Who say money is not the answer to almost everything.

Mind you God didn't stop you from acquiring large wealth but condemned abandoning him for money

[b]Mark 10:17-31[/b]New Living Translation (NLT)
Looking at the man, Jesus felt genuine love for him. “There is still one thing you haven’t done,” he told him. “Go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

Why I Think This World Should End – Prince Ea

I still can't remember how I stumbled on that video but since then I have been following him on social media always checking his youtube channel for new video(s).

The guy i'm talking about is Richard Williams, better known by his stage name Prince Ea, is an American rapper and YouTuber, known for discussing topics like politics, sociality, environmentalism and life issues. (Wikipedia)

Born: September 16, 1988 (age 28), St. Louis, Missouri, United States

Education: University of Missouri–St. Louis

In this particular video he talks about the way we live now, what we care about and what we have forgotten.

I don’t want to say too much except, that he says everything that I would want to say on these subjects, but more succinctly and effectively.

‘What is popular is more important than what is right”,

“Kids don’t play tag, they play twerk videos”,

“Technology has given us everything we could ever want
And at the same time stolen everything we really need
Pride is at an all time high, humility, an all time low
Everybody knows everything, everybody’s going somewhere
Ignoring someone, blaming somebody
Not many human beings left anymore, a lot of human doings”

“Our role models today
60 years ago would have been examples of what not to be”

“More people want 15 seconds of fame
Than a lifetime of meaning and purpose”

He mentions all of our problems and gives the solution;

“And the path towards a new beginning starts within you”.

I’ll leave you to read the lyrics or watch the video (4:14 minutes long), whichever you prefer…

Enjoy, reflect and let’s make that change

[b]The world is coming to an end

The air is polluted, the oceans contaminated
The animals are going extinct, the economy’s collapsed
Education is shot, police are corrupt
Intelligence is shunned and ignorance rewarded
The people are depressed and angry
We can’t live with each other and we can’t live with ourselves
So everyone’s medicated
We pass each other on the streets
And if we do speak it’s meaningless robotic communication
More people want 15 seconds of fame
Than a lifetime of meaning and purpose
Because what’s popular is more important than what’s right
Ratings are more important than the truth
Our government builds twice as many prisons than schools
It’s easier to find a Big Mac than an apple
And when you find the apple
It’s been genetically processed and modified
Presidents lie, politicians trick us
Race is still an issue and so is religion
Your God doesn’t exist, my God does and he is All-Loving
If you disagree with me I’ll kill you
Or even worse argue you to death
92% of songs on the radio are about sex
Kids don’t play tag, they play twerk videos
The average person watches 5 hours of television a day
And it’s more violence on the screen than ever before
Technology has given us everything we could ever want
And at the same time stolen everything we really need
Pride is at an all time high, humility, an all time low
Everybody knows everything, everybody’s going somewhere
Ignoring someone, blaming somebody
Not many human beings left anymore, a lot of human doings
Plenty of human lingerings in the past, not many human beings
Money is still the root of all evil
Yet we tell our kids don’t get that degree
The jobs don’t pay enough
Good deeds are only done when there’s a profit margin
Videos of the misfortunes of others go viral
We laugh and share them with our friends to laugh with us
Our role models today
60 years ago would have been examples of what not to be
There are states where people can legally be discriminated against
Because they were born a certain way
Companies invest millions of dollars hiring specialists to make
Little girls feel like they need “make up” to be beautiful
Permanently lowering their self esteem
Because they will never be pretty enough
To meet those impossible standards
Corporations tell us buy, buy, buy, get this, get that
You must keep up, you must fit in
This will make you happy, but it never does for long
So what can we do in the face of all of this madness and chaos?
What is the solution? We can love
Not the love you hear in your favorite song on the radio
I mean real love, true love, boundless love
You can love, love each other
From the moment we wake up to the moment we go to bed
Perform an act of kindness because that is contagious
We can be mindful during every interaction
Planting seeds of goodness
Showing a little more compassion than usual
We can forgive
Because 300 years from now will that grudge you hold against
Your friend, your mother, your father have been worth it?
Instead of trying to change others we can change ourselves
We can change our hearts
We have been sold lies
Brainwashed by our leaders and those we trust
To not recognize our brothers and sisters
And to exhibit anger, hatred and cruelty
But once we truly love we will meet anger with sympathy
Hatred with compassion, cruelty with kindness
Love is the most powerful weapon on the face of the Earth
Robert Kennedy once said that
Few will have the greatness to bend history
But each of us can work to change a small portion of events
And in the total of all those acts
Will be written in the history of a generation
So yes, the world is coming to an end
And the path towards a new beginning starts [size=20pt]within you[/size][/b]

Can We Auto-Correct Humanity? By Prince EA

Did you know that average person spends 4 years of his life looking down at his cellphone
Kind of ironic, ain’t it?
How these touch screens can make us lose touch
But its no wonder in a world filled with iMacs, iPads and iPhones 
So many “I”’s, so many selfies, not enough “us”’s and “we”’s
See, Technology 
Has made us more selfish and separate than ever
Cause while it claims to connect us, connection has gotten no better
And let me must express first
Mr. Zuckerberg, not to be rude but you should re-classify Facebook to what it is: An Anti-Social Network

Cause while we may have big friend lists
So many of us are friendless
All alone
Cause friendship and more broken than the screens on our very phones
We sit at home on our computers measuring self-worth by number of followers and likes
Ignoring those who actually love us
It seems we’d rather write
An angry post than talk to someone who might actually hug us
Am I bugging? You tell me
Cause I asked a friend the other day, “let’s meet up face to face’
And he said “Alright, what time you wanna Skype?”
I responded with OMG, SRS and then a bunch of SMH’s
And realized what about ME?
Do I not have the patience to have conversation without abbreviation?
This is the generation of media over stimulation
Chats have been reduced to snaps
The news is 140 characters
Videos are 6 seconds at high speed
And you wonder why ADD is on the rise faster than 4G LTE
But, get a load of this
Studies show the attention span of the average adult today
Is one second lower than that of a gold fish

So if, you’re one of the few people or aquatic animal that have yet to click off or stop reading this, Congratulations
Let me finish by saying you do have a choice, Yes
But this one my friend we cannot Auto-Correct. We must do it ourselves
Take control or be controlled, make a decision
Me?
No longer do I want to spoil a precious moment by recording it with a phone
I’m just gonna keep them
I don’t wanna take a picture of all my meals anymore - I’m just gonna eat them
I don’t want the new app, the new software or the new update
And if I wanna post an old photo, who says I have to wait until Thursday
I’m so tired of performing in the PAGEANTRY OF VANITY
And conforming to this ACCEPTED FORM OF DIGITAL INSANITY
Call me CRAZY but I imagine a word where we smile when we have low batteries
Cause that will mean well be one bar closer to HUMANITY

A friend went to apply for a drivers license on Tuesday and he came back to narrate his shocking findings. He said he was told the process has recently changed.. That he has to register with a certified driving school and get training for 26days, after which he will be sent a certificate from Abuja to print out and then he can come back with it to apply for a driver license.

My friend and I are surprised at this. So I was wondering if any of you guys already know this or is someone speaking Latin?

That's the norm, that means your friend was using fake driver license and he's not ready to settle boys. but for renewal driving school certificate is not required. to be sure if the expired license is fake or original, he should check on the website below: https://www.nigeriadriverslicence.org/

The official rate is N6,250, if he doesn't want the issue of waiting for 26days all he need to do is pay additional 6k-8k.

Members of the House of Representatives yesterday launched an investigation into the alleged secret recruitment of 909 staff by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
The House’s investigation is to be jointly undertaken by the committees on federal character and that of banking and currency to ascertain compliance to due process.
Daily Trust had on Wednesday reported that the CBN had recruited 909 staff within two years without advertising the vacancies.
Following this, Rep Aliyu Sani Madaki (APC, Kano), said the process was alleged to have favoured only the top officials in government and other relations of the elite, with differing regional representation. He recalled that when Nigerians got wind of the exercise the apex bank denied it.

This is the social media era and it has bleeped up our reasoning, we all want to be RICH and FAMOUS. Nobody cares about what's RIGHT or WRONG. it just about MONEY.

In my own understanding....

That is in the Old Testament in the days of Elijah, Moses, Aaron etc...

The same bible let me to know that in

1 Corinthians 11:14
Does not nature itself teach you that if a man wears long hair it is a disgrace for him,....


Ezekiel also wore a beard, as you can see in this passage where God has him to shave part of his hair and beard, as a symbolic gesture showing the shame that would soon come upon Jerusalem. Shaving the head or beard of a man in these times would have caused severe humiliation, and God used this illustration by his prophet Ezekiel to reflect the impending shame that Jerusalem would soon feel by the hands of their enemies (the Babylonians):

“Now, son of man, take a sharp sword and use it as a barber’s razor to shave your head and your beard. Then take a set of scales and divide up the hair. (Ezekiel 5:1)"

if we don't accept the old testament because of trimming of beard then wny do we pay tithes?

Hello everyone! I didn't want to bring this up but I can't just imagine how this question could make her so annoyed. Before I say the question, let me take you down the memory lane.
I started dating this girl for two months(I don't know if we're still dating, I'll tell you the reason why I say so), everything has been going on smoothly not until recently when we started asking each other questions. She has asked me so many questions, some of the questions are as follow:

My Babe: Have you dated before?

Me : Of course!

My Babe: Why did u break up?

Me: We didn't get along with each other, so we decided to call it quit.

My Babe: Oh I see....

She has asked me series of questions but I never asked her any.
One day precisely 3days ago, I decided to ask her this simple question that shouldn't take a minute to answer!
Have you been pregnant before? She paused and looked straight into my eyes and said What sort of question is that? What do l take her for? Am I saying she had done abortions before? She hissed, stood and left, since 2days now we've not called, sent text to each other.
Does the question sound absurd? why did she take it so personal? I have decided not to apologize because I don't think I have done wrong, that's why I said earlier that I don't know if we're still dating!

the girl don abort before and no be one time sef

iteleaye:
Toyin u fuq up, you suppose yab am pass that one... Make i follow the girl sef make me sef dey troll her timeline...

i don go there go yab Toyin untop bleaching.

I couldn't vote for Jonathan to continue cos I detested what my country was turning into under his administration so I never voted..
...
anytime I state this fact the first question I get is... "why didn't U vote for APC?"
...
I voted for APC in the Lagos Governorship election but didn't in the presidential elections not because I disliked their Ideology or mantra ( I craved for 'change') but because I couldn't convince myself (for d sake of my present and future family) to vote for Buhari because..
..
1...Buhari was a former President, former minister of petroleum and so many other top offices he held back then and yet he still tags himself as 'poor', borrowing money then to buy nomination forms. I'm not saying he should have embezzled our money but...for God's sake, it takes wisdom, vision and creativity to be a rich and successful man. Buhari couldn't create an empire with the "little" salary he made those days then I strongly don't believe he can change d fortunes of Nigeria.
it was shameful during asset declaration when I saw the wealth our VP has amassed for himself and his family, comparing it with that provided by our president who is meant to lead us out of brokeness.
..
2...Buhari has been contesting for presidency since 2003 and all those while as an aspirant, he never influenced katsina, Nigeria or Africa In any positive way, (he has no known charity foundation in his name), the only time one hears of Buhari then is when he makes Violence Inciting comments that leads to loss of lives especially in the north....
....
please fellow Nigerians, don't expect much from our president, he doesn't really have much to offer just pray for God to give him WISDOM and POWER not to lead us astray...
...Remember Nigeria is our country.
