WHO IS YOUR LIFE PARTNER?

Image
Mom? Dad? Wife? Son? Husband? Daughter? Friends? Not at all! Your real-life partner is you r body. Once ur body stops to responding no one is with you. You and your body stay together from birth till death. What you do to your body is your responsibility and that will come back to you  The more you care for your body, the more your body will care for you What you eat, what you do for being fit. How you deal with stress, how much rest you give it; will decide how your body going to respond. Remember, your body is the only permanent address where you live. Your body is your asset/liability, which no one else can share. Your body is your responsibility. Because you're the real-life partner. Be fit. Take care of yourself. Money comes and goes. Relatives and friends are not permanent. Remember, no one can help your body other than you  Pranayama - for Lungs Meditation - for Mind Yoga - for Body Walking - for Heart Good food - for Intestines Good thoughts - f...

SILENT TREATMENT

Image
A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment.  The next week the man realized that he would need his wife to wake him at 5.00 am for an early morning business flight to Mombasa. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence, he finally wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5.00 am." The next morning the man woke up, only to discover it was 9.00am, and that he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't woken him when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed. It said 'It is 5.00am; wake up

A SWAHILI MAN TAKES ALL

Image
A white man and a Swahili man are sitting next to each other on a long flight. The white man is thinking that the Swahili people are so dumb and that he can get one over on them easily so he asks the Swahili to play a fun game.  The swahili man is tired and j wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and tries to catch a few winks. The white fellow persists and says the game is very interesting. "I'll ask you a question and if you don't know the answer you pay me only KES 100. You ask me one and if I don't know the answer I will give you 100 USD". This catches the Swahili man's attention and to keep the white quiet he agrees to play the game. The white asks the question, "What's the distance from the Earth to the Moon?" The swahili doesn't say a word reaches in his pocket pulls KES 500 and hands to the White. Now it is the Swahili's turn. He asks the White, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"  The...

DUNIA MAPITO

Kuna familia ya mjomba wangu imeishia pabaya sana. Najitahidi kuamini vinginevyo lakini akili yangu inaniambia ni laana. Mjomba wangu alikuwa ni msomi wa Ph.D na alikuwa na pesa kama uchafu. Majumba, magari na miradi mingine kibao. Alikuwa na mke na watoto watano wa kike wawili na wa kiume watatu.   Watoto wote walikuwa wamesoma shule za maana, namaanisha za maana sio za umma ila shule za maana za kimataifa ambazo hata watoto wa mabwenyenye wangesoma bila shida. Vyuo baadhi yao wamesoma nchi za ng'ambo. Mjomba alikuwa ni mtu mwenye upendo na alisaidia sana ndugu zake. Kiukweli alikuwa ni mtu ambaye ametoboa sana kimaisha ukilinganisha na ndugu zake wengine wa ukoo mzima.   Baadaye aliugua afya yake ikazorota sana na akili zikawa kama zimeruka kidogo (sio sana). Mkewe na watoto wake hawakumjali. Kila alilowaambia hawakumsikiliza akawa hana thamani tena. Huwezi amini mfanyakazi wa kiume wa nyumbani alimtunza na kumjali kuliko mkewe na kizazi chake.  Kuna siku wa...

7 LIFE LESSONS FROM A PENCIL.

Image
I'm like a little pencil in God's able hands.  He does the writing. The pencil has nothing to do with it.  1. What’s truly important, lies within you. 2. Never forget the hand that guides you. 3. Just like pencil, have a firm grip on life. Too much pressure can break it. 4. Like eraser, remove all your mistakes and rewrite your story. 5. Unless you go through painful sharpening, the best within you will never come out. 6. Unless what is within you comes out, you cannot make an impact.  Our personality can impress, but being a genuine person can inspire. 7. The outside of pencil is beautiful, wooden casing and inside is a substance i.e lead.  Similarly, we have outside, our looks, personality, our valuables and inside i.e. our morals, characters, values.

VISANGA VYA JOHN SANGA

John Sanga alikuwa mwanafunzi mwenye kipaji cha uchoraji. Siku moja alichora noti ya shilingi elfu kumi kwenye sakafu darasani.  Mwalimu alipoingia darasani aliiona noti ile na, katika kuikimbilia ile hela kuiokota akajikwaa na kuvunjika pua. Akauliza wanafunzi 'Nani aliyechora hapo chini? . Wanafunzi wote wakamtaja John. Mwalimu akaamua kumpigia simu baba yake John (Mzee Sanga). Mzee Sanga akapokea simu akiwa hospitalini kalazwa ,mwalimu akamwelezea makosa ya mwanae ,Mzee Sanga akamwambia mwalimu ;afadhali yako wewe umepasuka pua hujalazwa ,huyo mbwa jana kachora uchi wa mwanamke kwenye soketi ya umeme. Je, Msee Sanga unahisi aliumia wapi?

1. The inventor of the of the treadmill died at the age of 54 2. The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57 3. The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41 4. The best footballer in the world Maradona, died at the age of 60. BUT 5. The KFC inventor died at 94. 6. Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88 7. Imagine, cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102 8. The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 in an earthquake 9. Hennessey inventor dies at 98. How did these doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life? The rabbit is always jumping up and down but it lives for only 2 years and the turtle that doesn’t exercise at all, lives 400 years. So, Take some rest, Chill, stay cool, eat, drink and enjoy your life.

"The angry man is aiming at what he can attain, and the belief that you will attain your aim is pleasant.” —Aristotle Anger has a negative reputation when compared to positive emotions such as happiness, enthusiasm, and hope. Perhaps the lack of respect for anger is rooted in social, cultural, and religious reasons, as well as the obvious manifestation of its often destructive outcomes, such as aggression and violence. In fact, many believe we would be better off without anger as an emotion. However, more and more social and evolutionary psychologists, brain scientists, and mental health professionals are suggesting anger has valuable qualities and can be beneficial to the human condition. From an evolutionary perspective, all emotions are appropriate in certain circumstances when experienced at an optimal degree, providing the resources to effectively operate toward a desired goal. For example, certain levels of stress and anxiety push us to perform at a high level. S...

THE MAN

Image
Man wakes up in a slum with no memory of how he got there. He wanders around aimlessly before he finds even one person who will talk to him. Some ratty beggar on the street turns out to be nice enough to explain where he is. "You're in the afterlife!" he tells the man, "But you must have been a real shithead when you were alive, because this is the fourth ring, and only the worst people come here." All of a sudden, a siren goes off, one of those air-raid things. The man is terrified but the beggar gets up calmly and leads him to a big, dilapidated warehouse where thousands of other similarly unkempt souls are gathering. When the man asks why they're all here, the beggar points to a line of folding tables against the wall. Each table has some moldy bread, cups of dingy water, and some bowls of broth so thin they could have just run out of cups. Only then does the man realize how hungry he is. A guard in heavy body armor blows a whistle and all the...

MGAO WA MALI

Kesi ya Mirathi ilipelekwa mahakamani huko Voi. Kijana wa miaka 20 alikuwa anataka kupewa mgao wake wa mali za marehemu baba yake. Ni kweli alikuwa na mgao wake, ila mjane wa marehemu, ambaye ni mama yake mzazi, alikuwa anamuona bado mdogo kuweza kumiliki mali nyingi kiasi kile. Marehemu alikuwa ameacha magari na nyumba kadhaa. Basi yule kijana baada ya kuona mama yake hataki kumpa mgao wake akafungua kesi Mahakamani. Kufika mahakamani Hakimu akamuuliza yule kijana: "Unamtambua huyu Mwanamke?" Kijana Akajibu: "Ndiyo. Ni Mama yangu Mzazi." Na mama akaulizwa, "Unamtambua Huyu Kijana?" Mama akajibu,: "Ndio ni Mwanangu wa Kumzaa." Hakimu akamuuliza yule Kijana: "Kijana, Eleza Mahakama Madai Yako ni Yepi?" Kijana akajibu: "Madai yangu nina taka nikabidhiwe mgao wangu wa mali za marehemu baba. Ila Mama nimemwambia amegoma kunipa." Mama akaulizwa na Hakimu: "Unasemaje Kuhusu Haya Madai ya huyu Kijana!?"

Hello there....!  Take a look in these mathematics of life carefully...; IF:r A = 1   B = 2  C = 3   D = 4; E = 5   F = 6; G = 7   H = 8; I = 9   J = 10   K = 11   L = 12 M = 13   N = 14  O = 15   P = 16 Q = 17  R = 18  S = 19   T = 20  U = 21   V = 22  W = 23   X = 24 Y = 25  Z = 26.``` Therefore; ```H+A+R+D+W+O+R+K =8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 =98% K+N+O+W+L+E+D+G+E =11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 =96% L+O+V+E = 12+15+22+5  = 54% L+U+C+K; =12+21+3+ 11 = 47% None of them makes 100%.

  Three contractors . . . one Luo another Luhya land the third Kikuyu are bidding to repair the Ikulu fence. They go with a one of Ikulu official to examine the fence. The Luhya contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says. "I figure the job will run KES 100,000,000 . . . 40,000,000 for materials, 40,000,000 for labour and 20,000,000 profit for me."

  Festus loved reading. He was a voracious reader. He normally borrowed books from his friends and classmates but they soon ran out of books to give him because he had read all. Festus turned to the local bookstore down the street. The storekeeper gave him books for a very low price and after he was done reading them, he would return them to collect another. Soon, Festus read everything the bookstore had to offer. He had read all the books in the shelves. Saddened by the fact that he won’t be getting any new books soon, he confronted the owner to see if he had anything else, to see if he had any book remaining. The owner of the bookstore thought for a minute, and then said, “Yes, I think I do. Wait here!” The man entered the small room at the back of the bookstore. When he emerged, he had an old, big book with him. The book looked as if it hasn’t been read for a while because it was covered in thick dust. The man dusted the cover of the book with a rag, and then he showed it to Fes...

KING OF ENGLISH

Image
I take it you already know Of tough and bough and cough and dough? Others may stumble, but not you, On hiccough, thorough, slough and through. Beware of heard, a dreadful word, That looks like beard but sounds like bird. And dead: It is said like bed, not bead -- For goodness' sake, don't call it deed! Watch out for meat and great and threat… They rhyme with suite and straight and debt. A moth is not the moth in mother, Nor both in bother, nor broth in brother. And here is not a match for there, Nor dear and fear for bear and pear, And then there's dose and rose and lose -- Just look them up -- and goose and choose. And cork and work and card and ward, And font and front and word and sword. And do and go, then thwart and cart, Come, come, I've hardly made a start! A dreadful language? Why, sakes alive! I would learned to speak it when I was five. And yet, to write it, the more I tried, I hadn't learned it at fifty-five

NO PERFECT TIME

There will NEVER be a perfect time to do anything. Life is about doing the things that are important to you as soon as you can: There will never be a perfect time to buy a house. There will never be a perfect time to get married. There will never be a perfect time to break up. There will never be a perfect time to have children. There will never be a perfect time to get divorced. There will never be a perfect time to invest. There will never be a perfect time to change jobs. There will never be a perfect time to go back to school. There will never be a perfect time to read your children a story. There will never be a perfect time to save for retirement. There will never be a perfect time to take that vacation. There will never be a perfect time to play with your dog. There will never be a perfect time to start exercising. There will never be a perfect time to get your oil changed. There will never be a perfect time to live. There will never be a perfect time to die.

 It was the first day of a school in USA and a new Sri Lankan student named Chandrasekhar Subramanian entered the fourth grade. The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American History. Who said "Give me Liberty , or give me Death" ? She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Chandrasekhar, who had his hand up: " Patrick Henry , 1775" he said. "Very good!" Who said " A Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth?" Again, no response except from Chandrasekhar. " Abraham Lincoln , 1863" said Chandrasekhar. The teacher snapped at the class, "Class, you should be ashamed. Chandrasekhar, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do." She heard a loud whisper: "**** the Indians," "Who said that?" she demanded. Chandrasekhar put his hand up. "General Custer, 1862." At that point, a student in the back said, ...

KINDERGARTEN CLASS

 A kindergarten teacher one day is trying to explain to her class the definition of the word “definitely.” To make sure the students have a good understanding of the word, she asks them to use it in a sentence. The first student raises his hand and says, “The sky is definitely blue.” The teacher says, “Well, that isn’t entirely correct, because sometimes it’s gray and cloudy.” Another student says, “Grass is definitely green.” The teacher again replies, “If grass doesn’t get enough water, it turns brown, so that isn’t really correct either.” Another student raises his hand and asks the teacher, “Do farts have lumps?” The teacher looks at him and says, “No, but that isn’t really question you want to ask in class discussion.” So the student replies, “Then I’ve definitely shit in my pants.”

OFFICIAL LANGUAGE

 The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.  As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".  In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.  In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.  Governments will enkourage ...

An 80 year old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45 years old highly educated son. Suddenly a crow perched on their window. The Father asked his Son, 'What is this?' The Son replied, 'It is a crow'. After a few minutes, the Father asked his Son the 2nd time, 'What is this?' The Son said, 'Father, I have just now told you 'It's a crow'. After a little while, the old Father again asked his Son the 3rd time, what is this?' At this time some expression of irritation was felt in the Son's tone when he said to his Father with a rebuff. 'It's a crow, A CROW'. A little after, the Father again asked his Son t he 4th time, 'What is this?' This time the Son shouted at his Father, 'Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times 'IT IS A CROW'. Are you not able to understand this?' A little later the Father went to his room and ca...

FIRST BORNS INCREDIBLE TRAITS

 First born are special, they come with a lot of responsibility because they are looked up by their parent and siblings.  There are many expectations that parent demands from their first born, because they are regarded as the future head of the family, the one that will assumed the role of parent to their younger siblings when their parents is no more. First born exhibit some traits  because they have be trained by their parents and they are aware of their responsibilities as the first born.  Let look at what you may not know about first borns. 1) They have leadership traits.

Make the pleasure of doing it greater than the pleasure of not doing it. Luck Razor: • If stuck with 2 equal options, pick the one that feels like it will produce the most luck later down the line.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE

Have you ever wondered why foreigners have trouble with the English Language? Let's face it... English is a stupid language. There is no egg in the eggplant No ham in the hamburger. And neither pine nor apple in the pineapple. English muffins were not invented in England French fries were not invented in France. We sometimes take English for granted. But if we examine its paradoxes we find that: Quicksand takes you down slowly. Boxing rings are square And a guineapig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. If writers write, how come fingers don't fing. If the plural of tooth is teeth Shouldn't the plural of phone booth be phone beeth If the teacher taught, Why didn't the preacher praught. If a vegetarian eats vegetables What the heck does a humanitarian eat!? Why do people recite at a play Yet play at a recital? Park on driveways and Drive on parkways You have to marvel at the unique lunacy Of a language where a house can burn up as It burns down. And in whi...

RECEDING HAIRLINE

There was an old man who lived by a forest. As he grew older and older, he started losing his hair, until one day, on his deathbed, he was completely bald. That day, he called his children to a meeting... He said, "Look at my hair. It used to be so magnificent, but it's completely gone now. My hair can't be saved. But look outside at the forest. It's such a lovely forest with so many trees, but sooner or later they'll all be cut down and this forest will look as bald as my hair." "What I want you to do..." the man continued. "Is, every time a tree is cut down or dies, plant a new one in my memory. Tell your descendants to do the same. It shall be our family's duty to keep this forest strong." So they did. Each time the forest lost a tree, the children replanted one, and so did their children, and their children after them. And for centuries, the forest remained as lush and pretty as it once was, all because of one man and his re-seeding...
