THE HIDDEN EASE

Image
I begin in the Name of the Lord of the worlds, The One who has promised to grant Ease to whosoever relies upon HIM. If there was something that is most certain to occur in the live of mankind after Death, I would say, it is MOMENTS OF DISCOMFORT AND DIFFICULTY. Mankind by nature, has been designed in such a way that he always desires for things to be rosy in his life. He always want things to align so perfectly with his expectations, and in summary “a life of comfort seems to be his most priced aspiration during his earthly sojourn”. He seems to forget one basic fact about life, and that is, "a difficulty" that everyone is bound to taste. This difficulty is not bound to inflict human alone, even animals share a taste of it. But mankind seems to be too engrossed in his overwhelming imaginary view of a blissful life and all of sudden, when things turn out to be ugly for him, he relapse into anguish and becomes depressed running around without him being pur...

SUICIDE (when you finally QUIT)

Image
Hearts are disheartened, faces are drawn with concern, tears threatening to well up the eyes, blog sites are flooded, people scream on social media pages asking for help because the news of another suicide has just been broken. As I sit here in my little study space with my scribbling hands haunting for the perfect words to lock this write up in, another suicide attempt flitted across my ears and this time, it was a close relative. My heart jumped, pen dropped, I relapsed into a self conversation with concern written all over my face - what could be happening? Why do people opt to eliminate themselves? Death for me is something people are scared of, how come it's now people's most desired options? Even my garrulous Pen sighed at these grief haunting questions. If I am to regret sorrowfully over anything right now, it will be based on the fact that those victims of suicide can't get to read this write up, perhaps they would have had a second thought. Man...

LOOKING FOR A WAY OUT

Image
There are so many sorrowful tales of a determined dreamer who expended all his sweats to gather and utilize all resources needed in the most effective and efficient way in order to actualize a particular aspirations, but it's so unfortunate that the denouement of his tales were "and he failed in making those dreams become a reality". What could have hindered someone who's got every resources at his disposal from breaking through the blessings of success? A similar anguish is being suffered by a preponderant numbers of dreamers out there which subsequently makes them despair of themselves and quit their pursuit. Yes! Definitely, there are so many obstacles of varying magnitude that could hinder us from actualizing our dreams in the most harsh way, and while serious efforts have been directed at tackling these obstacles, little or no effort has been directed at one particular obstacle which perhaps most dreamers are oblivious of, and that is an HOSTILE ENV...

ONE BIG FAMILY

Image
Family they say: "are a group of people related by blood" - I say: I disagree with this because the concept of family goes way beyond just being related by blood. Family for me, is an institution that covers a wide range of people who are synonymous in their affairs. They think similarly, they walk same way, they share similar interests and lots of other attributes they share.... These sets of beings are scattered on different surfaces of the earth, and they speak different languages, eat different foods, have different cultures and differences in colors and religions. But guess what, despite all these differences, they still live in the same home which is the One Big Globe  I would say, anyone who doesn't share this home with us, is the one who is not a member of the family. The pathetic fact about this Institution concept is that its members don't perceive themselves as One Big Family, and they anchor their arguments on these   little differenc...
