what is prosperity?

 

In his article,prosperity is more than just money;be rich,Lion Mambo sets off the blocks by invalidating a widely yet misconstrued maxim that prosperity is all about money.He points out that economic prosperity is just one of the various forms of prosperity. Mambo succinctly describes prosperity as the state of doing well,thriving and succeeding in different fronts of life.
Mambo outlines five areas of life in which one ought to be prosperous.They are;social,religious,economic, military and political.If one excels in all these areas then he is a 'complete package' as far as prosperity stretches.
Prosperity, according to Mambo,brings about happiness and serenity of mind,irrespective of the prevailing circumstances. To drive the point home,Mambo quotes from a verse in the Bible which states that all a man can do is eat,drink and enjoy,for tomorrow we die.He stresses that a prosperous person has quite a few cares in life, if any.
Mambo finalises by stating,rather lightheartedly,that a prosperous person is rich in happiness.

KONYEKI'S DAY; NEW LIFE.

           page 3                                                                                  go back to page 2. Miano handed him a note but instead of leaving the handcart pusher just stood there smiling sheepishly. Suddenly, he was   not in a hurry to go for more work until his colleague pulled him away. "Did you come here to embarrass the Registrar and turn this place to a money exchange market?" the man shouted. His looked visibly angry and told them that the time for admissions was over. Konyeki knew he had to act or his dream would go down the drain.      After gathering enough courage, Konyeki stepped forward to apologize about the incident. He pleaded with the Registrar to accommodate him as he dearly needed to study. He explained how they had travelled from far and had nothing to do with the "hooligan cart pushers." The Registrar who all along was biting and licking his lips in anger changed his attitude. Even the stone-hearted Miano who always

KONYEKI'S DAY; ESCAPED PRESSURE IN FAHARI

  page 6                                                                                            go back to page 5.   It required them to assume the position of half sitting and half squatting. Proper sitting only made the old and shaky furniture to crush under their weight.  Anyone unfortunate to 'break' a chair paid dearly as the tutors made it their duty to inform the Registrar who in turn termed this as "pure negligence" and demanded payment for the broken seat.   The Registrar enforced his words by deducting an overrated amount from the University fees. It was no secret that when he met tutors at the end of the semester, "money changed hands "to encourage them to report whoever broke any college property even if it was already past its usage time. The money did not buy new furniture. The broken pieces were taken for repair at the college workshop to a poorly paid technician who 'revenged' by doing a sheddy repair. It was common to find re

Foreign jobs for kenyans.

  The scam associated with working abroad It is the dream of every Kenyan to get proper employment and a better life for themselves and their families. Unemployment in the country prompts them to seek alternative ways of achieving this dream. Only a small percentage manages to gain entry to the foreign countries or even accomplish their dreams. What about the unlucky majority? Many Kenyans stuck in Arab countries work under inhumane conditions for little pay, if any. Stories of girls who have fallen victims of sexual assault are making rounds on the media. These girls are used in brothels and at times end up dead. Others are assured of dream jobs only to arrive and find that the supposed ‘agent’ traded them for money. Parents helplessly hear stories of what their children go through daily with no solution at hand. Those who are rescued narrate harrowing stories of their experiences. Others are lured into Somalia with the promise of well-paying office jobs only to find themselve
