This life....

By
If I cry two tears for her that will be the most that I would give her. She left me stranded in my nightmares taking pictures of my memories while she right there. Twisting the blade in my heart deep, always in my mind so I can’t sleep. She used to tell me she was all mine now the only way I see her is online.

I’m doing drugs just trying to feel you; I’m killing me trying to reach you. I built my life around you; I thought I found it all when I found her. How’ you really feel I may never know. As I walk around with my hands on my waist and my eyes fixed to oblivion I realize some things never change; once in love and its gone you don’t look at it the same. To hell with love cause she doesn’t live here. I am soaked in blood but am still here. Heart breaks, straight faced, stressed out now feeling like I up and left you. I will be the first to say she ain’t the one you want to play with.

I said I wanted love and now am a slave to my grave, I won’t get out and I can’t quit. She menstruates weekly, her vibes covers kept me warm. The source of her heart is love and she used to be the object of my affections, God’s essence, God bless her. She made me some friends, many more resented me for writing about my life, that I should have stayed quiet. She took me to places I would have never seen without her. I doubt I’ll ever be the same, hallowed be thy name.

Transforming a Neighborhood into a Brotherhood

By
My brothers and sisters, we are only beginning. We still have a long long way to go and I would like to share with you the burden on my heart about the problems that still confront us. If I would use a subject for what I am talking about, I would call it; Transforming a neighborhood into a brotherhood . I want to try and tell you the truth; i want to speak honestly and frankly about many problems that we face in our nation and this world. I believe that freedom is the bonus we receive for telling the truth and as Jesus said, “ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set ye free”. Transforming a neighborhood into a brotherhood. Now there can be no gainsaying of the fact that Uganda has brought its people – downtrodden and rich alike - to an all inspiring threshold of the future. We have built gigantic buildings to kiss the skies, we have placed time in chains and we have curved highways midair. This is what our nation has done. What I want to say to you my friends is that when

And if my life could just rewind….

By
Without no money, no one can buy your company. Without money you alone can’t face your life story.  I couldn’t buy cornflakes; on those wet early mornings when I woke up I ate white ants and walked bare feet since I could not afford slippers. All that did not mind for me since I had a dream that I was going to achieve one way or another and cut like scissors before my soul care giver could leave me. I got a dream last night, saying am going to be large than life, I had to get convincing since I saw life as a strife and everybody who is in love is looking at love as their icon. No one taught me to make money or anything, life is all bring and everybody looked different to me. If my life could just rewind, like a piece of thread I would feel happy with the little things I had and the simple life I lived. I would respect greenwich in the meantime but now I cannot change you, you’re my life line since am sharp like knife and you should peel fine.

A Motivated Team: Are you Maslow or Machiavelli?

By
Managers and organizations have diverse philosophies about how to motivate employees and manage teams. Some seek to create cooperation and loyalty. Others rely more on the competitive spirit to get things done. And the truth is different approaches can work, but it’s important to understand what kind of work environment you’re creating with your approach. So the question is: Are you more Maslow or Machiavelli. These two paradigms are familiar to many, but they represent extremely different ways of managing people. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs tells us that people have certain requirements that have to be met before they can be truly fulfilled. In the workplace, this theory demands attending to the needs of each employee. Making enough money to live, job security, belonging to a team, excelling at a job, and doing meaningful work are all motivating factors. The idea is that if employees are happy at work, they’ll be more creative and produce more. The Machiavellian style is very diffe

What have we learnt from a 15,000 Euro Youth project support by the International Secretariat?

By
Since joining Busiki LRP, I have heard the Youth being christened all sorts of names. The one I hear most is, “the youth are the most disoriented and most tasking lot to work with”. Well, the Youth themselves vehemently disagree and usually give truck-loads of reasons for this, in their defense. There’s an adage that says, “ Never judge a book by its cover” . Young people who are jobless, sidelined, have no opportunities, are not integrated into community issues fully and have no foundational skills are a liability and a high risk to a Country. Any Country! Whilst still working on its baby steps in relation to Youth, Busiki LRP received 15,000 Euros to implement a Youth Project that focused on supported Youth to develop skills for economic self-reliance beyond formal employment. Not only empower and strategically anchor them for leadership, communication and most importantly, constitutionalism as well as outlets to identify and nurture their talents. Programmatic interventions

Theater for Development: A fresh shift from the never ending awareness & sensitization “trainings”!

By

It’s an excessively hot and dusty mid Monday morning in Namutumba District – Busiki LRP as we prepare to head off to Ivukula Sub County, one of two others within Namutumba District, in the Eastern side of Uganda. Not much comes to mind during the drive as we head to Rwatama Village not knowing that the adage “Never judge a book by its Cover” is a realization that would soon come to full sight. Community engagements are not tasks for the faint hearted. The results are not immediately realized and getting the communities to open up is an even higher huddle to overcome. As I would soon find out, this is set to change thanks to a shift from typical trainings in the village to congregational laughter, music, dance and subsequently learnings by the young and old alike! Theatre for Development (TFD) is a great vehicle of engagement in demystifying and addressing societal ills. The groups’ present plays that depict the exact house hold scenarios in most of Ugandan communities. The sce
