FAITH


What a faith a fisherman must be having in the sea. He meticulously made his net, painstakingly mend broken ropes, moved to the heart of the sea and casts all his hard work into a terrain unknown even when all he sees from the surface of the sea was like nothing had happened.

Or such faith a little boy has in a river. He made his hook and stretched his line, sat patiently by the river side believing the flow will bring a fish along his line and into his hook even when all he hears was just the continuous splashing of water on the rocks.

Or such a faith of a stranded traveler in the road path. He determined not to leave the road but walk/stand by its side believing the road will bring a ride down to him even when all he sees from afar was just mirage.

Summary; Faith is a 100% physical affair… it is about reasoning, knowing you’re in the right place, giving your all without the slightest form of doubt and not minding the outcome. It is as simple as A…B...C!

EVERYONE CAN DO THIS!

Love Thought!


Of all the strengths of a woman, beauty make her strongest, character is next.
Of all the weaknesses of a man, love makes him weakest, passion is next.
 A woman’s weakness remains a mystery to me but I know a man’s strength is what first attracts a woman.
Let’s talk about love.

I detest a timeout with love
Cause no matter how clothed you’re
She drags you out in the cold and in tattered rags
No matter how high your shoulders are to the sky
She sways your knees to know the dust beneath your feet

She’s lonely, she’s needy, she’s poor and lost
A walk with her is to be a pauper
A dance with her is to be a clown
A swim with her is to first, fill an empty pool with tears
A fly with her is to give up backbone for wings
And a dine with her is to feed fat on thoughts

But her sweet voice, like that of the Sirens in The Odyssey, who can resist
When she desperately calls out through the wind
Only to confine hearts in luck and keys
“Come quick! Leave the sleep behind we don’t need it
Leave the bread and wine we won’t go hungry
Quick! Leave the coins, we won’t buy nothing
Dump the shield and the swords, we won’t be fighting”

I’ve heard the strong leave his strength this way
I’ve seen the wealthy leave his riches this way
I’ve heard the wise leave his craft this way
And the simple lose his innocence this way

Her sonorous voice, who can resist
As she set steps on lanes of no intentions
And lips on songs in praise of beauty...

"I’ve seen beauty show its sides in several places...
I’ve seen beauty in the ebbing of the sea, in the bowing of a rainbow, in the blooming of a petal and in the feathering of a talking bird.
 I’ve seen beauty show its sides in several places before...
In the innocence of a toothless child, in the falling of a waterfall, in the flowing of milk and in the whiteness of the snow…

I’ve seen beauty show its sides in several places…
In the thickness of a forest, in the caking of the clouds in the peeping of the sun and the hardness of a precious stones…

’heaven sent’, your face alone seems to birth them all
Like a believer will wait on the savior
Like a school boy will wait on school bus
And Like an arid land will wait on raindrops
Every day, I wait to behold your face…"

So she sings… and sing… and sing…
Till you forget the burden in a journey
And lost the warm memory of home.
To a soul piercing lyrics of beauty
Coming out from Love’s broken lips.

But you know what? I still love you!

SLEEP


Sleep slip through my eyes
To hide under my head rest
I’ve waited for shadows to disappear
For the dreams I long to bear
But like hide and seek
I play to seek sleep and have dreams

Sleep slip through my head rest
To hide under my mattress
I’ve waited to lay my bed
For the dreams I long to bear
But like children on a swing
I roll from right to left to seek sleep and have dreams

Sleep slip through my mattress
And flew to the rooftop
I’ve waited to set my windows free
For the dreams I long to bear
But like a cargo just from oversea
I count boxes demarcating ceiling to seek sleep and have dreams

Take my thoughts and give me dreams
Thoughts may be wrong, dreams are always not
Tired of hide and seek and the way I swing
I’ve let the windows free, please come in with the breeze
Take these thoughts from me, come with the dream you promised

A FALL!

In a Fall, you don't just look back or front as it is popularly said, you should actually smell or even taste the ground so that by instinct in future, you avoid anything that smells like it!

LIFE ANALYSIS!


Living the life you believe-in is as easy as shitting what you've eaten. But realistically many don't live the life they believe-in.
If you can link why your shit is green to that vegetable you've eaten then you should be able to link why your life is the way it is to what you believe-in.
The problem however isn't in eating or shitting, it is in not knowing what you've eaten... people do not know what they believe in so even if they do not like what they're shitting they still do not know how to change it from what they're eating. This is easy... you don't like how you're living and can't change it because you don't know what you believe-in.

She Turns A Gospel Singer After Years Of Prostitution... Halellujah!

The story of Caroline Sam, the gospel singer popularly known as Maheeda, is pathetic but inspiring.

She was raised as an orphan who hit the street at a tender age of 13 to fend for herself during which time she became a prostitute. In fact, Maheeda could not ascertain her real names because she was raised by foster parents whose name she adopted.

Now, things have changed as Maheeda, a mother of one, has turned her life and eventually became someone to reckon with in the music industry. She attracted attention to herself, not because her song was extra-ordinary, but because of the fact that she appeared weird so much that her almost unclad pictures were everywhere, and she was living big….

Recently, the ‘Naija Bad Girl’ as she’s used to be called, turned a new creature by giving her life to Christ, which has made her embrace gospel music as against the secular that shot her into the limelight.

TIGER WOODS IS BACK ON THE NUMBER ONE SPOT!

I am personally very happy for this..

 After years of trying, Tiger Woods has finally regained his ranking as the number one golfer in the world. Tiger today Monday March 25th won the Arnold Palmer Invitational for the eighth time, returning him to the top of the world ranking, a position he vacated in October 2010 due to his sex scandal, failed marriage and various leg injuries.

Just one week ago Tiger Woods announced his relationship with Lindsey Vonn. I see she's doing his body and soul a lot of good. Good for him!

Sometimes, This Is All It Takes:CONFIDENCE



A boy was asked to find {y} in this equation 2x + 3y= 12, if x=3 during a mathematics class after been taught the principles but he could not. “Why can’t you solve the problem?” the teacher asked. “I have a problem ma” the boy replied. “What’s wrong with you?” The boy stood up and told the teacher that he is been thinking of the problem his parents are having at home. This made the teacher sent him to the school counselor to have a session.

 The unsolved mathematics problem now had to go to his friend who stood up and could not say anything------ he could say nothing because first, he couldn’t solve the mathematics problem like his friend and, unlike his friend, he doesn’t know why he can’t solve the problem so he lost his confidence to speak not only because he couldn’t solve the problem but more pitifully because he doesn’t seems to know why (something about self).

You lost your confidence not because you don’t know anything about something but because you don’t know something about yourself. The first boy didn’t know the mathematics problem but he knows the home problem and that was enough for him to stand on his feet to speak. Confidence comes with knowledge, it is when you know that you can stand with your head high and talk about what you know.

No one knows nothing, in fact one of the biggest lies anyone can ever tell someone is “you know nothing!” everyone knows something----- at least something about self. It is in not being able to say what you know that you lose your confidence and it is in saying what you know that you gain it.

It is common that people just give in and lost confidence when they feel they don’t know enough about something. They simply ignore the little they know and all they know about self to start looking like they know nothing.

All you need to know to speak up is knowledge----- if you know anything about something and you need to speak, speak. If you don’t know anything about something and you need to speak, speak because you sure know something about who you are! A

Gay Couple Commits Suicide Over Marriage Problem

A gay couple who moved to Canada after the US laws failed to recognize their marriage has committed suicide few days apart in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Enriquez killed himself days earlier on Feb. 21.

Rodriguez: American Zero, South African Hero. An inspiring story of Sixto Rodriguez


Much is being said about the documentary, Searching for Sugar Man which has already picked up a PGA and Sundance Award and is considered a sweetheart darling who walk away with the Oscar on February 24th.

Swedish filmmaker Malik Bendjelloul filmed the story about how two diehard South African fans, Stephen Segerman, a former jeweler and journalist Craig Bartholomew Strydom joined forces to investigate how the singer “Rodriguez” really died. They were trying to confirm rumors that the American folk-political singer had killed himself on stage.

It’s been 40 years since Rodriguez’s album “Cold Fact” was released in South Africa and the songs became a healing balm to the people in opposition to their government’s oppression. Rodriguez’ music, lyrics were considered “protest songs.”  “Sugar Man” was the first of the track and it proved to have the most powerful and lasting effect. The lore is that the album reached South Africa when a woman brought home a copy for her boyfriend.

THE ART OF BAITING!


The art of baiting is a powerful art that involves an organism being at the top of creativity in gaining advantage over another organism. It involves an organism giving advantages or opportunity ignorantly and easily to another organism without the normal rigorous force it would have required. These ‘advantages’ can be as important as a decider between life and death.

The art of baiting has been with us as far back as history can remember and is in use in both animal and plant kingdoms. This is the only art that will make it look as if; a bird willingly leave the skies to be in a wooden cage or the
