There are fewer opportunities available than the number of people seeking them, but there are more people to create more opportunities and they are not aware of it. So not being aware of it makes them join the bandwagon of seeking what they can create. I was looking in a full-sized mirror this morning and the man in the mirror was talking to me. His first words were " You stand alone". Then a linear conversation started. I could not respond to what the man in the mirror was telling me. I could just keep his words in my mind and then think about them later on. "You are alone", he continued. You are seeking opportunities, aren't you? Well seek and you shall find but what you shall find is an opportunity created by another man. You shall find the opportunity after seeking it for a duration but I can't tell you the length of the duration. How sure are you that you will seek and find? How will you know the opportunity will be of quality? He continued his one-man ...

I am a victim of Privatised Human Rights. The right to education, the right to food, the right to freedom of speech and all those rights you claim to know well or have heard of are privatized to people like me. It's appalling how the media, news media, politicians and international social organizations preach about rights. Act as if they are delivering them to us for free but in fact, they are not. I find it a joke how I am told I have the right to education but I cannot attend school because I have not been able to pay up the school fees.

Yes I do. But why is it that when I enter the schoolyard, the school officials ask me for proof of...

I woke up this morning to open a new chapter in my life for the world to read and embrace. I have made up my mind to no longer live in a cocoon and openly express who I am to my family. I can easily tell them. But can I manage the reaction easily too? I am a  GAY   CHRISTIAN IN AFRICA. Last night as I was wondering how to break it down to my family and the world, I asked myself. Which element came first and which ones followed? Being  GAY , being a  CHRISTIAN  or being in  AFRICA ? In simple logic I was born in  AFRICA , then I " became" or was made a  CHRISTIAN  then I lastly became  GAY . What if I was  GAY  before I became a  CHRISTIAN  and I just was not aware of it? So I just decided to put it in a sequence of what I am first, being  GAY . Followed by what I was indoctrinated to be, a  CHRISTIAN  and lastly my continental location  AFRICA . So I am  a GAY CHRISTIAN IN AFRICA. I am fine wi...
