i need you

Sure am different from you. Apart of me will descend without you. I am formed complete But will be consumed without you. With my talents,i can go round the world, but my talents coupled with yours am sure would make the world go round us. Yea! we need team up. Else we will get thin wage. Indeed, if we go solo we will remain so low. Sure! We've got to co-operate else we would get results in cup-rates By Samson Adah Paul in "Nigerian Dream"

an old valentine note

Have heard her spoken of around street corners. Seen her despised and neglected by many who claim possession of her. Read alot about her including cherished thoughts. Watched her in movies and yet i wonder. What is love that my mind constantly sets out to seek ? Who is the pair that exists for me ? Is love actually all i desire and is it paramount to my achieving anything in life ? There is alot about love that falling in it only makes our understanding about her to dwindle. I propose that there is this love that even love itself seeks to find. If love love has not found love, why am i in haste ? 13/02/2010

self discovery

On a journey of self discovery he got lost and was easily attracted to the way and manner people went about their daily activities. Socrates said "Man, know thyself". That's a point of note on how the knowledge of self was viewed important by this highly esteemed scholar. Say discovery of self is a process and not an end and my curiosity would be aroused as to how long should it take a man to fully attain full discovery. Or at what level or stage can we say i have fully discovered self ? Maybe since learning is a continuous process, i will just equate same to self discovery. But in our world today, this issue is more propagated than carried out. Its not just about what you like, hate, love or dislike which we are always okay and comfortable at bragging about. Impact is what i want to point my fingers to on this series of self science so that you don't just live in a self created space/vacuum of emotional inconsistencies. But let your living touch just one person positively.

just a thought

I once wrote about the unique nature we possess as individuals and i got reminded about it today by a question or permit me to call it a claim "two heads are better than one". On what grounds should i accept that? I know for real that we are but unique on the bases of our individuality and one would expect that having two heads"A" products should bring about the better than than"one" i suppose. So lets picture this truth; unique would mean being distinctively different from another. The best you can get from a person will come through constant and continuous development of self and that's not really what we see in todays society. We might want to go spiritual andtand further argue that the creator made us unique and as such, why do i belittle. His work ? In my defence,i will ask you to tell me why there is quiet a high level of emphasis on self discovery and discovery of purpose ? Let me conclude by saying your uniqueness will only be fully maximized if you see to it by yourself otherwise,your uniqueness would be on the down scale. That is without significance. The popular saying that iron sharpen iron says alot about how our value can be stated if we are up to our full potential. So before you hope to be the second head that makes the two heads better, stay with yourself and build your persona.
