HOW NOT TO FLY

An aeroplane cleaner was cleaning the Pilot's cockpit, when he saw a book titled, 

"HOW TO FLY AN AEROPLANE FOR BEGINNERS (Volume 1)

He opened the first page which said: "To start the engine, press the red button...". He did so, and the airplane engine started.

He was happy and opened the next page.
"To get the airplane moving, press the blue button. 
"He did so, and the plane started moving at an amazing speed.

He wanted to fly, so he opened the third (3rd) page which said: 

To let the airplane fly, please press the green button. 

"He did so and the plane started to fly.

He was excited!

After twenty (20) minutes of flying, he was satisfied, and wanted to land, so he decided to go to the fourth (4th) page... and page four (4) says; "To be able to know how to land a plane, please purchase Volume 2 at the nearest bookshop!"

MORAL LESSON 

Never attempt anything without complete information

Half Education is not only dangerous but destructive.

   Are you married...? If Yes; Welcome to the school called marriage, A school where you will never graduate, A school without a break or a free period, A school where no one is allowed to drop out, A school which you will have to attend every day of your life, A school where there is no sick leave or holidays. A school founded by God: 1. On the foundation of love, 2. The walls are made out of trust, 3. The door made out of acceptance, 4. The windows made out of understanding, 5. The furniture made out of blessings, 6. The roof made out of faith. Before you forget, you are just a student not the Principal, God is the Principal. Even in times of storms, don't be unwise and run outside, remember this school is the safest place to be. Never go to sleep before completing your assignments for the day. Never forget the C-word, Communicate, communicate to your classmate and also communicate to the Principal. If you find out something in your classmate (spouse) that you do not appreci...

THE NOVEMBER-DECEMBER HOLIDAY

              THE NOVEMBER- DECEMBER HOLIDAY We are on holiday  But I guess it's better to say my learners are on holiday .The school broke for the Nov-Dec holidays sometimes back,to be precise it was the second last week of October. Everyone was happy on that particular day . One person wasn't as jovial as the others.She is a mentally disturbed woman who spends her midday at the school.Her presence has never been an issue to the school. She always selects a nice spot .Her usually spot is near the kitchen.After arriving, mostly during mid morning break, she is served  a cup of warm porridge  She takes the porridge and waits for lunch later in the day. Today she's aware that she just had her last meal on the school's bill. She has to come up with an idea where her tomorrow's meal will come from. That thought alone seems to make her sick. My learners are a happy lot. In my closing ceremony that took place inside my class,I took time t...

10 PM THOUGHTS

When God shuts the door and builds your capacity. This week after a very long and I mean very long delay something I have been waiting for for several months has come through. Well, truth be told, waiting is not easy. Truth be told, there is nothing as hard as being told " come next week" and you are under pressure. However, every time I go through these kinds of delays I always reflect back on incidences in my life and in the lives of others... Incidences that saw Open doors lead to unmitigated disaster. There are different types of delays, the delay caused by forces of darkness that want to embarrass and harm you. Delays caused by your own laziness and lack of zeal and delay caused by God the Almighty Himself, closing doors in order to help you build capacity to handle what is on the other side. It is important to discern the difference. Today, as I reflect on the huge delay I went through since June last year and what I went through.... I thank God for the training. It wa...
