Dear Mother


Dear Mother

Your love shines so bright like the morning sun
If you care to know it even shines brighter than the moon in darkness
Because your love knows no boundaries
Even before you had children of your own, you were already a mother to the unloved one and the motherless
I honour you today.

Dear Mother

Your love is like that of a candle because  it burns and melts itself so by it others may see the light
Have I ever told you that your sacrifices made me the responsible man I am today
Have I told you that I am a virtuous crown of a woman to my husband because of your training
I can never trade you for anything in the world
Not for silver and gold
For your love is ever bold
I honour you today


Dear Mother

Daddy still watches you in admiration while you sleep at night
He can't  hide his admiration for your beautiful womanhood
You  have  indeed made a telling impression on him
Your manner of speech
Your manner of care and dedication to him
Even in his dull moments you are still his muse
In his eyes and ours, you are the favour we sought from God
You are adored and loved
If you should ever doubt how much your family loves you
Just look at our proud faces that stare at you as you age
May God bless you above everything that is known in this world.
The world celebrates you mother
We honour you today.

Happy Mother's Day to you in advance.

An Attitude Of Gratitude

To have an attitude of gratitude is the greatest virtue anyone  can have. Because it shows that you are content with the little you have and a happy expectation of all you are yet to have and enjoy in life. If you really want your life to change, then you need to add the habit of  gratitude. I realised that our generation of today take the power of being grateful for granted. Because we are a generation that is burnt on having more and more everyday, we quickly lose sight of the important things we already have that is keeping our life afloat at this moment. It's almost as if each one of us is in competition with one another when it's not supposed to be so. I was born with a disability from birth, an advanced form of poliomyelitis. I had twisted hands and legs as a child so I was only able to crawl on the floor. That was my only way to move. I hated that and myself so much because I wanted to walk just like everybody else. I was consumed so much by hate and ingratitude ...

A Letter To My Daughters On Women's Day

My dear daughters, this is a big occasion for you and every woman on earth. Because the whole world has chosen to celebrate you on this day. But as you are growing, do well to remember these commandments; This life owes you nothing as a woman Neither does this world You are smart and capable on your own Earn everything you want and wish for in this life Do not take crap from anyone, whether a man or a woman Do not cry Infront of anyone who does not like you, my dear daughters, for they will laugh at you and despise you Never expect things to be easy or smooth for you just because you are a woman, everyone in this world; weak or strong have to make things happen for them before they can succeed. Remember that to make it in life, it will take much time and patience. So wear patience like an armour when things don't go well for you as you planned Be gentle,  be sweet but always remember to speak bodly, stand strong and be ready to pull up your skirts to wade through difficu...

Be a Generational Thinker

One of the greatest books I have ever read is Long Walk To Freedom by Nelson Mandela. In his book he talks about the importance of leadership through sacrifice and having a sense of responsibility to develop others as much as yourself. He is seen as an icon, a leader and a symbol of peace and inspiration, not just to his dear nation of South Africa but to the whole world. But let's ask ourselves here, what really made  Nelson Mandela such a celebrated person around the world???  Sacrifice !!!! His selfless sacrifice and desire to see white and black south Africans live in harmony together in the era of Apartheid took him to prison for 27 years. Even after his release from prison in 1990, he worked together with his haters and political opponents in the spirit of unity so that a nation which was once  divided and segregated white, black people, rich and poor people, educated and uneducated can live together as one people for the sake of his generation and generations y...
