Indeed how fast time flies. I still remember the celebrations that greeted the year 2000 at my axis in Lagos. Little did I know it will be so quick to arrive in 2015.

All the same I'm grateful to God for the gift of life and health. Back then I was a teenager but now I have a few dependents. I'm still grateful to God for all I've achieved over these last year's starting from 2000.

No one alive TODAY may be here in the next 200 years. Our grandparents have died. Some of us have lost parents too. That simply means we too will die someday; we only ask God to give us long life, prosperity and health. We only ask Him to help us fulfil our mandate for being here at this time in history.

The nostalgia of yesterday, the burden/enjoyment of today and the hope of tomorrow. This thread is a quick reminder of the brevity of life, the fleeting time, a call to gratitude and a reawakening impulse of our need to pursue that which will bring about the betterment of society at large.

Knowing fully well that we all shall someday pass away, let's endeavour to acquire values that will outlive us; let's endeavour to be our very best, let's pay little attention to the naysayers, let's seek out our purpose, and persistently go after its fulfilment. The grave is cold and lonely; let's enjoy all human relations while life lasts!

All those who were here in 1815 have deteriorated into dusts and bones. Let's live with that in mind.

After all is said and done, the world will only remember us for what we've done for the progress of the human race. The world will only recall our memories for the smiles we brought to others, the changes we sponsored, the philosophy we held dear to us, the values we enshrined in our kids and environment. No one will recall our certificates, money or material possession.

My greatest fear is leaving this planet without making a mark. It's my deepest desire to return to dust having fulfilled my purpose. I fear more than I fear demons. I fear it more than I fear poverty and stolen wealth. I fear it more than I fear death itself.

God bless you, OP! My passion for humankind has been revitalised once again. All of a sudden certain things that aren't supposed to be mentioned with me are falling away; a new, deep love for humanity seems to envelope my being, and I feel genuine forgiveness for all those who have offended me; and feel same for those whom I've caused so much pains.

This really made me think. God in his infinite wisdom will continue to enrich you IJN.

27. These two actors made our childhood days,

1. Sylvester Stallone(Rambo).

* First Blood was released in 1982.

* First Blood Part II was released in 1985.

2. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

* Released Terminator 1 in 1984.

* Released Commando in 1985.

Because of Rambo, i tore my red shirt. I will tie a piece around my head, have a long stick at my back(rifle), with my friends we were jumping around the streets and bushes acting Rambo.

They gave us sweet memories but they are old men now. "Rambo is 69 and Arnold is 68".

God bless them, Amen.
