Dignitaries on the dais, organizing committee, participants and volunteers: it is a great honor and privilege to participate in commemorating this day that is, official opening of Rangwe Youth Empowerment Centre on the 12th October 2012. I express my deep gratitude to the district youth development officer, organizing committee and participants who maxim this reality. My deep sense of gratitude is extended to volunteers for your dedicated support to ensure that such a history is monumental in this particular region.
Youth development is of great gratification to our Kenyan financial system as it will ensure that we attain vision 2030 in style. Life is in session .are you present? Positive thinking can be the best means for developing healthy, happy, attitudes towards yourself and others. We must consider this “what we seek, we shall find, what we flee from flees from us’’.most of the time we flee from the things, people, structures, opportunities and miracles that can lead us to a lifetime of happiness. Realizing that each time we face our fear, we gain strength courage, and confidence in the doing, participants will learn the importance of facing our fears in order to succeed life. At last I would like to recite a poem on IDEALS by Helen Steiner Rice which states that by following the ideals we shape our future and get empowered…….
Remember that ideals
are like stars up in the sky
you can never really reach them
hanging from the heavens high…
But like the mighty mariner
who sailed the storm-tossed sea
and used the star to chart his course
with skill and certainty
You too can chart your course in life
with high ideals and love
For high ideals are like stars
that light the sky above…
You cannot ever reach them
but lift your heart up high
and your life will be as shining
As the stars up in the sky …..
Thank you.
