Thank You

A year ago, someone was happy. Someone was sad, a year ago. Somebody is grateful for some support you gave them a year ago. Another is happy for your thoughtfulness. It's possible that someone still grieves about an episode that they wished never happened. It's probable that though the competition to live is tasking, somebody is delighted you were there. In our survival match in life, And beyond our bread and butter issues, Encouragement is vital in this interconnected web. So this started with an idea. The thought to reach out. The desire to stay connected with you. And though I might have lost count of it, I wish to thank you for reading these messages. So, I specially dedicate this 1000th message published on my blog to you. Thank you for your interest and support. I admire you and wish to remind you in this season that you are the reason I say people are people because of people. Thank you. Greetings ©KYB ✍🏿21/12/19

Traffic Tales

Credit: Alarmy photos Around this time, The tall tails of traffic trips, With varying tours of tickets. Around this time, A teaming trendy tally of travellers, Still treks to Tema station area, To transact the Timeless tunic and tasty tuna trades. Around this time; The tilting sluggish motions, Tickles temperaments of transporters, From Tamale, Takoradi, Tefle, Techiman, Tokroanu, Tutu, Tumu, and Tutukpene, To tell the traffic tales of these trades. Around this time; The trickery of the tricksters' increases, With tangible troubles on those in transit, Who tabulate their transactions in turns. Yet, around this time; Revellers from other transmission zones, Join commuters to terminate their tiredness, By walking through the shades of these seasonal truce. Around this time again; Tumbling prices, Threatens to shoot temperatures up. Yet, those with technical tact, Still dare to trace their routes to Tudu, Bustling with trendy annual traf

The Calabash Cheers

Image
 A light-brownish Calabash Is the love of many homes It is the cup for many mouths, And a friend of many traditional drinks, It is also a lad to many patrons at the village bar. Somehow it's uncharitable towards shaky hands. It is uncaring to those with blurred vision. And those with wobbling holds. A Calabash essentially deserve care. With it's multiple utility, It's amazing how the Calabash Should be stranded in this case, Of offending the creative city drinkers Who prefer to acquire transparent cups. But whatever the case, Calabash keep secrets, Of the song styles of the xylophone, It carefully hides its content from others, But shows it to the occupier of the sky, The Calabash is a valuable custodian of the goodies of it's patrons, However, the clash of intoxicating mixtures cannot be blamed on the loyal spirit of the Calabash. Yet, a good defence, Is to try holding it with care and style. Yes! Hold your Calabash with care,

Keep Your Peace

Take care of your own emotions. Take care of your temperament especially when trouble brew. Take care of your words when the current of anger blows swiftly through your heart. Take care of your heartbeats when unexpected events or matters come to the fore. Sometimes it's good to hold your fire and listen to yourself a bit. Other times, it best you keep your peace and stability in silence. But in all, kindly keep a sane balance of your life with a smile. Don't expect to be understood always, Nevertheless, make it a point to communicate your needs and desires clearly. As trying to survive and thrive, kindly remember to be good.

Breathe Life

Whatever happened to you today, However you feel about that event, Whenever you wish to give up, Wherever your fear leads you today? Remember there is something precious in you. Remember there is a powerful energy in you. Remember there is an enabler within you. It's an amazing gift embedded in you. It's the breathe of life. It's more than the oxygen & carbon dioxide affair, It even goes beyond the quest for survival. It's a grandiose mandate to navigate through here. Regardless of your situation and stress levels; Beyond your limitations and lamentations; Distant from the confusion and controversies; You still have the duty to simply breathe. You have the opportunity to take a deep breathe in order to be okay. Survivors like you Don't Quit. So kindly breathe vitality in your life. Even as you breathe and think of solutions.

Unexpected attention in a day can be an amazing or terrifying experience. But having gone through this day, it's my fervent hope that  you'll never imprisoned yourself by any perception or preconception. Never allow any limitations to prevent you from reading the signs of the times. So, kindly be observant of the twist and turns of this new era of redemption, in order to see the unfolding of God's plan for you. Greetings ©KYB ✍16/12/19

I Wish We Knew

I wish I knew, I wish you knew, I wish we all knew, The essence of this circle. I wish I know I wish you know, I wish we all know, The truths in these confusion. I wish I knew, I wish you knew, I wish we all knew, The types of sleep. I wish I knew, I wish you knew, I wish we knew, Where the souls goes? When the soul leaves? And the truth about life. I wish we all knew, The dynamics in these wishes. I wish we all knew the inconsistencies in the shades. I wish we all knew The relevance of our tradition.  I wish we knew, The value of our unique identity And live the duty of these wishes in time. 14/12/19 Community Centre, Kudje-Buem
