Negative+ Negative= Negative
The youth are angry, but sad and frustrated. The leaders are not helping matters. They are alledged to be issuing threat, force and violence . The elders should no better. Placing travel embargo on members and freezing their bank account would not dillute a heart burning with flame. It shows a government that wants to be feared rather than loved.
If we focus on the injustice, we will see more injustice. If we respond to frustration with anger or violence, we will contribute violence and hatred to the nation. Is that what we truly desire or do you actually desire something else?”
We want a to associate freely with the men in uniform. Let us begin by wsso
Her guides said, “Now you’re getting it. Instead of tearing down what you hate, build up something you love and invite people over. Watch how fast things shift when you create instead of destroy.”
She said, “I really never thought of it that way. I was so mad, so fired up, so angry. I just wanted to hurt the people who are hurting us. But I see now that I could be so much more effective by focusing on the solution instead of contributing to the problem.”
We were both profoundly affected by her guides’ advice. So often we want to rail against what is, when we could focus on creating what we desire. You don’t have to ignore injustice, but the solution is creation, not destruction.
Be a creator, and then be a beacon. Invite people to your creation. Deep down people want to move towards love, not hate, but someone has to build it first.
Think about something you hate that’s going on around you, and then

Pleasure is My Birth Right
Forced into a second wave of Isolation
To prevent Covid 19 extension
News sends ice down my arteries
Endless thirst for water to refill sweaty skin
Fingers vibrate in perturbation
Over analyse Government instruction
Recall previous periodof hunger
Moments of tears inside my locker
Push it beneath my awareness
Deny its existence
Believe I will cope once more
As I anticipate the cure

Wound of absence
Show me I am beautiful
Worthy to be pursued
awaken my Feminine quality
And discover my identity
Not just a sperm receiver
Or your house cleaner
Financially competent
Emotionally absent
But a listener
To listen to my heart whispers
In the absence of one
I stood alone
Turn to destructive addiction
To cure the moment of Isolation
Hide my anxiety
Behind a submissive personality
The first man that should shower me love
Never found me worthy enough

When talking to your kids about sex, it’s important […]
Talking Sex Ed with Kids Part 2
No one enjoys life more
Than one who is willing and ready to die
It is only in the face of death
That One is truely born
Learning to Live well
Is to learn to die well
Dying badly is for those who lived badly
Death is not simply the last moment of life
In birth, our journey towards death begin
Why do you fear the last day
It contributes no more to your death than each of the others
Although the physicality of death destroys man
The idea of death Saves him
Everybody dies but not everybody lives
To live does not mean you are alive

If any truth exist at all,it shout be that common saying which is found in all world Religion. Every mathematics textbook agrees that one + one is two.
To be certain that our belief is true, we ought to compare them with other scriptures and search for similarities and differences. The similarities draws us closer to the truth while the differences makes us question it’s authenticity. But we don’t want see the possibility that we might have been wrong.

Faith is the enemy of truth seeking. By hoping something is true or going to be true does not make it true.To believe in things that are not true can be dangerous.It is worse than gambling.We want our belief to be true so badly that we ignore evidence,reason and our common sence.
If your virgin daughter tells you she is pregnant, we will not believe her. If your teacher tells you be split the sun into three parts,we will call him a liar. We would spread the stories if we found them in an ancient scripture.
We believe In a book that somebody told us that somebody told the person that another person said is true without making attempt to verify its authenticity. This is second hand truth and second hand truth is called hearsay . Lawyers are aware that second hand truth is subjected to mistake so they do not admit it in the court of law . Truth should be based on experience.Eye withness testimony Is admissible in the court of law.
I heard a group tried to test the effectiveness of prayer. They had a group of sick patient prayed for and another group to act as control. The former recovered quicker. This is an example of ones belief tested. You may replicate it if you like. By checking your claim, you become more confident of it’s authenticity.
The piece below, which just appeared in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine, has three co-authors (two medical doctors and a lawyer) calling for removing sex designations from birth certificates—or at least putting them “below the line of demarcation,” which I guess means putting them where they are not publicly accessible.

The words we never spoke
Broke us apart
Grudges burning slowly
For several years
How long shall we continue
To be in a passionless union
Physically present
Emotionally absent
Strangers sharing one roof
Pretending all is well
It is high time we begin to think
Of going our saperate ways
As painless as possible
I truely love you
But I can no longer live with you
I have forgiven you
But I cannot forget the things you did
Replayed in my head each time I see you
One single act
Makes me not to trust you completely
But I cannot forget that
I see you trying to be perfect
I see how hard you try
To make me happy
You deviate from your true self
In other to please me
You will eventually get tired
Until you finally resent me
But our frequency differ
You want it twice a day
I want it monthly
The times I turned you down
I pushed you off me
Into the waiting arms of another.
I made you cheat on me
And then hate you for it
Each time I try to please you
You are happy
While I am hurt
You suggested an open relationship
But I want you all to myself
We are not compatible
It was a mistake from the beginning
Loyalty is a curse
We are better off going our saperate ways
Goodbye my Lover
I hope you meet your match
