Conflict Resolution by Youth (CRY) Uganda

http://www.cryuganda.org/#1

Warm greetings from Conflict Resolution by Youth (CRY) Uganda, a non Governmental organization founded in 1999 by young Ugandan ladies. It was registered in 2001 as an NGO non-profit non-governmental organisation in the Republic of Uganda. (CRY Uganda Reg. No. is S. 5914/3555). It arose out of the desire to change the prevalent culture of violence embraced by the youth to one of non-violence in addressing challenges that are faced by young people today CRY was founded by young people for young people. It has also been incorporated as a Ugandan company limited by guarantee, Its tax identification number is B08-1010-5244-S.
It arose out of the desire to change the prevalent culture of violence to that of non-violence by addressing issues that face young people today. This is backed by the firm belief that young people need to be exposed to wider horizons in order to change their lifestyles and attitudes – the guiding principle in CRY’s mission, a bold step in realising and securing social entrepreneurship. CRY Uganda is currently working on youth peace projects in south-east Asia and all over Uganda, but with particular focus to the northern and eastern parts of the Uganda in the districts of Lira, Kampala, Wakiso, Gulu, Kasese, Kabale, Bushenyi, Kitgum, Bukedea, Kapchorwa, Soroti, Kumi and Nakapiripirit, Moroto, Kitgum, Amuru, among others. CRY Uganda are part of a number of networks globally and exploit the magic that together we are stronger.

CRY recognizes that Youth are a resource. Youth are the resource. CRY Uganda submits that we ought to use the numbers, optimism, energy and enthusiasm of young people for solving today’s world challenges.

Since she left

Since She left
It rains no more
Earth is sunbaked
All tentacles dried
Oasis not trickling
Desert storms brewing
Everything is dying
Spirits praying
For a catapult
Full of elasticity
With an angle
With the perfect
Projection
Second to none
Great is its precision
Needed to restore
That which was
Now longing to return
To days now past
When love
Was the only gem
Attached to the hip
And all that is
The Alpha and the Omega
The ending becomes
The beginning...




Dance for love!

The watcher got us
dancing for love
what must be
will come to be
the key remains
buried within you
just dig a bit deeper
observe the forces
that are within
become aware
of it all
a hunch
a gut feeling
will serve u well
listen to the voice
of reason yelling
from the mountain top
within all that is u
do not second guess it
it's there for a reason
become aware
of all, nothing and everything
the universe knows
the universe gives
the universe got u
dance for love!

These are not just mental gisms


Using my magic paint in ink
I did once speak to the rainbow
Come down here magic carpet
Don't you get tired of the horizon
The eye in the sky and beyond
Won't you come down please
Gravity is not a bad thing
Down under is good
Coral reefs rule supreme
Sharks and stingrays 
Would be babies
Eels, jellies appreciate turtles
One of a kindSays the monster
Deep in the blue sea
We will make jaws
Out of youIf you dare
But gold does come
To those who dare
Why don't you take a dive
Beneath the pools
Sacred is their nature
The universe got u on hold
Take a chance
Obey the calling
Dynamite is explosive
These are not just mental gisms 
The Lockness Monster thrives.

She is Nubian
Nubian is She

She is a Sister
She is a Wife

She is a Queen
A Queen is She
She wears a Crown
The Crown is She

She is Kind
She is Beautiful
She is Humble

She is Love
Love is She
She loves God
God loves She

She sits there
There sits She

Regal genes
Regal green  dress
Regal green headdress
She wears

She is the Law
The law is She

She rules All.
 

 



Looking love in the eye


Looking love in the eye
it did wink at me
i did see stars in daylight
more flaura and fauna
majestic butterflies
moving in acrobatic moves
within the park
in my stomach
whispers in the wind
across the oceans and the seas
speak of roses sprouting
in the middle of the Sahara
with no oasis in sight
all it takes 
is believing
in the gift 
that keeps on
giving
seeing 
for some is believing
but believing
is seeing 
and that is above reality
something that makes
our nature godly
loving every moment
between 
all the quotes of time
now only summarized
as looking love in the eye!
