Hope, An Expensive Commodity (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Hope is when you can see something where nothing tangible exists. It is hope that drives men and women to the day of tomorrow with such confidence that cannot be shaken. It is hope that drives us forth to fathom an endless world. Whereas others are dreaming of such things as betterment and a future of bliss, there are a few who have dared to harness the hope of others to bring themselves riches of untold magnitude.
Greek mythology narrates how hope came about. The first woman on Earth, not Eve of course, but Pandora, was given a box by the gods which she was not to open under any circumstance. Well, you can guess what she did, too curious to resist the temptation, she opened it, and all the evils of the world flew out: hate, pain, destructiveness, and starvation. When Pandora saw what she had done, she closed the box before the last thing in the box could escape. That last thing was hope. Seems hope is the human weapon against the probabilities of adversity!
We are always hoping for a better future, an indicator that this present is not the best that we could have. No one is content; adversity is the park of man's walk. Then really, hope has nothing to do with money. It's not merely a wish that things will get better tomorrow, but an actual belief, even when there may be no evidence that anything will change or even when the available evidence as a cloud is in the hands of the divine. Hope can encompass a wide variety of beliefs it cuts across society, from the young rich man in the pent house of a city to the Bedouin herding his camels and sheep in the night up high in the mountains of the semi-arid lands of the Middle East

Autorenporträt

Will Anthony Jr. is currently the Chairman of the Uasin Gishu County Land Control Board which caters for over one million people. Before this stint, he worked in other capacities with the National government. He has also been lecturer in three religious institutions, a service to the youth to gather knowledge from the aging population. In his life time, Will Anthony Jr. says he has met a lot of people and can unflinchingly say that he loved most of them. Why most of them? Well, it is a tall order to love everyone you meet! Will Anthony Jr. has written several e-books touching on diverse subjects that relate to society. The books extensively cover human social and economic practices and this is so because expertise in one field in Africa can become a drudgery according to his practical view. His perception is that if you were born in Africa and the continent is your aboriginal home, you are likely to have English as your second language (ESL). Sometimes it could even be a third language. For him, he had to learn his mother tongue then learn both English and Swahili simultaneously. He went to his pre-primary bare foot, later he joined the local primary school 5 Km away and had to trek barefoot again not because his parents could not buy him shoes but because cobblers were a rare find. That journey was a daily toil of 10 Km, 5 days in a week or ~270 days yearly for 7 years. With a smirk he says that when you achieve a PhD in Africa, then You have done Plenty of hard Digging (PhD) or you have a Permanent head Damage (PhD) and you might end up in a ditch because your IQ cannot contain the booze like the local fellas!
"Why did the English colonize Africa?" To keep the African languages in Czech (check), and he says that one must forgive this pun. But besides the pun, English has broken both social and economic barriers of the once "dark continent" whose forefathers slaved the white farms and firms to lace the pockets of their Lords.
A PhD holder in Africa will still practice other 'trades' though they maybe 'very' learned because poverty is shameless, one has to draw bounds through plenty of smart work or else, it will be a shame to steal so as to maintain class.
He published a book in 1992, but the publisher coned him , he took her to court and the case aged in judicial corridors for 12 years. He then made a decision to abandon the matter and to forget about writing books. However, Self publishing made him to change that decision. More tha...
