Why I Am So Tired!!! 

For a couple of years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep, not enough sunshine, too much pressure from my job, earwax build-up, poor blood or anything else I could think of. 

But now I found out the real reason: 

I'm tired because I'm overworked. 

Here's why: The population of this country is 273 million. 

140 million are retired, which leaves 133 million to do the work. 

There are 85 million in school, which leaves 48 million to do the work. 

Of this, there are 29 million employed by the federal government,  which leaves 19 million to do the work. 

2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Bin Laden, which leaves 16.2 million to do the work. 

Take from that total the 14,800,000 people 

who work for state and city governments   

and that leaves 1.4 million to do the work. 

At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals, which leaves 1,212,000 to do the work. 

As of today, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons. 

That leaves JUST TWO PEOPLE to do the work... 

YOU and ME!!

And there you are sitting on your chair, at your computer, your tab, your phone reading jokes and celebrity gist and sports news.   

Nice, real nice...

God bless you.

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...

August Theme

Our thematic issues for this month is #NextGeneration We urge us in love to pick one of the issues under our theme for the month and help share messages, videos, pictures and matters for discussion and action plans under any of the issues. Let's dig deep into the concept of preparing the next generation of leaders, professionals, members of the society among others, which comes from God Himself right from creation and see how it improves acts of charity and social development. Humanity has survived since creation because intentional efforts have been made to prepare for generations to generations. Families birth those who'd constitute the next generation. If we don't prepare the next generation, we'd have a retrogressive situation which is highly preventable. #NextGeneration #August TLF 💚
