A PIECE OF BLACK




 I don’t know about other colors, but I know there should be a piece of black in all of us, just a piece. Without it, many people will suffer, others will starve, some might even die. Well, black here refers to all our negative attitudes. Yes! Our negative attitudes, and one of them is a piece, selfishness. We are drowning with people we are supposed to save, dying with people we are supposed to heal and crying with people we are supposed to cheer because we do not have a piece of black at that point. We are to first lay a good foundation for ourselves and later make ourselves better in order to help others reach their goals. Just like in an operating room, there are no guests or visitors allowed because the patient is going through transformation. If a house you are in catches fire to an extent, you find means of getting out then, you go for help for anyone in there, but if you try to save everyone at that point, chances are, you are all not going to make it. There are situations we must get out of in order to save ourselves and others as well and how we get ourselves out is our own problem. Once we get out, it becomes a duty for us to help others because we can easily move from selfishness to selflessness. We all need a piece of black at a point. Just a piece.

ARE WE THERE YET?

We crave for prosperity ,gender  equality ,freedom ,justice ,green pastures. We talk about each with  strong  force and anger ,but our attitude towards bringing all to reality is lackadaisical. Why is that so?. Are we waiting for someone to work on it for us? We haven't  reached our goals yet ,why have we relaxed? People still suffer ,others die because they don't have enough resources to survive and its now like we don't care anymore. We are comfortable with the current happenings because we want to be. We are just settling  for less. This is not the Africa I learnt about growing up. I know Africans wouldn't give up without a fight but here is the case nothing  similar  is being thought of. The fact that some leaders do not even believe in their people  and some people not  believing  in their leaders saddens my heart. What happened  to unity? What happened  to individual  prosperity?.Why is the rate of poverty ...

MIRACLE'S MIRACLE

             Whenever great people  tell us they had this type of childhood, we get surprised and thank God since we somehow benefit from their success.  They didn't  magically  become successful but rather through someone. We see a lot of these  kids everywhere  and ignore them meanwhile we are their miracles and are the ones to help them identify  their potentials ,better their skill set ,be their source  of motivation and educate them. Without all that ,they will bury their greatness  and become a prey  to inferiority  complex. They pray for better days ,they pray for miracles but there will be nothing like a better day until we make one for them. Their torn clothes are worn through  out the week but we work hard for luxury. We play a very important  role in their lives ,sadly, we don't even know it. They are not meant to be poor ,they have a bright future so we should not chang...
