GETTY'S GIRLS' ASPIRATION HIGHLIGHTS..


Getty’s girls’ fortress is an initiative founded to help the girl child and all her struggles, afflictions and help elevate her strengths. This initiative aspires to serve, protect, elevate and strengthen the girl child. We believe the girl child isn’t weak or fragile like most NGOs and other organizations have publicized in order to get funds.

The girl child is maltreated and afflicted in so many areas of her life but she never gives up. She never lets that keep her from dreaming big, being ambitious or break her spirit. The girl child is the mother of tomorrow and she needs moral support as much as she needs the rudimentary tools to enable her grow up into a woman of substance and that’s where GGFI comes in.

We strive to bring all the girl child problems, struggles and all the heinous crimes to light. We aspire to protect them and provide them with resources that will help them fight back or prevent  most of the situations that victimize and stigmatize them….there are some well known situations that have plagued the girl child for centuries and others are cultural or religiously related.

 GGFI is an intiative that is cultivated on outreach programmes so as to be accessible to the girl child nationwide then later spread internationally. We have partnerships with several orphanages currently and we are hoping to grow our partnerships al over so as to be able to touch and be lease of hope to girls all over the country and some day globally. Because its not only the girl child that needs enlightenment on handling her plight but her care givers and very many other people around the world that are mostly ignorant. So we strive to educate everyone out there both male and female. Not just to paint the child as fragile or weak. Although she is, stigmatizing her with it or giving everyone ammunition to walk all over doesn’t work in her interests. Its time that picture gets painted afresh.

The girl child being portrayed as weak and defenceless is what gives the crimes against them and the culprits power while making them appear like it’s the girl child’s fault that she is victimized. GGFI aspires to enlighten the girl child that as much as women have been stigmatized as the weaker sex it doesn’t mean they should fold their arms and sit feeling sorry for themselves when they can eradicate ignorance with us and fight back with education to end the victimization and stigmatization as long as they are knowledgeable and have the foresight on how to go about it.

The girl child not only needs educational institutions to provide them with the necessary tools they need to elevate and strengthen them. We are looking to actually make use of the counselors in this country though having them volunteer is an issue. There are students majoring in psychology that can also intern or do it as a community service to get extra credit for their grades but we’ll have to get in touch with the campuses to offer that so that we enrich both the afflicted and the volunteers and that way we wouldn’t run out of counselors or psychologists that the girl child definitely require to have well-rounded growth both mentally and physically.

There is hope that I the near future we would be able to loan money to the girls that have grown into women under our supervision and need to start their lives or families on their own. They can use the money to start up a business according to their strengths or help them move in somewhere else if they get employment before their actual salary starts coming in. Where they would have to pay back ofcourse with some type of percentage to keep generating revenue for the running of the NGO and support the other girls working on success and independence like them.

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE (EP 1)


RAPE;


With prior research and investigations held in a number of counties, one of the newest NGOs in the country and I have come to the conclusion that most girls are subjected to this heinous crime because of lack of secure sleeping quarters plus their insecure environs. Putting up easily accessible homeless shelters where they can turn in for the night with a warm bed and equally warm dinner and breakfast before they go out during the day to chase their endeavours. They don’t need to be caged in a home with supervision that probably never happens because they still get hurt even with the ‘supervision’ put in place. 
We are also advocating for self-defense classes. Where a couple of trained individuals, l can give them classes either once or twice a week. At GGFI the intention is going the entire 10yards in strengthening and elevating the girl child. Most of what we’ve ALL seen and heard is bogus because just feeding, clothing and putting a roof over their heads just doesn’t cut it for this particular crime.

A legit security company with well-trained security guards should be put in place to protect the perimeter of the shelters at all times. So that they can have someone to be accountable for incase anything of any detrimental sort happens to the girl child while they are on duty. That should make them more zealous with their work.
The deployment or implementation of the 'nyumba kumi' initiative would also help the girls keep each other close and every chaperon/guardian would work and focus better and keep a close on the girls they are responsible for; and learn about them individually intimately which would also help pin point the areas where they need help away from the usual basic needs. The nyumba kumi initiative also works to create situations where strong friendships could be cultivated and once people care about each other they like being around each other which would help reduce the girls wondering off alone more to less and endangering themselves.

FORGIVE THYSELF....


I know there are people out there who probably look like they've got their shit together but are the people damaged the most on the inside because they can't forgive themselves for things that happened in the past or situations that they could have changed or were beyond their control but still hold themselves captive by taking the blame.
These situations could be separated parents where the children blame themselves for the separation. Others believing they saw the red flags and could have something about it. While the parents are blaming themselves for not seeing the downward spiral or they saw it and wish they'd done some things differently or not...others believing the maltreatment they received from their spouse who'd stopped appreciating and respecting them is their fault.
Another situation could be accepting all negativity thrown at you by your family,friends that betray you before long,relationships with either male or female spouses not lasting because you believe you are the problem.....most times your not the problem. Most people just can't handle 'great people'. Your probably made of really awesome stuff that most weak,ignorant and inferior people around you can't take it! Your not doing anything phenomenal right now you believe because you already are phenomenal!! It could be your way of life,your gigantic personality,your outstanding grades that even your teachers and family don't acknowledge thus bringing your self-esteem down.
Make your peace with yourself first and forgive yourself first. Human beings won't forgive you just because you apologised so let that be their own cross to carry. You acknowledged you were wrong and you've apologised genuinely. Good. Leave them to their fate. You win some you lose some. You matter most to yourself. You don't owe anyone anything but yourself. They choose to torment,taunt,insult and ridicule you for it. Fine. That's their burden. They've gone ahead and attracted negative energy to themselves. That negativity usually manifests itself after sometime. Either you start getting attacked with diseases like heart failure,high blood pressure,depression,chronic anger etc. Rarely manifests immediately. Their relationships could start falling apart,their grades start dwindling,work they enjoyed starts being a burden,losing friends,start avoiding people they know,abandon activities or hobbies they used to love...that's the fate they'd have chosen for choosing to make your mistake theirs! So love thyself,forgive thyself and appreciate thyself. People will love you the way you love yourself. If you show you don't value yourself....no one will either. Very few people of substance will stick around.the people that are mentally strong,wise and not inferior. Those are the ones that should matter. Even if your family believes you are a joker,a mistake, the black sheep and most people act like your invisible or insignificant and your only relevant when you've done something wrong. Yes,it hurts! Yes,it feels AWFUL! Yes,it'll give you issues like inferiority complex and make you believe you really are hopeless. Okay,so you made a mistake or several really bad choices and hanged out with the least desirable group of people and eventually ended up at the wrong places at the wrong time wether your guilty or not. Fine! That's happened! Your already beating yourself about it. So let the one who never made a mistake be the first to throw stones! Sadly as human beings it is hardwired in our systems to judge or jump to conclusions and see the worst of situations. They will judge you especially the ones who have made the most mistakes themselves and are now somewhere of relevance. Some believe they are shaping you others (still wrong) are just being spiteful maybe to console themselves or pacify their concious' of their own past mistakes that at that time appear smaller than your current mistake or bad choice. Whichever it is, its not your fault how people respond to your mistakes. Anger in most cases could be justified but 'judgement' isn't. Spite,malice,betrayal,unappreciation,insults....(Just naming afew)...these reactions aren't your fault. Everyone is entitled to their feelings and opinions but how they deal with them isn't your fault. As long as you learn to forgive yourself first you'll understand. You were put on this earth for a reason....find it! Even babies that are still births are lessons though most people tend to believe they are punishments. Maybe God is teaching you not to take anything for granted. Maybe you were drifting apart from your significant other and the tragedy brings you closer..God knows best.
You weren't a miscarriage,a still birth..you are alive and have most of your faculties working just the way they should!! You are your own worst obstacle.  Because if you rely on people to define who you are then you'll never learn who you are even to yourself and that's where the biggest problem is. You need to love yourself unconditionally with all your flaws and the mistakes you did especially when you had a choice to make the right decision. Everyone has made mistakes just because they aren't publicized or aren't being condemned with them they are with yours doesn't make them perfect or better than you. People dwell on your mistakes and wrong choices. They condemn you,they remind you comstantly about them,they use them against you when you don't act the way they want you to or they are having a bad day. While others are just evil like that. They dangle them in your face whenever they feel like it even in public especially when they have an audience. Right? And that crushes you right? Good. You are human and that's wrong. You know that. Your not embracing their attacks. Honestly,why should anyone forgive you if you can't forgive yourself?!  So why do they do it?! Why do they have to go so low just to bring you down?! Is that even necessary? It is by the way and its not at the same time. Its to make you work harder probably in never making the same mistake again and relinquishing power from that person to stop them from rubbing it in your face. Its to make you actually soul search and make your peace with it and be able to fight back when you need to. Then there's the fact its not necessary.....who are they? Who made them perfect? Who made them God? Why are people forgetting a sin is a sin to God. Killing and lying are both equal in God's eyes. That's why murderers,rapists and people who tell small white lies are all forgiven by God the minute they go on their knees and cry out for forgiveness.
The little I know about such vicious,vindictive,malicious and spiteful people is that they are fighting their own battles with inferiority complex. They are consoling themselves and their mistakes with yours. They aren't happy...probably someone is doing the same to them and they now believe its ok to do it to you. In some cases they just enjoy bringing you down because you are just intimidating to them and the only way they can mask it or deal with it is try to bring you down or break your spirit that appears to be soaring so high!
But the best part about it or rather what I take comfort in is when you hit rock bottom or placed last on a list....there's only one way to go but up! So put down that baggage and forgive yourself. Life would be really boring and monotonous anyways if everyone was perfect. Right? So please quit being your own obstacle to happiness and living out your maximum potential.

FLORA AND FAUNA


My basic explanation for flora and fauna is simple and basic:
Fauna is all of the animal life of any particular region or time. The corresponding term for plants is flora. Flora, fauna and other forms of life such as fungi are collectively referred to as biota.
In more scientific terms:
By definition, flora is a word of Latin origin referring to Flora, the goddess of flowers. Flora can refer to a group of plants, a disquisition of a group of plants, as well as to bacteria. Flora is the root of the word floral, which means pertaining to flowers. Fauna can refer to the animal life or classification of animals of a certain region, time period, or environment. Fauna is also of Latin origin. In Roman Mythology Fauna was the sister of Faunus, a good spirit of the forest and plains.
Flora has had her fair share of being exploited and ruined and some species have even been brought to extinction and then some. Like rainforests and wetlands being eradicated for sky scrapers or exclusive shopping malls and high end condos. These trees and flowers plus forests are habitats to the animal kingdom whom we capture afew put in zoos and kill the others along with their natural God given habitats.

There are new henious crimes against the latter 'fauna'. Crimes like having sexual intercourse with the animals in the very recent past I've witnessed a hen,a goat and even a donkey being raped by men. And in the case of the raped donkey the men were five and they even took turns to perform the the abomination while the others held the poor animal down. Simply despicable,disgusting and downright evil if you ask me. Although these abominable acts of mental degeneration might not be so new but their popularity has spread alarmingly. Fauna has been rather appreciated until lately in the department of providing us with various kinds of delicacies from the non-vegetable (flora) kingdom with domesticated animals like cows which provide us with beef and milk,goats that provide us with mutton,pigs which give us pork while hens give us chicken and eggs. The other domesticated class of Fauna have helped us in various ways. Like the donkeys and horses who have been helping us in transportation since 4600-4000 B.C respectively. Yet they are so unappreciated now since we are so digitally inclined and reliant.
My line of thought borders more on curiousity. Why are grown men with wives and families choosing to attack a helpless animal when this digital era has brought with it lack of scruples. Where the women are the ones doing the chasing and conquering. Where they don't care about what society will think and some even don't care about their parents and how they seem to be dragging their family names in the mud with their wanton abandon to canal lust of the flesh. So the men can't say they are having what is popularly known as 'dry spell' to the extent of performing such traumatizing acts to both the animal and us the human population when we finally hear or read about them. What is it then?!
Is it a ritual for some sort of initiation?! Should we actually shamelessly blame it on alcohol?! Or the devil himself?! Or is it 'stress' related?!
