TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF BEFORE YOU'RE TAKEN CARE OF

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF BEFORE YOU'RE TAKEN CARE OF Oftentimes, we’re saddled with responsibilities and deadlines that demand our energy, time, and focus. Even when our health is at risk, we push through, convinced that the task must be completed. Even when stress creeps in, we keep ploughing forward. But pause for a moment… What if you break down in the process? What if your health starts to deteriorate? What if you can no longer move forward with your goals? What if you end up i...

ROOTED IN REASON

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes, we know it. Other times, it remains hidden from us. It can appear good or bad, bring ease or hardship, but whatever form it takes, let’s remain grateful and hopeful. Stay positive, and never downplay your efforts, for every effort matter. Every result is rooted in a cause. As Isaac Newton said, “For every action, there’s an equal and opposite reaction.” Making the right choice, even when it is tough always worth it. strive to do what’s...

BEGIN WITH A FRESH BREATH

BEGIN WITH A FRESH BREATH Rise, regardless of the wounds carved by tears and fears. See beyond the chains of your own mind, shatter them. Let the wreckage of yesterday become the foundation for a new dawn. Breathe in a new beginning, a new you. This is your moment to not just begin anew, but to truly become new. A fresh you and a new you. Always remember that every end is a new beginning. So, let out the wound and not the lessons. Now, unlock your mind and unshackle that great potential. It's...

BENEATH THE MANGO TREE Seeing mango trees take me back To blissful moments shared under its shade Their sprawling branches, calm breeze on track A serene retreat, where friends reside As the moon fade,we head to the river's flow With Tie and dye "adire" wrapper wrapped our small trunk Dip clay Calabashes to scoop water's glow Our feet felt cold like fish in the dam Afternoons were for hunting in the bush Traps set for game to rush Rustling leaves,birds singing their songs Friendship and adven...

A CRY FOR PALESTINE'S LIBERTY This injustice infuriates, Apartheid beyond shocking! Genocide devastates, Massacre disheartens. To you, who endorse oppression, Forcing lives into depression, Avoiding opposition, Hailing unjust occupation! You infringe on their rights, Purge homes unjustly. They have the right to resist, For humans yearn to live in peace! Truth will always be clear, To those willing to seek and hear, For victimizing the oppressed, Is never just or fair. You deny responsibilit...

Time is an asset that determines your success

Time is Your Greatest Asset for Success Time is an asset and how you use it determines your success. In fact, your life is a reflection of how you spend your time. Success and productivity are not compatible with time wastage. As Brian Tracy states in his Law of Time Perspective: “The most successful people are those who consider the long-term impact of their daily decisions.” We all have the same 24 hours. It may not always feel like enough, but with proper management, it can be mo...

HIJABIS UNSILENCED: A poem by Hafywrites

HIJABIS UNSILENCED By Hafsah Abdulhakeem Ajoke Her hijab, a crown of dignity, Sets her free with gentle might. A shield from evil, a symbol bright, Guiding her to please the Almighty.

With every step, with every stride, She wears her hijab, her identity pride. A symbol of faith, of dignity and might, Challenging stereotypes, sh...
