Creative Habits

Are we losing ourselves because of work? Has our interconnectedness suffered because of our busy schedules? Well, many of us are caught up in work and desire to make enough money. In our quest to survive through these hard times, we have inadvertently lost touch with ourselves. We are not only missing out on the very essence of our lives but we have also robbed ourselves of delight in leisure and recreation. There is a need today, to consciously make it a consistent practice to dive into our creativity. It is critical to make time to connect with our being in order to relieve our purposes. So kindly untangle your mind from all the noises, confusions, and troubles. Gently breathe in and out for your relaxation. Be excited about the present moments. Train your heart to recreate happiness, And focus on what really matters. Wishing you a blissful weekend. Greetings ©KYB ✍7/12/19

DEMOCRACY OF ELECTION

πŸ•Έ Did I hear the Democrats belch? Did I hear the Patriots chuckle? Or did I hear the hissing of the Nationalists? We have heard and overheard their loud pleas for votes by the various voices. We have listened to their hourly sweet persuasive words and reasons in our cottages, hamlet, villages, ghettos, towns, and cities. We debated the possibility and impossibility of their views and propositions. And they all begged for our votes or endorsement after telling us how they uniquely love us while mocking and exposing the sins of their opponents. But what none of them is telling us is their true motive for seeking power or wanting to stay on in power. The terrible truth, however, is that our leaders are seeking to be Lords instead of being the sensitive Servants they ought to be. A lot of interests come to play in the scheme of affairs, and I doubt if this democracy of elections is actually helping us address the real challenges we face as a society. It is my prayer that we gr

Farmers Sweat, Farmers Hope

There are many untold stories from the farm. A lot of the stories of care for the seedlings are still not told. The copious sweats and efforts of the hopes of farmers are missed to the final consumer. The hustle and tussle of carting the goods from the farm to the market are sometimes untold. The feelings and the reality of getting returns on the investment on the farm are unsaid. The overwhelming dose of fertilisers and pesticides used on the farm is sometimes unsaid. The poor quality of soil and the burden of many farmers still using crude technology is untold. The farmer's dilemma of GMOs, unstable prices, diseases, climate change, and post-harvest losses are often oblivious to many at the table. On a day like this, we all ought to pause to reflect on how far our agriculture has come 35 years after introducing the award schemes for our farmers in Ghana.  There is no doubt that trends in the agriculture industry today are fast changing.  It is a challenge that offers t

In all your effort through the halls of this time, Continue echoing the wishes of your dreams And align with the earnest desires of your soul. Be strong and be good always. And may your deeds speak for itself, and your dedication leads you to new gates. Remain blessed. ©KYB ✍🏿5/12/19

Every Smile😊

A smile is worth keeping because it's precious. A smile conveys an unsaid hope in these moments. Though there may be many shades of smiles, profound smiles exalt our bonds. I am oblivious of the hurting scenes of your history, and your harrowing experiences; But I am glad you are able to wear a smile. I am happy you are able to rise up to the task. I am pleased you've mustered the courage to live. I am thankful you are able to show up with a smile to face your challenges. I am gratified for those who looked out for us. I am grateful for those who went the extra mile to care. I am thankful for the opportunity we get to do what we do every day for humanity. I am appreciative of the support you give to others from time to time. I am grateful for every leaf that waves at us; For every ray of sunshine that brightened our path; For every sweet-smelling rose and other flowers; For the precious air we breathe in this mile; For the stars, clouds, and the various weather

The Butterfly Story

Image
A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to squeeze its body through the tiny hole. Then it stopped as if it couldn't go further. So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bits of cocoon. The butterfly emerged easily but it had a swollen body and shriveled wings. The man continued to watch it, expecting that any minute the wings would enlarge and expand enough to support the body. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around. It was never able to fly. What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand: The restricting cocoon and the struggle required by the butterfly to get through the opening was a way of forcing the fluid from the body into the wings so that it would be ready for flight once that was achieved. Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our live
