESS
Hi,
Guess you people are doing well and it has been helter-skelter for me getting ready for my exams and working as well but then this wouldn't stop me from writing this blog... I feel what am about to write itching my finger tips and guys you have to help me out and I guess that's a promise from your side.
Love, most of you will agree with me is too sweet.Most often we ladies dream about the fairly tale love affairs where you meet that prince charming either you meet the right frog and kiss it or your prince charming has to rescue you from that haunted castle... whatever way one would want to meet his or her lover doesn't matter as long as you meet the right person.
I have a friend, I wont mention her name but my God while in University her talk was all about marriage and you know, that perfect marriage life and before graduation she was married but three years down the road she has separated with her husband and as I write this, she is promising never and I mean not even to allow a single drop of love into her life Lol!
In most cases we want to be loved and well give back that love as well but before you love someone have you thought about loving your self? I think and am sure that if one sat back, had aserious meeting with him or herself and the agenda should focus mainly on you and you alone, think about you, what is it about you that you are looking for in a relationship? How do you treat your self? Do you love your self? I belief a person will treat you according to the way you treat your self. Love your self first, pamper it, have a focus and when you think you are ready to settle down with someone go ahead but remember you should think about you its not that one should be selfish but if you don't love your self who will do it for you?
Often times when love turns sour and the parties involved go separate ways, the victim who is hurt most withdraws to herself or himself and becomes so reserved they come up with promises of never falling in love again. I know this stage can be so hurting emotionally but then you have to move on, its only you who can make change in your life no one else will do it for you. so, the earlier you do it the better for you!
Recently, a friend to my friend was asking her to get her a man and her reasons were that she was too lonely. By the way she was too blunt to the extent of saying she was missing sex! I don't know how some people regard loneliness but I believe that if you are someone who knows what you are you will always value yourself and off course sex is something intimate but its also good having it at the right time- guess you all know what I mean by the right time. Not being in arelationship should render one lonely, there are so many things one can do, like go watch movies, move out with your friends, have some fun, actually I normally tell my friends to have some time and do it alone what I mean is have abubble bath with all the perfumes you love, cook yourself your favourite dish then have acandle lite dinner for you with your best wine or champagne, listen to some good music and even dance, basically give yourself a good treat.
As for my friend's friend, I totally think she is thinking the wrong way and that's why in the beginning I asked for your help. Can some one be that lonely?? What can one do in order not to feel lonely? Tell me what you people out there think... I cant wait to hear from you.
Enjoy....

Hello!
Hello everyone!!
I dont know how you guys are feeling this year but as for me it has definately began wonderfully and am not saying that everything is moving on smoothly rather am seeing to it that i enjoy the year.
Now just wondering.... has the world ever been abetter place to live in?
Guess there are so many answers to this question, what I know is that we have choices when it comes to the way we live and that determines whether the world is abetter place to live in or not.
Am not going to write about the choices we make but just have a small story to share with you people.Recently on my way from work something funny happened to me as I was moving towards the taxi park I noticed this guy smiling at me, mark you it was a wide smile and I thought to my self that this guy must be knowing me... I moved towards him greeted him and my God the way he grabbed my hand and since i was wearing my company shirt that day he straight away lamented that i can tell you are doing well and he even asked me how work was I told him fine and straight away I also asked him what he was up to and his work.
He told me he was working with BBC and was back in town from Nairobi. This sent my thoughts flying high and I had to think hard, was I imagining that I did know this guy? I had to ask God to help me. As we continued talking he asked about other people I didnt even know or did I know them but had forgotten? He told me they were our old school buddies but to be sincere I didnt know them. I had to end the meeting right away and excused my self in the pretex of going to meet someone.
Am still wondering what I was up to that day....I saw the guy smiling and I just dragged my legs towards him... what on earth was I thinking? Meeting someone strange and even having some talk about the old school days... I must have been crazy!!
At times life is so sweet and funny the people we meet and when I come to think of all the people I meet am thankful. We all meet different kinds of people some funny others weired and some just so sweet.Funny and interesting.... and thats life!!

REALITIES OF LIFE...
Ever asked your self what is so strange about life and yet
it's also the reality? Well I made some discoveries and I want
share them with you.
Do you realise that what we are today is aresult of our own past actions
and whatever we wish to be in future depends on our present actions?
So, decide on how you have to act now.
As humans we were born to live and we don't live because we are born
We should not go the way life takes us rather we should take life the
way we go. I have come across people who say they will follow the course
of the wind, where ever it blows they will go. Now I completely dont buy this thought even if we all have choices to choose from, we should live ameaning ful life and make the best choices.
I have discovered that the happiest human beings are those who were able to
face their difficulties along their paths and simply because they were
able to push forward.I wonder what they mean by "difficulties".
Never explain your self to anyone because if the person likes you he or she will
not need it and the person who dislikes you will not believe it. Afriend told me this
but thinking twice, at times there is need for explanations depending on the situation.
I wonder if you understand your self wholly and I think I do try to understand
my self but as per the lttle research I carried out, I got to know that the most
difficult phase of life is not when no one under stands you, its when you dont
understand your self... weired isnt it?
This is for now but there is more to come.....
till then

THE MAYANNAISE JARS
When things in your life seem
Almost too much to handle,
When 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
Remember the mayonnaise jar
And 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class And had some items in
front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
He picked up a very large
And empty mayonnaise jar
And proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students
If the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the
jar.
He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open
Areas between the golf balls.
He then asked
The students again
If the jar was full..
They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand And poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full.
The students responded
With an unanimous "yes."
The professor then produced
Two cups of coffee from under the table
And poured the entire contents
Into the jar, effectively
Filling the Empty space between the sand.
The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor,
As the laughter subsided,
"I want you to recognize that
This jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things - God, family, children, health,
Friends, and Favorite passions -- Things that if everything else was
lost And only they remained, Your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter Like your job, house, and
car.
The sand is everything else --
The small stuff.
"If you put the sand into the jar first,"
He continued,
"there is no room for
The pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life.
If you spend all your time
And energy on the small stuff,
You will never have room for
The things that are
Important to you.
So...
Pay attention to the things
That are critical to your happiness.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.
Play another 18.
There will always be time
To clean the house
And fix the disposal.
"Take care of the golf balls first --
The things that really matter.
Set your priorities.
The rest is just sand."
One of the students raised her hand
And inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled.
"I'm glad you asked".
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
there's always room for A couple of cups of coffee with a friend."
Almost too much to handle,
When 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
Remember the mayonnaise jar
And 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class And had some items in
front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
He picked up a very large
And empty mayonnaise jar
And proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students
If the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the
jar.
He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open
Areas between the golf balls.
He then asked
The students again
If the jar was full..
They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand And poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full.
The students responded
With an unanimous "yes."
