The March 2023, Tropical Cyclone Freddy hit the southern region of Malawi hard unleashing a tragedy to Malawians, with 507 people dead, 537 people missing and over 500,000 displaced in the 12 affected district. Roads, property, food and several belongings being lost. This terrible memory will live with us for the rest of our lives.

 


Being a poor country, this is sad news as we don't know where to start from, how we are going to recover and where we are going to start from? We need to understand that this is not a ones man’s job, we need to work hand in hand to revive our country. We are sending out a call of help to our development partners.

 

The head of state together with his vice president were deeply touched with the sad development, they both continue to help the victims and play a huge role in seeking help for the victims. The vice president is also highlighting the need for people to relocate to areas which are not prone to natural disasters in order to avoid such.

 

We have destroyed the environment by cutting down trees and this has cost us a lot, showing us that Mother Nature cannot be corrupt like humans, and can be unforgiving hence demanding justice. Let's plant trees in our beautiful mountains, let’s preserve the environment and avoid living in hilly areas, in so doing we will avoid these uncertainties. let’s all fight to make our environment better.

The woman in me is dominant, Everything is safely under control, Nothing falls off my guard. Though I am sometimes hurt, I still crack a grin, Because I was wonderfully created, That's why I'm called Mother Earth, A keeper of nations, That is me. Happy New Month everyone!!!!

                                                                Flirting comes from the old French word 'fleurter,' meaning to flower. There are different definitions of flirting, and I'll list a few of them according to Peta Heskell (2002). ☆ Flirting is about giving out that little bit but not being totally available. ☆ Flirting is about fun, connecting, and getting to know people. ☆ Flirting is a way of showing people you are interested in them. ☆ Flirting is about giving compliments, smiling, and making people happy. ☆ Flirting is like being a butterfly—it flutters past in all its beauty, and when we try to catch it, it flies away, leaving us wanting more... ☆ Flirting is eye contact.
