A very good day to you my friends all over the world. Habari/Jambo rafiki! As-salamu alaykum! Mbote na yo, moninga! I am grateful, just as you are, to God our Creator for giving us another beautiful day. Everyday l get excited. I plan to be happy but as usual do not look out for happiness. One cannot find him by just looking around because he is always busy visiting others. My planning involves preparing conditions that make him comfortable to stay longer and be present every day. In this planet there is no stopping of learning. Our brain capacity is underutilized if we stop reading and seeing for getting learned in the process. I plan also to read the Bible every day and any other two books. So l read 3 books at the same time or simultaneously. A practice l learnt from Mr. Strive Masiyiwa, the ECONET founder from Zimbabwe. I read the Bible daily and it makes me grow in all areas of my life. The Bible is a spiritual book, a living one for that matter. It works better than the food we eat daily because when were are hungry the treatment is temporal. If it was written in spiritual form, few if not all men would understand the message. I wonder how pessimists and skeptics would have wanted the best medium of communication from our Creator apart from the Holy Spirit. God is spirit and we all are. He is beyond the universe. We just cannot see the spirits inside us daily but if God takes it away we will not see each other doing what we like doing or don’t like doing. Except that friends and relatives will visit your preservation site for remembrance. The other book l am reading is a higher education learning piece titled Social Psychology. I read by default. My wife is a sociologist/psychologist and therefore l have to keep up with her acquired and applied knowledge to avoid being on different levels when it comes to reasoning and to some lesser but critical extent, conflict management. I do not want to appear unlearned. It’s not that l don’t swallow my pride and accept my shortfall or lack of knowledge when she suggests a better way of doing things. Whatever essential knowledge l will fail to learn on this earth l hope my children will learn for me and keep it in the family for the next generations to come. All are free to move in any acceptable direction of choice. As a parent, no one will not allow wayward career choices as long as they are still around. I am not worried despite my head turning grey and white. A baldness is a good sign of wisdom and knowledge. The third book is just about English to French to Swahili to Lingala translation. I have to understand the basics and be able to communicate in the last three languages. It’s a must in my current environment. Swahili is the easiest to learn from the trio. Just to help you to appreciate the French language. It’s not difficulty even for someone coming from English language background. In fact l do not use the word difficulty in every challenge l face. Once l say it with my mouth, difficulty works to his full ability in me, those sent to assist me and to a later extent the listeners. I wish you all a great and fruitful weekend. May your boundaries be extended. May love, respect, appreciation, happiness, forgiveness, sharing, honesty, integrity, compassion and peace be the most important things we plan for every day. Make them comfortable, you will find they will always be present.
