You Have Enough To Share
Many a time, people don't consider that what they have is enough to go round. They simply hang their thoughts on the fact that what is at their disposal is not enough , let alone sharing with others.
Instead, we should all focus on many other things instead of money. We should all arrive at that point where sharing becomes a part and parcel of us. The point of rendering one kind of assistance is our strength for living.
What Can You Share?
You can share many things. Just open your mind, look around you and see what is your power. Your so-called power could not be known by you. But a deeper look at your history, you will find it.
Experience
Your experience is perhaps the greatest asset that you have. Like they say
Experience is a great teacher.
When you walk through life and find the good, bad and ugly parts to life, you will be amazed how much experience you have gathered.
I love to share my experience with my fellows so they too can benefit from it.
I was born into a family where farming is our thing. My parents could farm practically everything. From crops to birds to goats to fish and whatnot.
Let Me Share
As a farm boy, a boy who grew up learning the ropes of farming, I could share with you a whole lot of processes that can become a stride for breaking away from boredom, stagnation and poverty.
I learnt that if I don't have enough money to rear chicken, I could stoop with local breeds of chicken that do not warrant much money to rear. And this has helped me to live and still have chickens that I don't necessarily have to spend money on.
The Rudiments First.
Particularly, it is important to get a space. With that we are good to go. We have the propensity to breed as much as we want. It is clear that with just a hen and cock, we are set to break the jinx.
The local breed fowl can scavenge for food by itself. There may be no need to spend so much on feeding the local fowl. But once in a while, one may pour out feed like guinea corn.
The local hen can lay eggs, incubate and hatch the eggs by itself without the aid of machines. Hence, the multiplier effects with little or no money one would have grown a large number of chickens.
Mixed Cropping Is Easy But Profitable
In the course of farming, I have learnt that one could plant three different crops in a small parcel of land.
For me, I would easily go for Corn, Cassava and Melon.
Corn is a very important crop and useful.for consumption. First, when the land is prepared, it is easy.
Three grains of corn in a particular hole will be fine. A 3-5cm gap from one planting spot to the other will be fine.
After the planting and germination of corn, you will wait for the stem to lay a hold of the earth before the next move.
Cassava Stem & Melon
Cassava is one of the greatest plants in Africa and South America. It makes most of our meals. To plant the cassava, the stems are to be cut to size of between 4-8cm long and laid in the ridges or land with the mature part buried under the earth while the growing side is exposed.
Melons can come in after the cassava stem has been planted. The melon is a dicotyledon crop. It helps to control weeds. In an erosion-prone area, the melon could be of immense help as much as it makes a good soup for us
You Can Share Expertise
What you have is enough to share. Apart from experience, expertise is another asset that is worth sharing. In our daily routine of work or career, we learn thing that could become beneficial to our immediate environment.
About a year ago, when the government thought it wise to construct the road on our street, little did we know that it would worsen our woes.
As the construction was ongoing, one of the members of the Community Development Association just got out of his residence to protest the nature of drainage that was being constructed. Most of the residents were novice to what he meant but when he explained it to every other person present, it became clearer.
Thanks for the expertise of that man, else we would have been dragged to what ought to be a blessing turned into a problem.
Dear friends, you sure have something in your possession that is worth sharing with others. So, don't look down on yourself or be waiting for when you have millions to render a help.
Mixed crop production is really very profitable. It is possible to produce crops simultaneously by cultivating different crops.
Actually we don't get anything to share but if we think a little we get a lot to share. Just use your intellect.
