Monday Uplift: DARE TO DREAM

For thousand years ago, the only people in the world were monkeys and they said,'We'll never walk' Erectus,We'll never talk, 'We'll never use tools and one monkey called the HOMOSAPIEN said 'Oh Yeah!,I'm walking and talking right now.... That monkey was DREAMER.

500years after, the Wright brothers decided to make a flying machine,'you fools,you idiots!What's your problem' , everyone shouted. 'That will never work because plywood weighs more than air'. 2weeks after, the Wright brothers responded 'No,it doesn't, this will work.'. The Wright Brothers were DREAMERS.

Vincent Vanghal, everyone told him 'you have only one year, you cannot be a great artist' and you know what he said, 'I can't hear you'. Vincent Vanghal was a DREAMER.

To Benjamin Franklin, people said 'you can't fly a plane in a rainstorm' and Benjamin said 'Yes,You can. If you have an electric kite'. He was a DREAMER too.

SO DARE TO DREAM, DREAM YOUR WILDEST DREAMS, YOU CAN CLIMB THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN, YOU CAN DROWN IN A TEACUP IF YOU FIND A BIG ENOUGH TEACUP AND IF SOMEBODY TELLS YOU YOU CAN'T DO SOMETHING, YOU SAY TO THEM 'YES I CAN BECAUSE I'M DOING IT RIGHT NOW. DARE TO DREAM.
(Quote culled from a movie 'Dinner for Schmucks)

Have a great week people.

Live, Love and Learn.

AWAITING OUR OWN MAX - LESSON FROM 'ELYSIUM'

By Bamidele Salako If you’re yet to see Elysium, one of the rave-making blockbuster movies of this summer, then I advise you grab a copy now or get to the nearest cinema ASAP (it’s still showing in theatres) where you can be accorded the ultimate movie viewing experience – if you can afford it lol. Don’t get me wrong o! This is not a paid advertisement or promo for the movie or for film houses; Elysium is simply a must-watch, not just for movie aficionados but for all Nigerians who are burdened by the seemingly never changing state of affairs in our dear country – our intractable unpleasant collective existence which has unwittingly produced the popular enduring mantra – “E go better.” Except on very special occasions, I am not one to go to the movies for the sheer pleasure of it. It’s not in my culture. My best moments are the ones I spend alone reading good books or surfing the internet for an eclectic array of great opinion pieces, news features, a...

Asoebi: Felicitation or Burden?

It's the start of the weekend and boy am I excited. I can imagine you on the other hand have an event or a list of events lined up to make your weekend interesting. I'm just going to be in my room, on my bed, sipping cocoa, indulging in my favourite pastime activity; blogging, reading and listening to classical music, don't hate. #noteverytimeturnup. But for now, I'll share with you a little something something. So, as I stepped out of church on one sunday like that, I bumped into a childhood friend. Looking at how grown she looked made me realise I don old sha! If you are a catholic like I am, you will agree with me that not all your catheticism classmates remain in the fold as you grow. Many will leave to find their salvation elsewhere, personal reasons or relocation. This was why I was shocked when I saw my old friend. What had she come to do, I quizzed my mind. Then it occurred to me that only one thing could bring her back, at this time. Wedding?
