Burden of Wishes

One thing that might inundate our ears in this season is nice decent wishes of goodness. Yes! It's reasonable to be bombarded with these wishes from friends and loved ones. It's even possible to feel the pressures of these wishes breathing through our resolutions. The wishes expressed as a strong desire or hope for something that may or may not probably happen, or for the betterment of our lives in the areas of health and progress among others, generally requires action or a commitment to act. This does not mean, I am discounting the power of the choicest words in the wishes. But to confirm the fact that we've got work to do in every wish, desire, hope, intention, longing, and yearning. Basically, the beauty of these wishes carries a burden of responsibility to work to ensure their fruition. On this note , Dear Reader, kindly permit me to humbly wish you well in your endeavours. Allow me to wish you good health now and in the coming year. Let me also wish you inne

Gift of A Smile

Special occasions come for us to relive our worth. Lovely moments remind us of this basic imperative. Besides existence, Health is the greatest gift to have. Although, Patience is the greatest quality to have, Contentment is the greatest wealth to keep. With the precious gift of life, kindly give yourself the gift of five minutes of introspection in gratitude for everything. Keep off your worries and give yourself the gift of self-love, care, and optimism. Surround yourself with enough creativity, laughter, music, dance, leisure and other artistic activities. Like the stars adorning the sky, kindly wear that beautiful smile for all that you have become. And do give permanence to your words by being your best in all your dealings. Cheers to you. Greetings from me to you. ©KYB ✍🏿26/12/19

A Season's Greetings 

Amidst the correct carols choruses, Beyond the commemoration of this celebration,  And besides the cheerful wishes, May the reason for the season never escape us. May we reach out to others more and work together for greater peace May we care to lessen the creed of greed, and chaos that encourages needless deaths. And may we be more compassionate and concerned about the little little things of life. I wish you the best of this season. Remain Blessed and Stay Safe.  Greetings ©KYB ✍🏿25/12/19

A Good Name

What's in a name that people should hear? What's in your name that confers honour on you? What's in a name that bestows power on the bearer?  A good name breathes a unique identity on us. A bad name comes with it's different cloak too. Whatever is in a name? Whatever meaning your name might carry? Regardless of the burdens or privileges in your name; the fact is that names bestow responsibility on bearers. Names create continuity and extend divinity to bearers. It is certain that we all have unique names. Names that may sound strange, distinct, familiar, funny, interesting and yet beautiful. But a good name blesses our memory with quality smiles. Though I might not know the real meaning of your name, what I do know is that there are purposes and duties in our names, which challenges us to live in a certain way.  So let's find these purposes and live them. Yes! You can change your name if it does not resonate with the true purpose of your quest. But mi

Good Expectation

We had high hopes of having a wonderful meal during one of the Christmas in the village. Then the big fat fowl we put under the basket for the feast escaped and we were miserably disturbed. But somehow, luck smiled on us when we rearrested the fowl after a hot chase. I honestly didn't know how to explain myself, since we were asked to fetch water from the stream but we decided to play around the house, which made the sacrificial fowl escaped. Similarly, in life, we all subtly expect things to go untoward especially at crucial moments. But like the weather, plans can change midway. And the outcome can be something else. We sometimes fret and burden ourselves with what if we just stayed put and didn't act. We may face many disappointments in life but a good expectation is to expect the best and yet expect nothing. We should hold on tightly to our values and keep faith in our focus on the goal. So kindly, stay resolute and true to yourself, And be cheerful and careful.
