The Change We Seek

I am persuaded that Nigeria is changing for the better; it may not be apparent yet, that is because the change is happening one family at a time. It starts with 1 person taking charge of his/her own life and then transmit that victory into another person's life (family member).  The home takes form and like a mold, churns out predefined pieces (well-rounded, emotionally-stable, loving, compassionate humans with a bright outlook to life). The saying that charity starts at home is true, but a house does not equate a home, a home is where you can scratch where it itches. This piece started out as a thought and it has grown on me now.  I want each of us to propagate this saying; Stop complaining about what is not working and Do something about it.My Life is too Small to be the Purpose of my Life; Stewardship is the Essence!

Original Song - Cynical

This is the lyrics of a song that I wrote a while back, decided to title it Cynical. I am still looking for a singer who will add melody to it and use it to bless humanity. If you have concrete ideas, please send an email. Inspiration There have been some low points in my life that I battled with depression, and this period was one of such. I was in the middle of my 'extra year' in the university, was working part-time with a publishing house, and was barely keeping it together. That distorted my view of the world dynamics a little. When I put pen to paper, this is what I came up with. CYNICAL I have become Cynical With all I've been through Though your Love has been there all along I've chosen not to be thankful anymore I hardly ever look forward To the time we've always shared Now I see the light, I change my ways Am pushing aside my busyness to be with you I remember the season When all I had is your Love But so many distractions...

Education Comment

I think, school shouldn't be a place where obsolete junk are dumped in my head but a place where my abilities are sharpened and channeled to benefit mankind. If that were the case, instead of suffering myself in science class in order to become an electronic engineer, I would have stayed in the creative arts and might have created a world-famous advert by now. Coulda, woulda, shoulda won't solve anything now, but for the young ones coming behind reading this, please stay in your area of strength. The williams sisters don't need to know any formula, they do what they do, and they are good at it. Same for Lionel Messi, Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Usain Bolt, Picasso, Martin Lawrence, Ali Baba, and a whole bunch of folks like that. School is not the only place you can be educated, it is way overrated. It is just a launchpad, a supposed leverage. Man was not made for the school, but the school was made for the man. Like the bushman said in the 1982 movie The gods Mu...

LIFE; A Brief

Lord, what is happening to me? I feel so numb and I don't understand. Is this feeling okay? What is the whole point if we live just to die? Why does it have to be now, and not decades later? What is the essence of life? What is the meaning of this brief stay on this side of eternity? I see folks with swollen red eyes, and others with dry eyes but pious looks on their faces and can't help but wonder what if... Where shall we go from here? How shall we prevent further occurence or are we doomed to suffer the same fate? Sons die, daughters die, fathers die, mothers die, young ones die, aged folks die, wives die, husbands too. The order in which they die however is not known by anyone but by God. This brings me back to my already futile quest-knowing the point of it all... We live, we die.Why is it that we don't really respond or show up to our folks when good things happen to them? Seems to me like we have taken those good things for granted because they happen every now and...
