essence

Have you ever found yourself in that situation where your world seems to be crumbling, everything seems to be out of place, and you are asking 'why do bad things happen to us? Why do we ever have to feel sad? Why do we lose those things that matter to us?....
Come to think of it, why do this things happen to us? Why can't we be happy forever and always?
Numerous theories have been propounded to explain this phenomenon. Some say its karma, others say destiny, which I personally disagree with. So I came up with my own theory which some people think is a modification of the first. My postulation attributes mishaps to acknowledgment of our essence as humans, helping us to appreciate one another. When we are down we obviously need someone to lift us up. Now that is the essence of our existence.
So when next you are down, don't waste time groping, look for a friend to share with!

Nigerian youths urged to be self employed

That's like one of the saddest news headlines ever. Completely going against promises we have been made to believe of how jobs would be created and employment made available. Now youths are being asked to be self employed. So I ask 'what has my country done for me?' The answer came too easily; nothing! What's worse, we now have to go beyond providing our own power, health care, transport... Just when i thought the list was already exhausted our amiable leaders added employment to it. So what they are saying is that in addition to not being well paid for the jobs they do, they now have to create more jobs, pay themselves, and others, that is like asking a man in a bucket to lift himself up by pulling the handle. Now what could be worse than that, in terms of insanity.
