A pure soul remains a pure soul, and a soul that loveth, loveth from infancy. We're all born to start a life and something new but not all that get to finish it. Many do but few does finish well with a broad smile and not a sigh. Even at point of death,  they smile wide enough because , not only for themselves, for others and the tomorrow's people. It's also only the few who view the span of life past, present and future:  as a twig woven of others of different material but weaves theirs to suit what is woven and what is to be woven. What shall we say then, is it of the desire of men to shape destinies of souls of men. Or to see them unshaped and lives ruined... Always know when it's your call you will not fail

We see the birds fly over the skies ,where sometimes we dream of. In he shadows of trees hey hide, shelter, breed and nurse their young. And to some birds, it is a place of defense, a tower of refuge, a point where they could see all the land, and only a few could have such a view. The wolf dig holes and barrels, nest their young, train  them to be together, to hunt and prey and be preyed on as well. To the wolf togetherness is strength. And we men; we mould, we craft, we build, we farm, we watch and be watched upon. Some times we seem dissatisfied, for our ego is much, we are care taker of creation. The carvers of wood  and hewers of  great stone into caves and monuments, and a race that posses fashioning of weapons, both great and small, both good and evil. We posses many names according to race of kind, according families, according to tribes, according to sects of vicious talents and our know how and to research, companions who tell history and what is behind history. For we are called men because we are descendants of our kind. We also posses beauty and handsomeness in like fashion of fathers and mothers. Our defenses are from deities of great power, weapons, towers and skills. We learn from many; of our kind and sometimes not from our kind. We are the key to the next generation, we carry our life, history, genetic makeup, our sense of being and  how we want our future to be like to the next generation. W e will teach them of our world and what is yet to come. Such as is done by birds and other kind of animals, we must not forget our past. We will remain the  ultimate purpose of creation, objects of worship, men and always men alike.

We fought and we struggled He has struggled with an infection for long He has prayed over an infection for long Including long days of fast and intense prayers He always wonders if the creator ever taught of him If the creator ever taught of releasing him from this infirmity But he never gave up to his faith until his last dream A dream of hope through an intense struggle But one may ask, what kind of dream? What kind of dream will release a man of a great infirmity? In his dream, he saw himself with an angel An angel so hard to describe Maybe he was the angel of healing Maybe he was an angel of war He wandered whom this creature was Because he has never seen a kind like this before His countenance was like that of a warrior He looked like one who was in a hurry He had strong wings to fly And his face was hard to describe How did I know? Because he struggled with him How did I know? Because he fought with him This was a fight of redemption This was a fight to regain his all in all Just as Jacob struggled with the angel until he gained victory And so we fought until he said you can use the ....... water He pursued to ask who are you? Are you the angel Raphael? he said no He asked because he read an angel was in charge of healing Who are you then? Then he said I cannot bid you my name For they know not that I am here Then, tell the angel that I need to meet Him So he took me for a tour A tour that I saw many things like an accident with people screaming A tour, perhaps to visit another mission We landed on his second mission, then he vanished I then woke up from the dream with half smile and of half curiosity Curious because I could not recall the kind of water for my healing Happy because I struggled hard with an angel and gained victory My struggle was not vain Your struggle should not be left unattended to Never give up because healing come in different ways Keep up the fight for you will gain victory one day SO HE SAID, THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUE HEALING. FROM GOD (THE CREATOR) HIMSELF

when the Kwabena Nketia twisted in proverbs when the Seprewa strings plug to tune when the Handel composed to interest was it done for us? when the Crosby played and sang when the Amakye Dede planned to entertain when the Vivaldi sat down to think was it done on purpose? when the Ludovico played to uplift the spirit when the Fire side stories were told to be remembered when the da Vinci painted to last was it done for our generation? yes , I believe so may be the present generation are not informed may be the present generation are not of interest how can we forget our past how can we forget our forefathers how can we forget what we were born with do we still have our cultural traits in mind do we still have our cultural elements to be exhibited do we still have something to be shown to the world if not, let us go back to the old days SANKOFA SANKOFA SANKOFA WE ARE NEVER LATE ON DOING WHAT IS RIGHT

even when it turns out dangerous we will ride on it even when it turns into a jungle road we will still ride on it we are expecting the bumpy roads we are expecting the sharp curves we are expecting the dusty roads this is what will make us good travelers this is what will make us experienced travelers this is our strength to the strong holds this is what we are always fighting for because we saw the northern star shining because we saw the flowers gloom because we saw the dew falling once again we started with many together we reasoned with many together we planned with many together we expected to finish with them together some left us on the way some left us untold and unaware some left us because they had no other chance here we are today here we will tell our stories here we will keep our fortress here we have nothing to hide because we found IT IT is still shining IT is unfading IT is unquenchable OUR SEARCH WAS NEVER A WASTE OF TIME
