THE NIGHT SEASON OF LIFE

Image
The Night Season of Life       The night season of life is a season of endless toil. Fruitfulness seems to dwell miles-off from our habitation and bareness becomes our next-door neighbour. In the night season of life, the human logic, wisdom and science seems to fail and have no meaning or semblance to reality. They become a mirage that eludes us when it appears we are about finding the answer. In the night season of life, men exert all manner of physical strength that only seems to ricochet with the ammo of disappointment and yields tons of disappointment as output. In the night season of life, the human logic, wisdom and sciences becomes a question to be probed rather than a means to answer the question of the bitter times.

It was even the drawing board to expunge and inculcate the technicalities that makes the universe a scientist delights. It was the culture ground...

SUSTAINING YOUR THICKNESS

                            While we were yet embryos, the configuration to make us stand out in life was genetically engineered in us to ensure we don't lack the necessary make-up for us to succeed as we embark on the life journey called Destiny.   The world marvels and yearn for that which makes us thick among the packs (of similarities, sycophancy, sheer and pathological mediocrity).   Your thickness is your identity and signature on the pages of destiny. It carries the drive for excellence in whatever you do. What makes you thick is your highest selling point and your brand identity. It is what makes you highly sought after and well prized. It is your real value in the market of it kind. It is also what people look forward to see in you. It is your default intellectual property, it is even called Goodwill by some. It cannot be transfe...
