Kalemberayu ndi wa ANTHU, ndipo inenso ndimakonda anthu. Ndikuganiza kuti anthu ndi osangalatsa. Ndimakonda kuyang'ana anthu amitundu yonse. Nthawi yanga yomwe ndimakonda ndikuwonera anthu. Anthu amachita zinthu mochititsa chidwi. Anthu amabwera m'mitundu yosiyanasiyana, ndipo aliyense ndi wapadera komanso wapadera kwa iwo eni.

Kalemberayu amandisangalatsa chifukwa imakhudzanso anthu. Koma, zili pafupi kuwerengetsa anthu, choncho osati ndithu chinthu changa. Koma, chiwerengero cha kalembera ndichofunika kwambiri! Zimatsimikizira kuchuluka kwa osankhidwa athu ku Congress. Imayika ndalama za federal pachilichonse kuyambira kukonza ma pothole kupita ku nyumba. Ndipo, zimapanga nkhani ILINSE, ndipo pofunikira, zimathandizira paubwino wadziko lonse. Ndimasangalala ndi zinthu izi, koma ndi chitsanzo cha ntchito yomwe timachita polumikizana ndi anthu. Chiŵerengero cha zigawozo n’chachikulu kuposa mbali imodzi yokha, ndipo pamodzi, tingathe kuchita zambiri!

Makamaka, kalemberayu amandikumbutsa za munthu mmodzi—Virgil G. Iye anali “wowerengera” m’kalembera wa 1980, kutanthauza kuti ankapita khomo ndi khomo kukatenga mayankho kuchokera kwa anthu amene anachedwa kulemba mafomuwo (papepala, m'masiku akale, tsopano mutha kuchita Intaneti!). Virgil anali munthu kuyambira pachiyambi. Anali ndi mawu aku Alabama ("Al-A-Bam-Ma" otchulidwa m'mawu anayi osiyana) ndipo ngakhale adakhala ku Aurora kwa zaka zambiri, adandiuza kuti sakufuna kusiya mawu ake chifukwa sankafuna kukhala. apa poyambirira. Mwamuna wake wankhondo adamubweretsa kuno, koma mtima wake udatsalira ku Al-A-Bam-A.

Tinakumana ndikugwira ntchito yoyandikana nawo, taganizirani zimenezo! Iye anali “mlonda wakale” ndipo iwo ankafuna kuti “ana atsopano” atengepo mbali, koma sanathe kudziŵa bwino lomwe tanthauzo lake. Ndinali "mwana watsopano" ndipo ndinkadziwa zomwe madera a kumpoto kwa Aurora amafunikira, ndinaganiza. Bungwe la NANO, North Aurora Neighbourhood Association, linali AMBUYE andale zamzinda, ndipo chilichonse chomwe NANO chimafuna, tinali nacho.

Virgil anali wolankhulira, ndipo Virgil ankadziwa zomwe ankafuna, nayenso. Ankafuna zinyalala ku Colfax. Ankafuna nkhokwe zobwezereranso paliponse, polemekeza mwana wake. Sindinamvetsetse bwino momwe adafera komanso momwe kukonzanso zidakhalira ntchito yachikumbutso ya mayi wosweka mtimayi, koma ndimalimbikitsabe kuti zinthu zibwererenso chifukwa cha iwo.

Ankafuna zinyalala m'tinjira. Imeneyo inali nugget yomwe tinagwirizana, mlonda wakale ndi ana atsopano pa block. Zosungira zinyalala zikusefukira. Palibe zinyalala. Zinthu zazikulu kwambiri kuti zisungidwe nkhokwe. Zonse izo. Tinkafuna kuti zonse zithe. Pogwiritsa ntchito mawu a Powerhouse Neighbocation Association, tidalowa muholo yamzindawu ndi mapulani okondwerera Tsiku la Dziko Lapansi ndi tsiku lochotsa zinyalala. Tinali ndi makina onyamula zinyalala kuti apereke magalimoto ndi madalaivala. Tinapeza anthu ongodzipereka kukwera m’mathiraki kukanyamula zinyalala. Tinali ndi chionetsero ndi anansi okalamba ndi achichepere omwe anali kutsekereza kumbuyo kwa magalimoto pamene ankadutsa m’maenje ndi m’mphepete mwa zinyalala, akumaima kuti atenge zinyalala zochulukirachulukira ndi kukondwerera chotolera chilichonse monga mwala wotulukira! Tidagwira ntchito Loweruka kuyambira 8 koloko mpaka masana ndikukondwerera ndi potluck weniweni, ndi mapoto ndi mapoto ndi makeke ndi mphodza zomwe zimayimira ophika abwino kwambiri ochokera m'dera lonselo. Ngodya iliyonse ya dziko lapansi inaimiridwa! uwu!!

Ndiye itafika nthawi ya kalembera, Virgil adadziwa aliyense. Kunena zowona, iye ankawadziŵa kuchokera m’kanjira m’malo mwa zitseko zakumaso, komabe, anali kuwadziŵa onse! Ndipo m'mawu ake a Al-A-Bam-Ma, adalimbikitsa aliyense wa oyandikana nawo kumpoto kwa Aurora kuti akhulupirire kalembera, ndikumuthandiza kupeza manambala olondola.

Ndipo ndili wokonzeka kubetcherana kuti ndiye kuwerengera bwino kwambiri komanso kokwanira kwambiri kumpoto kwa Aurora komwe kudakhalapo! Virgil anamwalira kalekale, zachisoni kunena. Mzimu wake umakhalabe mwa aliyense amene amamaliza kalembera ndikuwerengedwa. Monga momwe amanenera kuti "Onse-ya-onse amafunika kuyimirira ndikuwerengedwa kuti apeze zomwe mukufuna!"

Izo zinali apo, ndipo izi ziri tsopano, koma mawu ake amakhala owona mosasamala kanthu. Imirira ndi kuwerengedwa! Lembani mafomu anu owerengera anthu pa intaneti kapena inu nokha kapena chilichonse chomwe chingagwire ntchito, koma chonde imirirani ndikuwerengedwa!
