I hope you enjoy this message from Patrick Tumwizere, who participated in the New Man, New Woman, New Life seminar and master class in Kampala with Mrs. Margaret Kiswiriri.
Praise the Lord Mama Auntie Margret,
Hope you and your family are doing well. I have always felt i was indebted to you
and the entire team of trainers of Empower International for imparting
sound doctrine and deeper insights into us as regards the Original
Intention and Design of Events by our Heavenly Father and God right
from the Creation.
Truth be told you have always blessed our lives with great knowledge
that gives us a broader understanding even to the topics that we
thought we had an idea about. We’re forever grateful & i encourage you
and your entire team to keep keeping on because that is one of the
major areas that require a dynamic shift especially in the
perceptions/thinking of most of our people here in Africa and Uganda
in particular.
I have attached a piece of writing here for you in form of a poem that
i wrote during the international women’s day celebrations-hope you be
blessed as you read through it’s lines..
A WOMAN’S PPF (PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE)
Bought before Birth & at birth an infamy
Grew up to no inheritance
Was confined only to the kitchen
Her earthly duty to reproduce & satisfy maniacal selfish needs
Dying to be forgotten, just dust back to dust
All this from time immemorial was woman’s only description
Not so any more, with the advent of Education
Both formal & informal
With which came enlightment and freedom
At the dawn of emancipation whose fruits we now see
The realization that both male & female bear qualities unbiased
Meet for both National & Global Development
Women’s Present Depiction
God above invested talent beneath
They exploited potential & greatness was born
History was changed, the present impacted to
Transform the future
Their names on the Headlines
Fast Inzikuru, Rich Maggie Kigozi to mention but a few
Not forgetting our very own Mother Figures in our lives
Who undoubtedly sacrificed their all for us
To turn us into the MEN we’re today
Hilary By Clinton, Michelle by Obama, Janet by Museveni
Great men beside whom noble women have rallied
To change history forever
What more shall we say
Remarkable evidences of the impact of women investment
To be traced in many a woman, women who have marked the land
And alongside men made the world complete
Never again to remain the same
Women’s present distinction
Educating the girl child to educate the nation
Long Live the African Woman
Long Live all the Women in our Nation-Uganda
Many Thanks
The Gracious & Compassionate God Richly Reward you for your Labour
Patrick Tumwizere
