When the kings of the road are crossing, the driver must find alternative ways to pass otherwise, you can wait for more than 30mins just so they can cross.

Why carry a pistol in the first place?
Would he have actually shot those roadside vendors if they didn't move?

As you climb up, do not cut the branches that helped you climb. You may need those branches to hold you on your way down. This world can be so unpredictable.

You will hear them saying "I fear married men, I fear married women" but before you know it, they have either impregnated married a woman or pregnant for a married man.

Why won't you be pregnant for a married man when you are most of the time seen with the married man you fear, why won't you impregnate a married woman when you are the one always calling to check on the married woman you fear?

You are the one who asks the same married man to take you out, you are the one who always offers your company to the married woman. You are the one missing the company of the married person when he/she decides to spend time with his/her family. You are the one always in the inbox of the married man/woman asking what are your plans for the weekend.

You even pretend to care about the person's family, you start asking how is your husband, how are your wife and children -trying to paint yourself white in the eyes of the married person.

Hypocrites should have a special association registered for us to identify them easily, nonetheless, we already know them through their actions and pretences.

Please respect people's marriages and homes. That's living a dignified life.

How will you be remembered when you leave the area you are staying in now?

How prepared are you to face the consequences of the decisions you make today?

Sometimes we make decisions without knowing what the outcome will be. Some decisions are risks and if we are not prepared for the outcomes, we become shattered if those outcomes turn out negative.

For every decision you make, be sure to weigh both possibilities and put in place mechanisms on how you will handle the situation if the result is negative. This will save you from an emotional breakdown.

Only the disciplined ones are free in life, if you are indisciplined, you are a slave to your moods, mind or feelings.

For you to have that self-discipline, you must learn how to control your emotions.

Sometimes our feelings and emotions can overpower us and we become unable to make sound decisions. We begin to behave differently than our usual selves. We even sometimes transform our frustrations onto other people. We become aggressive and uncontrollable.

If you have trained your mind to stay calm in stressful situations, it will not disappoint you at those particular times. It will help you have that self-control that will enable you to reflect on what happened and make the right decision that will come from the heart.

Imagine you are in a tree 🌳 when a big storm ⛈️ comes. You'll be blown around if you are on the branches, but if you get to the ground quickly, you can look after yourself and others while the storm passes.

That is why you must train your mind to stay calm and disciplined during stressful situations (the storm) because those you transfer your anger to, will also be blown away by your reactions and may not be there when the storm is over.

Long post alert:

I know I will probably add on the number of my enemies because of this but I will write it anyway and if I offend anyone in this writing, I apologize in advance.

The audience for this, is mainly the Zande society. Non-Zande can also share how they mourn in their different cultures. Together we can change our community as we also preserve our culture.

Azande funerals of today.

I have not attended many Zande overnight funerals but the few I have gone to, I come back in the morning wondering if I had gone to a funeral or a club. I ask myself; did we go to mourn the deceased/support the grieving family or to have fun all through the night. What I have witnessed in funeral overnights is indeed a cultural shock to me.

When I was growing up, I used to see that funeral places were the saddest places to be at, people went there only to mourn and support the family and friends who had lost their loved one.

But it is different today, especially here in Juba. You will find all sorts of ungodly and disrespectful things happening:
First, there is this group of people who never sit closer to where the body lies in-state, they are there to meet their friends whom they have not seen for long, to match make or catch up with lost times. They sit at the exit/entry points telling stories as they wait for morning to come.

Another group is busy drinking their hearts out in the name of passing time so that morning can find them awake. (I thought the tea and coffee served at funerals were meant for this purpose)

Then there are the dancers who are there to showcase their talents (so I would say). Funeral dances were peaceful demonstrating the sorrow people are going through for the loss of a loved one, but these days coupled with sound system technology ("organ" as is referred to by natives) and influence of alcohol, people become wild and dance like they are in a night club -you may think it is a dancing competition.

What hurts me is that all these happen when the body is in-state (when the body is there in our midst). I ask myself what respect we are sending this person off with? What support did we come to give the grieving family if we are only there to make up for lost times, drink and dance?

Then you hear things like "if you want people to be at your funeral, you must allow all these things to happen, otherwise people will sleep." We used to mourn our people with "kpata kurutu" (beating of old Jerrycan to produce a special sound symbolizing a mourning mood), yet people still used to stay awake all through the night.

Others will say, "we are celebrating the life of the deceased," I thought in the Zande culture, the period for serious mourning is two days, then on the third day, that's when we celebrate the life of this person or sometimes after 40 days when the wounds left behind are somehow starting to heal. That is why there was something called "karama", this was the time people indeed celebrated the life of the deceased while remembering the life he/she lived. Why then must we do it on the day when the body is still in our midst? As if we are happy that this person has left us. There should be a difference in mourning when the body is in our midst and after burial.

Elders and church leaders must act on this before we lose what identifies us when it comes to mourning and think we are moving with modernization.

How are you teaching people to treat you?

07/05/2021

Independence is a very important aspect of life.

Once you allow people to make decisions for things that concerns your life, then you will never find the peace of mind you need.

People will also come up with things that don't go with your values, as long as the decisions suits their interests and you are ready to make those things happen thinking you are making them happy, you are denying yourself the true meaning of Independence.

Why would you allow fellow human beings direct your path in life? Each and every individual must have principles that define them from the rest. They must have their limits, know when to say "YES" and when to say "NO"

Not everyone will value the sacrifices you make for them so long as their goals have been achieved, most of them will only be happy because you helped them out in that particular situation.

When you have an independent mind, you will be able to make independent decisions that also suits your principles and interests.
