My thoughts are not clouded.
In fact , I am all cool.
I am just thinking what can I do for my world.
What can I do to my world;to cause a positive change in it.
I wish my world was a place where generations will love to live and dream about everyday
I want to fly, so that generations after me will soar
I want to fly, so that generations after me will soar.
I look at my kid brother Joseph and say to myself , what kind of foundation am I building for my child's child.
Lead my imagination and cause my realism to come to be , Infinite Intelligence.
I want to fly , so that generations after me will soar
People are loosing hope bcos we have no dream to hold on to as a country.
Have we ever asked ourselves where we are going as a country, what is our dream as a country.
This country needs a dream, a dream that will speak to us in our sleep and guide us in our wake.
I want to fly, so that generation after me will soar
What is the dream of Ghana, what is the dream of Africa.
What is our dream as a people?
Maybe if we are able to identify that dream ,we can work in and out of each others dream to make this country's dream come to be.
I want to fly , so that generations after me will soar
It will be all good ,if we all had dreams individually bcos before anything will do well or strife to survive.
It needs something to hold on to ; it needs a dream, so this country needs a dream to survive.
This is the way forward.
I want to fly, so that generations after me will soar
This is the only way we can shape our country into our magnificent desire;by shaping the lives of the individuals in this country with a dream.
Wonder why the USA is doing so well, ask anyone and they will tell you about the American dream.
We dont need the american dream, we need our dream, shaped from our own visions and desires.
We need our dream shaped from our individual dreams and formed into that magnificent obsession, we wish to come to.
We need a dream that will teach our country men to dream better and to achieve greater.
I want to fly , so that generations after me will soar.
We will survive as dreamers, bcos dreamers always see farther and further and cause things to happen in a world far unknown and then make that world their world, their reality.
I want to fly so that generations after me will soar.
It is said that the ancestor of every action is a thought---is a dream.
We must first dream this country before we can build it .
So now the question;
What is the dream of this country?
Its simple but deep, its to you all.

VISION
Have a dream in sight my brothers
For it takes a vision to accomplish anything
I have seen them all gone through it
We want change so bad and yet what efforts are we making to call it to pass
May be when we understand it will take more than punching ourselves in our everyday speeches; telling ourselves we cant.
Maybe when we understand we can..
And what we have to do is to fess up to the realism of our in depth ignorance due to our laziness.
That the only way we can do more is to be more.
So we wake up each day from our beds with a goal to make the most of ourselves
/////
Maybe we need more than just work, to do well
We need to change our perceptions about ourselves
I believe we have knowledge in many areas.
I have met with both very intelligent and dumb if I should use such to define their depth of ignorance with times..
But what its stunning is both know something.
We all know something 'cos if we knew nothing all, then we will cease to exist.
What we dont know at all is us.
How much do you know about yourself, I believe most people have not taken time to study themselves and how they function.
They know how to walk,talk and even how to lift a stone, but they dont know what is they are doing every time they are doing it
We seem to how we do what it is we do but we dont know what is we are doing.
Your brain ..what is the weight of your of brain....9 pounds hmmm
How does it function ....what happens every time you put it to work.
There is more to say.
But there is no way we can know more if we are not willing to learn.
Plato once said when every child is born into this world his mind is wiped
clean as a slate and he inscripts upon it as he wills.
All you will ever know will be from what you know, even your imagination is built on by your knowledge.
Your knowledge determines the extent of your imagination.
Therefore we need to read all we can, we need to know all we can if ever want to accomplish all we want. We need to be more in order to have more.
Its a basic principle of the universe ,like attracts like.
For it takes a vision to accomplish anything
I have seen them all gone through it
We want change so bad and yet what efforts are we making to call it to pass
May be when we understand it will take more than punching ourselves in our everyday speeches; telling ourselves we cant.
Maybe when we understand we can..

Reading
I am here again and these same thoughts keep running through mind .
The thoughts that hit me every time I walk the streets, and see the children who have to hustle to feed themselves.
My heart and my mind barely make sense of why these children are not in school
Not being in school is Ok, because I know a number of very inspiring individuals who never went to school, and a also a number of very inspiring individuals who didn’t gain their utmost knowledge and experience from schools.
There is no space for names in this writing , what I wish to proceed to say is the power of self-education and why it is necessary we employ the youth and every individual alike to read .
There are many stories of how people left the classroom and read their way to fortunes. The many successes people have found out of the classroom sends one message, the people who succeeded went on a journey of self-exploration.
I remember recently something I read from one article and Bill Gates recounts that he is successful today because when he was young he had the opportunity to read a whole lot ,and many other successful people also say the same; the stuffs that really worked for them are the stuffs they took time to learn on their own; explore by themselves.
The self-learning spirit has driven many to fame and fortune, and one reason for this is because there… you are free to learn what you want ;all you want , and if you are ambitious enough you can explore a world that is unknown to the world.
The day I realized the power in self-education, I wish I had taken that course way before now and I wish I had someone to instill that reading spirit into me and that is what I wish to do now for my fellow brothers and sisters.
These lines simmer through my thoughts now;
I wish I knew
That knowledge breathes unlimited power
I wish I knew
That the quest of a lifetime would be to follow every question that popped up in my head
I wish I knew
That sights unseen far away in distant lands could be brought to my swet senses of vision and imagination
I wish I knew
That I could follow my every curious thought, answer every question and discover secrets that are known only to the elite .
I wish I knew
That the extent of imagination could be broadened and that I could read the minds of every great person who ever lived and possess knowledge that went farther than my superficial understanding.
I wish I knew
That all I am going through now and all that I will ever want, people had been through it and still have a voice that shares their experiences; their successes and failures.
I never knew
Books could bring the worlds far and near to a juncture
I never knew
Books could bring the voices of people from distant lands to my hearing
I never knew
There is a whole lot about this world that I couldn’t afford to learn through my own experience in this gasp of life but could learn whole lot of it through books.
I will sit no more, to ponder over wonders I can hardly understand.
I will sit with my mind open to every iota of question that creeps up in my head.
I realized there is a whole lot I need to learn to make my life whole and to understand life itself.
Sometimes I wonder how much do I even know about me, why do I have nails, why do I have five fingers and blah blah blah. There are so many whys about me it will take ages for me to find out all the answers I need and the answers I get to know will lead to more questions which will in turn lead to endless discovering.
But why stay still and not read when I can find out and fill my head with so many answers it will thrill me and the world at large.
I believe there is a ladder that shoots up from within us that enables us to climb higher heights when we read.
All who have had the opportunity to read their way out of their ignorance, I know will share my opinion.
There is a lot we can achieve for ourselves, for this country and the world if only we will pursue knowledge.
Pursuing knowledge is a one street to unraveling our potentials and discovering our in-depth capabilities.
Reading speaks the message readily.
