If you think you can, then you can.
It is sincerely unfortunate to know that we are most times our limits. A better way of saying this is, you are the limit you set for yourself. Over time i have always thought about how a man will rise to a certain point in life and then get stuck at that point. There will be no level of advancement whatsoever, no increase, no upgrade. But then most times these limits aren't above man's capacity or should i say they are most times orchestrated by the man himself.

Social media and its positive side
The presence of social media has added a lot of tremendous achievements to the media world at large. Its value and relevance can't be undermined. The rate at which it gradually revolved and evolved has been alarming. There is virtually no place on earth the presence of social media isn't felt. Or maybe i should say 90 percent of the countries in the world have the presence of social media.

Stepping out in elegance
The beauty of a man is said to be incomplete when fashion is missing. The beauty of fashion in a man's life cannot be overrated. Fashion brings out the best in everything, and most times it doesn't really have anything to do with a man's look or color. We all have that one type of clothing that fits us all. Fashion brings out creativity, the designer creates an abstract piece of design, as lifeless as the design is on paper, once it's created and sewed everything changes.

Peaceful protest gone wrong!
A lot of times i have always thought that democracy was meant to be or may be termed as a government for the people, by the people, and of the people. Or maybe should i say it refers to a form of government in which the people either have the authority to choose their governing legislators, or the authority to decide on legislation. But in Nigeria, the reverse is always being the case. On the 12th of June is the nation's democracy day celebration.

The Savior
Thousands of years back, there came massive destruction that hit the earth. This destruction was caused by the dark lord of the earth, he goes by the name Rajah. Many lives were lost, properties and even the tiniest of all living creatures were destroyed.

Peace.
There is always a gift that can't be quantified, a gift that can't be purchased, a gift that no man can give its fullness, a gift that turns the life of a man around and makes it seem as if he is the most blessed one amongst all other beings. This gift makes a man healthy even without having the kind of life or riches he wants for himself. A gift that when introduced to a family turns the family around for the best. This gift is of comfort to all humans, it is not too much to have, the more you have it the greater you enjoy it.

The Farmers Happiness.
The joy of every worker is to see the result of their respective works regardless of their field. There was really no adequate produce, not all farmers were able to move out of their houses, their respective customers as well had been locked indoors due to the pandemic, how will our food producers survive?

Live full and die empty.
I am always very triggered when i see challenges that will help foster dreams and the growth of humanity at large. In every generation, there must be a voice or voices, and when i talk about a voice it doesn't have to be in a single location or geographical zone. There must be someone or a group of people willing to pursue their cause, passion, ambition, and above all their purpose.

The Schemings to shun our voices.
Nigeria my fatherland. A verse in her National Anthem says and I quote, "The labor of our heroes past shall never be in vain." This has since been a prayer point of every citizen of this great country Nigeria. The giant of Africa they call Nigeria. One of the greatest countries blessed with numerous mineral resources. Nigeria is a country blessed with numerous talented individuals and great people of great minds. Where did she get it wrong i ask myself? But the answers stand afar beckoning on me. I refuse to move closer because I already know what the answer is.

Patience is a virtue.
Patience they say is not the ability to wait but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting. You might also need this to add to that, "One minute of patience equates ten years of peace." We all must embrace patience and make it a huge part of us in all we do. A lot of times life places us in some tight situations and positions, positions that test our patience and will warrant us acting at the spot. Sometimes it is always very difficult to be patient at that particular time but then if we make patience a part of us, we will eat the good of it. While growing up i was told a story of a lady, she graduated from school and she was on the lookout for jobs. She wasn't the patient type, she prefers everything as soon as possible and sometimes at the spot. Once she's faced with a puzzle or challenge, all she does is give up, she just does not have that luxury of patience in her.

Hard times don't last.
Hard times they say don't last. Sometimes it is very difficult to believe that saying, but here i am saying to you they don't last. Hard times are always constant in a man's life. We come across this at different particular points and spheres of our lives. These are times when we feel so overwhelmed, troubled, scared, anxious, sick, and many other associated feelings. Everything during this period seems so blurry, we seem not to see any solution forthcoming to our situations. But still, i say to you hard times don't always last long.
