Dear Woman

*Dear Woman*

Dear Woman
Do not be ashamed of who you are
For you are the pillar of strength and power
For ages you have been our world's caregiver
Nature's true mother
And God's own ambassador
The world is formed from you and you complete it
You are the diamond that glitters in bright light in this dark world today
You are a symbol of love, tenderness and care
If only you knew how precious you are
Oh dear woman

Dear Woman
Did you ever know that you are a man's joy and happiness
His wise counsel and oracle of wisdom
Yet your value is not much appreciated in a man's world
You suffer silently and quietly out of love for everybody's sake
You rise early morning to attend to your family
You ensure everyone is cared for
But who cares for you?
Yet you put on a brave face and a smile and stand beside the man who takes all your glory
If only I could take your pain and sorrow away
And replace with endless joy
Just for you to shout and leap for joy
Oh dear woman


Dear Woman
Now your time has come to take your rightful place
With confidence in yourself and boldness
Your new world is set before you
Take hold of it and claim your freedom
No more tears  no more sorrows
No more playing second best
No more feeling unworthy
No more feeling sorry for yourself
It is your time to shine
And that time is now
You are a queen
Get ready to put your crown of glory back on
And reign reign and reign
I honour you today and forever
Oh dear woman.

The Paradox of Our Times

*THE PARADOX OF OUR TIMES* Is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers Wider freeways and roads but smaller viewpoints We spend more, but we have less. We have bigger houses, but smaller families More conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees, but less sense More knowledge, but less judgement More experts, but more problems More medicines, but less healthy lives We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little and hate too often We have learnt how to make a living, but not how to make a life. We have added years to life, but not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back But have trouble crossing the street to meet or greet the new neighbour. We have conquered outer space, but not our inner hearts We've cleaned up the air in our environment  but destroyed our souls. We claim to love all people but quick to show our prejudice We've higher incomes, but lower morals. We'v...

Support Small Business Owner Friends And Family To Grow

To all my self-employed, small business owner friends and family,  this article is dedicated to us!!!! Rihanna releases a lip gloss, people buy it.  Michael Jordan puts out new trainers in stores, people flock to these stores to buy them instantly. Dr. Dre  has new headphones, people buy it. Oprah Winfrey, the richest black woman in the world introduces a new weight loss and diet control program, people jump on board and flow with it. BeyoncĂ© has a new concert, people queue in line to go spend £250 on a ticket just to watch her performance. A friend or family member of ours starts a business, and soon we become weary.  We say things like "Not sure this is going to work"  "This business you are starting is not going to go anywhere, I'll give you only 6 months, it will collapse to the ground"  " this your product is too expensive, you will be out of business in no time if you don't reduce your prices" Those of you, putting out negative comments...

USA And The Western World is Against Polygamy.. Our Ghana Law is Against LGBT Rights. Will They Allow To Set Up a Polygamy Office In Their Country??

On June 26 2015, the US supreme court struck down all state laws banning same - sex marriages and legalised in all the fifty states across America. I remember that day, pretty well watching CNN seeing then host taking the live feed Anderson Cooper in a jubilant mood. Pictures from the supreme court also painted the same picture. Men kissing men passionately, and women kissing women passionately and locking tongues as well. All this outside the US supreme court for the whole country and the whole world to see that the United States of America, the greatest free country on earth is now fully endorsing gay marriage and approving LGBT rights. The gay pride parade was insane, trust me. A few months later, some European Union countries also joined in and legalised it unanimously. I could recall on that evening I called up one of my Brazilian friends, a woman who had always been a strong advocate and a strong supporter of LGBT rights to pick her mind on what had just happened in the US. ...
