By Dr.Paul Bundi Karau Nothing brings out our humanity like simple acts of kindness, especially those done with no hope of reward. All of us have been recipients of kindness, and we know how deep, how joyous, how good it feels. A random act of kindness invokes our deepest spirits and makes us feel like humans, valued by God and man.  For this reason, we should always strive to show kindness as much as possible.  When I started Oregon Health Services, Tarsila was among the first patients who came. She recounted how her prayers had been answered. She suffered a catalog of chronic problems, and prayed for someone who could walk the journey with her.  I decided to adopt her, and there and then, promised her of my support. I exempted her from all fees, including drugs and laboratory tests.  She told me she thought she had birthed another son, and from that day, she essentially became my other mother. Todate I have over 10 of such. She would pray and fast for me. And whenever she visits me,

History is the realest and simplest way of making us more human, satient beings with a belonging. By reconnecting with the past, we understand who we are, and where we go. It is Sir Winston Churchill, the bellicose triumphalist, who once said that "pondering upon the past enables a new generation to repair some of the errors of yester years, and forge ahead..thus, the further backward you look, the further forward you see." By sitting and reminiscing on past successes and failures, joys and tribulations, hits and misses, mistakes and triumphs, we become more human, relate better and derive inexplicable joy and satisfaction. Yesterday, I sat down for several hours with my aunt, Jennifer, as I reminded her of whence we come from, and her indelible contribution at a time of need. She was left in tears to realize that I've not forgotten the role she played in our lives during the heady and stormy 90s, when lack ruled our lives. She was then a dashing yellow beauty, trapped in

Karama Ward has upper & lower zone, for the past few months I have devoted myself to coming up with strategic initiatives that can improve living standards of lower zone.  Midst so many challenges, The area has experienced constant drought and famine over the time.This has greatly affected school going children to a level they have to quit schools for herding, leaving empty classrooms, for the few left in school their performance has been trolling day by day making Karama the poorest performing division in terms of education.  The only sure transformational matrix that can and will see our society grow is through constant investment in young generation through education, as long as this one is not achieved we live to fight "unseen demons"  To address these concerns in my little ways, after continuous engagement with the affected school Management and the parents I have formulated and came up with a sustainable feeding Program for all class eight pupils in Luthie Primary S

By Dr Bundi Karau Teachers, please answer me. I have been to many schools, and I always ask students what time they do their own private reading. It seems times have changed. In almost all schools, remedial teaching starts very early, sometimes before 5am. In some schools, even the short break after lunch is taken up for teaching. This goes on at night, and teachers sign off at 9pm. Over weekends, you hear of maths or chemistry hour, and all the Saturday and Sundays are spent with teachers. The syllabus is covered very early, but these students will not have a moment to reflect on their own lives and improve on their own. During our days, and it's long time ago, most of these hours were spent alone. Those who could improve did so on their own. We figured our own ways, and I saw guys do a good job at it. Pray, if this be the trend, when does someone realize I'm not good in something and I need my own time and effort to sort it out? And in the end, won't we bring forth a gen
