I thought I knew everything until I listened to others. I thought I was the best until I gave others a chance. Then I thought I was insignificant until I listened to others commend my words and actions. It seems no one sees himself except through a reflection. I have resolved to be a mirror reflecting the best in others, and hoping that others will do the same for me.


He is a foolish man who resists new knowledge, avoids new experience, and frustrates those who don't. His life ends before he lives it; in the dustbin of history. .


They died like chicken. Their only crime being they were from a wrong race and a wrong tribe. Mostly women and children caught in the fire of the invaders' guns and their matchets' merciless cuts. Endless wailings on the Plateau. Anger and frustrations in the land. But soon, we will forget the pain as if it never happe...


I am stupid. I accept. It takes stupidity, utter stupidity, to stick to rules that make for a decent society. I refuse to litter the streets, bribe the police, or pay more for official services or documents. I do not create a 3rd lane on a 2-lane road. I stop at the red light, for sure, and give the right of way to the first driver to reach a junction. And too bad, I pay taxes. I am really stupid.
