WHAT A PICNIC!!!

As someone once said concerning finding joy in life, “by all right means possible, looking for joy in almost every event in life, should be part of one’s daily goal.” In agreement with that statement; joy being something which is presumably short term, but with the constant presence of joy in one’s mind and soul, the probability of achieving what many people call it a UNIVERSAL GOAL, happiness, is very high.

Carrying on with ‘tradition’, the yearly picnic was far much from being just great. With the accompaniment of many events within the Event itself, made it colorful. As community life stands to be one of the major pillars of formation, the picnic was one of the many outstanding outings which bring us closer to one another. Being a weekend and an official community picnic day, which had been planned for and waited-for by many if not all, all the preparations and requirements were made on time.

Arriving in such an amazing location with a great view of Lake Victoria, the chilly breeze cooled down every bit of the whole semester tension. With united spirit we laid down all the possible things to be effectively used alongside the helpless animals that were to make a fantastic meal for the members present. After the ‘pouring of libation part,’ the ‘work of fire’ began as we effectively did the required part as we were to be on time at the same time.

Just to make things clear; we did not head there just for the purpose of appreciating our stomachs but also to strengthen the bond we share as brothers. Doctrina Beach, the venue, was superb and a perfect venue for the activity at that particular time. With everyone taking part in the work to be done, we successfully performed what we all desired. Above all, the important pillar, community life was carefully actualized with all the activities present like: cooking, sharing the meal together, and taking part in different games and many more.

It is always good to cherish such moments in life which only comes once and they will never come again. We try to nourish whenever we are planted and enjoy life while in it as we also try to be conscious of the tomorrow we are optimistic about.
