How fickle life can be
The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. Also, we have grown to be taught and know what separates death and life is just a thin line. In this vein, I have since been wondering how fickle life can be. You see someone today and the next day you hear they are gone.

The beauty in waiting
Hurry doesn't solve most things, likewise being in haste doesn't get you where you want to be within your calculated time. It rather makes us forget things that were not meant to be forgotten, make mistakes that are most times unwarranted, It makes us jump into uncalculated decisions.

Things I wish I had done
Often times we all have had this same song played over and over in our heads, "Time lost can not be regained." Maybe it is true maybe it is not. This then leads to the question "What is time?" Does anyone understand what time really is? But really i feel and realize our idea of time is has it's programmed and regulated by our different time counters, talk of the different Seasons, Sundials, Watches, Wall-clocks, and any other time counters. No one can tell what time is, and the truth is because time is timeless, it's eternity, infinity. You can't talk about time without first having an understanding of it.

The binge in me
To do things moderately is to live a healthy and less dramatic life. Really you will agree with me there is definitely no need to be excessive or act excessively. But then, I have for a long time realized that there is always a part of humans that loves to do the opposite regardless of the consequences it may bring. We most times enjoy to do and act excessively and most of the times it isn't warranted, or should i say avoidable.

Freedom
No one enjoys and appreciates freedom than a person who has and is been deprived of it. Freedom is the most loved and highly appreciated moment in the life of a man. Being deprived of freedom can result in a whole lot of things. Humans won't be able to attain their full potential when deprived of freedom, It brings limits to a man's thoughts, It makes vision seem impossible and unattainable. A man that is in bondage or slavering can not see any good things happening to him, And that is not his fault. He is constrained to doing that which he is required to do and to say. his movements are restricted as he can not move beyond the geographical area he's been confined to. He is deprived of seeing the outside world the way every human will see and interact with it. All he does is to see the same environment and buildings around his ecosystem.
