How easily we slip into #depression. There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds. The worst type of crying isn't the kind everyone could see, not a wailing on street corners, not a #WhatsApp status nor other #SocialMedia post.  No, the worst kind happens in your soul and no matter the numbers of folks around, it may not be noticed, and then you sleep down-down even further into depression, when what you need at those moments is a #distraction. A distraction may not solve the problem, but it takes you away, far away from a thinking that is handicapped, so handicapped it cannot solve your problem either, rather leaves you in a pitiable mental & physical state. Many would love to help you if they knew it, but.... Sometimes, IT'LL TAKE YOU TO DISTRACT YOURSELF. It's The Wordsmith.

🖋️  Never take advantage of the lockdown to always ask for alms, do not suddenly turn to beggar, remember that the lockdown will soon be over but the impression lives on. 🖋️     Do not feel too big or ashamed to ask for alms or assistance if you truly need help, problem shared is half solved, so speak out and do not suffer in silence. 🖋️  Do not look down on anyone that asks you for alms, be your brother's keeper. Let us live for each other. 🖋️  Never feel bad if a particular person turns you down for help, you never can tell what they are passing through too, remember not to judge somebody by their appearance, don't judge a book by its cover. 🖋️  Learn to manage what you have now, and teach your children and loved ones living with you to do so. It is not compulsory to take three square meals, you wouldn't die if you don't, be disciplined. 🖋️  If you are in a position to help a fellow, do not wait until he/she asks. Do it with joy as unto the Lord Jesus Christ. 🖋

... A nd so i stumbled on a photo on the internet, it was on Twitter , i mean without mincing words; my favourite social media platform of all time. The original post accompanying the photo read thus;  "Where Are The Poets? Can Anyone Write Something About This Photo?" Quite typical of me when i surf the internet, my first goal is to find something that would inspire me to give back to where it came from, and not just take away. I ran through the attached comments (like a typical user would, in fact most times on social media platforms, you just rush to the comments section first to see reactions) with a zest to meet a few poets, and also to see what a few people have made out of the post. I was not surprised to find "The Good, The Bad and The Stupid"😊😊 It was beautiful to have found a couple of awesome literary works that i savoured. I never knew there were so many like me who cared about such things until i had had a personal interaction with the orig

"...This #peace is a direct result of #ignorance,  The truth yet unknown(where known, it's unaccepted, ignored or lacks enough substance) is the reason these deceitfully #ConstitutedInstitutions are still standing. And like I often say; 'A world that needed a God, got their gods!' With #revelation comes #clarity & peace,  With revelation comes #chaos & #war too. A war not borne out of #confusion, rather, one borne out of #frustration, arising from the refusal, naivety, and of having been oblivious of the truth. A war of #vengeance upon the #powerful merchants and vendors of deceit, who have perfected their plans ages before you were born. What they would have you know was long put out there, while what you ought to know is driven ever closer to extinction by the day. We say #ignorance is bliss, oh yes, true bliss! In a confused world, not for the lack of truth, but for the absence in these days, of its #fullproof, call it bodily proof and you wo

" R EGARDLESS , everything regardless. Now it will take a while to count from 1 to here, many seconds have gone down with years still to count. Uneasy is the head that wears the crown, but even more uneasy is a head that is full of dreams . If the size of our heads would reflect the size of our dreams,  this space will not suffice to fit mine in. -Regardless, everything regardless.- Dreams a-down aplenty, Dreams a-dawn a-more! If the hairs on our head would spell the ones which have come true, I may not boast an Afro, but the vulture has got nothing on me. -Regardless, everything regardless.- Like the cock that crows, not minding who's listening, and the dawn that breaks giving no care about who's watching, we rise to chase our dreams paying no mind to how long we've been running. -Regardless, everything regardless.- But like that proverbial child on his mother's back, for me, "running" a thousand miles has borne no diff
