FACING REALITY

By Vincent Kumwenda
I have had problems recently to come to terms with some issues I face in life. I have tried to hide my issues to the world but to no avail. They still find a way to show their ugly face to the world.I am who I am. There are some things in life we need to face even though we don't want them. Facts will always be facts regardless of what our opinions are.

Most of us try to live our lives in illusions. Preferring to show only the best sides of our lives. I have met several people who borrow clothes and other things from friends just to show that they are well to do when they are not. In fact I know of a person who managed to convince a girl to marry him because of materials belonging to his friends. You can guess what happened after the girl found out.

Its a fact that some things that happen to us are not good to be known by our friends, girlfriends or workmates but to live a life completely different from what we are supposed to live is not good. I have tried it and it doesn't work. You end up being a slave. You don't have peace of mind which is an important ingredient in life's success.

We all need to face some realities in life. We need to accept some things and find a way of sorting them out or asking for help. If you have a problem and you choose to hide it, you will hinder others who might help you. Once i discovered this fact of life I am a very free person. I am free to dress in any way and go to any place i want to go without thinking of what people will say about me.

Life is hard for impostors or those who live double lives. Just come out of your senses and live your own life regardless of what people will say about your situations. There are some situations we face which we cannot change or overturn. Just accept the reality and plan to move forward. Real and original people are making it big in life because they are just playing their real game.

TRUST

By Kelsik
TRUST “I just can’t believe that it was you all this time around. How could you do such a thing to me? You have betrayed me. You have let me down!” These could be the words of a man whose heart and trust have been broken by someone he/she trusted. Let us face it, it is hard to come to terms with the reality that the person we trusted with all we had betrayed us. In many cases, people we trust are the ones that betray us or let us down. Look at Peter who was the closest person to Jesus let him down by denying him, Judas plotted against him and handed him over his enemies, spouses cheating on their partners, husbands defiling their baby girls, leaders fails to fulfill their promises they made to their followers, men of God lying to their sheep’s. All these shows us that trust is always broken by the people who were suppose to protect and cover us. Cursed is a man who puts his trust in a man. Why is it so? Because men are, evil and they are filled with selfish ambitions and des...

THE FALLEN HERO (R.I.P JACKO)

By Kelsik
Just as there's a thin line between love and hate so is also true with life and death. You meet somebody today full of life, the next thing you will hear tomorrow is that the man is dead. Such is the truth about life. Just this year I have been shocked by death news. The first was my uncle who after working the whole day on his house (he was building) with his builders, felt ill the same day night and he died in early hours of the next day. This shocked me. How can a man who was full of life die like that? He never had any serious health problems to justify his sudden death. The second one was my own friend Nkasa (not Joseph Nkasa) who died less the same kind of death. Now the recent one being Micheal Jacko Jackson. His sudden death has not only shocked me as an individual but also the whole world. I had been a fan of Jacko for a long time. This guy was about to make a come back starting from 13 July 2009 which could have seen him going for a tour and he was about to have 50 conce...

SUDDEN DEATH

By Vincent Kumwenda
I have heard, read or witnessed suicide deaths before but it had never happened to a close friend or relative.But the recent death of my friend who chose to take away his life has had a big effect on my life. It has taught me a very important lesson that i will try not to forget. Sam had just graduated from one of the constituent colleges of the University of Malawi with a degree in Electrical Engineering. He was a very intelligent friend who i adored since our primary school days. He was just brilliant beyond explanation. He got born again in secondary and was active in youth fellowships. We all knew we had a strong member, advisor and a role model. He openly said that was a virgin even at 25 years and wanted to maintain that until he met his life partner. The unfortunate thing happened when he joined a group of friends for a workshop at Lunzu Trading Centre. We are told that he was convinced to sleep with a prostitute. (I don't know how one managed to convince him to do such a th...
