Man at his worst!

Borrowing form Aristotle, "At his best, man is the noblest of all animals; separated from law and justice he is the worst".
Its normally a feeling that never ends...to fulfill personal desires and attitude. am fond of this,lol!  i remember Theodore Roosevelt quote
"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing. " but why do i tend to urgue against him.?
I remember Jim Rohn said that
"The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering if something could have materialized - never knowing." , but am always in the know!
When i try to convince my head and try and do something to be remembered i end up thinking  “I want to be remembered as the girl who always smiles even when her heart is broken, and the one that could always brighten up your day even if she couldn't brighten her own.”(stolen) i end up hurting myself instead.

As Plato said, "Death is not the worst that can happen to men." The worst is what can happen when u r at your BEST.

When life becomes troublesome.........

I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world.  This makes it hard to plan the day.  ~Elwyn Brooks White

Life is like a blanket too short.  You pull it up and your toes rebel, you yank it down and shivers meander about your shoulder; but cheerful folks manage to draw their knees up and pass a very comfortable night.  ~Marion Howard

Once and for all

I thought life could be given a fair trial
without knowint what to with hold for it
it was just the beginning of everything i though was good to me,
neither did i fulfill my endless selfishness
thinking that all was meant for me.

I thought i was always fair, untill reality unfolded to mine eyes
"Treat other the way you want them to treat you", My mom usually said to me:
I never gave it a trial as i did to the nonpaying life expectations!!
I trird making a smaller paradise around me, but never to my friend!
It HURTS!! 
AUCH !!
i though i could make it alone, walk alone and face the world alone;
Wishing all could just turn, JUST TURN, and give a toss on the forehead
But never even a single day did it happen.

To all my BELOVED FRIENDS, i know and understand i did HURT you,
ALL AM ASKING FOR IS FORGIVENESS,
As no man can live an ISLAND.

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, in the name of the Loving Lord,
And the giver of life and forgiveness, i pray that one day
THAT ONE DAY;
Life will unfold the promises that i broke before your eyes.

Proverbs 20:22
Do not say, "I'll pay you back for this wrong!" Wait for the LORD, and he will deliver you.

Life at it best ?#$#$%$!

 

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”

The Best moments!

This same day,
This same fantafabulous month,
When everthing seems to be on top of the mountain
But really changing to bounty paying.
Hahaaaaaa! i never enjoyed it even the single moment,
But for hevenly sake i got myself to the ground,
Waiting for the best to reveal the moments!
wow!
I never though the world can be this cruel,
Ee expect to be helped by them "UTUMISHI KWA WOTE" but i really doubt this,
They are the only human being without feeling,
Eti i will help u if u can be able to make my back straight(kiinua mgongo/chai).
Really i have been messed up with the real meaning of helping,
Changing from who we are to the other next human nature That makes no sense!!!
I better be irrational than rational to commit all this(Lord forgive me and your people).
This made the fun of the day!!!
2/4/2011. The day to celebrate.

More than consolation

William Shakespeare

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms;
Then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lin'd,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
His youthful hose, well sav'd, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion;
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
***William Shakespeare***

New Year's Resolutions ???@#%#%!!

It's that time of year when many people look forward to a fresh start in life and resolve to improve their capabilities and capacities. However, the problem with the start of a new year is that most good intentions are often derailed within a few weeks.
Make this year the year you make good on your New Year's resolutions.
first:

 Don't Kid Yourself
"The most important thing is to be honest with yourself," says Howard Josepher, a former heroin addict and president of Exponents Inc., "You need to know the difference between enjoying yourself and self-medicating. It's not that self-medicating is necessarily bad — but you should give yourself parameters. If you are adhering to them, O.K. If not, you need to check yourself."
Don't Try to Scare Yourself Straight
Research shows that in the long term, the pleasure of victory is a better incentive than the agony of defeat. "Punishment is a poor motivator," says Hester. "It sets people up for failure. If all you do is punish yourself for failure, you won't stay motivated to change for very long."
Instead, reward yourself for sticking to your limits and focus on the benefits of changing. For instance, if your goal is to drink less or lose weight, treat yourself to something you want — a new book or DVD, say — each time you successfully resist a tempting dessert or achieve a goal, like a month of abstinence. Success tends to beget greater success. If you do slip back into old patterns, avoid recriminations. "Don't say, 'I can't do it,' " says Marlatt. "People make mistakes. If you keep working at it, you will get better over time. That's what the research shows."
For some people, trying to moderate bad habits is not achievable or takes more effort than abstaining altogether — as the philosopher St. Augustine put it, "Complete abstinence is easier than perfect moderation." Recognizing this by trying and failing can also be a critical step toward behavior change. 
Get Better Friends
Consciously and unconsciously, people tend to imitate those around them. That's why the latest research shows that things like happiness, smoking cessation and obesity can spread like a contagion through social networks. So surround yourself with friends who can also be role models. "Make sure that people you hang out with are people who look and act the way you would like to. Social imitation is the easiest form not only of flattery but of self-improvement," says Stanton Peele, author of Seven Tools to Beat Addiction.

Just as crazy than before

Cracking coconuts for Guinness Book
 

For 37-year-old Keshab Swain of Delhi breaking coconuts is as easy as breaking bread. Unlike most people who use various implements like hammer, sickle or a large stone to get to the inner fleshy part of a coconut, Swain deploys nothing but his elbows, knees and head to crack open as many as 186 coconuts in just above six minutes. "I hope to better my record and aim to get into the Guinness Book of world records," Swain who has figured in the Limca Book of Records for 2008 and 2009. 




One church – One Book: "Crazy Love"

For five Sundays, October 17 – November 14, the Congregational Church of Batavia will be focusing their worship services on the book “Crazy Love” by Francis Chan. The sub-title is Overwhelmed by a Relentless God and that expresses the central theme of the book. God’s love for us is a relentless love that doesn’t quit even in the face of our rejection. God’s love for us is a “crazy love” – and God wants us to respond to him in the same “crazy” way. .

Why Kibaki Is The Main Target in Ocampo's List of 6

Kenya comes full circle from the Kapenguria Six to the Ocampo six

Nobody would have guessed it but the Kenyatta name entered into the history books of Kenya leadership politics when he was charged with six others in Kapenguria for being not only a member but the leader of an illegal murderous gang called the Mau mau. Almost 60 years later the Kenyatta name is set to exit leadership politics in Kenya with another Kenyatta being charged with directing a murderous gang called the Mungiki.



His excellency President Mwai Kibaki's behaviour in recent months explained.
Admittedly the situation is very different this time round but the similarities are uncanny and more numerous than one would think at first glance. Both trials involved six persons, the earlier case was the Kapenguria six, this time round it is the Ocampo six. Both controversial court cases were a very major turning point in the history of Kenya and destined to lead to the liberation of the Kenyan people with this second one leading to the major liberation of ending impunity in these shores.

And the end of impunity is the underlying messages that many analysts have aptly captured as special ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo released his list of six suspects. For the first time the legal strategy of Ocampo can be clearly analyzed. The direction it is leading is shocking and unexpected for many because it is the road to justice and it sticks like a leach to his promises of dealing with those who were most responsible for the violence. The list reveals just how sharp a legal mind the Argentine lawyer is and is a warning volley to the lawyers for the six of what they will be up against in the months to come. But what I personally found even more revealing was that the list subtly and very clearly on my mind explains plenty of political mysteries that have plagued Kenya in recent times.

Let me start with the political mystery explained. In recent months those who have known President Kibaki have been shocked at how the president metamorphosed before their very eyes from a well know permanent caterpillar to the beautiful butterfly that delivered a new constitution that is bound to have far reaching grave consequences on the political class (in fact we have already seen evidence of the fallout starting to happen even before the constitution has been fully implemented).

Could it be that the president was preparing very early for a strong defense at the ICC based on an image of being the number one reformer having personally pushed for and succeeded in getting a new constitution implemented? I mean the guy was fightoing for a new constitution like his life depended on it. Could it be the reason why the president went to such great lengths and expense to invite the most famous fugitive from the ICC, President Al Bashir of Sudan to discredit and reduce the political impact of the ICC court and make a strong case for African cases to be left to the AU to resolve?

When you think about it, it all neatly fits into place like some jigsaw puzzle and makes sense. Especially when you consider that amongst the six on Ocampo’s list are head of Public service Francis Muthaura (a name that shocked many Kenyans and was totally unexpected in the list) and that of the notorious immediate former commissioner of Police Maj Gen Hussein Ali. Both these public servants were at the heart of what triggered the unprecedented killings in Kenya in January 2008. In giving their evidence everything will point straight at where they were taking orders from and that is the head of state. Indeed it will be a repeat of exactly what happened in the case of Sudan where President Al Bashir’s name emerged later as the evidence unfolded in proceedings. His indictment actually happened long after the Sudan trials had commenced.

Impeccable sources have proved to this blogger that the case against the two gentlemen (Ali and Muthaura) will be the easiest to prove, with water tight evidence. An aside here is that many Kenyans (and not just politicians, we see the same disease in the comments in this blog every day) are too fond of opening their mouths too quickly and making comments that display their ignorance and lack of knowledge on many issues. For instance in this case what many forget is that the ICC is not a court designed to prosecute chicken thieves. The guiding principal here is crimes against humanity. What happened in Kenya in January 2008 was so horrifying that any maker of the most scary horror movies in Hollywood will be quickly challenged and their work made to look like fairy tales for toddlers in comparison to what happened within the shores of our beloved country. I tried my best to capture some of that horror when the clamour for blanket amnesty for perpetrators of the post election violence started, led by some very wicked MPs. Regular readers of this blog will remember the statement we published here from a woman who watched her husband being killed and was then gang raped. But barely had a rape started when her attackers felt that the place where they were plunging their male tools in brutal rape was too small and actually proceeded to “widen it” with a panga and then continued to rape amid the blood spurting out in torrents. By some miracle of God that woman survived to tell her story.See her story here
The legal strategy of using people who were taking orders to lead to the source of the orders is a smart one both legally and politically and for all intents and purposes is bound to work like a charm.

Now we understand why there has been so much panic amongst the political class in recent days and even talk of withdrawing Kenya from the Rome statute which is the most stupid idea I have heard in a long time because notice has to be given of 12 months and withdrawal will not affect ongoing cases in any way.

The old powerful Mafia don that has dominated Kenya for so long like a dark colossus and is called impunity is definitely going down. He is of course going down fighting, but down he is going.

Life Quotes



Friends
“Even though we've changed and we're all finding our own place in the world, we all know that when the tears fall or the smile spreads across our face, we'll come to each other because no matter where this crazy world takes us, nothing will ever change so much to the point where we're not all still friends.”

A day's fate
"Every new day conceivably come with its dark and bright side. However, it's the dark side that pertubs us and the sole side that we often choose to remember. Albeit it only makes us us sad, we need to take courage and look at the other side of the ocean. This will prove to us that the presumed curse is actually a blessing."
Enjoy life na mpango!!!

SKYPESOASIS: Can't believe in yourself?

http://hubpages.com/hub/10-Golden-Rules-for-Success

Can't believe in yourself?

Along with a strong belief in your own inner voice, you also need laser-like focus combined with unwavering determination.
-- Larry Flynt
How many a times do we face challenges just because we din't take time to listen to our own mind?
How many a times have suffered from our own ignorance ?
Take the right measures and find life what u want it to be,
though it may present lemons to us, BUT we FORGET that Lemonade can come from it!!!

10-Golden-Rules-for-Success
Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.
-- Buddha

This last chance

Mary Pickford said "If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down but the staying down"
we always wish, that if chances exist to exist in our world.
Never to take our thought or words serious;
Thing may seem obvious;
but with hidden meaning in the words.
Take for example , you are given time to think of  what u can do within the shortest time possible, there you are with the best ideas. But wait, I'll extend that with two weeks. you celebrate.
When time is at the peak, you realize, Gosh!! i have;n finished what i was supposed to have done.
That's when the reality really befalls us and we ask for the chance now, This is how human mind acts? I am yet to know since i fall in the same category of those who procrastinate thing abut i try to be the best i can.
       Try this one out, close your eyes and choose a task, take a random number from one to eight-can either be hours or minute, please be realistic with the kind of the task you choose and the time allocation.
Have a basic plan and the out line of the activity and settle down to actualizing it. Write it down in your diary and or in your most accessible point for future referral.
There you are!! Being realistic and you will never ask for a second chance again.

Jim Rohn concludes for us
If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much. 
Warm Christmas holidays.

Joe Biden Jokes


Joe Biden JokesWhat can I say, the guy's a friggen jokester's dream. He's a big deal right? For those of you living under a rock, he introduced the President at the health bill signing a few days ago. Vice-President Biden whispered to Obama that the passage of health care reform was a "Big fu***ng deal." Then again, Biden's age, a bowel movement is a "big fu***ng deal."

Elementary

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of wine, they lay down for the night and went to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend. "Watson, look up and tell me what you see."
Watson replied, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?"
Watson pondered for a minute. "Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.
"Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Why, what does it tell you?"
Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. "Watson, you idiot. Somebody has stolen our tent."
