LAUNCHING DeeP

If you went fishing and every fish you caught was a fingerling, all you needed to do was to launch deep!
Big Wins are mostly deep deep down; those on the surface were already discovered!

Many of us have dreams/goals (fishes) we want to achieve within a period of time. No doubt about that, but how do we approach such dreams?

The fisherman is not in the sea with a mindset of getting fingerlings to rear (he doesn't have a pond); his aim is to get big fishes to indicate that he has gotten that which he went out for (achieving the goal and not compromising with it). Indeed he will be glad to have caught bigger fishes.
Your set goals you want to achieve (the fishes you want to catch) must not be played with. Playing with your dreams practically means you're playing with your life. The worst case scenario is not having a dream!

The approach and or the methods you are using to achieve your goals is very important! You can dream as wide as the ocean but if you cannot ride a canoe, you cannot sail to fruitful zone of the ocean (your dream).

You either have to learn how to drive a canoe or you employ an expert in canoeing in order to achieve the target you're aiming to reach.
It doesn't matter the size of your dream; what matters is the size of your methods and skills in achieving such dream.
It doesn't cost you a penny for dreaming, but it will cost you millions (not just financial) to achieve that dream.

And so if the methods you're applying do not give you the expected results, you have to change your methods and in changing your methods, you're LAUNCHING DEEP.

You cannot achieve your dreams in a silver plater, if it becomes easier in achieving such dreams, then it is probably a dream of yesteryear which is yielding results because the dreamer had started working on it.
That is not to scare you anyway. When we have the right skills, the right motivation, the right methods coupled with passion, commitment, a determined heart and mind with perseverance as a friend, you're good to go.

God is always with you! He wants you to succeed; play your part and you're winning.
Embark on your dream journey; do not forget to launch deep if need be!

Giving the giver that gives you peace and love from the bosom of the size-less heart all the praise  We are matching up to the ends of the earth to make sure that our task of discipleship really goes aboard; this is the title of our hymn “LIBERATION FOR PEACE”    The Holy Spirit knows boundaries; he cannot be limited in his own jurisdiction. So moving on to proclaim that which we have been taught by the teacher, we shall spearhead the action and affirm someday to come “THAT CHRIST MAY BE IN ALL” Not forgetting to promote the student Apostolate among students in higher education, in the Church’s mission and in the world; we came into existence to continue preaching and teaching the word that have life in itself to manifest wonderful and marvelous things according to the Will of the creator, Our Father...

PEN

This isn’t an acronym. It is a powerful tool. It is blunt but has altered the patterns of history with unequivocal writing success. It has survived all the defining moments through the centuries Ranging from the early reed, quills, and dip pens to the contemporary ballpoint, fountain, and felt pens. History has it that, all users demand a special pen based on the pending purpose of use There is this status symbol attached to any kind of pen that has ever been manufactured. M. Klein and H. W. Wynne had received a US patent for the fountain in 1867. But as early as the 10 th century, the pen had existed.  And until this day, it has metamorphosed through many phases and designs. One of my favourites and most used pen from the 20 th to this century has been Michaels Bich’s Bic pen that was invented in the 1950s. It is simply elegant and mighty. The sword could see itself sharp but the pen is supreme. Talk of brainstorming sessions that led to generati...

Tattered Dreams

They played the part yet plot the pact. Instead of repair, they lead in the shadow to rip the earth; Our gods are not to blame but them. They have betrayed our ancestors, Posterity can wait no longer. Arriving from yonder, they have come to judge our every move, To the letter in every decision backing our move. Dear Mother, my honour is stained and tattered! To where has my father departed? It seems our collective dream has shattered, The pieces pierced our feet and bruised our skin. My siblings' wail but the elders make merry. Our village is lurking around wealth, But our daily bread is locked up in the vault. We dread treading the path to revolt, And gathering momentum outgrow our ill-health. This is not the future we dreamed of. Our dreams, precious like the mineral that has taken our place now. The elders paraded the corners of my street with pseudo promises. We’d believed for a moment but our springs quickly dried up, And they silently masterminded the raid to rip our homes...
