Ahasuerus And The Sea

Legend has it that Ahasuerus {Xerxes I of Persia} once ordered his soldiers to punish the sea with 300 strokes of whip for disobeying him!

As crazy as it may sound, there is a lesson here.

NATURE WAS MADE FOR US AND NOT THE OTHER WAY ROUND

Can Somebody Tell Them?

Life is filled with a certain kind of feeling

To people who are just learning how to grow

Some say it’s a needless kind of misery

For they can’t tell the way they ought to go

Looking at the different kinds of suffering

Experienced by some kids across the globe

Some say it’s a needless kind of peril

For they’re baffled by the ways things unfold

This is the way i know they often see it

They wonder how to ever get over their pain

That’s the story of the kids with disease

Wondering how to ever go through the rain

Can somebody tell them how to break free from this killing spree on their own?

Can somebody tell them how to be healed and give them the strength and the hope to breakthrough in life and not just cope?

Be the hope which makes them move from being blue to somewhere new

ARE YOU WILLING TO START HELPING THESE CHILDREN PROPERLY?

Treat People Right

In addition to love, the efficiency of human relationships, societies and organizations thrives primarily on respect, honesty, ethics and integrity

Efficiency, however, is not stupidity

Assume it is, especially with knowledgeable people, and you’ll get a response that’s colder than humidity

Even one thing is clear to every right-minded celebrity

The people always working to make you look good should never be treated like a nonentity

An organization, in whatever category, is as good as its workforce

If they’re not treated right, the organization will eventually collapse to its very source

Only those who are not upfront try to monitor everyone and everything around them, every now and then

In as much as it’s good to be observant, encroaching on other people's space and privacy and acting like a control freak is like gallantly walking into the proverbial lion’s den

Despite their relevance, that should give you an idea of why the Secret Service, FBI, CIA and the likes, make some decisions that the whole world continues to condemn

Over and over again, relationships are being ruined because people take advantage of others and make everyone along with themselves, directly or indirectly, feel insecure

Let this inspire us all in a movement which makes the whole world know the best of relationships is what we should often assure

DO WE TREAT PEOPLE RIGHT?

When The Mind Can't Be Imprisoned

An old farmer wrote a letter to his son in prison.

Dear son,

This year, I will not plant cassava and yam because I can’t cultivate the field.

I know if you were here you would have helped me.

Yours sincerely,

Your Dad.

The son replied his father.

Dear Dad,

Don’t even think of cultivating the field because that’s where I buried the money I stole.

Yours sincerely,

Your Son.

Upon reading this letter, the Police and Prison officials went early in the morning and dug the whole field in search of the money but nothing was found.

The next day, the son wrote his father again.

Dear Dad,

You can now plant your cassava and yam. This is the best I can do from here.

Yours sincerely,

Your Dear Son.

His Dad then replied.

My Dear Son,

Wow, you are too powerful indeed. Even in prison, you still command police men to work for me. I was surprised to see the Inspector General of Police and his team holding hoes and shovels and digging my farm. I will write to you when I want to harvest.

Yours sincerely,

Your Grateful Dad.

The Unusual Security Safe

Let’s ponder this.

One day, some armed robbers abandoned the greatest heist of their career and took off through the back exit after seemingly noticing an undertaker coming into the bank’s ambience with a small coffin. They never knew the small coffin was filled with a lot of cash!

WHO SAYS GOD CAN NEVER USE ANYONE OR ANYTHING TO SAVE?

Now or Never

Can everyone tell me how to live in a world

So full of hatred, deceit and discord

That people’s lives no longer worth very much

But some great delights in the devourer’s lunch?

How can I ever truly understand

Why people so hate their neighbours’ stand

That they do anything to seek their fall

Without minding how it affects all?

These are some of the questions

That seek answers in all nations

In the meantime, with one tongue, let’s come together and move along

It’s got to be now or never to start thinking straight

It’s got to be now or never to take charge of our fate

It’s got to be now or never to move forward

It’s got to be now or never to save our world

MORE THAN EVER BEFORE, IS THIS NOT THE TIME TO MAKE OUR WORLD THE WORTHWHILE PLACE TO LIVE IN?

The Conditional Theory

If your life seems to be boring and full of routines, brighten it up

If your hopes and dreams seem to be nosediving, do a thorough review, relaunch and step up

If you’re depressed, choose to be really cheerful

If you’re sad, insecure and scared, choose to be very happy, assured and avoid being fearful

If some people assume you can’t make it in life except by joining their group, clique, cult or caucus, let them know that true success doesn’t come through any rite

If things are not working out the way you envisaged, learn how to make it right

If you pay attention long enough and keep doing the right things with the right people at the right times in the right places, you’ll eventually lose count of how many things you’ve won

If you discover that you’re in love with a person who doesn’t feel the same, move on and you’ll brighten your chance of meeting the right one

If you’re already in a loving relationship, don’t take things for granted

Playing games with the one who truly loves you and cares about you is an act a lot of people have regretted

If you feel you’re ugly, seek help from the right people who will enlighten you on being truly beautiful

If you bring this poem to reality, you’ll realise that life can be truly wonderful

ARE YOU READY TO MAKE YOUR LIFE TRULY WONDERFUL?

Say No To Giving Up

All sorts of scenarios happen every day

Always find the right ways to deal with them, come what may

You can’t allow the troubles of life to mess you up

You just have to keep rising up

Don’t settle for being a victim of circumstance

Be the true winner who can go the distance

Overcome your personal demon

Create the laudable legacy that will live on

Be the true pacesetter on your way to the top

Don’t let daunting assertions make you to stop

A lot of people would’ve excelled in life if they didn’t give up

In this context, giving up is allowing yourself to be messed up

ARE YOU WILLING TO EITHER TRULY RISE ABOVE THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE OR GIVE UP?

Fools' Cry

They know that they have missed something, though they can’t say why

This is so costly that it always makes them cry

They wonder why

They recall everything clearly about how they used to believe in true love

At the time that was lovely without a single flaw to mess things up

If they can change something right now then it’s the hand of time

They wish that they just know how to bring you back as theirs for all time

If they have their way, then they’ll wish to be saved from their misery

Now, they know only fools lose jewels like you

CAN WE ALL SPREAD THE WORD AND HELP THE WHOLE WORLD TO START APPRECIATING THEIR TRUE LOVED ONES AT ALL TIMES?

The Race And Chase of Life

Nowadays, against time, everything has become a race

Either right or wrong, everyone seems to be chasing something which varies in each continent, nation, country and race

In relationships, players are pretending everywhere and chasing monetary gains and every ‘curve’

It’s no surprise how they often mistake lust for love

In politics, because they claim that there are no permanent friends and enemies

They go about displaying their folly without remedies

In business, while some are doing things in the right and lawful manner

Others are busy forming partnerships and chasing profit by hook or crook like Bonnie and Clyde desperately fighting against being put asunder

In religion, the truthful and pious ones still choose to be divinely inspired and do laudable exploits

However, the confused ones, still in the name of religion, directly and indirectly, unleash terror and extort the populace as their own ridiculous exploits

In sports and entertainment, at all costs, most of the stars keep chasing glory

That’s why when some of them play dirty, for their mindset, you’ll feel sorry

Among other scenarios and walks of life, everyone is indeed still chasing something

Make sure that yours is worthwhile, either you’re dealing with a human being or thing

WHO OR WHAT ARE YOU CHASING?

My Workable Orientation

I’m very focused on laudable visions, goals, plans and actions that are many

That’s why I’m trying as much as possible to keep making them happen early

Well calculated are all my moves and steps

I believe such a strategy truly helps

Every now and then, I act like the real and refined modern-day Michael Corleone and the Godfather, as I always know, "I’m gonna make you an offer you can’t refuse"

It makes a lot of sense, if you can deduce

I don’t have time for squabbles and petty politics

People doing so are like retarded ones on narcotics

Don’t get me wrong

I just believe that caring about people and being truthful keep me very strong

Take it to the bank, this is not a strategy about 'me, myself and I'

If everyone lives by this 'visionary strategy’ and complements the same with empathy, there’ll be less troubles on earth as we keep rising, together, very high

Songs of Joy

My heart keeps pounding

On hearing some stories

In some countries which are terrifying

People are suffering out of conflicts

Among warring factions, it’s just crazy

That’s why we have to do something

Touch lives and start the healing

Over and over again, keep learning and improving

Life is not a toy

Let’s sing songs of joy

HAVE WE NOT HAD ENOUGH OF SHENANIGANS, CONFLICTS AND UNNECESSARILY RIDICULOUS POLITICS ACROSS THE GLOBE?

Knowledge Is Power

They say challenges of life make you strong

History and experiences have proven that notion wrong

It has become very clear that knowledge is power

That’s the truth and fact every moment, second and hour

Having the true idea of a situation is the first step towards seeking its lasting solution

This makes a lot of sense considering even the 'good book's point of view; "my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge"

The person who is absolutely sure of what he or she is doing hardly ever falls off the edge 

For instance, instead of feeling like a victim of circumstance if your life is not where it’s supposed to be

Be willing to seek the appropriate knowledge and learn how to properly apply them beyond the conventional points A to B

That, my friend, marks the beginning of your change of status from stupidity, errors, failures and poverty to success, victory and wealth inspired by the divinely inspired wisdom

Then you’ll realise what it means to be in charge and enjoy your kingdom

Congrats; I believe, now, you know better and this calls for a celebration but it should be without any rum

ARE YOU WILLING TO SEEK, FIND AND APPLY THE APPROPRIATE KNOWLEDGE FOR THE BEST OF RESULTS?

Something To Ponder And Laugh About!

Hello, is this Gordon’s Pizza?

No sir, it’s Google’s Pizza.

Did I dial the wrong number?

No sir, Google bought the pizza store.

Oh, all right then, I’d like to place an order please.

Okay sir, do you want the usual?

The usual? You know what my usual is?

According to your caller ID, in the last 15 times, you’ve ordered a 12-slice with double-cheese, sausage, and thick crust.

Okay, that’s what I want this time too.

May I suggest that this time you order an 8-slice with ricotta, arugula, and tomato instead?

No, I hate vegetables.

But your cholesterol is not good.

How do you know?

It's through the subscribers guide. We have the results of your blood tests for the last 7 years.

Maybe so, but I don’t want the pizza you suggested. I already take medicine for high cholesterol.

But you haven’t taken the medicine regularly. 4 months ago, you purchased from Drugsale Network a box of only 30 tablets.

I bought more from another drugstore.

It’s not showing on your credit card, sir.

I paid in cash.

But according to your bank statement you did not withdraw that much cash.

I have another source of cash.

This is not showing on your last tax form, unless you got it from an undeclared income source.

What the hell? Enough! I’m sick of Google, Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp. I’m going to an island without internet, where there’s no cellphone line, and no one to spy on me!

I understand sir, but you’ll need to renew your passport. It expired 5 weeks ago.

I GOT THIS JOKE FROM A FRIEND OF MINE.

The Ideal Son-in-law

After a sumptuous lunch on an unusually cool day

An old man, to his son-in-law, had something to say

“I hope all’s well between you and my daughter”

“She is so good”, says the son-in-law, “that I can’t do without her”

“Please tell me more”, says the father-in-law, “I need to be sure’

The son-in-law says ’‘my wife’s love is ever pure”

Sarcastically, the old man asks, “is another grandchild coming?”

Promptly responding, the young man says “our current child is still growing’’

The old man then asks again, “did I sense family planning?”

“Sir”, the young man continues, “is it not worth doing?”

“You’re gradually becoming the ideal son-in-law”, says the old man

“Sir, you’re also the best”, says the young man 

To that, the old man says, “so, you’ve met the good and better before”

Sensing the old man’s sarcasm, again, he says, “never before”

Finally, the father-in-law says, “tell me what distinguished you among her suitors”

Then the son-in-law responds, “my true love for her and not boredom like some tutors”

My Sweetheart

This is for my lovely skin sweetheart

Every thought of you obviously brings joy to my heart

It’s just like yesterday, when I first cited your beauty while you were chilling

Since then, our unusual love story, to all generations, is always worth telling

To your love and affection, I enjoy being addicted

You give me the best of reasons to be loyal and say to the ‘others’ that “i’m not interested”

Playing hard to get is never in your vocabulary

However, anyone assuming that you’re cheap will only be involved in nothing but foolery

Our sweet gentle liplock is always incomparable

When you lay down gently, your description is always adorable

Making out with you is healthy and like no other 

By the way, this is an ode to my chocolate bar

So, dear reader, get your mind out of the gutter

If you don’t, perhaps, I’ll knock the sense into you as a serious matter

WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?
