My greatest heart's desire

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

I wake up everyday with a burning desire. A desire to make my nation great again. Although I'm no where near where I want to be, I'll continue to be relentless.

I live in a community where there is lack of educational infrastructure such as a library. Children a playground where they can all go and play during holiday. The teenagers engage in indiscriminate sex and hence teenage pregnancy is the order of the day. Most of the young men and women drink themselves to stupor and are so unproductive due to that.

We have bad roads and people build their houses any way they want because the agencies responble for planning the community are not competent enough.

There lots of things that really sicken me in my community. Erosion is another menance that is subtly destroying the lands in the community. Theses some pictures I took with my phone.

Although there are some good things about my communuty , I feel that it's not just enough.

I always dream of a community where the kids are well socialised into the community by way of having better education. A community where teenagers are properly given sex education so that they'll take charge of their lives. I community where they is a children's playground where every child go to have fun and meet new people. I always dream of a community where the youth engage in productive ventures to make the community a better place.

Till I fulfill this dream, I'll continue to be restless.

You can also share your dreams by way of commenting dear reader. Do have a productive day.

Beautiful dream, and you will have it this year! Maybe even this month! We will get you the money to build a Playground and a Park for all the children and everyone to enjoy! We will find the least expensive way to do this soon and fast and just find a space, and piece by piece we will put Grass or Wood Chips or Spongy Material that is soft for children to play on, and there will be free wifi in the park, with a tall Pole with a solar powered battery BRCK device or the special african made solar powered phone charging kiosk in my recent post, so the park will have free wifi! so people can come and do work on steemit! it will be Steemit Park!

And we will then get you an African Designed American Made KioKit made by BRCK designed in Kenya, that has many tablets and a wifi backup internet router and is a "classroom in a box" and can be a Hospital System for hospitals and an office for an office, and you will be able to run a school hospital of business in any building even withot electricity, and we will get u a solar panel if u neeed it but u will achieve your ddream

Ghana and Nigeria have so much in common. @appiahgyan . Agencies that should monitor building of houses won't function until there's a collapse or big erosion. Africa's growth depends solely of the growing generation. However, the youths do not have the proper guidance and teaching. Let's hope that one at a time we are able to make our nations great individually and collectively. One Africa!

Ghana Nigeria and Malawi have so much in common. I see the same problems here. Its up to us, the youth. One Africa indeed/

:-) Malawi. You are right @kuwala313 Its up to us. Followed you bro!

I've followed you. I want to see you achieve your dream. I see the same problems in Malawi

This problem will certainly be solved so that you become inspired to tackle yours.

Let's not give up on our society , thats where we all generated from.lets put our dreams into realities and better our societies.

Our dreams will definitely come to lofe so long as we work hard towards them with tenacity.

I think one of the main problems for Africa today is the Africans have too many kids. So the economy must keep up with this growing population. They should do what they did in China. Look where they came from 50 years ago and where they are standing now. Less people = more wealth to share / person.

I couldn't agree with you more on that. Most Africans give birth to lots of kids and this is simple because of illiteracy. If this adults were properly educated on how the populatiin affects the economy and the need to use birth control methods, they would have less kids and nurture them properly.

I just paid almost $4 or 2 SBD to promote this story....i love that u aded photos like i asked! Its a little late but its ok u can make anew pst!
If u would ave added this images in the very beginng this post could have gotten hundreds of dollars but I believe @thejohasfiles can now take a second look and maybe give you an upvote now that youve added these awesome photos!

I am sharing thos on twitter and facebook too!

I am gona help u make this playground an community center and computer lab for teenagers to be able to make some money on steemit and become a beacoon of hope in africa!
I am making a new post on the solar powered batteries we need to help u buy, its goan be so awesome i am so excited i am in a state of ecstasy everyday now and the onlything that makes me anxious is a feelng of not working hard enough and nt making enough posts! but if i post too ffast my posts quality siffers so i will begin to slow dow and simply take my time which I have unlimite

i am so lucky to have my own treehouse an solar powered houses in this neighborhood alllowing my powerto come from the sun and be sustainble and so many plants and food and fruit trees around me, and I have chosen a very frugal lifestyle where I dont buy toys and order crap oline anymore and i dont even sppend money on canabis anymore i just grow my own and ive had so much that I wont need to buy anymore weed! I can save ALL my money now and I feel so rewarded when I see how much I have saved for myself after half a decade of not having anymoney and struggling with opiate addictiion and ive been clean almost year years in a few months and I know I can help other drug adicts here on stemit and convice the how saving their steem and not casing out to buy drugs is going to pay off so much !

I just loce helping people now and My Ego is honestly gettinga rush off being seen as a helpful human changing lives, it is a High for me! it is a rush for me to fix the problems I used to cry about as a young child, like children starving or dolphins and whales dying or animals going extinct , i knew that i could help stop it all one day, i didnt know how but as I learned more and more abooutthe world it seemed to become more nd more if a challenge

BUT now that we have the internet it seesm more easy than ever to solve these global problms like Hunger Poverty and homelessness, all can be solved with a Universal Basic STEEMIT access not froom any government or chairty organization or bill gates foundatiion NO we will do this all ourselves using the free market and the chairty of good people

and i promise we will continue our now amaazng track record of showing how PROTABLE it can be to HELP africans!
