Living purpose

Image
Sometimes it's really hard to comprehend, pertaining to the higgledy-piggledy that's involved in living. Just living, is like a tree planted along the stream of water. It flourishes and produces good fruits seasonally without difficulties. On the contrary, living on purpose is accompanied by an epitome or an embodiment of persistent and consistent incitements, instigations, countersigns and antagonisms. To live on purpose, is to cause change by building an invincible legacy that would be written in the hearts of people generation after generation, and to ignite the desires of others to do the same. I've asked myself time and time again about how I could make a difference whiles I live, and the answer has always been the same. Each and everyone has a responsibility to contribute to the significance of purposefulness. Looking at the challenges that faces the world today, it's absolutely unacceptable to disregard the usefulness of living on purpose. Children are homele

Rise of Terrorism

Image
           The term terrorism can be traced at least to the first century. It has no definite definition but from my point of view terrorism is a criminal violent act of an individual or group of people just to achieve a political goal or their own selfish acts. To mention a few of the countries that have been a victim of terrorism include America, Egypt, Iraq, Afghanistan, Nigeria and just recently France. One can tell how bad this situation is just by watching the news. A total number of 9,929 deaths occurred in Iraq in 2014. One can just imagine the effects it may have had on others, especially families of deceased ones.                I don't agree with terrorism being major or minor. Terror is terror. Endangering just a life can cost someone a lot in his or her current situation. Take this scenario  where a man catering for a family of 5 decides to go and watch a football game and he's stabbed unluckily for him leading to his death. Just imagine whatever that will hap

AFRICA AGAINST CORRUPTION

Image
        Every now and then it occurs to me that Africa as a continent is characterized by a common label, a label which is diminishing the image of Africa, retarding and as a matter of fact blocking most of the continent's progress and development. Indeed I'm speaking of the label 'CORRUPTION' . How I wish the word never existed to be expressed or practised. It is so sad that some of these countries in Africa took about 50 years and above to get to where they are  yet still just a ten-lettered-word 'C-O-R-R-U-P-T-I-O-N' is tearing all the toil apart. Sometimes I sit and wonder, " Could it be that African leaders are so blind to see or so dumb to hear what corruption is leading the continent into?" Well lets just hope they aren't because if they are then Africa might just be about facing worse situations than now.           Lets take a quick look around and see what corruption is leading most African countries into. Lives are being lost, propert

ORIGIN OF LIFE

Image
As a young Christian scientist, i have met a lot of debates as to how the life began. Where as the religious ones say the earth has a Creator who is superior to all, the scientists believe and attribute origin of life to a physical force, THE BIG BANG THEORY  and EVOLUTION. Creation is the art of bringing something new into existence . As a Christian i would speak on the Christian  perspectives of creation. In the very first chapter of the Bible which is Genesis chapter 1 gives a vivid account of the order in which creation took place. It even goes further to say it was only man that was created with the HAND OF GOD. The rest of all organisms were spoken words. ORDER OF CREATION.(GEN1:1-27) FIRST DAY- Heaven and Earth, Day and night & light and darkness SECOND DAY - firmament to seperate the heavens from earth THIRD DAY - separate water from land and created plants. FOURTH DAY - luminary bodies FIFTH DAY: fishes, birds and beasts SIXTH DAY- man The Bible though did not

Seize Ethnocentrism And Racism Now!

         Believe you me it will surprise you that even with how far the world have go to, 'Racism' and' Ethnocentrism' still exist,most especially ethnocentrism. Well let me first break these two huge-but-no-huge words down so someone out there can understand what this whole piece is all about. According to Oxford Dictionaries, Racism "is the discrimination, prejudice or antagonism against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior. On the other hand, Ethnocentrism "is the evaluation of other cultures according to preconceptions originating in the standards and customs of one's own culture. "I do believe that by now whoever is reading this article might have understood where I am heading towards,if not then stick and read ahead.          Permit me to be a bit religious here but you all will bear sincerely with me that irrespective of our religious affiliations, we do believe that the Creator of this entire
