Reflections

i have not written for the past weeks not because i do not want but sometimes you have to give up on somethings to gain others.i have been busy with the women empowerment project and we are trying to set up some project that are sustainable . Very soon they are going to start a micro-lending initiative of their own, call it a small Grameen Bank. You dont know how a bank intimidates a rural woman and the fear of borrowing money from the bank but they are so excited with this idea and i cant wait to get it running.I have been thinking of what drives me to do certain things for people and i realized its not because of me but it is the passion and compassion that God put inside me.i have seen how love can even change the hardest of people and yah! some times it frustrating especially when you can not accept the facts about life .i have also realized that i have responsibilities now and yah! its time to grow up , thats the way things run in africa, we grow up so early and the troubles of life wear you out so much but am not complaining .
