its true, issues like poverty, unemployment and ignorance are not going away tommorrow. living in constant contact with them is harsh enough to cause trauma or negative attitude towards living. i believe through my selfless devotion to service at all opportunities given to me is a good enough to affect change in any community if properly put to use.

Issues that affect changes are poverty, corruption, lack of empowerment of youths and women .I believe through enlightening the youths and women on their rights that would have a great affect change in the community. I believe that is the only way I can empower youth and women to fight poverty and corruption.

comin from the U.S. kind of gave me a different perspactive of life i mean there was a sence pverty but the gov king of heped and the youth and women had a say over there gov and community. So like I think it will get there but its gna take time and the homeless dont have time.Neither do the women and youth being abused in any way.

By making people realize that when we talk about poverty it is in the brain of people we need to relibarate our self before thinking to ask some one to do so. Let the people work for first their own benefit then the community later To help people realize that everything is possible even when everybody has given up.The help of this community lies in the hand of the community it self nothing shall come from ut to help us change and live in this challenging world.

being born and brought up in has me to know through experience how to deal with the same.The first instrument i have engaged to keep me going is the communication.It doesn't matter how smart you are, if you can't communicate well you are bound to make it to nowhere.so for me to affect a change i have had to communicate all-round and about, God given the first priority everyday.
The second most important instrument i have used and continue to use in order to affect a change is work.It has come to my understanding that people can reject me,but they won't deny my work,so I've had to be diligent enough.My diligence has earned me marks wherever i go to.So i use Communication and diligence to affect a change.

we should avoid too much idleness and look for employment to satisfy our wants, hence play a role model in the society and nation wide.

change is something that is not effected overnight..it is a gradual and conscious effort that is sustained over a long period of time..the question to ask is what does one want to change? what can one change?..it is usually very normal for people to point out others' mistakes and base their perceptions of change on these mistakes..for example when there is a lot of garbage in the streets and in the community, the municipal council/local authority is vilified and change is seen as removing them from office! but i feel that change in this case should be individualistic..in the sense that can i as an individual in that community stop littering and also influence others through example, not to litter? that, in my opinion is the most sustainable and practical way of effecting change

You know chnage is something that happwns withing a lap of an eye, withing atwinkle of eye.And i can give an exaple of changing my destination on where i was supposed to be going, but remember there are some flubagarsting issues or other proverbs that mistakes are there for humanbeings that still one can change or carrput away from it not unless ready for example from my point of view i can change the face of may community by starting a small youth club share opinions interact and come out with what is called civilazing the community to know about the disease out breaks apart from the most known one AIDS, but others too.

Thats All

change is note quite a bad thing,in fact i personally love change.it depends on how swift you are on different grounds of this particular issue.For me i like going to many places cause of changes a bit on the monotony side,if you take it positively.Also some ain't good cause you alone may not know what be falls ahead.Me i know that when you didn't like the type of change you have made ,then take it as a mistake then relocate yourself.Remember a mistake is always a mistake so then play things cool cause it's the mistake that has mistaken the mistake.BE an adventure for change and you will know the beauty that lies beneath it.
