What if.......?

I always wonder how long something is when people say it is long.It takes a long time. It will not be long.... Subjectivity is one of the biggest causes of dispute in the world in my opinion.

What if everything was objective, tangible and fixed as well as Calculated. What if we had no opinion in this world but everything was what it is or what it is not. What if our feeling and opinion never existed.

If you could not say "I THINK...." or "in my opinion....". What if everything was as 1 + 1?

The world would have been..... easier? I don't know but that is what I am thinking about right now.

Well if the world was like I just asked.... I wouldn't be thinking neither.

mixedfeelings

Is it just me or it is just annoying to have the feeling that you can do more than you do? I have unfortunately never been unemployed. I worked after my studies in the university as a teaching assistant and some days after school closed, I got a job which i did till i travelled outside Ghana.

Outside Ghana have i been unemployed almost all the time. A little over a year. it is both annoying and sad. Sometimes i wonder if it could the best decision i made. But i am not a mourner so i just have to carry on. Fight on. Believe that i can it.

It is not easy. It is very hard but i kno it will go well in the end.

Back in Business

I decided not to write again but i changed my mind. I want to express my disgust at how young people like myself and others in our beloved country, Ghana are treated. I have said at many different platforms that the institutions in out country do not work. Many young people who live in this same system complain about the same thing but nobody takes notice. Not politicians, not the media. everybody believe it is not so until ......?????

Nobody care what we say as young citizens of Ghana unless we put on party colour and join the older folk to throw dust in the eyes of the citizens. Then they listen! But is that the kind of nation we want to build? One in which a person can comment og give an opinion on issues only when one puts on a particular political party colour? Dr. Aning of Kofi Annan Peace Keeping Training Centre claims the security system is not functioning.

As a security expert is he noticing that today or is it just an opportune time to say it? Which institution in Ghana can he say with confidence is functioning properly apart from the institution of "Bribbery and Corruption". He might get listened to because he is an "expert". That is what we all have to be then. Experts! Then we will get some attention when we speak outside the political platform.

Some of the things we complain about to politicians do not get noticed because we do not have expert attached to our names. Say i repeat myself by talking about filth and my conversation with one former deputy minister of trade whiles he was still in office. He thought i was crazy. But i knew that approach i proposed would help but where did it get? Nowhere! Because i am no expert. I was just an overzealous university undergraduate who loves his country. And that is a sin!

I will have to comeback to this topic some other time. For now i have to go and study to become an expert before YOU will take me serious.
