From Challenges to Community: My Journey with Joe Cold Storage

Since 2017, being self-employed has been a journey of ups and downs. At first, it wasn't easy—especially after the second COVID-19 lockdown, when rising prices and uncertainties made things even tougher. But through it all, the unwavering support of my customers has been my greatest motivation.

It’s not just about selling products; it’s about the relationships I’ve built. Seeing people not only buying from Joe Cold Storage but also seeking my advice and showing me respect has given me the strength to persevere.

To some, "Joe Cold Storage" might just be a small business. But to me, it’s a symbol of hard work, resilience, and connection. Everywhere I go, hearing someone call out, "Hey Mr. Chicken, ki pe dir? Nou zouene biento!" reminds me of how far I’ve come and the community I’m proud to be a part of.

Thank you for making this journey worthwhile!

Sebastopol SSS: Learning for Life

Reflecting on my college years at Sebastopol SSS, where our motto was "Learn for Life," I can’t help but smile at the memories that flood my mind.

The excitement was palpable, and to this day, I still find joy in revisiting the saga that first captivated us through her enthusiasm. Respecting Life and Each Other Miss Jaya, our biology teacher, was another guiding light. Her lessons were rich with insights about life and the importance of r...

The Power of Positive Speech: Blessings and Goodness

In our journey of faith, the power of our words cannot be underestimated. Scripture repeatedly emphasizes the profound impact of our speech on our lives and the lives of those around us. When we choose to speak positively, truthfully, and refrain from negative speech, we position ourselves to receive God's blessings and goodness abundantly. Speaking Positive Things The Book of Proverbs, a treasure trove of wisdom, provides numerous insights into the significance of our words: - Proverbs 12:18 affirms, "There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing." Our words have the power to heal or harm, to build up or tear down.  - Proverbs 15:4 states, "A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but perverseness in it breaks the spirit." Speaking gently and positively can bring life and renewal to situations and relationships. - Ephesians 4:29 instructs, "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good ...

The Paradox of Progress

We earn more than our fathers ever did but we don't live richer lives. We are more educated than our fathers but we don't make wiser life choices. We travel faster and further than our fathers ever did but we know less about life. We have more technological devices than our fathers had but we don't stay more connected to our family and close ones. We have a thousand more friends and contacts than our fathers had but we don't feel more loved than they did. We have more facilities than our fathers had but we are not happier than they were. We are better off than our fathers in all aspects of life, but we are not doing better than they did.

We work more efficiently than our fathers did, yet we feel more overwhelmed by our responsibilities. We have more entertainment options than our fathers ever had, but we find it harder to enjoy simple pleasures. We live in more ad...
