As We Turn 56

Courtesy:thebreakingtimes.com

For reasons I cannot explain, on the eve of my birthdays I'm always sober, no excitement or any of those emotions I believe people experience when their birthdays are approaching. Mine's this sober reflection into the past years, checking how far I have come, the way forward, mistakes made, lessons learnt, etc.

Change is Constant

"Everything changes and nothing remains still"- Heraclitus

I wonder what the Greek philosopher, Heraclitus had in mind when he made the above post which have become famously translated into 'change is the only constant thing in life'.

Aren't We All Guilty?

The first time I was fully made aware of plagiarism/piracy and it's implications was  years ago, 2009, I think, when I shared a video of the song 'Time to Say Goodbye' by Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman on Facebook, a video I got from Youtube which I assumed was already in the public domain and could therefore be shared by anybody.

Let There Be Peace (International Day of Peace)

"Let us all work together to help all human beings achieve dignity and equality; to build a greener planet; and to make sure no one is left behind." — UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon

Helloooo...
I'm still basking in the euphoria of the new addition to my family; my only sister gave birth to her first child, a girl, yesterday morning and I've been so excited. I think I'm even more excited than the new mom, lol.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT: WHO IS THE VICTIM, WHO IS THE CULPRIT?

Hi hi, good morning everyone. How's da weather over there where you are? Cool, I hope. I thought we were having another eclipse of something this morning, with the way the clouds darkened here before the torrential  rainfall. My only wish was that it had rained like this on a Saturday so I'd just go back to bed. Anyway, man must whack, so we all had to leave our houses despite the weather.
