The worst feeling I have ever had was when I was retrenched, the company thought it best to let go all the new boys who would not cost much in the take away packages and this was my first job ever. I cannot even express the feeling of loneliness that I felt, I was at the lowest, and this to me was rejection at its worst. Read the rest of this entry »

Can you remember this time last year, where you were, who you were with and what you did to usher in the New Year? If you can’t remember, I definitely can. The end of the year has come again, a time to reflect over the events of the year gone by, take stock, count victories and loses, and make plans for the new. Well that’ what I would normally do, or what would you do you normally do? Read the rest of this entry »

In societies where marriage is non-existent, this statement is irrelevant. People stack up, shack up and rack up at will. Whenever they have the urge they merge and produce babies out of wedlock.

I asked the question, “what is life” and I got a number of different opinions. Some one said that it was the study of attention, another said that it was a marathon not a destination and the most amazing answer was from a six year old who said that life was like an maze, you keep trying to get to the end of it by making wrong turns and trying to correct them.
