Weapons of Mass Destruction

-

Bloodshed all over! hear the noise of guns,

Alongside bomb explosions.

Demolition, devastation and plundering of property,

Ravaging, ruining and desolating nature,

Human mass slaughter, merciless torture

All in the name of peacekeeping,

All in the mad search for weapons of mass destruction.


Weapons of mass destruction are not in the crevices and dungeons of Iran and Iraq,

Weapons of mass destruction are in the heart.

Hatred is a weapon of mass destruction, 

For a spoon in the hand of an enemy is much deadlier than a nuclear bomb in the hand of a friend.


Power hunger is a weapon of mass destruction,

Selfishness is a weapon of mass destruction.

Tribalism is a weapon of mass destruction,

Racism is a weapon of mass destruction.

Grudges are weapons of mass destruction,

Jealousy is a weapon of mass destruction.


Weapons of mass destruction are not made of metals and chemicals,

Weapons of mass destruction are not harbored in the armory of a country somewhere,

Weapons of mass destruction are in the heart.


It is selfishness, racism, tribalism, envy, grudges, jealousy and power hunger which made somebody to design a bomb.

It is not a bomb which causes somebody to hate,

But it is somebody who causes a bomb to hurt.


If you are against war, why are you against those who are against war?

If you really want to stop war in Africa, why sell us firearms?

Why sign the peace accord with the right hand while the left is holding a gun?


Violence begets violence, love begets love.

Bloodshed begets brutality, brutality begets force

Force begets cruelty, cruelty begets fighting

Fighting begets resentment and resentment begets a war.


You cannot correct a wrong with another wrong, 

For two wrongs do not make a right.

You cannot stop war using war, 

You cannot dig a pit to fill another pit

Sow love and reap love


We need devotion than bitterness, affection than animosity, 

Adoration than antipathy, Emancipation than emaciation.


We are tired of freedom of doom, politics without principle

Signs without sovereignty, wealth without working for it,

Power without moral purpose, knowledge without truth

Truth without love, and love without truth.

All coming from a heart without love.


Guard the avenues of the heart than the banks,

Guard the avenues of the heart than boundaries and border posts,

For the heart is the source of all evil and all good.


This is a voice of concern, a voice of reason,

This is a voice of love, a voice of restoration,

This is the voice of *ngiroziyehondo*

TAKE ME BACK TO SCHOOL

-
I want to go back to school for here my heart is Forlorn, I want to go back to school where I can find my love for books. Where I can find my People, Where I can together with books With friends clucking by my bedside like chicken   I want to go back to school for here meaning is lost, I want to go back to school where my muscles stretch over the desks, Teachers’ voices screaming all over the class Providing sense into my brains, Learning and gaining confidence in my heart   I want to go back to school; here all roots are rotting, I want to go back to school, Where deep in the books, I run after the good performance I want to go back to school, where I will wade in water bathe in knowledge. Dance at the achievement and pray to the sky.

THE ACTIVITY MATRIX

-

In addition to the planning methods you have, I would like to recommend a system of setting priorities which is called, the activity matrix. In this matrix, we try to show people from different work spaces how to put first things first. How do you set priorities?  Read ahead and learn how it works and try it out. It consists of four quadrants, Q1 to Q4 as illustrated below. What is important and urgent to one person may not be for everyone. You are free to set up your own according to your situation. Important and urgent, Q1 This is called the fire fighting quadrant. You deal with a problem as though you are fighting a fire. If you do not, the fire will burn you up. It is about issues which if not dealt with will attract immediate consequences. This happens to all of us. There are times when we deal with stuff as it comes or according to the pressure with which it comes. In this quadrant, you are driven by pressure in order to act. These are activities where you cannot help it. You...
