Flashback

In the course of 2017, I encountered people, and whatever they whispered to me inspired the way I had to define life. 
Mirrored perspectives but with superior insight into my life goals, the target must stay in sight. 

The lady looked at me, his face beaming with rays of jubilation like a business guru who won a lifetime contract. 
He said, young man "Run your life as a business investment. 
There would be times you would lose and it will seem you lost everything. 
Other times you will stay afloat, you can neither sink deep nor gather momentum to shoot into the midst of the blazing stars. 
Nonetheless, those days would come when things will fall in their rightful places, and you would be on top of the whole world". 

Just like hearing the bell for change lesson from the strategic business lecture to life management skills, she launched into the deep. 
Though I could hear her I had to move a step up and listen in order to understand as I glued the pieces together with my homemade starch. She's not just down to earth but she threads with caution not to stumble. 
Introducing what she calls the 'In-Process-Out' theory, I simply could relate to her explanations. 
If my life was a company, what would be my value proposition that must translate into my unique selling propositions in every sphere I find myself. 
You have to get this straight she said "the value of your company (life) is your investment minus your output or profit. 
It's undisputed that a person with a plan is difficult to derail from the journey, so you must keep defining your life's vision until it gets smaller and focused. 
Create rapport, and be a people person because the kind of capital you need in the times ahead is human capital. 
You will need people to become sustainable but do not depend entirely on them, they might fail you".

That is my highlight!

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...

International Movement of Catholic Students (IMCS) PAX ROMANA,Ghana Federation

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... Moreover we recognize and work with all concerned men and women for joint action and reflection leading to a more just and equitable social order a...

Until death beckons

Life and death the inseparable pair In the former, all is fair Beyond the latter, we despair Ironically, some think otherwise The former and latter each happen once Whether fair or despair, we exist to pay the price From cradle to grave We live, both the fainthearted and the brave Life and death are a must  Move on, Press on, Live on Rise up and grind hard Take that bold step Be carefree, fear no mistakes Be grateful, stay faithful Growth fruitful, live happily Forgiving and Believing We may live long but we die in a dash Then everything will disappear in a flash Smile when you can and blush if need be Let's share the laughter Before dreams shatter And we don't matter anymore Hence, let our today matter more We have much, so life and death expect much in equal measure. Until death beckons, be life's beacon! Credit: Etsy
