FLOWERS & PEOPLE

I was watching a flower come to life the other day and it was very magical and unexplainable. this got me thinking any flower that is not watered and nurtured would eventually wither and die away.
it reminded me of a young girl who is not watered & nurtured with wisdom would eventually die away IE, fall into the hands of the wrong people, get bad advice &make wrong choices.
I am also thinking of a very brilliant mind that is not properly utilised & watered would also wither away. because as the saying goes "a mind is a terrible thing to waste" also i have another "an idle mind is the devil's workshop" A mind that is redundant & static would eventually pack up & die .
A funny thot just came to me, "marriage" you know marriage is the most neglected flower in this garden of life because most times especially in our generation, we jump in & jump out for the wrong and right reasons depending on whose side u belong; some base the foundation of their marriage on culture,tribe, others on religion, ethnicity, & even skin color but even with all once it is not nurtured and watered with love , patience, charity and tolerance it would die off just like a flower without water.
Another interesting part of our garden is our interactions daily with each other. people cultivate relationships for different reasons; business, friendship & etc..... no matter your reason you still to nurture it,because ,once a relationship lacks commitment on both sides it eventually frizzles out.
So as humans in this wonderful garden called life we need nurturing and watering because you don't know who would be your next source of energy we need each other to survive........

Frustration of the working class...JETBLUE example

earlier this week a flight attendant let out his frustration at an obnoxious passenger who was rude to him and he fled the plane,but was later arrested but granted bail. while airline pays the passengers on that flight "compensation" for their troubles saying it's their policy. now the is agog with various sites praising him, immortalizing,dramatization of the whole incidence. this situation has now brought to fore the inevitable question, what happened? that the working class is lashing out, people don't respect honest working individuals,places of employment have become graveyards of dreams and aspirations...........hmmm all these make stop and ponder on what the future holds for us, because if this can happen in America;the supposed most powerful nation in the world?! I wonder what is happening in our 'developing" nation? just my thots

FUEL SUBSIDY: Where Government Got It Wrong

After work yesterday, I had to do some sort of sober reflection on Nigeria’s nascent democracy; I call it nascent because we are still growing and not yet close to the proverbial Promised Land. I realized that besides the fall outs from the June 12 elections, nothing has ever elicited such a collective and emphatic stance from Nigerians as the removal of fuel subsidy right from 1960 up to this moment though I stand to be corrected. So, in my own little quiet zone, being not such a great fan of Nigerian politics due to many factors that has culminated in giving me a liberal standpoint politically, I decided that for the couple of days to come, I would be taking a look at some of the issues that has led to this rather unfortunate milestone in our political journey and how such future occurrences could easily be averted, though it would not be rigidly limited to just the removal of fuel subsidy. For me, I believe it’s high time our democratic ‘rulers’ ( I call them rulers because leaders ...

Has your parent done anything that you know is very wrong but you dare not say anything or else you will get an earful............lol
