Salvation of the Soul

dearpreye:
Do you agree with the author? Can Africa even develop to n appreciable level? I'm scared.

musicwriter:
No, I do not agree with the author on many areas as stated previously.

Yes, Africa will develop and will even over-take the west when we begin learning. Right now, I do not even believe education is happening in Africa.

For education to begin in Africa, we MUST get rid of the brainwashing colonial school curriculum inherited from Britain and France, and replace it with ours. Once this is done, true learning will begin in Africa in our various native African languages. Only then shall we be able to learn, understand and conceptualize science. And only then shall we be able to build our own technologies and industrialize. Build our own cars, fast trains, submarine, airplane, go to the moon. Name it!.

It worked for the Japanese, Koreans and the Russians.

It can work for us. But do we have leaders that can truly think?

VickyRotex:
Patricia and her horror/scary novels.

Have you read "All that remains" ?

I never finished reading that novel. *Ewwwwwww*

There's one I saw lately, "Port Mortuary" by her. Read it? Wanna read it, but the title scares me .

musicwriter:
Unfortunately, no. African leaders cannot think outside the box because they're also victims of the brainwashing education that made them believe we Africans cannot rise above western nations.

CHAPTER ONE
After the storming rainfall
ceased.The sky became clear also,I
was obliged by my father to go
round the village in search of our
missing goats.I was wearing loined
and tattered clothes as my father
did not buy a new one for me.I was
also wearing no shoes on my
foots.That was how I continued
marching the wet ground.I. would
have almost slipped to the ground
had I would have not gripped my
toes to the ground.As I was looking
round and round the village,I was
bit by a viper.At the first time,I took
the case as a joke,but it was then
when the vipr's saliva began to
diffuse into my body I then realised
I was seriously in danger.I threw
my cognitive eyes to comprehend
whether there was some one in
sight,but my hope remained in vain
because none has come for my
rescue.It was as just to say 'A' I
found myself wriggling on my
bed.It was just a terrible nightmare
I had......
I will continue to narrate this story
on and on.Stay alongside with me.

Wroxxane:

Genovese:
'The secret'

dearpreye:
The secret of what?

lyntiffany:
yea same here, have read 3 of his books : The lost symbol,
Angels and demons and
Da Vinci Code
Want to read Inferno and Deception point written by him, heard they are captivating, intriguing and full of suspense just like every other of his work.

dearpreye:
I've seen that book shaaaa!

The thought explained humans are either sanguine, phlegmatic, choleric or melancholy. I'm not sure I can tell where I really belong now.......

Bro, I thought he also said no single person has only one temperament. Could you throw more light on that?

gensteejay:
The novel, The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, is a hell of a storybook. I read it some years back and so much enjoyed reading it! Dan Brown is one of my favorite authors.

dearpreye:
Do you believe the author? I think I do.

moski5:
do share some thoughts from the book

dearpreye:
We've been repeatedly told that readers are leaders. Also, that he who doesn't read has a very little advantage over the one that cannot read. To read is to learn and grow. We won't stay long enough to experience all life has to offer. We need to read to learn from the lessons and experiences of others.

It's very saddening that in this age, despite the overwhelming abundance of information, a lot of us don't really study.

All the information we need to succeed in life has been written. Be it on money, marriage, health, business, family, success itself, religion. Name it. It's been written.

I'm currently reading THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED, By Scott Peck. It's being an awesome read. The author talked on pleasure, suffering, discipline, delayed gratification, child training and religion.

I'll talk briefly on self gratification. It's the ability to forego today's even legitimate pleasure for tomorrow's gain. Without it, wealth, health and joy will elude the individual. No one can truly succeed without this vital ingredient of life. To delay gratification is to prioritise. To delay gratification is to always look at the bigger picture.

The future is hardly far away. It comes pretty quiver than we can imagine. Time hasn't waited for anyone. If we must live a happier tomorrow, we must be mature and brave enough to delay gratification. I'll encourage as many as possible to get a copy of this great book and travel in the mind of the author.

So, let's see which book you're currently reading. Any book. And don't forget to drop a line or two from it. Thanks.

Lalasticlala and Ishilove, please let's do justice to this thread. Readers are leaders.
