ON 3 HOURS SLEEP AND EDITING EDITORS!!

ON 3 HOURS SLEEP AND EDITING EDITORS!!

Long time, no write. I have longed for a moment like this with baited
breathe. Why?

For the last l don't how long, l have been working on the Launch of the
*Pillars Guide - a manual on responding more effectively to HIV/AIDS*.
It has a Christian perspective to it. It is in Swahili and totally
awesome with audiences that are willing to make stigma history. It is
clear and to the point. Enough about it. But if you would like to find
out more about it, just holla and l will have it gotten to you. It was
worth the hussle. You know getting the who whos to the place of the
launch. Get everything right. You can't believe what you have to go
through to just get an audience of 150 people seated and listening to an
idea you think is great. It truly is a hussle.Anyways.

So l was saying that l have longed for a moment like this for a long
time. For the last one month l have been working for 14 hours or more.
It has been tiring. Sometimes surviving on 3 or 4 hours's sleep. How do
those people who do that survive without having a nervous breakdown?
Anything below 5 hours of sleep for me is totally out. Congrats to those
that live like that.Honestly. 3 hours and for what, a year of study and
working? You own the world truly.

Now at least l get to do one of the most interesting things in the
world...write what l want. I feel the air of freedom.I feel so
liberated. This morning l was thinking about it and couldn't help but
thank God for whoever thought of the idea of blogging. Oh Please!!
Editors are good. They keep you grounded. But half the time they are
chopping away at your work and sometimes making it into them. Suddenly,
you are checking out your article in the magazine or newspaper and it
has no resemblance to what you had in the first place. Power to the
bloggers of the net.

Editors, its nice to have a world that you exist.
You have taught me to appreciate the blogging world more.
