Happy Independence Nigeria!

Using this medium to wish all proud Nigerians a wonderful 50th Independence Anniversary. I'm proud to be a Nigerian and this is indeed a time to be thankful despite the hitches.

Nigeria is a blessed country speaking of mineral resources, human resources and a high potential for growth.

Looking at it glass half-full, it could have been worse than this but God's unconditional grace stills keeps holding her strong and rocksolid.
We are everywhere, still standing ROCKSOLID, No shaking...You just watch the Naija brand grow past world standards.

God bless Nigeria!

Good People, Great Nation

So I decided I'll share the reason why I haven't been so all consistent to sharing the usual fresh talks on this page which you could give another name called 'Excuses'.

Excuses they say devalue a man so I'm not going to tell you I've been busy of late or not had much time to myself or that I didn't have access to the internet for a while. hmm...somethings sounds so obvious a'int it?

I won't even try to explain that, its definitely not necessary as I know for a certainty that you've been inspired from this blog.

Would like you to check out my latest post on the Raw Talk page.

Code 419

Never felt better as I type this words. This is one of the spots where my passion resides. Writing to bless, sharing to elevate, getting those feedbacks...nothing can beat that.

Don't know who to blame for this, whether the government, family system or whatever...but its alarming the number of fraud mails I've been getting these past few weeks. Some with very eye-catching offers that any greedy person would fall for.

Seriously I almost laughed off my seat when I read a particular guy's story telling me he was the manager of a bank and discovered some unclaimed funds in a particular account he was managing for some former politicians and that it had this outrageous sum of money in it and he felt he could transfer it to mine.
I don't want to bore you with details but to cut the long story he proposed we share 60-40 and I'm like what is running through this dude's mind?

I know most of these people don't care but I know the reply I sent him sure had a fragment of impact. Its just sad that its on the increase, talking about fraud and scams... but really who is to blame?

Everyone just wants that 'Big One-time Hit' and most don't want to pay the price of Work. 'No food for lazy man' adage is just a fallacy to some...The lazy man evens eats better and looks healthier than the hardworking one.

May God help us all...

Award Winner!!!...Story to tell

Haha! Sure you're wondering who the award winner is...We'll soon get to know

Over a month ago, a piece was commemorated to the edifying of mankind. Town and Gown was present, dignitaries were happy and got to the event place at the speed of a mouse click.
Dress code was strictly Denim, even the interior decoration was denim...Wow!

Events kicked off as the months rolled by and it was the delight of the visitors to come pay a visit to the monumental piece and they were never dissapointed. They  always left lighter in the heart and stronger in the mind. In other words, the grass was green and sheep always came to graze.

But before long, the owner got occupied and commitment dropped. This was annoying...so this was what he did...


You like stories ooo, see how you so concentrated on the sweet story line...I bet I have talents right?
Ok just want to say how sorry I am for not posting much of late...In fact I'm the award winner for the award of Uncommitted blogger of the month.

But I betcha its all for the good cuz I'll be back soon and with a bang!

What?!!!

You will soon know why that title came to be.

 Before I tell you why, lets make sure of something...You have eaten this morning right? Or...ok you're going to eat sometime later today or at most tomorrow, right?

Well, its really essential to feed, I mean its needed to keep body and soul intact. I support you eat right too you know. But Do you know something...I feel uncomfortable saying this facts but its for you and I to know and I think my next note on the Raw Talk page will be on this important issue to human existence.

I read something on Yewande's blog and that was what motivated this write-up. The statistics are quite alarming though.

The World Health Organization estimates that one-third of the world is well-fed, one-third is under-fed one-third is starving- Since you've entered this site at least 200 people have died of starvation. Over 4 million will die this year.
In the midst of these some of us abandon that cold food from Tantalizers because we feel its not good again (afterall I can afford another one). You pass by that beggar on the street all in the name of your they-should-get-a-job-and-stop-begging-mentality. maybe you should ask how many graduates have a job now before you shut your windows on them in your cool A/C ride.


Well well...this is probably just a teaser to my upcoming note and I have a feeling I haven't done much justice to my note on 'Rewrite the scripts'. Its so far the my 2nd most-read article and I feel I could beef up the contents. But till then...stay hooked @ moi frequency.

Fresshhh!

Writing is fun especially when the inspiration keeps coming.

Knowing that someone is going to be blessed by what you share is also really encouraging too.

But when someone now tells you that your write-ups have blessed them, that could make you so never want to stop cuz the main essence of whatever we do should be to add value.

People this days seek something new, something different from the usual. Its the reason you refresh that Facebook page every-time to see something different.

Imagine if the page you saw last week was the same thing yesterday and also today, you'll so hate going to Facebook.

Or imagine if you kept hearing the same news on TV everyday, you'll hate TV definitely.

That's man for you. We're built for change, we appreciate change, we crave for it though at-times we day-dream and never rise to effect that change we seek.

Change is sweet but the process to see it work for you requires you to work. The world is changing. You are changing either better or worse.

If you choose to accept what you see, then get ready to live with the negative change that follows. 

Explore!   Discover!    Appreciate!    Do it different!    That's the essence of life.

Life is good...Life isn't fair...Either ways you're right...I'll pick the former...Its up to you to make your choice.

My calendar has a quote for September that says: 

"to discover new lands we must consent to lose sight of the shore" - Andre Gide

That makes my job easier here, so in essence I say, get tired of normal, be adventurous and you might just discover a new side of you.

Now in a new month, the Ember months are here again.

Wasn't it some few months back you made a resolution for the Year 2010. How have you lived up to them. hm...Thats if you remember them actually. Ok, just to create the awareness for Nigeria's Independence which is 30days away.
You know they say a fool @ 40 is a fool forever but what one one at 50. Its sad the stage were still in.Thanks to our wonderful men in high places. But there's hope because you are, there's hope because we are, there's hope if we choose to make a change and join hands to make Nigeria what it should be.

You will choose not to be just another statistic but a force to be reckoned with. When history is made reference to, your name shall be mentioned...because you chose to stand-out, because you dared to think differently, because you knew your worth, because your foundation and trust was placed on God and because you explored the depths of your God-given potential.

You are unique, You are Y.O.U (Your Own Uniqueness) as seen in a friend's blog.

Happy New Month! @ moi frequency...*wink*
