Day 173

By constant self-discipline and self-control you can develop greatness of character. –  Grenville Kleiser 

It’s 11: 25 PM on day 173 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself a chili-omelet – or at least what was intended to be an chili-omelet – for breakfast – my brother made it so naturally it didn’t came out exactly right in fact there were even a few shells in it but I ate it with a smile of my face because I truly believe it’s the thought that counts and not the execution 🙂 –       tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign for a few hours – no luck today but someone did promise to make a donation on Monday so I’m happy 🙂 –      feed myself rice and curry for lunch, watch TV and feed myself  butternut and Batura – deep fried bread – separately –  for dinner.

 This morning my aunt and uncle came to visit and the first words out of her mouth when she saw me sitting in front of my laptop were your probably on Facebook, right and I thought to myself with my blood now at boiling point ON FACEBOOK… do you have any idea what I do all day but chose to say yes I am because I had promised myself that I would NEVER EVER use my philanthropic endeavours to look good in the eyes of others and judging by the way I’d behaved this morning I’d say that I’m doing a pretty good job of keeping that promise. Have you found greatness of character within you by practising self-control and discipline? 🙂
