01 December 2008: World Aids Day




Aids was known to be "the gay disease" because it was first discovered that in humans people who had it were gay couples.

The history of HIV/AIDS goes a long way far back in ancient history, back in those days people did not know about Aids or even now some still don’t know the history of the disease.

Question mostly asked: Where does AIDS come from?... according to history and Science the virus comes from HIV and HIV comes from ….Monkeys!

Believe it or not! In the olden days for people to survive they had to hunt and they would hunt chimpanzees and monkeys. The disease was then spread from the animals to the hunters to the community.

It was also known as a love disease because it was mostly spread by intercourse or sexual activity. Go ahead! Find out some more for yourself… be informed and I challenge you to seek other truths about this history.

Now today…. The new generation is more aware and has more advantage of protecting themselves from this enemy. Be wise and take charge of your life and the decisions you make about your life- be careful! To those that misfortune came your way or accidentally were infected by HIV/AIDS- Take care of yourselves and seek help/ treatment… its not the end of the world and teach your loved ones.

Learn as much as possible about HIV/AIDS and be aware- as they say:

Eliminate the element of surprise! Scrutinize!!!

Change HIV Victim to HIV Victorrrrry!!!

If you don’t know your status- Get tested today!

Appreciation

Out of curiosity of what I would find if I google the word: APPRECIATION, not surprisingly this is the 1st meaning of appreciation on my online dictionary: Recognition of the quality, value, significance, or magnitude of people and things. It is very easy to put things aside and forgetting to be grateful and showing that you care and respect others. I personally am guilty of doing the exact thing of being so spoilt rotten with love and care that I assume that it will always be there Well, this may come as expected somehow because I am big when it comes to assumptions…not something to be proud about. There is a time where in your life you feel misplaced and vulnerable to an extent that the loneliness makes you feel hopeless. Through this emotional rollercoaster my heart sinks to the bottom of my feet and tears flood down my face and confusion takes over clouding my judgment. My heart aches and my body moans in pain. Those around get lost in wonder and they become too scared to ask. Be ...

Remember remember

Things happen and so many come as shocking surprises and others as forgotten truths that we all wish not to witness the coming or final discovery of it. Its hard to face head on your worst fears and realising that what you always perceived and predicted as true is in fact the truth. Its all about having a back bone to be able to stand and face this world. When you are in pain and in bed on your own and no one hears and sees your thoughts, those are the deciding moments of your life. That is the time when one makes a choice to be or not to be. Only the strong prevail, only the might walk on. As we face the tides in out lives, we forget not that we once walked to the parks of the union buildings and shared our future plans and dreams under the beautiful clear blue summer skies. Now drifted and miles and oceans apart, we still hang on and look forward to a better tomorrow. Hold my hand and never let go, I will be an idea and you will be the wisdom behind it. There is so much that is still...

The System

My heart, why you hurting so? What has brought upon you so much pain? As strong and flexible as you are I think you tried to hard and bent too far. My heart, what troubles you so? What has left you in such turmoil? As brave as you have been in the past, it seems that you won’t last. My feet, why do you drag me down so? What chain and ball is slowing you down? As fast as you have been to carry me through so many fires and devotion you have shown. My hands, why do you tremble so? What fear and pain has left useless? As magical as you have been with a pen and paper but now you are clueless. My hands, why you allow my syllabus leave me behind? What has left you disable? What work can be done if not completed buy writing it down with my hands, they are not able. My eyes, why do you cry so? What has disturbed your concentration and stolen you vision? As sharp and sparkling as you have always been in the past but now you show signs of depression. There is something wrong with the system, the ...
