In other parts of the world it's summer. Here in Germany, winter is just a few days away. We awaken to icy cold mornings. Some of us would rather turn over and go back to sleep than to have to get up and go out into the cold. After a nice, hot shower and a warm breakfast, it's a bit easier to go out into the cold in order to reach our school, workplace or friends' homes. We spend our days doing what we need to do, or doing what we like and enjoy doing. Evenings are usually spent warm and cozy in a pub, restaurant, at home in front of the television set, reading a book, or surfing through the internet.
Yes, life is usually easy and comfortable here in Germany. Winter is a time of cozy pleasures with little thought of what is going on somewhere else. While skiing down a slope or sipping a hot cocoa with a good book on our laps, it's difficult to think of the young child in the slums of Kenya working to care for his/her brothers and sisters because their parents have died of HIV/AIDS.
Who thinks of the little girls who are - at this moment as I write this article and as you read these words - being circumcised because during the hot December/January weeks the girls have 6 weeks time to heal before returning to school? That is, if they heal; if they live to remember the agony; if they live to experience the pain of sexual contact or childbirth.
Who thinks of the parents who have no idea where to find food for their children - while we are strolling down the snowy streets and searching for the 'just right' Christmas present?
Who thinks of the children dying of HIV/AIDS because someone told their relatives that they themselves would be cured if they had sex with a pure child - while we are singing Christmas songs with our own healthy, happy children?
Who thinks of the hot sun beating down on the hungry, thirsty and sick children - while we are sledding happily down a hill with our laughing family?
Who thinks of all that poverty in the midst of their own riches - and even more so, complains about what they don't have enough of? What in the world are you doing to change a little piece of the world?
Very few of us will ever be able to change the world. All of us could change a part of it though. We can change lives: person by person; child by child; day by day. There are so many ways. We just have to look around us. Leben und Lernen in Kenia e.V. (in English: Live and Learn in Kenya - found here at Taking IT Global) for instance, is constantly changing lives of children - desolate, poverty-stricken children, mainly orphans and half-orphans who live in the slums of Nakuru, Kenya. Live and Learn in Kenya not only finds people who act as sponsors for the education of children that had no hopes of ever going to school, but it is also building a shelter at the Virginia M. Buena Memorial Center for the Needy for these orphans where they will not only live - they will also learn to take their lives in their own hands and learn a trade.
What in the world are you doing? You're reading something that may very well change your life enough to help you change other lives.

I caught genital herpes from my Ex Husband in 2012,he never told me about the virus. I had it for 6 years with so many outbreak,and it affected my life.. People think herpes is really a minor skin irritation herpes has a long term effects on health. The stigma attached to this virus by ignorant people is ridiculous. Most people have herpes in one form or another,i was first taking Antiviral medicines, such as acyclovir(Zovirax), famciclovir (Famvir), and valacyclovir (Valtrex), are recommended for treating primary genital herpes outbreaks. This medicine can be taken when an outbreak occurs. It can also be taken every day to help prevent outbreaks,it is not a total cure... I will like to tell everyone who is reading this my testimony on how i get rid of my genital herpes.I was reading a comment on the internet,and i saw a testimony posted by a young lady from USA that she got rid of her herpes with the help of Doctor Elvis,a Traditional Herbalist from Nigeria.So i was so happy when i saw that post,that his herbal medication Cure the virus totally.I quickly copied the herbal doctor email address and i email him within 30 minutes he respond to my mail.I explain things to him he told me not to worry that i should fill his herbal form which i did..The next day he told me that he has prepare the herbal medicine,that i should send him my home address that he want to send his HERBAL MEDICINE to me via DHL or FedEx that was how i got the herbal medication and i use it as i was instructed.After a week i went to see a Medical Doctor who confirmed my herpes was no more.When Mira a friend of mine saw my HOSPITAL TEST RESULT she was surprise and i also introduce her to Dr ELvis and she also got cured from same Genital herpes Virus.
