Still asking "WHY"?

I cannot but keep asking why our world is the way it is.A place where stand is run and run means a command to stand at attention.Why is evil so easy to live with and the good so hard to tolerate?Why would people consciously decide to become armed robbers and prostitutes and wholeheartedly blame it on the society?Why do politicians shamelessly steal public funds and the name embezzlement hypes it endlessly?Why would a married man constantly prove that marriage is a license to commit adultery?Why would dating an older man who is married be celebrated by any woman at all?Why is sex so cheap these days?Why are religious leaders worshipping money rather than God?Endless whys...but wait...why are we so judgemental and so quick to draw conclusions?

I was on my way home from work last week at about 9pm when I saw a little boy.I couldn't resist stopping to ask him what he was doing at that time in the heart of a city.Just before I opened my mouth to ask,I saw a bowl full of satchets of water sitting next to him.He was clad in a pair of black shots and a t-shirt that seemed to have been white.He was shivering,for it was a cold rainy night.His head was sadly bent over his body counting the few money notes in his hand.His name he said was Joshua and he is just 10 years.Joshua lives with his mother's younger sister in a suburb miles away from where I saw him.Tears welled up in my eyes.He looked most pitiable.I chatted with Joshua for some good minutes and made sure I shared my love with him.When I saw the smile light up his sullen face...I thought to myself..."my job is done here."

Yes,answers bow only to questions but if we just ask,receive answers and do nothing about the answers received...more complex questions wil ask us to a duel.Just a little a love will solve any questions,even those as tall as the mountains and and as stubborn as the raging sea.

where have Amanda been?

Wish I could begin to tell all the tales just on this page as concisely as possible.It will be an uphill task both for me and you too dear reader.However,October was a very busy month for me.Imagine,not having time to pen down anything for you to read?It was just too muddled up.Started with twin bombings in Abuja where I reside and then the loss of a very dear aunt.It was just too emotional for me but you can bet I am back on this blog for good.Lets keep keeping on and most importantly stay saluting the creator and giver of life.Life is a treasure no man should be quick to part with!

Reasons for sharing

Knowledge,to me is closely linked to our identity.sharing is generally a willful method of disemminating useful information to other people.By sharing, we build realationships so that what we share is received and treated with respect.Actually,knowledge sharing and relationships are interlinked.It is therefore,imperative that we share love which is the bedrock of any lasting relationship. Why am I sharing anyway? I know you are just wondering why you should bother about sharing anyway,you probably feel you are not loved enough or not loved at all.mhnnn...the question is how much love do you give,how much love can you afford to share? Well,you know what they say,habits die hard...I simply love to share and again I share out of a sense of responsibility for my future...."what you sow is what you reap!".I feel there is a huge gap that needs us to fill it,simply by sharing love. This love could be for that husband who isn't living up to responsibility,that wife who wouldn...

How can we share love in a world void of love?

As each day passes,I see that so many people do not understand what sharing love is all about.Just last night,I saw a man,not a boy.I mean a full fledged man beating up a lady just by the roadside as if she were some common thief.On inquiry,I discovered she was his girlfriend.Did I hear you say,what?!!!.mhnnn...the feeling is mutual,but come to think of it,he may have had a reason which he felt was good enough to beat her up.Someone may say no reason is good enough...chapter closed. I remember sharing with you earlier that every person has a reason for every action he/she takes,wether good or bad.If he had beat her to death,he will still have a reason for his action and he would engage the services of a lawyer who will readily defend him in the court of law.That's the kind of world we live in...simply void of love. You know,on television this morning,I just kept hearing the news on rape.In case you are thinking the victim may have caused it for herself,well sorry to diasppoint ...
