Sometimes, life does not cooperate with one, and one feels trapped in one's own problem. A solution in itself doesn't bring about a "solution"; it only gives rise to another problem. The paradox is that a solution in itself is another problem. The truth? There are always solutions. So many people give up on their passions and dreams because they tried so hard and nothing came forth. They thought they had a solution, but with a bigger problem. One just has to learn it's a cycle, and the cycle will continue to be until finally we are out of it. everything will go "south" on one , and one can either accept it or get to work. Just keep doing the maths: solve one problem, and the next until eventually, it's done. I started a venture about 20 months back, with high hopes of reasonable outcome. The first few months were not as suitable; the stuff i thought i had was no match for what existed. In the process of time, encountering series of hurdles, ...

The thought that the days of man are but few causes a poignant feeling. Nevertheless, the truth must be emphasised that men are, but food for worms. Moses knew this, and out of a melancholy heart filled with much sorrow and probably the troubles of the wilderness, he made the prayer in chapter 90 of the psalms. He needed rest from troubles, and reward for his labour, knowing that the days of man are passed in wrath and his years spent as a tale that is told. How so late many realise that the days of man are few, and his strenght is soon faded. No one is going to remain a youth, hence the need for proper planning. Moses in his prayer asked to God to teach him to number his days that he may apply his heart unto wisdom. Even though he lived a hundred and twenty years, he described the days of man to be 70years, and 80years by reason of strength. Two things: number and count. A mentor once said: "write down what you want to achieve at the age you want to achieve them, and work...

Ecclesiastes 9:2 KJV All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath. The first part of this verse caught my attention: all things come alike to all men: an event to the righteous, and the same event to the wicked, the clean and unclean, and I'll add the rich and the poor. Everybody has the same measure in proportion of whatever everyone needs to make a footprint in the sand of time. I hear people say they couldn't be who they wished to be because their parents were not wealthy and they couldn't afford what they needed to make a success. Others give excuse of time, and flimsy excuses. The truth is that we may not have it all the same, alike, but we all have it in the same proportion. Where one might have wealth, another can have the brains to...
