  • CHANGE STARTS SMALL

    CHANGE STARTS SMALL

    What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?

    “A simple realization that you get to live your life only once! Each second that is going by will never ever come back” (unless of course, you are Dr. Strange)

    Be thankful for what you’ve been given, even for the littlest things. If you’re in pain, be thankful that you have the ability to feel. If you have food, friends, the breath of life…be thankful. You have so much more than someone else.

    People keep waiting for the “right time” to come. They wait for the “right place” to be. Many wait for the “right job” to work at and the “right university” to study. They even wait for the “right time” to be happy.

    You can’t go back in the past. Every moment you spend is the last time you are living it. You see, you need to understand that whatever small things happen to you, daily, make them fun. Learn from them, and treat them as your favourite memory. These are never coming back.

    Achieve emotional stability enough to understand straightforward, what do you want from this life and how is everything happening around you getting you closer(or farther generally.) Don’t fear to be a normie and not standing out in the crowd, try not to focus on negative things happening in your life by totally immersing yourself with positive people and feelings.
    Believe in what you want to do, and keep believing it either until you get it or you can’t breathe.

    Always remember , you are living a life which few people dream of living. Never regret your life.
          

               Do read:
    “Realize the importance of time early in your life. By doing so, you can take drastic steps to improve the quality of your life.”

       DISAGREEMENT IS NOT DISRESPECT.

    What public figure do you disagree with the most?

             Speaking truth,  even when it’s uncomfortable.


    Jennifer Lawerence

    I used to love Jennifer Lawerence. I loved her in Hunger Games and thought she was a fabulous actress. Then this happened.




    She proudly talked about how she rubbed her butt on a sacred Hawaiian rock in a talk show. She made no big deal as if it was a harmless joke. I’m sorry. You don’t just causally talk about mocking other’s culture. (Chris Pratt looks really uncomfortable because he used to live in Hawaii) (Edit: The point is not that she rubbed her butt on a rock, the point is that she rubbed her butt on a SACRED Hawaiian rock despite many people warning her it was sacred. I wouldn’t care if she did this to any other rock. She did it on a sacred rock knowingly. If she didn’t know it was a sacred rock, that’s ok. But she knew it was sacred.)

    This made me lose about half the respect I had for her. Then later I found out about this.




    Jennifer Lawerence was drinking at a bar when a drunk fan asked her for a selfie. She said no multiple times, and finally, the drunk guy said F you to her as he walked away. (EDIT: I would like to make one thing very clear. I’m not justifying his behaviour. He should have left when Lawerence said no the first time). She then grabbed a beer, poured it on the drunk guy, and started to beat him up. And she told that story laughing.

    Talk about double standards. If any male celebrity went on a talk show and talked about how he assaulted a female, not only is the audience going to boo at him, his career will be over with everyone labeling him as a misogynistic monster.

    This made me lose all my respect for Jennifer Lawerence.

      CLEAN SURROUNDINGS, HAPPY LIVING.

    What do you do to be involved in the community?

             When hygiene becomes hope; 

    “A cleaner space. It is a stronger place.”

    In the vibrant neighborhood of Bugolobi, the aroma of fresh chapati filled the air. Children played netball on dusty courts. Am named Daya. Many knew me for my powerful voice on Daya Let’s Talk Show. My thoughtful words on Daya We Talk inspired others. I carried something even greater than my media platforms. I had a deep love for my community.

    For years, l had noticed how poor hygiene silently affected my neighbours. Clogged drainage channels overflowed when the rains came. Piles of uncollected rubbish sat at street corners. Children played barefoot near stagnant water, and illnesses spread quietly in the shadows.

    One morning, as the rain tapped gently on my window, my favourite kind of weather l made a decision. Using my voice and my influence, l would bring change.

    I started small. On my talk show, l aired an episode titled “Clean Spaces, Healthy Lives.” I invited health experts to speak about sanitation. Local leaders also discussed waste management. Everyday residents shared their experiences. The conversations were raw, honest, and eye-opening.

    But l didn’t stop at talking.

    The next Saturday, armed with gloves, brooms, and garbage bags, l stepped into the streets myself. I invited my listeners, friends, and even the She Cranes fans l often cheered with to join me. Together, they cleaned drainage channels, swept market areas, and sensitized shopkeepers about proper waste disposal.

                Hygiene in our community.



    I organized school visits, teaching children the importance of handwashing, keeping their playgrounds clean, and protecting their water sources. With my warm voice and encouraging spirit, l made hygiene feel like a shared mission, not a burden.

    Soon, monthly community clean-up drives became a tradition. Local businesses donated supplies. Health clinics offered free check-ups during the drives, teaching about waterborne diseases and safe food handling. The marketplace grew cleaner, the streets were clearer, and the smiles were brighter.



    I also lobbied local authorities, pushing for regular garbage collection, public toilets, and safe water points. My articles on Daya We Talk documented both the struggles. They also celebrated the victories. These stories inspired nearby communities to start their own hygiene campaigns.

    Years later, Bugolobi wasn’t just known for its lively sports matches and bustling markets. It was admired as one of the cleanest, healthiest neighbourhoods in the region. At every clean-up drive, every health talk, and every children’s lesson, l was there. My gloves were on, and my smile was wide. Rain or shine, I reminded everyone that a healthy community begins with clean hands, clean spaces, and open hearts.
