Actually the world is rotating with me, meaning that during its rotation I am also growing internally and externally, as the river flows, blood inside my body flows. The minority say the world is easy while the majority say the world is difficult. For sure I am perplexed due to the majority’s statement, and I am always in a dilemma.
When I reached fourteen years old, my mum hit the nail on the head with a word of advice and it was, “Have a dream, my son.” From that day I started looking forward to having a dream. In fact I got it, and it has transformed my life. Indeed I am studying with a goal and a dream of becoming a president of my adorable country Uganda. And if God answers my prayer, I will be reliant to transform my Uganda and family to opulent.
For sure I am so touched to help fellow Ugandans in that I would like to change their necessities other than grumbling. I know I was born in a poor family, but as Emmanuel, God is with us. To connote my livelihood of fellow Ugandans, for example reporters, politicians, market vendors and others, in Uganda many people are suffering, passing under torturing situations. But I comfort them with a blessed sentence, which is to respect God, and then Ssendagire Fred is coming, president of Uganda.
Indeed, like the bees in the hive, the country Uganda needs cooperation and unity. What is observed now is oppression and racial segregation. This is among tribes, families and Ugandan citizens themselves. But I request Ugandans to be as happy as a king, waiting for my future promises, heading to modify their realistic challenges in the country Uganda.
Like a blossoming flower, my life is changing in size, height, understanding and lifestyle. In summary, like the bun in the oven, I am growing into an important creature created by God, whom I believe is the creator of the whole universe. I conclude by praying harder for my life to prosper so that I can be able to transform my country Uganda to a developed, blessed Pearl of Africa.
By Ssendagire Fred.
