Abortion... Think About It...!

Sometimes back I read in the news about a lion that killed a family and the man poisoned it. This man was being pursued by the police; to persecute him for killing a man eater! An animal that was a threat to many more lives; an animal that had killed his family! I don't know were it all ended, but he was on the run; running from the government that couldn't protect him and his family from a man eater; a government that protects animals from people.

Think about these questions:
1) Did you know that some governments are more passionate at protecting animal rights than human rights?
2) Did you know that some governments would rather make money at the expense of human lives than protect or save human lives at the expense of money?
3) Did you know that many animals on this planet are living more comfortable lives than humans; and this is made by governments that do not care about their people?

Anyway, that is something many of us know. After all, some governments care more about revenging their enemies than providing basic needs for their citizens; and if you've been in the media between 2002 - 2008 then you're my witness.

A government will dish out billions of its currency on an animal research while people die of lack of sufficient medical care! Obviously, knowing such things will stir your anger and you'll wish you where a super man or girl, and you would change the course of events in favor of men and women's lives or livelihood.

Anyway, with in such cases above, it's easy to tell who right and who is in need. But hear comes the case of abortion. Abortion is a very completed matter for many governments to decide on, especially whether it should be legalized or not. Judgments of whether abortion should be legalized or not are very circumstantial. Such questions as;-

1) What if a woman is not ready to conceive?
2) What if she is of a pre-mature age?
3) What is it is out of a crime that she conceived, say rape or defilement?
4) What is the father is irresponsible or even denies?
5) What if the father is incapable of sustaining the pregnancy?
6) And, the funny one of all, what if the man doesn't simply want the baby?
7) Lastly, what if one of the parents if insane or a premature?

Should the government legalize abortion in such cases or not? What standards or measures should be taken to prove that the permitted abortion case lays under the above instances? When I look at such cases, I then ask my self whether there are any exeptions or not since to me, it seems abortion can have been fully legalized since almost all cases lay somewhere in one or more cases above.

Should the government protect the babies from such a preventive or murderous practice? I personally think the government should also give some protection to these young people-to-be especially in cases where the mother is fully grown and health-wise capable of giving birth. Religious beliefs may not be just here if considered (since many of them are extreme...) while taking such decisions; it's very true.

Critic…? How do you help…?

The other day while I was seated in a restaurant, I sat close to this guy, so informed, he could easily sort the best from the worst no matter how much it disguises. He was commenting on anything, of course negatively, on the TV show on the other screen, on the movie on this screen, the restaurant arrangement, the dressing code of the waiters and anything the crossed his eyes and rung in his mind. He had good arguments, informed points worth noting, but the expression was poor.

As I walked out of the restaurant, I met this other pedestrian like me and as we by-passed a 2 years old boy holding the Bible with so much courage and preaching anything good about it (the Bible) that would come on his mind, the gentle man commented, “this young man doesn’t know anything worth noting”. He was wrong of course, the little man knew just what he was talking about and other people contributed money right before him in support of his ministry.

As I entered a plaza to get some staff into my hands, I met this other gang boys at a “man age” and they were criticizing anything that crossed their eyes and moved their thinking. They talked national and world politics, sports; football in particular, fashion and more; obviously I took sometime close to them, noting what they were discussing, criticizing anyone, anything.

I have discovered something about critics in my years; they are well informed people (sometime mistaken or misinformed) who want “wrong” things “right”, but cant change anything except talking about it.

I have told friends, many times, that a good teacher isn’t a very informed person, no, but one man or woman who is willing to share his/her idea(s) with anyone just to teach them right, help them understand or improve their lives and decision making.

I imagine, if all we know as critics were good teachers, how informed or right would our society be? This is why I have decided to devote most of my life to writing in a way of informing masses. I wish, many times, I had a “louder” medium through which I could help people know, understand and do the right things rather than comment without helping.

Criticizing helps you analyze facts about something, but a good critic is one who doesn’t only expose the negatives and challenge the positives, but one who will provide recommendations on what he has analyzed. Don’t just talk about anything on the streets, in restaurants or bars.

If you’re well informed, and you have a good understanding and judgment of facts and factors, you don’t have to aim at winning but helping people know, understand and do; come join my crew of teachers, inspired by reality.

Mr. Barak Obama... The Inspiration...

Mr. Obama's success in the past US president election has risen almost every man's eyebrows, be it the Blacks, the Whites, the Arabs or Asians. It's true that this is not what any of us living today expected, especially from this generation of elders.

To me, it is some scripture coming true.

At hearing the victory news, I felt like I had lost all the hairs on my body, as if I had been thrown from the peak of the Himalayahs, I shaded some tears of joy, danced cotrollably, smyled like I had done something funny without anyone noticing and then joined my friends Mary and Timothy to alk about the success.

Mr. Obama's success today has confirmed many beliefs, prophesies and sayingw. It has challenged many negative beliefs about black people (regardless of were they live) and is a challenge to every man's faith and belief, both young and old, "black" or "white", man or woman.

For women, there are three things (but not only three) that I would now want to see come to pass;

1) A female Secretary General of the United Nations.
2) A female British Prime Minister (Premier).
3) A female president of China and of Russia.

For the world, there are three things (but not only three) that I would want to see come to pass;

1) The capture of Osama Bin Laden.
2) The discovery of an HIV/AIDS, Sicklecells and all types of cancers cure.
3) A black British, Germany and France Premier.

And one more funny one; to see one million Chines married to black men in as few as one year.

Mr. Obama's success has proved to us that "all things are possible to all who believe". And, that all things dreams are possible to those who keep them alive in them.

However, fellow black men and women, and the rest of the world that believes so much in Mr. Obama's success, don't expect much from Mr. Obama. He is just a man like any of us, a leader pursuing the "American Dream", which though not a global dream, is relevant to the rest of the world. He is going to face his portion of challenges in leadership were he will make his achievements and failures.

Take the lessons in his success story and let him have enough time to re-establish the American Economy, and the foundation of the next Black leaders in the high positions of Global Leadershipship.

Points In LIfe... Self Judgement...

Everytime you reach a point in life were you don't care what happens, in most cases you're wrong about what you're going to do and it will neither benefit you or benefit the person/people you intend to involve.
Everytime you reach a point in life were you're every excited about something than you've ever been before, know that in it lays something that can easily make you more sad than you've ever been.
Everytime you reach a point in life were you feel everything is easy, know you're a about to face a challenge greater than any you've ever faced in your life.

Everytime you turn around in the midst of challenges and there is no one to uphold your courage, know that you are safe; nothing worse will happen.

Everytime you think something is becoming useless to you, keep it but don't dispose it; it means in a short time from then you'll need it like you've never needed it before.

Everytime you reach a point in life were you can't make up your mind, it means the results of your decision will highly affect your life so it is good for you to take your time and make up your mind before choosing the next big sacrifice you're to make.
Everytime you reach a point were you feel you would rather cry for a minute, take your time and cry before you can get more miserable than you already are. This in most cases means you're about to be very happy, but the sadness may limit it if not released.
It also sometimes means you're going to face a bigger challenge so it is better when refresh you courage by releasing the sadness that already exists in you, which makes you stronger and more prepared.

All Because Two People Fell In Love...

It's so funny how life can have two standards, both affecting us, and we still call it beautiful. It's too mysterious how one man and woman with no idea about each other's existence wake up one morning set for their life duties and to each other's surprise (they) meet, fall in love, feel so attached to each other; as if life don't mean anything before, as if they never lived before they met.
One morning you wake up, look through the window and you see a neighbors daughter (about 5 years) decorating her head with flowers in their beautiful flower garden; for an hour of observation, you forget all the troubles in this world and call it the most beautiful place for souls of men.
One evening you take a walk to the football pitch and while seated looking at people play, you notice a father and son enjoying their evening the ball; the little man kicks and falls down, runs and falls down, but will still do it again, laughing with great pleasure. Soon you begin to speak to yourself, "Ooh, how life would be so unpleasant without love... see how it's fruits yeild great pleasure..."
A few months later you meet a stranger whose heart is the gig-saw piece that will make your life complete, and from that day everything looks like it will never end; the smiles, the touches, the fevers... everything, so good, so sweet, so beautiful! Then comes a baby, a boy or girl, and the smiles begin all over again... a new image is part of you... and life begins all over again.
You begin to look at the world in a beautiful and satisfying perspective. All things began like this... and though the worst is still seen among men, it doesn't matter when the end is beautiful... The whole world is feel with beautiful people, beautiful places of pleasure and great hope... all beause two people fell in love.

Life... One Chance...

How I wish there was a better way to say this and you understand well, enough. I wish I was able to speak this loud enough for any of you to understand.

Life is a one chance experience at a time, a one time experience. You can be pardoned and given another chance, another shot like many others call it, but at a different time. You can repeat the same thing very many times until you get it right, but at different times. You can achieve your goal after many trials, but you can't rewind even a single second of time to get anything done at a time that was once gone.

If you are a careful "life student", you'll realize that 90% (and more or a little less) of the time in our lives is wasted time; time we spend doing things, irrelevant things and more of the sort. Some of the greatest success principles are;

1) To know when to say YES or NO.
2) To do the right thing when it MUST BE DONE, at the right time.
3) To determine the worthiness and relevancy of something in time.

Both principles include time, as a great factor.
Therefore, it is good to know how to manage you time; to move when you should (MUST) move and to sit when you should (MUST) sit, to speak when you should (MUST) speak and to stay silent ayou should (MUST) stay silent.

This way, 95% of the troubles you get will be far a way from you, and more than 90% of the time of your life will be allocated to important things or the right things. Don't waste time because you can't replace any - do something if it should (MUST) be done, at the right time.

Childhood... Best times...

As you grow older, you begin you admire every child you see... I mean one in a good state; a good family. Sometimes while walking on an easy evenning, I see children playing, laughing and laughing, and I just wish I became young at least for a few minutes...

Adulthood brings you so much stress, pain, regret, worry, ... and such more feelings. Although I now know why I admired being a grown up while I was young, sometimes I say it's worth it especially when I look at the freedom I earned, but sometimes I wish I spent an extra 10 years young. Ooh, it was so sweet to be young, so beautiful; the best time of my life.
However, this doesn't mean I haven't had a good time in my adulthood days, the best times are those when I have learnt from my experience, between 14 - 22 years. These have been good times... I really appreciate each lesson that I have earned. The hard times, disappointments, failures, salvation [by far, the best time and experience] and finding my fiancee... It's really been a great time... A lifetime worth living...

Psycho-analysing Mr. Obama...


I thank God for the decision the Americans have made; choosing Senator Barak Obama to become the new President of the United States of America. I also thank all those who did not disguise during the campaigning era, only to show their side after elections.

Friends, like Mr. Obama and Oprah in USA, Mr. Odinga in Kenya, Mr. Morgan Tsvangarai in Zimbabwe and of course Mr. Kiiza Besigye and Mr. Elias Lukwago [don't get me wrong because am honest here] in Uganda, I love people who stand for their opinion and defend it; taking the risk of loosing, and loosing everything just to show what they believe in.
These people have really demonstrated their braveness in many occassions.

Then comes Professor Binna Kandola OBE, of Pearn Kandola, who shows his opinion of how he sees a good president in Senator Obama, but after elections. Look at this quote from the article "Experts have created a psychological profile of America's President-elect to predict what sort of leader he will be" published by Sky News.

"When examining psychological profiles of the two candidates - the best candidate won. Mr Obama has the qualities and profile to be a good President and if he can play to his strengths and minimise his weaknesses, he could be a great one."

Honestly, I have nothing against the article, except, the professor should have published this statement earlier, before the election. Mr. Kandola, imagine how many votes Senator Obama has lost because of your failure to publish what you "knew best" about him in time! Using this statement, Senator Obama would have drawn extra hindreds of votes! What do you think professor? Better do it early enough next time... but I loved the article... except, you forgot to tell us that Senator Obama is not the kind of person that can fight emotions like anger... O, am not a psychologist, ... human instict... judgement...

Some Snapshorts...

Snapshots aren't something I take all the time though I love it; somehow it happens like that, but I love myself and the people in my environment. Here are some... I hope they'll feel that space in your mind... Nice time!

Love, Love, Love... O Love...

Love, Love, Love... O Love...

What other name can we give you?
Sweeter than milk and honey,
You test fresher than passions from the Mountains of the Moon.
More obsessive than wine, even to the most noblest of men.

Kings risk their kingdoms to have you.
Princes risk their future throwns and rich territories;
Territories with the finest oil, silver, gold and diamonds just to taste you.
Those that have tested your sweetness have tasted from the
fountains of everlasting life.

Those who are drunk of you are drunk of the eternal satisfaction,
peace and happiness.
They are drunk of the finest wine, and their satisfaction is eternal.

Love, Love, Love... O Love...

What is your alternative O love?
Who is your twin sweet love?
What is sweet as you?
Even philosophers will choose you and leave honor,
knowledge and riches.

Love, Love, Love... O Love...

Is it you that we feel when we dream while in
the fields of the most beautiful and sweet smelling of flowers?
No, you are better than that;
The peace you give, the eternal happiness you create...
It's all amazing...
It all assures me that life after death is real.

Love, Love, Love... O Love...

Let me have you... Let me feel you...
Let me taste what you have that the strongest,
richest, wisest, most honorable and heroes of this world price about you.
Let me sleep in you and wakeup in you.
Let me feel you while am awake, asleep, even when I wake up again...
Let me taste the obsession you create in both men and women.
Am sure it will conquer my pessimism...

*Oooh...
What a poem...!
I guess you loved it...
Love is a sweet thing...
So mysterious eeh...!
I hope you're enjoying it too...

Gossip and Rumor…

A few days back a friend called me complaining that she is bothered by the way neighbors attack her verbally through rumors. She was too upset about each word they talked about her and she wanted me to give her my opinion about attacking them and questioning them about each word they spoke about her. Making matters worse, she told me these neighbors talk about her when she’s hearing, but of course when they think she’s isn’t. So I told her, “Why bother your self? Just keep quiet, be silent. Don’t talk to them in any rude way or confront them over anything like gossip, they’ll get tired and give up."

This reminded me of the place were I grew from. My home town is at the extreme waste of Uganda, one or even the most blessed district in Western Uganda, and one of the most blessed in the country of course. This small but highly populated town has people with a common origin: this means that these people know each other well, so it is easy to identify themselves or identify any new member in the society. Now, one thing I has to let you get straight is, every time you visit an area were people easily identify themselves, know that you’ve reached an area where you have to be very careful with the way you behave because every step you take is being watched.

Considering this area were I grew up, in addition to it’s small size and high population, there was a problem of unemployment, which still exists, and this means that people, especially women have the time to carry on with “co-curricular” activities like gossip or rumoring, adultery, alcoholism, prostitution and many of such kind of activities.

Gossip or rumoring was one of the things we easily got used to while growing up. People would talk about anything they see and local “news” was easily spread through this thickly populated area.

Because of growing up in such an area, I learnt such things as;

1) Minding my business, especially since I hated gossip.

2) Avoiding the public eye

3) And, I grew stronger emotionally, since gossip or rumor couldn’t easily move me.

4) The best medicine to gossiping or rumoring people is being silent.

I always tell friends that silence is the best medicine for any kind of gossip or rumor. You see, sometimes people talk about us for good, for bad or while sharing some information say giving examples, and we call this gossip or rumor, yet some times the things they can have talked are true. Say for example, a neighbor might see you in the middle of the night with a young girl or a neighbor’s wife somewhere and tell a friend about it. Sometimes, in fact many times he or she can’t prove that he saw you but this does not mean that you should argue. Be quiet, just keep quiet; silence in such a case is golden. Let him or her talk and talk, but if you don’t reply, soon the topic will have no attention and your life will normalize.

We have experienced gossip or rumor, one that sometimes comes with false allegations and we still live on. Silence has rewarded us with the best gossipers and rumor mongers being our faithful friends rather than our enemies. We have been able to influence gossipers and rumor mongers how to speak more useful words than destructive ones.

You're best able to achieve this through silence.

The Preacherman... The Good Teacher...

This morning while in a taxi to my work place we met a preacher asking people to accept Jesus as their Lord and personal savior, and telling them that life without jesus is painful, fetal and therefore useless.

We were all silent, and suddenly a man at the back of the taxi laughed in a despising and surprised manner. In an instance all of us in the car gave him our attention and he said, "I wonder were these guys get the courage to stand and shout the whole day in sunshine when they know so little about what they are talking about... they read only two scriptures in the Bible and shout them all day..."

Of course no one replied him, but each one of us heard him loud and clear.
I jumped out of the taxi at the stage and walked all the way thinking about this guys words... analysing the truth in them and the weakness in his thaughts...

Later on in my thaughts came these wise words,
"A good teacher is not he who knows a lot, but he who is willing to share the little he know with those who don't know at all or who don't know enough..."

These words moved me... they remained me of my school days when teachers on school practice would come and train on our little brains and we challenge them. These words were so true and real to me.

This Preacherman's activities have taught me the lesson of a life time; to share the little I have if I have to earn credit from sharing. Are you challenged?

In My School Days...

School days are the days I don't think I'll ever forget.

It's so amazing how life changes from one stage to another... especially when I look at myself now; my attitude, my work, my knowledge, my experiences and more...

The days I'll never forget are the teenage years; those amazing school days and the related experiences. Their is this experince I got when I joined secondary school. Since I started school at a very young age (African Standard), I reached secondary when I was quite young.

My secondary days were characterised with a lot of Teasing, Bulling, and many other things that were characterized with a lot of intimidating. Now, looking at the pictures below; at Kibuli Police Station, which is the CID Headquarter here in Uganda, I remember those fear-filled days of secondary school when Students in higher classes used to stop us the young ones from going beyond certain boundaries, reaching certain places or even doing certain things.

This life taught me a lot though it was a hard way of learning. These big guys made us do a lot of staff for them like picking there food from the dining, washing their plates and clothings too, fetching there water, even to laying there beds!

Now when I see this information or "caution" post, I remember those good-to-learn-from but not good-to-experice days...
Life has taught to me that no matter what level you go on, there is always a lesson for you; something challenging, intimidating, confusing and sometimes complicated to understand.
God has made a lesson plan for every body at every level.

Just Another Junk Article...

Now, this is just another funny story in one paper hear called "the onion". You see, sometimes you read something and feel so bad when you to keep it to yourself. This story as you see in the picticture above talks about a ghost plane; it's so funny how this "so far" piece of metal could make such a big story in so little time. So, let's share the fun...

*O, click it to enlarge to a readable size.

The Articles We Read...

One time a friend warned me about reading newspapers and I thought bad of him. The next time he told me that it's not good to take serious every article I read and I still though bad of him. Of course I had my own argument; can the writers and publishers be so unserious to present unserious articles?

But until I read this article, I could not believe that it could find a story so untrue and funny as this. This article was published in one teenage and naughty adult news paper here in Uganda.

O, the name of the news papers is "the Onion" and according to one teenager, she told me that this "Onion" paper is a good spice for her age.

In fact is contain what I would call "the perimature playboy articles and publicatons. The truth is that I had seen this picture, I fact these pictures about three months back on one of the popular information websites, and the truth is that what I about the "art piece" is different from what this writer is saying. Should it be untrue, then the writer is a funny and creative one, but should it be true, then guys, let's surf the net more seriously...

Value With NO Price...

Life is such a precious experience no matter how it feels.

Living for a minute is such a thing that every morally upright person should be thankful for.

It’s true that some people haven’t lived for as long as we have lived on this planet. Can you imagine; some were born dead – they never even made the first cry of babes while experiencing this life! Isn’t it true that the good and the bad, the young and the old, the poor and the rich, the sick and the healthy, and the evil and the righteous both die?

It’s so good to know that life is an experience with great value, yet with no price.
Yes, you can never buy a minute of life, not even a second, because having life is a one chance experience and loosing it is a one-way traffic… except for Jesus and the known few who made a U-turn… or the "known one" that never took the same route that all humans take in this journey of life...

Once a friend told me that what is the purpose of dying with a healthy body when both you (who has healthy body) and he (who has an unhealthy body) will die and rot alike?

In the first place l was moved, in fact, challenged by his reasoning, but until l realized that there is a difference in the experience of someone that dies with a smile and one that dies crying and regretting; I never knew that this knowledge was just enough to direct me through the choices I make in life.

A good experience in life is a good experience and there is nothing you can compare to it.

Life is the only commidity that has Great Value yet with no Price...

My Wishes...

It's good to have a real life...

According to me, a person that has a real life is a person that has dreams, wishes, desires, likes, ambitions, goals, ...

I believe in each of them, and I strongly believe that out of them comes the direction which our life (experiences) follow. While I was young, I had many wishes; some have stayed, some I have forgotten, some I hve realized, some are still part of my struggle, and it's true that in some I have lost hope.

These are some of the wishes that have stayed, the crazy one and the more complex one I hve in life...

I wish my eyes could see things beyond what I can now see... even things in tommorow...

I wish my body could feel beyond what am touching now or what is torching me now...

I wish my hands could touch beyond what I can reach now...

I wish my ears could hear things beyond now...

I wish my mind could determine now and then...

I wish I can fly like I always dream...

These are some of my wishes... although I have many...

The Desired Sources...

When I was young I knew little about love.

In my teenage years, especially in my early teen years I thought things about affairs were so easy, I mean, I thought it was a matter of two people agreeing to stay together and things would work out, and I never understood anyone that complained about any difficulties they found in a relationship except for money and death. But now that I have grown up, I know love from a different perspective.

Today, I know love as a complex subject next or equal to life.

You see, for generations people have pointed out many things; thoughts and discoveries for both study (research) and experience about life and love, but many questions still remain unanswered, or even with any imagined suggestions.

For example;
1) What is love?

2) What is life?

1) Where does love and life originate?

And more... questions like these that only have beliefs as answers exist but one thing amazes me; even when people ask alot of questions, people still live a long life and fall in love...!

Popular Words...

These days there is a number of popular words among youth and adults that somewhat need to be comments about. While talking to a number of friends, it was noted that the two most popular words among people of all ages are;
1) Fun
2) Love

It's true that there is nothing bad about the two words if one deals with them accordingly. But there is a problem that needs to the rectified; the two words are too broad to be understood.

For example, I asked a friend resently what the term "fun" meant and he told me it has alot to do with happiness, joy, enjoying staff, boozing, visiting places and many more... but all related to happiness.

Within the same time range, I asked three guys what love meant and this is what they told me;-
Guy 1: Love is a nice feeling.
Guy 2: Love is what you feel for the person you like very much.
Guy 3: Love is a feeling that makes you defenceless when it comes to temptations that come through your desires.

Finally, the most interesting topic was love, so it hit up at all descussions.
So, one of the guys asked me back "What is love?" and out of my thoughtful experience I replied;

"Love is a passion for righteousness and desire."

So, what is love to you?

Perfect Measures...

Sometimes you do not need a big gun to win a battle or to challenge your enemies, no, you need an effective gun; a gun that has enough bullets to challenge them and protect you from those to come.

Sometimes you do not need a lot of education to excel, no, you need good knowledge, relevant knowledge and observing life principles that matter.

Sometimes you do not need a lot of strength to work, no, all you need are good skills, effective skills that will yield you efficiency - the results you want; and make you excel.

Sometimes you do not need many friends to challenge an election, no, you need are friends that have a good testimony of you, and it doesn’t matter how many of them are there.

Sometimes you do not need a lot of money to be happy, no, you need enough money to fit your bills in the places of pleasure, and a clear feeling of your freedom in the places of pleasure.

There are things that we need in life, the things that we are important, but yet in the real sense, SOMETIMES... they are not the keys to the doors of our dreams...

The Best Bargain...

Before getting to the formula that will make you the best bargainer any merchant (business man or woman) has ever seen, these some of the facts you should know;

Fact #1:
Every business person is always willing and ready to give a discount on any commodity just to make sure he sales it off.

Fact #2:
Always, there is a lowest price for every commodity in the market.

Fact #3:
Price discrimination is a fact in many markets.

Fact #4:
Personality has a lot to do with prices, but status doesn't mean you'll get a commodity cheaper or expensive.

Fact #5:
Politely, humbly and in a friendly-funny way, proving to any business person that you're aware (informed) about the commodity (it's good and bad side) and the prevailing market price will earn you a discount.

Fact #6:
Patience will always earn you a discount before most business people if they realise it in you. It's good to wait for "rush-rush" customers to get what they want first and then follow with a bargain.

Fact #7:
It's good to survey the prevailing price(s) of a given good at both whole and retail sale. This will help you make a bargain in the way that doesn't irritate the saler but gives you an advantage.

Fact #8:
A customer that returns to the saler, in most cases, stands a chance to earn a discount, so it's good to always return to the person you last bought from a given commodity; it's good to know your suppliers... and continuously buying from them will earn you a discount.

Fact #9:
But, also a good new customer stands a chance to earn a discount, so, make sure the first impression you give earns you sympathy; a discount.

Fact #10:
Avoid places with fixed prices if you want to enjoy bargaining.

A good bargainer will always buy a commodity at the lowest price possible in the market. There's always the highest and the lowest price for a commodity, and every business person is always willing to sell at any price, but it's your responsibility to drag them to any "price-end".

O, however, many times salers prefer selling at a high price because this broadens their profit margine, so they will always try as hard to sell to you at a higher price.

While bargaining, always esnure that the sales person offers you his or her commodity at the lowest price possible, but this takes patience and good speech, so don't rush or you'll buy at the highest price available in the market.

When a sales person tells you a price, in most cases it means that the given price is the highest at which he or she can sale that given commodity to you, but not to all he can sale the same commodity.

In most cases, the "normal" price for a given commodity is always approximately 60% of the first given price, but a good bargainer stands a chance to drag it down to 30 or 40% of the first given price. If the first price was exaggrated or if the saler hasn't made any sales or is tired, has encountered a loss, has already sold at abnormal prices, is winding up the stock and has already made a lot of profits, is impressed or challenged by the bargaining power or language, or can still earn a profit even when he or she sales it at 30 or 40% below the first quted price.

I guess this is a good guide to lead you to the market. Let's go shopping...!

The Rich & The Poor...

It's true that the rich and the poor share but a few characters in common.

Let's consider this;-
- A richman will run to people everytime he earns a fortune, but a poor man will run away from people every time he gets an advantage in an opportunity.

- Every richman is a giver, but more poor people are sting. In fact it's because they're stingy that they're poor or grow poor and poorer.

The giving or sharing is why rich men grows rich and richer while the stingy and unselfish character in poor people is the reason the poor turn poor and poorer even when they are overwhelmed by opportunities.

Keys to Happiness...

Everyone has keys to happiness.
These keys to happiness are constantly three in kind and every human has them.
The three keys include;
1) The key to your own happiness.
2) The key to your most loved one's happiness.
3) The key to the happiness of all those around you.

So, have you opened some happiness today?
Remember, you have the keys, so go out there and make you and someone happy.

Keeping People... Keeping Friends...

All my life I've always loved to stay at peace with people, and with friends, this has always been a prime objective. There's not one friend in my life, no, they're really many and I thank God for each of them.

When one talks about relating with other people, I know that it's not easy, in fact, naturally, we live all our life trying to learn how to live with people; both friends and family members around us.
There is not one principle that can summarise the principles one should follow while relating with people. But, as a Christian, I surely believe that "love your neighbor as you love your self" is a very important principle when it comes to humans relating with humans.

I have friends that have stayed and friends that have gone, even those that have died, so today I know that some people have come to stay and others will leave soon after their purpose in our life is over.

It's good to know that people have weaknesses, even the people you think of as very perfect or above the normal human standard of goodness. This is why every human will at least experience a conflict, blame or something of the sort in life. Now, failure to know that humans have weaknesses means you means you're far imperfect than a normal human being; this is the reason learning to forgive and compromising with fellow humans should be among the first lesson of every human in human life.

To me, people are such a simple thing to live with if you want to; you see, if this is a goal in your life then you'll spend a lot of your time learning it, and you'll learn it cheerfully.

I've had friends that have pleased me so... much, and friends that have hurt me really bad. I've experienced the two extreme ends of relationships at there worst and best edges and today I know the good and bad in them, even how to live cheerfully with them; it's possible.

Meetings new people is a pleasure I've not denied myself, even though somehow, sometimes I've regreted having met some people. It's true that what you meet many times, every day, will dominate you thoughts, so to me, people; meeting and living with people donates my mind. I'll talk about it, on various subjects because my experience with them is quite big.

Life is a long journey dominated by meeting and living with people. Let's tirelessly take plessure in doing this... because, it's through it that we learn the principle of relationships... something that will teach you how to live with the angels, that is, if you have hopes of going to heven like me.

The Past Few Days...

Mmmh... One may wonder what I've learnt in the past few days, and I guess without letting you know you'll never know... Anyway, this doesn't mean I don't take pleasure in letting you know...
The past few days have been of great help. I've learnt quite a lot of staff.

Let's look through some of them down here;
1) Sometimes you don't have to attract people to yourself, nature will draw them to you and if you're of good character they'll always be glad and thankful that they met you.

2) Sometimes you don't have to confront those who offend you; your silence will cause them a shame that will push them away from you.

3) Fools don't deserve mercy, so don't waste even your patience on them; you'll only get irritated.

4) Forgiving someone for his fault will free your heart from heartaches, but keeping anger will only make you loose focus, so don't waste time, let anger take but only a short time on your mind.

5) Lack of money doesn't mean lack of peace. You may have know money but still have all things you need, and this yields more satisfaction than money.

6) Pain lasts only for a while, but memories will always caution you even when scars are gone.

7) A free effort offered may sometimes reward you more than more a service over charged.

8) Think about friends more often; this brings more happeness than knowing that they think about you.

9) One can leave longer without a lover than he or she can live without food; but, love found once can satisfy you more than a million meals.

10) A person that doesn't learn from experience is more prone to trouble than one that doesn't learn from class.

Otherwise, friends, these are a summary of some of the lesson I've learnt in the past few days.

I guess they mean something good to you.

Have some fan today... it may be the last time you'll have good mememories... those friends around you.

My Friendliness And My Friends...

A faithful man will slightly feel or not even be lonely for so long, he surely is on demand that if the “author of reality” put a mark on him indicating that he is a faithful man, we would make him the leader of the world. This is what everyone wants to see in anyone he or she will find and call friend; a faithful person he or she can trust; a leader.

A friend told me that he wishes he had friends like mine and I told him,
"If you want a good friend, make sure you can see a ‘good friend’ in yourself. It's only when you are confident that you’re a good friend that people, good people, are attracted to you."

If you become a good friend, a trustable friend, you'll be a friend to friends of your friends, and they'll trust you like or even more than they trust your friends – who knew them before you and introduced them to you or you to them.

You see, it's not easy for a friend, any friend, to introduce you to his or her friends as a good friend and ask them to trust you just as much as he or she trusts you... or, and introduce you as a very faithful, trust worthy, friend... someone he or she can relay on. It's not easy at all, that’s why many times we are not known to friends of our friends.

Giving a friend a description of a trustable friend before friends means you are ready to take on the blame in case that friend does anything funny. And, this is what many of us can’t do for the people we call friends; we know them, we know who they are and what they do or can do, so we can risk our integrity and other friendship ties by convincing other people [friends] to trust them…

This precisely explains the reason why many friends keep their friends [good friends or friends that matter] to themselves. They simply fear that introducing them to some of their friends may compromise their treasured friendship.

A good friend encourages his or her friends to introduce him or her to their friends.

A good friend attracts trust from anyone around him.

A good friend attracts good friends.

A good friend is a good friend indeed.

You And Your Activities...

Sometime back I read a certain text were it was quoted that if you don't give people what belongs to them, who will give you yours? And from the day I read this piece of work my attitude towards serving others [work] and taking my share [I mean what belongs to me] changed. This text taught me that it's through giving others what belongs to them that I earn what belongs to me; my share.

In some other book, one author also wrote that one of the prime principles of success is making your self more important. And, when I thought about this very well, in different perspectives, I realized that this also means that giving people what they deserve, want or need can make someone successful; realize his or her dreams, ambitions or plans.

Now, many of us are employed somewhere and this simply means we are under someone care, responsibility, observation or supervision, and so we are accountable for our activities in our place(s) of work. But what most of us don't know is that our activity in things that belong to others or that have an effect on others has a direct relationship with our dreams, ambitions and plans.

Now friends, put this on your mind and never forget it; when it comes to work, no matter where you apply your knowledge and effort, every effort you make is like a brick added to your dream house [your dreams, plans or ambitions], so put it carefully. Be sure it'll make your dream come out just the way you want it... Serving those around you is the beginning of making your dream(s) come true.

The YOU Tomorrow

It’s a good thing to desire.

It’s a good thing to dream.

And, it’s a good thing to have hope.

All these things are simply good to have no matter what age you have.

It is one thing to have a dream, but it’s another thing to be able to live up to your dreams; this takes more than words or an effort. For your dreams to come true you need to build a character that suits your dreams, a character that will help you live up to the day when your dreams will come true – and one that will help you achieve the challenges you’ll meet while you try to achieve it.

For you to realize your dreams you’ve got to stay alive, and to stay alive you’ve got to keep breathing… This way your dreams will come true.

Desire is a good character, but greed is the evil side of it… it’ll means you get no satisfaction in anything.

Hope is a good thing, but put together with carefulness is a better thing; you’ll never go wrong.

As a youngster, have many desires, dream big and believe in tomorrow, this will help you build a good personality; it’ll give you a reason to live… a reason to respect life (your life) and the lives of all those around you.

The Cracked Pot - What an inspiration!

Looking through my mails I met one titled "the cracked pot"... and I curiously wondered what it was all about, and you can imagine... i opened the mail to read it. A few lines down the story, one statement attracted me to another and so I read it all the way to the end.
This is a very educativew and inspiring story... let's share it;


An elderly Chinese woman had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a Pole Which she carried across her neck.

One of the pots had a crack in it while the other pot was perfect and Always Delivered a full portion of water.

At the end of the long walks from the stream to the house, the cracked pot Arrived only half full.

For a full two years this went on daily, with the woman bringing home only One and a half pots of water.

Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments.

But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable That it could only do half of what it had been made to do.

After two years of what it perceived to be bitter failure, it spoke to the Woman one day by the stream.

"I am ashamed of myself, because this crack in my side causes water to leak Out all the way back to your house."

The old woman smiled, "Did you notice that there are flowers on your side Of The path, but not on the other pot's side?"

"That's because I have always known about your flaw, so I planted flower Seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back, you water Them."

"For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate The table.

Without you being just the way you are, there would not be this beauty to Grace the house."

**********

Each of us has our own unique flaw. But it's the cracks and flaws we each Have that make our lives together so very interesting and rewarding.

You've just got to take each person for what they are and look for the good In them.

**********

SO, to all of my crackpot friends, have a great day and remember to smell The flowers on your side of the path!


Without changing any word, that's a story written by an amazing wise individual. It's true that all our weaknesses have an importance, both good and bad, but if you look at the good side, you'll find a reason to comprise with anything faulty around you. Oh, it's really amazing...

About Tommorow...

You see, you won't know how much it hurts when you're despised until you are despised yourself. It really hurts, and it's challenging... it really stirs ambition...

Reaching this far hasn't been so easy, though I've loved all the experiences I've gone through; though some of them haven't been easy at all, but it was worth it that I passed through them all.

I told a friend time back, "when you see someone needy, don't laugh... in a minute you may need him even much more than he needs you now..." And, she took it at heart. A few days later, her mercies were rewarded after she had felt the same for someone needy.

Patience and respect, regardless of what, are such a good character of the heart. And understand is the only way you can prove that you have an idea about the myseries of life.
Those who have them will see amazing things everyday.

People's lives schedules are not like mathematical principles, no, many times they are even challenging to those "calculators of life".

Turning your eyes to the left you'll see someone crying, but by the time you turn you eyes to the right and then back, the person you saw crying may be more happy that you... so, respect humans even when you see them crying... needy...

God & Science... Amazing Discussion...

Over the years I've loved reading small articles, not minding about what they there subject is about, but today I read this message from one of our popular emailing websites and to tell you the truth, I was moved... in fact and very happy I opened my mail today...

Now considering what is there, let's read through together and enjoy the sense and the fan.

Nice reading...

An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem Science has with God, The Almighty.

He asks one of his new students to stand and.....

Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.

Prof: Is God good?
Student: Sure.

Prof: Is God all-powerful?
Student: Yes.

Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him.

Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then? Hm (Student is silent.)

Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fellow. Is God good?
Student: Yes.

Prof: Is Satan good?
Student: No.

Prof: Where does Satan come from?
Student: From...God.. .

Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student: Yes.

Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.

Prof: So who created evil?
(Student does not answer.)

Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?
Student: Yes, sir.

Prof: So, who created them? (Student has no answer.)

Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?
Student: No, sir.

Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student: No, sir.

Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?
Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.

Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student: Yes.

Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.

Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.
Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Prof: Yes.
Student: And is there such a thing as cold?

Prof: Yes.
Student: No sir. There isn't.

(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold.

Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.

(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)

Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?

Student: You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't.

If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?

Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.

Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure.

Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one.

To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)

Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavour, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class is in uproar.)

Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain?

(The class breaks out into laughter.)

Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain, sir.

With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable. )

Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.
Student: That is it sir... The link between man & god is FAITH.

That is all that keeps things moving & alive.......


O God, I guess you see how creative, informed and sensible some people are...
Now I tell you, "Never celebrate a victory before someone else tries to challenge you. Sometimes the person you think you've challenged can have given you a chance to exercise all you knowledge and chances so that he can challenge you back in the things you have but a small idea about. Enjoy your time on the net...

Real Life...

A few years back I developed this passion for learning life lessons. As a beginner, just as I suppose you know that passion is high at the beginning, I was so passionate about every lesson I learnt. I even lost my own freedom and happiness, dedicating all my life to learning and thinking, thinking that this was the right way to do it.

But today, I know of a better way to learn, to live as a scholar of life;
- You don't have to loose you freedom while learning from a school called life because freedom is one of the topics you are meant to learn and put into practice.

- You do not have to undermine your happiness while learning because happiness is one of the motivating forces that will help you be a good scholar of life.


But...
- Sometimes you've got to undermine you freedom to learn certain lessons; this applies in many ways, so sometimes you've got to do it...

- As for your happiness, how will you learn lesson of unhappy people when you live all you life happy? It's true that there is know one that has lived all his life happy without any moment(s) of sadness, but sometimes you've voluntarily got to deny yourself the things that make you every happy so that you can learn from unhappiness.


You see, all scholars and educators of life will tell you which things are right, if they are right anyway, but many times they won't teach you how to learn from your own life though they may or will recommend it, or how to be happy with the way you live your life... because they don't even know how you live. Many of them live or have lived miserable lives, trying to discover new principles and facts [of] everyday, and the things they teach only lead your life into living like them... miserable!

So friends, Live your life. Learning takes time, so don't strain yourself trying to do what one wise man calls right or good. Be happy and enjoy your freedom and happiness, your life... This is what is right... you can live without many things, including what is almost killing you to learn... you make yourself the kind of person you want to be, and not the kind of people a wise saying requires of you...

This way of living is more satisfying...

Good Things To Do...

Yah, while growing up, many things have given me pleasure to know; in fact, am glad I encountered them as lessons in experience. This is what I've learnt over the years about the things I desire;
1) It's good to love and appreciate everything, but it's indiscipline to think you have to have everything that is good. It's also indiscipline to think that every good thing belongs to you.

2) It is good to love to learn everything, but it's wrong to think you'll learn everything. In fact, you're wrong to think you know everything, yet it's not a bad idea to think you know many things or even to know many things.

3) Age is not the determinant of happiness, but a cheerful and thankful heart. It's doesn't matter how much you have, but how much you appreciate what you have and maximize every single opportunity of happiness in it.

4) Crying won't bring rain. If crying was able to bring rain, then people in the desert lands would have been having the most well drained fertile lands of the world. So, grow up, stop crying!

5) Needs don't kill, so there is no need for being troubled when they don't get satisfied.

6) Avoiding problems is good, so avoid as many problems as you can to minimize of being troubled. There is are big differences between needs and problems, so find them out and you'll know how to live or do away with both.

7) Little things offend many people, so only smile or laugh when necessary, and when you're sure you'll not offend a friend. Un neccessary gestures may earn you enemies rather than friends so be sure you're doing the right things at the right time.

8) Humbleness with a smile will earn you more friends and favors than playfulness and violence. People love to stay in the company of serious but jolly people, playful people accomplish but little tasks and violent people distroy anything they touch, so people don't love them.

9) It cost you nothing to say "am sorry" even when you're wrong, and it is reward is awesome; in fact, it will make many people respect you.

10) Feelings are sometimes liars, but giving them time will help you know which of them is right. Sometimes the conviction of feelings comes because we've seen things in which we have or find a lot of pleasure, but not because those are the things we aspire for...

11) Just be honest, speak honestly and let your acts portray an honest character; this will bring strangers back to your house. Just live an honest life.

12) Always feel young; this feels sweet and gives life a cheerful feeling. Don't look at yourself like a boring philosopher; they find little happiness in many things - look at everything as something good if it won't heart you, and you'll always be happy... just smile to everyone, both babies and old people.

Otherwise, it's good to learn from every experience we encounter, but it's easier to learn from those who have learnt through experience... its cost is cheaper and its effect is great too. Those who learn from other people's experience are good scholars of life... they won't easily get hurt. They are the wise and humble people of this world.

Through The Words of Hitler...

While looking through my mails yesterday, a subject titled “golden words of Hitler” flashed into my eyes, and as you know, this guy is celebrated and regretted, so I had to look through his “golden words” but, after reading through, I could not put it in quotes but rather I had to call them THE GOLDEN WORDS OF HITLER. Read through and agree with me…


Golden Words of Hitler:


*When you are in light, everything will follow you. But when you enter dark, even your own shadow will not follow you that is life.

*God made relatives. Thank God we can choose our friends.

*Money glitters, beauty sparkles, and intelligence shines.

*Keep a very firm grasp on reality, so you can strangle it at any time.

*Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're getting.

*People may not always believe what you say, but they will believe what you do.

*I've always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific.

*You can't have everything - where would you put it?

*Laugh and the world ignore you. Crying doesn't help either.

*God is not moved or impressed with our worship until our hearts are moved and impressed by Him.

*Life is like a mirror, if you frown at it, it frowns back; if you smile, it returns the greeting.

*Never trust a person who isn't having at least one crisis.

*Goodness is the only investment that never fails.

*The only thing lazy people do fast is get tired.

*Never deprive someone of hope; it may be all they have.

*Silence is the only thing that can't be misquoted!

*If we don't control our money, it will control us.

*Life Insurance: A contract that keeps you poor all your life so that you can die rich..

*Some drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.

*Everyone has a photographic memory. Some don't have film.

*If you are living on the edge, make sure you're wearing your seat belt.

*A classic is something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read.

*Minds, like parachutes, only function when they are open.

*The shortest distance between two points is under construction.

*Learn from other people's mistakes, life isn't long enough to make them all yourself.

*On the road, never argue with a vehicle heavier than yours.

*One thing you can give and still keep is your word.

*Life is funny if you don't think about it.

*Life is like a grammar lesson. You find the past perfect and the present tense.

*There are two kinds of lawyers, those who know the law and those who know the judge.

*More doors are opened with 'please' than with keys.


O my God! The last one of these impresses and challenges me so much…! Indeed there is a lot we are able to do with “please” than with “keys”…

So, what do you say about these words? Aren’t they amazing?
