T HERE IS NO LIFE WITHOUT knowledge and there is no knowledge without experience.
The best life is the one that is built from experiences.
This course is there to help and support the disabled and children.
Who are deprived of the rights to live their lives according to their experiences in Africa.
You can use pain, obstacles, rejection and discrimination to build your life, only when you have positive thoughts.
The form of the person does not determine the beauty of his heart.
Sometimes we all make the same mistakes, because of our similar interests.
The real burdens are invisible, it is better to carry the visible burden, when you can lay somewhere, to rest.
Life becomes difficult when some have to take advantage over others.
A culture is important only when it favors all of its offspring.
A culture loses its values when it deprives innocent people of the rights to live their lives according to their experiences.
Africa is a continent of fifty four recognized countries.
A continent mixed with several cultures and its cultures vary from country to country and from ethnicity to ethnicity.
We can find in a country several dialects and ethnic groups.
And there are small differences in ethnic cultures, in each ethnic group there are surnames with complicated meanings.
It is Africa with its beauty and with its sometimes complicated cultures.
In some African families the culture has remained intact as in the old days, Values determine rewards.
The man is attached to his culture while forgetting the evolution of his future generation.
Africa is its mysteries, the same culture favors some and the same culture deprives others to make them stronger.
Yes it is Africa, where the rooster crows in the morning to wake up its citizens in the villages. Africa is its beauty is like the human being with its knowledge.
It is in this continent that we also find some parents who pull their buttocks on the ground to wish all the misfortunes of the world on their own children.
Africa is the continent where you can find names with complicated meanings.
Such as Mapassi (the sufferings) Mandilu (the limits) Moukiama (rainbow,) yasaguila (do not rejoice) ect…
All these names are attributed to the child at birth.
In relation to the situation of his mother, and to the situation of the child, during his journey in the womb of his mother.
Yasaguila is the name given to a child whose mother has suffered several miscarriages, or the mother who loses children after childbirth.
Yes it is Africa with its cultures, In some ethnicities, the twins are the sacred children, its ethnicities never give the twins the names.
Until they themselves bring their names through the dream, by someone in the family or in the neighborhood.
Names such as Gondo (moon) Tanguou (sun) for Boys.
They are very special children, and some of them are very complicated.
Their ceremony is very special, to visit them at birth, you have to put the money on two plates. A single person can have three marriage statuses, traditional or customary marriage (the dowry), religious marriage and civil marriage.
In some ethnicities, the wife of the big brother becomes the inheritance of his family.
The little brother, the nephew, can have deep relations with the wife of the big brother, or the wife of the uncle without problems.
In this same culture after the death of the older brother or uncle.
The little brother or the nephew inherits the wife, in the pretext of keeping the children left by the big brother or the uncle.
If the wife and her family refused, the widow was expelled from her husband’s house with the children.
Sometimes the woman is forced to accept by overwhelming, just to ensure the place for her children.
Otherwise, there are children who end up being street children.
This same culture condemns the child who is born out of wedlock when that child is innocent. Life becomes more difficult when the person loses his rights and the reason for living.
Forced love, the minor children are sent in marriages.
They are deprived of the rights to live their lives according to their dreams.
Fates are smothered because of the goods we want to have today, while forgetting tomorrow. Sometimes we want to eat today while forgetting tomorrow.
This same culture prevents some children from living their lives according to their wishes and experiences.
From the moment when we know that, the best life is the one that is built from their own experiences.
It is in this same culture that some children do not have the right to refuse things that they do not find beneficial for their development.
It is enough to say no, or to do the opposite for a child to be cursed through languages and acts.
When would it be the turn of the youth? When will be the time for some parents to have conversations with their children?
When some parents will understand that this generation has too many challenges then the past generation.
Who is the future of tomorrow ?
Why is not given the chance, and the place to this youth.
If the day and the weather change, the culture and its values must also change in relation to its evolution.
Mourima (the heart) was born to a man called Malumbi (the news) and with a girl called Matsanga (the tears).
Malumbi’s father impregnated Malumbi’s mother, while forgetting the consequences that his parents had lived because of him.
Malumbi in his youth was called a bastard child because he was born without marriage.
At that time, having a child before marriage was a disaster.
His father was forced to flee because of all kinds of accusations against him.
Running was his only choice to save his skin.
Malumbi’s mother had gone to give birth in another village to her uncle.
After a few years, her mother left Malumbi with his uncle.
As in African culture, uncle, nephews and nieces are of great importance.
In the old days there were uncles who left their inheritances to their nephews and nieces instead of leaving their inheritances to their children.
Because the nephews, the nieces took the place of the uncle in the family in the event of the death of the uncle.
In some families, the real children of the family are nephews and nieces.
The children that the boy child gave birth to, were the children of his wife’s family.
Malumbi grew up with his uncle, his mother returned alone to her parents.
The people of the village believed that she had a miscarriage.
While she was gone, save and hid her child.
To prevent her child from experiencing all kinds of injustice.
Malumbi’s uncle had two wives and the last one was very young.
Over time Malumbi has become a big boy.
At that time, people who did not know how to read and write.
Counted the numbers from the fields they did to determine the age of the person.
Malumbi was 16 when his uncle’s wife was in love with him.
His uncle was old, his uncle’s first wife suspected the reactions of his co-wife
. His uncle’s first wife had a boyfriend, in the neighborhood, Malumbi knew their relationship.
As tradition says that the village chief never sees the devil, Malumbi was obliged to keep it a secret.
From day to day, Malumbi became a man and overtime Malumbi’s uncle grew older and tired. One morning the whole family had gone into the bush to clear the fields.
Malumbi’s uncle was left alone in the kitchen.
He was sitting by the fire on his lounge chair as usual.
On their return from the bush they found Malumbi’s uncle dead, he was very old and tired.
The whole village was aware of his death.
The two widows mourned their husband according to tradition.
Their hair was shaved and they made them wear the black clothes.
They wept while reciting the good deeds of their husbands.
They slept on a mat during the period of widowhood.
Even after his burial, they cried very early, in the morning before sunrise and in the evening before sunset.
Only a widow has the right to keep a widow in order to share the experiences with the person who has just lost her husband.
Widows are not allowed to talk much during widowhood, to respect tradition.
According to tradition, when a woman loses her husband, she must immediately wear her husband’s underpants or panties.
To avoid night husbands, and also to prevent
