The Stagnating Africa

When I was a student of philosophy, I remember being introduced to the most famous man that the world has ever known; Alexander the Great. This was a man who conquered the whole world in terms of war. He subjugated Anatolia, Syria, Phoenicia, Judea, Gaza, Egypt, Mesopotamia, Persia, Bactria, Punjab as well as India, he all conquered. He is a man who enjoyed control of a powerful army that never lost in war. He conquered and grabbed all kinds of wealth. He dominated the world for couple of years. But his fall was great as himself, just like the house built on the sand grounds on rain season. His fall reminds me that no one can be proclaimed successful until s/he enters in the grave. However, his final days offers a moral lesson to all of us and especially to those who are in the primitive business of accumulating power and money.

Kenyan Irony

Kenyan Irony is when the politicians pledge to set up heaven on earth, while the poor continue dying with hunger in the streets. Kenyan Irony is when the politicians insults each other in public, while they continue sharing dinner together in high tables. Kenyan Irony is when the politicians attend all public gatherings, with intention to be known to everybody.

Kenyan Irony is when publication to fight corruption is made, while billions of cash gets vanished in NYS at the same time. Kenyan Irony is when billions of money fades away in NYS, while mercury finds its way in the sugar with aim of diverting people’s attention. Kenyan Irony is when we borrow billions of Money outside for development, and gets into the pockets of the greedy.

There Is No Traffic Jam Along The Extra Mile

"Should anyone press you into service for one mile, go with him for two miles." These are words of Christ in the gospel of Mathew 5:41. I realize that things are tough in life to many simply because they are contented with the minimal. The minimal to wake up and to go back to sleep, minimal to go to the college and to come back, to go for work and to come back, to eat and to drink. We are satisfied with the minimal and that's why we are congested.
We find ourselves pressing one another because we are in the trajectory of the majority.

Change of Mentality Towards Entrepreneurship

If you put Bananas and Money in front of Monkeys, Monkeys will choose Bananas because they do not know that Money can buy more of Bananas. This analogy Applies to a good number of men and women in the world.If you offer  Jobs and Business to people, majority will choose Jobs  because they do not know that business brings more bananas than wages.Today

Depression Verses Exercise

Depression(Pain, disillusion, mental disorder and anxiety) is not something new in human race. It is a natural process of becoming a fully functioning human being. But one has to make a difference, not to entertain depression but to take action against.

Towards Understanding One's Ambient

One of the gifts bestowed to man is the ability to read the signs of the time and to understand its demands. We must be aware of what time dictates. We must study our surroundings and be conscientious of the things that we should adhere to in order grasp that which is good and right for humanity. It is not enough to know for one to act rightly as the great Greek philosopher Socrates held. In the history of humanity, many have known the right thing to do but unfortunately decided to do that which is wrong and against the rights of humanity.
How many people did Hitler kill in the name of protecting Germany as a country? Did he know that life is a gift and should to be protected and respected? He knew but he chose the opposite. The question that comes to my mind is, what blinds man?
