THE SCULPTORS ATTITUDE

I woke up early excited over all I got to,
do before the clock strikes midnight.
I have responsibilities to fulfil today.
Iam important.
My job is to choose what kind of day
Iam going to have.
Today I can complain because the
weather is rainy or...
I can be thankful that the grass is
getting watered for free.
Today I can feel sad that I don't
have more money or..
I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide
me away from waste.
Today I can grumble about my
health or...
I can rejoice that Iam alive.
Today I can lament over all that my
parents didn't give me when I was
growing up or...
I can feel grateful that they allowed
me to be born.
Today I can cry because roses have
thorns or...
I can celebrate that thorns have roses.
Today I can mourn my lack of
friend or...
I can excitedly embark upon a quest
to didcover new relationships.
Today I can whine because I have to
go to work or...
I can shout for joy because I have a
job to go to.
Today I can complain because I
have to do housework or...
I can feel honored because the
Lord has provided shelter for my mind,
body and soul.
Today stretches ahead of me,
waiting to be shaped.
And here Iam, the sculptor who
gets to do the shaping.
What today will be like is up to me.
I get to choose what kind of day I will
have"

#BeautyofVolunteerism:My TV Interview on Volunteerism

Volunteerism in Kenya is gaining traction and I am happy to have been part of this journey (read my story on how I began volunteering at 16 years here ) . A few days ago the President Uhuru Kenyatta invited Kenyans to offer volunteer services on December 5th as part of celebrations to mark International Volunteer Day . Very soon we will be launching the national volunteerism policy. All these developments herald a new dawn for the volunteerism sector in the country. I sat down with KBC Tv's Sam to discuss these new developments and what they mean for the country. Watch the interview and share your thoughts. Kenya is among the few African countries to come up with a homegrown volunteerism policy. The policy aims to not only recognize volunteerism and its contribution to GDP but also celebrate and protect the rights of volunteers, volunteer involving organizations and beneficiaries. A copy of the policy is available on the Ministry of Labor website http://www.labour.go.ke/reso...

The higher you go in the corporate structure, the smaller your balls become.

INTERESTING OBSERVATION WITH BALLS!! 1 The sport of choice for the urban poor is SOCCER. 2 The sport of choice for maintenance level employees is BASKETBALL. 3 The sport of choice for front-line workers is RUGBY . 4 The sport of choice for supervisors is CRICKET. 5 The sport of choice for middle management is TENNIS. And.... 6 The sport of choice for corporate executives and officers is GOLF. THE AMAZING CONCLUSION: The higher you go in the corporate structure, the smaller your balls become. There must be a ton of people in the Government playing marbles..........

dirty four letter words

A young couple got married and left on their honeymoon . Back at home for a few days, the bride called her mother. "Well, how was the honeymoon?" asked the mother. "Oh, Mama," she replied, "the honeymoon was wonderful! So romantic..." Suddenly she burst out crying. "But, Mama, as soon as we returned, Sam started using the most horrible language. He's been saying things I've never heard before! All these awful dirty ...
