They say it’s the best answer for a fool. But I say, it goes and does beyond proffering answers to a fool. Silence; the first option for the wise, and a big cover for the foolishness of the not so wise. Silence; the 7-letter word that wraths more than seven wonders. Even the Book of ultimate wisdom reveals that “If the fool will shut his lips, men will take him for the wise” Prov 17:28(Paraphrased). SILENCE IS NOT QUIETNESS; SILENCE IS THE ART OF SPEAKING WITH YOUR MOUTH CLOSED. Highly economical I tell you, and the prestige it brings none can compare. Some wonder, what really is the power behind this power? What spectacle is it that comes with its expression? I tell you, silence, more than another thing confuses your opposition, destabilizes his psyche, unsettles his already settled plans, thereby creating a state of imbalance within his mind and body, giving you an advantage over him if you will think and not just close your lips. Silence is calculative; it gives you the advantag

Just confirmed via Rueters that Ghana's President John Atta Mills is dead. He died in the early hours of this morning. The cause of death is still sketchy...but the 68 year old president has been ill for while. His office released a statement announcing his death. May his soul rest in peace.

Change, a NO to it is like telling water not to get wet. Change, the only similarity that exists amidst our many differences. Change, the one word that defies its meaning by remaining constant. Change, everyone partakes somehow, with the exemption of the Changer who Himself remains unchanged. Change, the one constant thing that exists in life. Change, even if you changed Change, it yet will remain unchanged. Change, that very growth we all talk about. Change, the dynamism that proves true existence. Change, the silent theory behind Respiration, Excretion, and other basic processes of a life. Dusk to dawn, east to west, south and up to the north, everything is changing. Look critically at the world around you, and you'll see what volume of change occur in every sphere. Change, once you try to understand it, you get less troubled about life, knowing that everything must undergo change. Don't blame it when it changes, don't get scared if it does, just WORK, WATCH, HOPE and PR

LIFE 'S LIVING ITS LIFE IN A HURRY....There's never enough time here, everything moves in a hurry, so bad it isn't wait

"We give you a free software and you inturn give us vital information about you life, your friends, your likes and dislikes. Even most times, you tell where you are at every point in time". I'm sitting, am standing, receiving lectures, am on the plane, off to the UK... All in the name of status updates, we letting out some very private details about yourself. Like the words of a captor, whose captives are in ignorant captivity,These were the words of a man i heard over the media... I'll love to withold his name for the sake of my medium. Permit me if these lines put together sounds like an idiom. All in the name of fighting terror, the world is now in error. A man's life is monitored all about the place,with CCTV's stationed everywhere that is somewhere. In the banks,stores,hospital,schools,airports,eateries,and even worse of all i found one in a public toilet. There's hardly any privacy in our world today. I was only trying enjoy myself with the GTBank

...Sing like no one's listening Dance like nobody's watching Talk like not a soul is listening Imagine a world of just you, and there'll be no reason for pretence. Imagine a world where its just you and there'll be no one to impress. We've faked so much already, we now can't really tell what we like from what we don't. We've lived another man so perfectly, treated his illness so wonderfully, and left our true self and its weaknesses hidden so carefully. Forgetting so easily that the only true person we can be is us, even bodily. Imitation is the easiest way of Flattery, Being your true self is the fastest way of getting to perfection. LOSE YOURSELF(say no to pretence), LIVE IT LIKE ITS ONLY YOU AND NO ONE'S WATCHING. Its the only way we can get to know our own self. Be yourself, Show yourself(discover your flaws) and treat yourself(making right what's wrong about you). Note: If you've not made mistakes, then its clear you're playing

I may not be a fast walker, but I won't walk backwards. I may not win the match or score a goal, but I won't score myself. I may not win the war or kill an opponent, but I sure won't shoot myself. I may not be in the frontline of the battle, but I won't sit back at home. I may not have all the words to say to her, but I won't keep quiet or hold back the one syllable I've got in my head. I may not be the hero, but I sure won't get killed in battle. I may not have it all, but I won't lack at all I may not get it done, but not like folding my hands and not start at all. We cannot do everything at once, but we can do something at once. Some say; "Its Do or Do not, there's no try". But I say; "Every Do started with a try" If anything, one thing I'll never do in my life is GIVE IT UP BEFORE I EVEN START AT ALL. Be a fighter! Be a starter! You'll be surprised, IMPOSSIBILITY lives only at the point called START. ᶥᵗˢ the 'W
