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 concerts in his tour. This I believe could have had a positive impact on his rather troubled life.

Jacko will be always be remembered as a hero in the music circle. His work inspired many into music like Usher Raymond and me. Today Usher is a great musician while I am a great listener. All sorts of bad things were said about him while he was alive but his achievements overshadow his mistakes. America and the whole world has lost a great talent.

Jackos' demise has confirmed to me that nobody owns life. Today is Jacko tomorrow is you and me. What legacy are we going to leave behind? Death comes to all, to The good, The bad and The ugly.

R.I.P Jacko. We will forever miss you.

A Brood Of Unprincipled Leaders

By Kelsik
Leadership isn’t the most important thing. It is everything to success. Nations and tribes rise and fall with leadership. Economic, social, and spiritual development and growth all hinge on leadership. How far the nation can go depends on leadership. How generous and wicked a people can depend on leadership Personal development depends also on how one governs and leads his or her life. There will not be progress or regression without the presence of leadership. Change can't happen without leadership. People can complain about bad economic and social conditions all they want, but they will never change for the better without the presence of a good leader.   "A group of ships led by a lion will always defeat an army of lions led by a sheep". From this quote, it can be concluded that with leadership comes everything. The vision, attitude, and character of a leader will determine where the followers will end up. How the followers behave is a direct replication of how th...

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 MAGIC WORDS

By Kelsik
It a beautiful sunny day, clear clouds, birds sing, kids playing, it was just such a wonderful day until we heard a horrendous scream of a woman. We dropped everything we were doing and ran towards where the scream was coming from. We discovered that the heartbreaking scream and crying was coming not far from where we were. We arrived at the scene only to find a woman helplessly on the ground covered in dirty and an ocean of tears rolling down her cheeks. Her sight was so somber, heartbreaking and very frightening that it made our eyes watery before we could even understand why she was crying. We inquired from her what the problem was, she didn’t respond in words but she just pointed at a window just above her. We went closer to the window to see what really made this woman so broken and helpless. What we saw was so heart crushing, shocking, unbelievable and very painful. It was such a horrifying sight that made us shade a tear upon taking a gazing only once. It was very confu...
