Lest We Forget

It's a fact that we may face one of two challenges in this life. Some can be benign and subtle, others can be loud and conspicuous. It's sometimes convenient to apportion blames and deny reality or even give up.  But lest we forget our worth as a people in trying times. Lest we forget the dignity of life and treasures in each person. Lest we forget to respect and protect life. Lest we forget the deadly sting of our sins. Lest we forget our hope to live and grow. Lest we forget our responsibility to lead worthy lives. Lest we forget our resolve to give off our best this day. Lest we forget the truth that time is precious and that we have to value it. Lest we forget to make effective use of time this day. Lest we forget our duty to take care of ourselves and our environment. Lest we forget our commitment and duty to be good. Lest we forget the dream killers and the amulets in their smiles. Lest we forget the burden our constant complains places on our convictions.

Some Days

Some conversations are essential on some days. Some introspection and reflections are necessary. Sometimes we need these moments to relink and reconnect to ourselves and others. There are some days you feel the urge you should.  Other days too you feel like you shouldn’t.  Although some days you just don’t how, It's necessary to retune and refocus. It's a fact that the momentum you feel is real. So don’t hesitate to dream big when it comes to transformation. Be calm and collected when unsure, but never stop moving or making progress. As we stand at the threshold of change, may we be ever prepared to take steps in order to make profound transformation. Some days we just to remind ourselves of our values, our common wealth and the need to contribute to the well-being of others and our community as a whole. May your day be blessed.

Building the Future Together

The need to cooperate, dialogue, work together and care for one another is a relevant ingredient to building the future we want. In spite of the many stormy tides on the sea of our sails, sweeping across the globe 🌎, we still have recourse to value and respect each other and do the needful things to safeguard our planet. UN flag by John Isaac With the theme: "Climate Action for Peace" to commemorate the 74th anniversary of the U.N Day, we are individually invited to pay attention to the importance of combatting climate change as a way to protect and promote peace throughout the world. It is interesting to note that in our interlinked and interrelated world, we are all affected by each other's actions or inactions on how we use, manage and preserve our environment. And that is the more reason we should be concerned about Climate change issues and work together to address the clear threats it poses to international peace and security. That said we still need

Value Your Identity

The calm waves breathed another brief stroke of the beautiful breeze that morning. It's uneventful until one tall lanky sunburnt fellow walks to the gates of the linguist's house.  The linguist, an affable friendly son of KwesibankyΓ©, is a returnee with the accolade of a polyglot who has his way with languages. I was a bit surprised how the stranger, was able to locate our Linguist's house. And his ability to to locate his way to the linguist gates reduces our guesswork as we thought he was a regular guest. But from the strange aura surrounding him, signals that the man has news for our ears. Before everybody could begin the day, they directed a certain amount of attention to observe the man from a calculated distance. This man who shouted agoo! Agoo!! at the gates, before being ushered into the house by one of the linguist's sons, after taking three steps ceased to move. He stood in the middle of the house as if being commanded by the Gods of the land. Then we saw h
