FINISHING THE UNFINISHED AGENDA

Image
We heard the merits and demerits in our lamentations. We are aware of our deadly stereotypes nibbling at our progress.  We are aware of the benefits working together for the common good will inure to us, but we prefer the perks and expensive money from our colonial masters.  We are aware of the risk and toils our forefathers went through to get us here, but we appear to have betrayed their worthy cause. We live in the sunshine of our graceful wealth and yet we are the least beneficiary of these abundant gifts.  We're aware of our own failings and the forces that work against our efforts to integrate and stay united.  We are also aware of our own acts of petty politicking that are working against us.  It's a fact that our liberation struggle is still on and we have an arduous task to finish the unfinished agenda of our liberation.  As Robert Nestor Marley echoed in his Redemption Song, we all have a duty to "emancipate ourselves from mental slavery, none but our

Progressive Mindset

Image
We have a common background because we're the same people with different faces; We have established cults of an institution that perpetuate our progress but are we all living the values in our professed ideals?  In the context of who we are, where we are coming from and where we've got to in terms of where we're going, there's more room for improvement.  So long as our needs keep changing; So long as our aspirations keep changing; We need a sustainable progressive plan to revolutionize our economy, our agriculture, our education and our mental attitude, that should inform the way we do politics in every sphere.  Our politics should move from the petty divisive approach it has used over these years and be allowed to breathe some refreshing revival into our focus and thinking.  May God be our help in developing lasting values that will make our economy resilient and progressive. Remain Blessed. 🙏🏿 First Published on 24th May 2016. ©KYB ✍🏿 24/05/21

Making it Right

Image
There is nothing wrong with good planning. There is nothing wrong with expecting the best. There is nothing wrong about expecting the unexpected. There is nothing wrong with fixing our excesses and the things that must be fixed. There is nothing wrong with correcting our incorrectness.  There is nothing wrong with being prepared. And there is nothing wrong with seeking relief. Keep being your best in whatever you do. I wish you a glorious day.  Greetings from your son-brother-friend...: Kwesi Yirenkyi ©KYB ✍🏿11/05/2021

☄TITLES IN TITLE☄

Image
Every name has a meaning and a reason. Anyone with a name assumes some form of repute or responsibility in any society.  The meanings ascribed to each name differ.   Often the accolade in some names come with titles. Although this generation is accused of having an overbearing sense of entitlement to every right, perhaps it is vital to interrogate the whys.  That said,  it is instructive that people with titles of claim and titles of qualification lives.  There are titles of fame and pompous titles self-worth.  There are titles of honour and titles of recognition and reward.  There are titles of appreciation that somehow makes nonsense of distinct titles.  There are needless titles of class that only implicate our desire to serve.  There are funny titles of the prestige we either acquire through our desire for attention. Our actions to influence things in certain areas with these titles even chase us to the grave.  Even though these titles are supposed to serve a purpose in

On This Street

Without surmising to know things we are ignorant about, humility is required for us to live ethically. Showing profound concern for each other is vital since all of us will someday vacate this street. We can inch closer to the heavens by making our homes and society a haven of love for one another.  Take care on this Friday street.  I wish you a wonderful weekend.  KYB ✍🏿®26-03-2021

New Consciousness

Knowing what we know, and knowing what we perceive often, is good. Knowing what we like to know, and knowing what we ought to know, is better. But knowing the hidden truth about our life and knowing the TRUE reasons behind our being through all the changing seasons is best. 🌱🌿 Greetings.  ©KYB ✍🏿27/04/2021
