You've read my diary. You know I feel ya girl.

I've lost so much of my diary. I keep thinking of new things I wish I still had. I remember the gist of what I wrote, but I can never quite repeat what I once typed. The emotion is gone and I can't get the words back without it. cry

Poems For ReviewRe: Random Ramblings From The Mind Of Tex by texanomaly(op): 8:35am On Jul 25, 2014
I still dance in the rain
by Tex


I kept your secret. How could I not,
When there was so much to be lost.
How could I betray,
When so much depends on me,
No matter the cost.

The years they are long
Since the song that in the end
Made me strong.
Was there ever a thought
From you at what my silence bought?

Through the whole betrayal tour
Did you ever see
How much it took to leave your secret be?
Will the protected ones eventually
Know of your blow, or will they never see?

The sea never gives up her dead.
An ocean of things never said,
But He who sees…knows your deeds,
And those evil seeds
You spread.

Even in death your secret I will keep,
For there are those who just can’t believe
Someone such as you could ever deceive.
Beyond the vail, you did sail
To the place we all must reap.

I remain.
Despite the pain of
The promise you broke,
And the innocence you took…
I still dance in the rain.

What "wonderful ideas" do you have?
TravelRe: 20+ Nations Issue Travel Warnings Against Nigeria by texanomaly(op):
donnypool: All we need are investors, any other persons should sit their butt back in their country. 170 million nor be beans







anyways op if you had used that your time to think about something positive to do in other to uplift this country, i swear you would have came up with wonderful ideas. but no, you must search for the negative news just to make fp. shameless

And both seun and his mod rats, you sir's are worthless like boko haram
People like you...who ignore the issues and look for perfume and roses instead of facing the issues head-on are why Nigeria is in this mess. I made this thread in hopes of waking people like you up, but as usual you hide your head in the sand and pretend everything is peachy. As for the mods...I hope they were thinking the same.


Edited:
@ the bolded

How many investors will continue to invest when BH decides to take their fight beyond the North. Not that their reign of terror in the north is not enough. Do you imagine they are not heading for the high Christian populations next?
TravelRe: 20+ Nations Issue Travel Warnings Against Nigeria by texanomaly(op): 9:39pm On Jul 23, 2014
matrixme: I don't think the OP has the best interests of the country at heart, for going around the internet, searching for which country is warning her citizens to stay away from Nigeria. I am sorry to say, but that effort is such a waste of efforts, when you can rather read more interesting and positive news about the nation like the recent revaluation of the poverty standard, the fact that 30 car companies will soon start operation in Nigeria, more foreign investments and attention on the Nigerian soil among others. Let's think and believe positive about this nation for once. There is no perfect nation on earth, and we must do away with our differing beliefs in polity and unsportmanlike conduct.
EDIT: afkinsider.com/53705/10-most-polluted-african-cities/11/
I used to think Lagos is worst off interms of pollution till I read this article.
fortune.com/2014/06/12/lagos-nigeria-big-apple/
here is a Fortune Magazine article expounding the possibilities of Lagos. I think there are more positive news on the internet on Nigeria.
Did you even read the Fortune Magazine article?

"Congested roads and high density hardly match the world’s vision of Africa as a place of mud-hut villages and sweeping landscapes. But increasingly this will be the real Africa. Within 20 years most Africans will live in urban areas. By 2050, Africa’s city dwellers will more than triple, from about 400 million to 1.2 billion–one of the fastest urbanizations in human history, according to a report earlier this year by the UN-Habitat. Managing that growth is a challenge the likes of which the continent has never seen–and yet Lagos offers a laboratory for Africa’s future. At stake is whether its exploding growth will widen Nigeria’s huge income gulf–about 60% of Nigerians live on less than $1.25 a day–or create more equitable ways of living. (What’s more, pockets of violent insurgency, like the Boko Haram terrorism base in the northeast that has gripped the world in recent months, are a stark reminder that Nigeria bears the scars of its conflict-ridden past.) While Lagos’s rich are getting richer, the wealth gap remains stark. In general Africa’s booming cities will hardly end poverty. The UN projects that most of Africa’s new city dwellers will probably wind up living in slums and warns, “The ability of African cities to cope with these numbers is questionable.”

ikp4succes: Nigeria army are not motivated to fight boko haram. Their oga's are corrupt and somitimes hole their salary so they dont care sometimes to fight.
I keep hearing all these symptoms of a corrupt government. Perhaps it's time to do something about the problem.

Instead of putting band-aides on bleeding arteries, put a tourniquet on and stop the hemorrhaging. Even if you lose the leg, The patient can still live.

"Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world."

Idrismusty97: They have issued travel warnings against Israel too. It's not a new thing. Israel own is even worst, Some international airlines have cancels flights to and from Israel. Nigeria can issue their own travel warning to certain countries too if they like. That wouldn't stop real business men and women from coming to this country. Money conquers all! smiley
So you think it's not a big deal because they've also issued a warning against Israel? Seriously?

So you are fine with Nigeria being considered a war zone like Israel and Gaza, as long as it doesn't affect your finances? undecided

“All the four UN statements showed a deep sense of international outrage but also of frustration at the seemingly helplessness of the Nigerian government to effectively control the situation. In fact, some of the statements noted that international laws are being broken with impunity in Nigeria” http://www.theguardianmobile.com/readNewsItem1.php?nid=25278

Basically people are afraid to visit Nigeria because it’s government can’t be trusted to protect its own people, much less worry about foreigners. It’s too bad. Nigeria could be so much more than what people see on the news. What can be done?
