My Mother Mary Terry and my late uncle Rtd-major K.B.Charlie, have stood out in my view and approach to life. There is always more in what they have taught me.Sometimes more than what i needed to know then. In their humility and wisdom I have learned lots of virtues that have guided me through life. To live with an open mind and expect nothing.View life positively and accept life as is then choose to live with it or to do somethig to change it....
Reading of the childhood experience of the worlds best known neurosurgeon,Ben Solomon Carson has enabled me to pedal through life knowing that as he did i also can make it.Ive come to believe that nothing is impossible.I know that as a reader i'll soon become a leader,because knowledge is power.
My Dad had to bring out the reality of life to me. What I saw when I was young, he could go to work at around 5:00am in the morning and could come back at around 12:00am.That was too much for me, because he never had time to me. But at the end of it I could enjoy my child hood, this has enable me to work hard, and I believe in hardwork.
I dont believe in role models i have made myself to be what i am today and i dont have to believe in anyone to make me be who i want to be tommorrow. but i admire anyone who believes makes himself to be what he want to be. lke our former president mandela
I have so many role models, I cant name all of them so I'll just pick one. Micheal Jordan because he becam the best basketballer after not being selected in the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th grade to be on the basketball team for the school but he was still determined and came back every year for try outs and worked on his in 11th grade was when finally selected and from then on he started building his rep. for the best player that has ever stepped on a basketball court so like he toght me to be dtermined and keep trying even if I dont get it the 1st time.
My role model is Mbuvi (gospel singer) bacause he gets motivated and compelled by daily circumstances like when his mother died he was touched to an extent of composing asong which made him a star.Since then he has achieved alot by being used by God to touch peoples souls and is earning aliving with the same.Our minds should be renewed by the same to work harder belive in ourselves work harder and help those who are perishing around us like drought flood or aids victims around us.
my role model is my mother and this is because she has single handedly given me a better life even in the absence of my father after his death. it was never easy bringing up children especially girls in a poor semi urban setting but she never gave up even up to now she is still very strong and supportive
I don't realy have a role model but there are some people who inspire me for example;Lil wayne,T.I.e.t.c.They give me an idea of what i want to be in the future.I like rapping and composing songs,I would like to be a rapper some day and am working hard towards achieving that.
My role model is Will Smith.He is a very good Actor.I want to be an Actor one day.He makes acting look easy and fun and this really motivates me and this makes me work hard towards achieving my dream.
I know the story of a certain artist who was a housegirl before her employer urged her to take her music to the studio and have it produced by a proffessional. Right now the housegirl is smiling all the way to bank. She lives off of her music. She is married and recently got her second child. A true Kenyan icon. Listening to her music they depict humility naivety and kindness. I don't want to be a musician but when it comes down to the qualities i would rather possess i think humility would take me very far. Nyota Ndogo is the epitome of everything simple and Kudos to her.... she inpires me I dont beleive in limiting myself to just one role model. There is one more person in my life who inspires me and reminds me of my days as a kid. When i was a free spirit kindred soul gloriously happy and ready to say exactly what i felt and how i felt it. When i had no secrets no fears and absolutely no worries. The person has brought the idea of black and white back and with him there is no in between. I feel young again which is a place we should all be in...... F.M. you are my other one true role model. you are teaching me a whole bunch of things. Am truly honoured...
Role models are very important in our lives. In my life my parents have all along inspired me to the best i can. I admire my mums strength and my dads freespirit attitude. Both have moulded me into an all-rounded woman who has experienced all extremes in life. My younger brother too inpires me to be grown up and responsible coz he seems to have it together all the time. I have people who i admire front, back, left, right and center. I have no shortage of teachers nor lessons. Its a good life...
The concept of 'role model' can be very liberating and imprisoning at the same time. Let's interrogate teh idea of a role model; it is a person or persons on whom yu model the way that you play a certain role in life. In effect one cannot have a role model when doing nothing. There is no role model when no role is being played. It is imporant that as we think about life we need to position ourself on the 'doing' scale and use models to inspire us to be better in teh roles we already engage in. One cannot pretend to have a modle when they are not modelling themselves to do anything. The most important thing is to initiate ACTION perform a role and then seek inspiration to scale greater heights.
ABILA YOUTH CLUB was founded by W.K. joseph (Nak)under the umbrella of Abila Creative Center, which is a community based organization that facilitates skills exchange to the community with youths women and children in focus . This youth club was formed with the intent of serving as an example to other youth and community groups that ACC works with. It also serves as an anchor to hold young people together. The hope is that the youth involved will question, share and teach each other about the issues that affect their day to day life within their local setting. The youth within Mamboleo, like many other african communities have been clouded with the belief that the only way to escape their misfortunes is to be aided by someone from the west. This idea cripples their inate potential. This club forum aims to allow people to tap into their potential and to share and exchange their ideas with people from around the world. Feel free to share your ideas, thoughts and opinions...enjoy
