Lost in thought, Lost in transit
steamy n hot, bracing for the hit
This is hard fought,keep yourself a fist
For after this bout, we look forward to a feast]]> Sat, 30 Jun 2007 16:32:00 EDT http://kerryudo.tigblog.org/post/225387 4.95 8.31666674.958.3166667 http://kerryudo.tigblog.org/post/160699
Extraordinaire achievements for the ordinary Man

A home for the Man on the street

Food on the table for the hungry child in a drought stricken country

Children learning arts and craft rather than war

Parents having a better relationship with themselves and better still with their kids

And above all, I wish us all to see the end of this year cos without life, there's nothing.

C yall at the end]]> Sun, 04 Feb 2007 07:58:00 EST http://kerryudo.tigblog.org/post/160699 4.95 8.31666674.958.3166667 http://kerryudo.tigblog.org/post/42382 Missed me? Sorry it was neccessary.
For the past week, I've been in a conference on Leadership n it's been just hectic so that was why i could not come around online to do anything.
All he same, I'm back n it's nice to be online once again.
I will keep you posted on other details as they come.

I picked a cut or would i say 'gouge' on my fore finger some days ago in a motorbike accident and thus i've been advised not to go near any of our patients/clients so that so that I don't get infected and I can't see myself using latex gloves to touch and hold my little friends cos it look too stigmatizing and it's even too costly for the organization to maintain too(when i'm not a medical staff.)
So for now i'm more of a logistics, reconaissance and office person(observer force. lol) and i feel very tied up in here.
Pls wish me to have my hand healed soon so that i can get back to the work i've come to love immediately and get back to the real me.Thank God for my people at NCO cos theve been very helpful through this period.

There were encouraged to go take their baths and then brought back but one of the kids(the youngest)still looked down and with rat bites on his hands and butt and I proceeded to ask our co-ordinator what was wrong knowing that we have a lot of them who have lost a parent or both parents to AIDS were themselves infected.
The anwer I received was not just startling but mind boggling as well. His name was Saviour and he had just lost his mother about 2 months ago to AIDS and was himself infected and virtually abandoned because their father had not the slightest hint of care for them and thus if not for Neighbourhood Care, he would have joined his Mum by now.
I play a lot with kids and always make them smile at least but this was the first kid I came across that never smiled.
I have tried as much as can to make him get and join his siblings at play but to no avail. I understand the pain his tender body has to go through and I will continue to be there for him whether he likes it or not and I will continue to do my part for now especially seeing that we has to be supplemented with personal funds and donations as the government funds never come on time and more time is spent canvassing for money rather than helping these needy people especially these kids who just want to live like we all do.]]> Tue, 01 Aug 2006 10:24:00 EDT http://kerryudo.tigblog.org/post/41448 4.95 8.31666674.958.3166667 http://kerryudo.tigblog.org/post/41394 It felt so bad to think that I had no physical reminders of my childhood years(The Birthdays, Trips, Vacations etc.)I acted tough and pretended everything was okay(I even went as far as visiting some sick people, cheering up a friend out of a broken relationship).
Though I tried to distract myself with these activities,it pierced me deep inside and felt terrible; I'm so grateful for the lessons I've learnt from this incident and I will like to share them with you.
I've just found out that while I moan over childhood pics, There are millions of others who have no childhood and even when they do have, it's not worth remebering at all because it's a nightmare while it lasts and I want to use this cahnce to leave you with these wwords

-Build more Bridges than Walls

-Try to see how you can prevent others from passing through the same problems you are passing through/passed through

-Expand yourself a little beyond your limits

-Think Globally

It's only after you have done these can you change yourself and even Change The World.
