A CALL TO RELEVANCE

"An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity" Dr Martin Luther King
This quote has influenced my life greatly, over the last few years. I have come to understand life from a perspective of making impact.

Living a life that is relevant here starts when you as an individual can rise above the narrow confines of your individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.

It is a conscious effort and a daily commitment to make a difference in lives. You don't have to be bold, beautiful, rich, famous to do that, you are just amazing the way you are. Touch the life next to you.

The life you have been given is a gift, use it wisely and make positive impact that matters in the lives of men. The best investment you can ever make on earth is investing in lives and dreams.

Get out of that comfort zone, look around you, there are lives to impact, broken hearts to mend, dreams and visions to empower and a worthy legacy to leave for those who are coming behind you.

You have only one life to live and a short one at that, thus if you must live, live a life that is different and relevant.

This quote by Etienne De Grellet readily comes to mind "I shall pass this way but once, any good that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being, let me do it now, let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again."

One day you will sit back and watch your life in retrospect. I hope you will have a smile and not a frown on that face. I hope you won't live in regrets. Today is a good time to start living an intentional life that is relevant. Where you are is the best place to start, you don't have to be loud about it, just live and make a difference.

When it is time to bow out of this stage, the world will mourn your departure, because of the hearts you have touched and heaven will rejoice over your homecoming.

Stay blessed.

THE BRAIN: POWERFUL DETERMINANT FOR ACTIVATION OF POTENTIALS

Image
The brain is the number one evidence and epitome of gabbage in gabbage out. I have heard some people say "Oh if I read this for a long time, my brain will explode. Lol, sweetheart that is super untrue.  Research has it that, only 2% of the human brain has been used 98% remains mostly  unused, so there ain't an explosion that comes from maximizing the brains capacity. Our brain weighs 1.4 kilogram and suprisingly has 14 billion nerve cells, so it has the ability to contain large stock of information, larger that has ever been stuffed into anyone's brain.  A great research was made by some neurosurgeons in their bid to understand the capacity of the human brain. This research was carried out with two categories of brains which were : The brain of a freshly dead professor and that of an illiterate who left his brain dormant. It took pretty time to do this great comparism and GUESS WHAT!!!🤩🤭😌😁😁😁 There  was no difference between the brains when compared in te

BURST THAT COCOON ( BTC )

Image
D BROKEN SILENCE!!!! Some 8years ago , I feared standing up in the midst of a crowd not to talk of speaking to them. The irony about the issue was that i always had a succinct idea that i believed was needful to place this aright, but i always squabble in fear and let my mouths get sealed up. She got into trouble because i found it difficult to say a word and prove her guiltless. I got bullied a couple of times because my silence made them feel I was configured to be maltreated. I missed bonus marks in the class, not because I didn't know the answer to the "seemingly tough question" but because i just kept silence about my knowledge , feeling so timid to say my mind. Amidst this years people kept on telling me, don't worry its just the best way to be - SILENT, I felt worst when I noticed in my small veil- covered mind that even those who spoke made no difference. I never knew that a word fitly spoken can turn tides even if not immediately . The whole scene kept

9/11 Memorabilia damaged by fire!

http://edition.cnn.com/2014/10/03/us/pennsylvania-flight-93-memorial-fire/index.html?hpt=hp_t3  -- A fire erupted Friday at the headquarters of the Shanksville, Pennsylvania, memorial to United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed on September 11, 2001, officials said. "There is a potential for 9/11 memorabilia loss due to a fire," according to a statement from the National Park Service, but the extent of the damage is not known yet. NPS spokesman Mike Litterst said 10% of the archives and museum collection was stored in the damaged buildings, but much of it was kept in a fireproof safe. Among the items in the damaged buildings was a U.S. flag that flew over the U.S. Capitol on the day of the terrorist attack. The flag was given to the Flight 93 National Memorial last September 11. Its status was not known. Four buildings were damaged, the park service said. Heavy rain helped the firefighting efforts. Seven fire companies responded to the blaze, which starte
