TANZANIA: Overcoming the feeling of a chance denied

I followed most of the elections of the USA with a lot of concern and felt like I was one of the voters but realized later this was rather imaginary. What really happened ? Where did we go wrong?. These are questions those whose feelings and choices were misplaced felt.

It hurts so bad whenever we are denied what was rightfully our choice. The big problem is when no apologies are made to those hurt it worsens the thought of it. The discouragement, the cries, the denial of rights and many more are reflections of what happens in many parts of the world. The difference usually is who does it, where and how? They all have different styles.

Fear has kept many people silent due to repressive systems where some people have no say even when they are hurt. Many would rather keep silent than face the wrath of their oppressors. All governments in the world should be more transparent to their citizens instead of being authoritative governments that do not care about how it hurts its people. They should practice self-censorship.

How then do we move on from where we got hurt? This is something very important for us to think about. What if this happens again? How shall we react? Do we expect to have leaders who will hurt us again? The solution lies with us. All we need to do now is to prove to the world that we are not failures rather we hold hands together with love understanding and solidarity and say to ourselves that we will keep on demanding for change whenever we feel something is wrong. As Tanzania we are a part of you.

Let us be strong for one another for America for then shall we gain the strength to take part in our future progress. God help and bless America.
