The Purpose of Patience
So, what's the purpose of building patience abilities? In a word, happiness. Better relationships, more success. Well worth the effort, I'd say. But effort, indeed, it takes.
We
can all work to develop more patience. An important idea here is that
developing patience is just that. Developing a skill. We aren't born
with it. Think of a hungry infant- shrieking with all it's red-faced,
rigid-bodied impatient demand for satisfaction.
After all, we
can't just sit down at a piano and play it without ever learning to play
and practicing, practicing, practicing.
That practicing includes
1)paying attention to when we are not patient, 2) being kind to
ourselves for not being "perfect" already, and 3)changing the automatic
judgmental, critical thoughts and feelings.

300 OLD DISEASE:ORIGIN OF BLACK MAN MENTALITY
The first black man arrived Virginia in 1619,
then the blacks were initially treated as indentured servants. After period of
service, they were free to go work their
own land. But by 1681, laws were passed to legalize slavery. From then on
Africa became the world’s greatest “Manufactures of Slaves”.
So for almost 200 years, Africans have been
wearing the chains of slavery, on the legs, hands and as decorative necklace of
labour.
Thereafter
came the era of independence. By sheer strategy of misdirection, the chains
were removed after much complaint. Please note, the chains were not broken. It
was simply removed from hands, legs and neck and embedded in the brain.
Ever since, the black mind has been struggling to
understand itself. But since the black mind inadvertently was the disease
itself, it has become an almost futile
surgical exercise to free the diseased mind.

HOW TO FIND YOUR SPOT... A Poem.
A PLACE FOR YOU.
The sky is blue
The grass is green
The rock is solid
And water is shapeless.
Each stands in its place.
Takes pride to be a part of earth
And to fulfill nature’s
Quest for purity and originality.

SHAME ON US
In the midst of soo much anger, bitterness, and all out condemnation of the Uniport. 4 which i totally support. It will do us good to remind ourselves, that we were not like this before, something brought us to this level and with all the available signs, it is still going to take us further. Except we brake and reflect and ask ourselves, very deeeeeeep questions. because we have been justifying death, in all forms, Religious crises, political crises, family crises, ethnic crises, campus cultism, and now the taking of inestimable gift of life has now become common..cant you see how easy it has become for us to video and transmit the process of death?
