A Stammerer's Stamina

Image
In the sudden breathing gaps of their conversation, a strange calmness stole the show. I couldn't tell what Salo was telling Solo at the Saloon in that impregnable span of seconds. But I could sense Salo's stunning stammered gaps,   swallowed some sweet words that strike emotions. Could it be that some stories are best shelved? Is it always the case that some tales are buried in seasonal sighs of people. Is it true that some efforts are ignored? Were your good efforts ridiculed and loathed?  Are your positive deeds being disregarded? Are you being discredited with heavily edited or shyly whispered rumours? Are there louder perspectives than yours? In this space, a lot of stories are deliberately being told about the franchise of our smiles and tears. Indeed, the Sun and all the mysteries of existence scream that there is far more than we know. But whatever is happening to you, kindly save your breath for someone out there recognises your efforts.  Someone here is in

Dear GOD

Dear God,  Ever merciful to a broken humanity, Kindly fill us with your blessings anew. Please stretch your healing hands on the afflicted. Be pleased to console your grieving children and be charitable to strengthen those in pain. For those forgotten and ignored, For those who thirst for love and the vulnerable, For those who are hit hard by this pandemic, For all who experience fear and anxiety, And for those who are dying slowly, In your mercy, protect and grant them peace of mind and spirit. Grant good health. Grant solace. Grant wisdom to all. In your compassion, teach us to care and connect with our conviction to do the right things. Bless us with the insight to appreciate every moment of our lives.  And graciously enlighten us to always value each other and work towards a better world. Please, bless and preserve your children this day, I pray. 🙏🏿🙏🏿 I wish you a great day. Continue to be safe and Remain Blessed.  Greetings🌸 ©KYB ✍🏿13/08/2020

Make Time

Image
Make time to smile & laugh. Make time to reflect & recollect. Make time to relax & unwind. Make time to cry, wail & weep. Make time to pray & thank your God. Make time to appreciate people in your life. Make time to connect, reconnect & reach out. Make time to listen to the sun & moon tales. Take time to enjoy the rhythms of life. Take time to link up with your soul. Take time to keep your balance on this path. I wish you a blissful weekend. Stay safe. Remain blessed. ©KYB ✍🏿07/8/2020

For God & Country

Image
There are many reasons to quite being good. And yet, there are very significant justifications why you should keep doing your best wherever you go. I appreciate your good efforts despite everything. I still admire the fact that you have not given up. I respect the fact that you are still striving in life. So puff out your fears, uncertainties, and worries. And always remember that your own resolution to succeed is more relevant than your troubles. As the late Dr. Doris Yaa Dartey constantly reminded me to "hang in there and not give up" I'd like to entreat you to always also stand firm. Remember that your good efforts will yield fruits one day. Remember to write your own story of excellence with the inks of your sweat.   In the meantime, kindly appreciate yourself, even as you relax with the evening tides. Pro deo  Pro patria(for God and for country). Greetings from me to you. ©KYB ✍🏿06/08/2020

The rise in the counts on this contours gives us an anxiety headache of an uncanny fear. But even as we stay alert on this curve, Maybe we should all take greater care of ourselves. I mean, kindly: Take care of your mental and emotional health. Take care of your spiritual and physiological needs. Take care of your personal life and of people. Take care of your neighbours and those who look up to you in various ways. Take care of the things that improve your life. Take care of those beautiful memories. Take care of your dreams and treasure those who pray for you always. Contours of Uncanny Fear Just take care and stay safe.  Kindly stay safe and be strong. ✍🏿KYB © 18-06-2020
