WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR ROOTS?

Everyday when I look around I see Africans who are not proud of who they are. They have this perception mainly from the media of the true definition of character and personal image. The beauty magazines we read don't do any better to our emotions they just pull our personal self esteem down. They tell us what is beauty then we start loosing our originality and star following the trends. Nowadays a black women cant go outside the house without putting paint on her skin...Have you ever thought of the damage that paint has on our natural skin? Back in the days an African women was acknowledged for her big body but now the media tells us is it is obesity and they need to loose weight who said being slim is sexy? have you ever thought of the trauma they go through to maintain that body, they have to eat certain food and live acertain lifestyles. On the other hand our African men have adopted the American way they think swearing is language everytime they speak they have the s* word is that how an African men was raised like? Let us stop adapting the Western culture and be Africans.

ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE IF YOU SET YOUR MIND TO IT

See not the small trials and challenges of each hour of the day. See the one purpose in plan to which all are leading to.If when climbing a mountain you keep your focus on each stone that you stepping to and you keep your focus on the toughness of the climbing the hill that makes it difficult for you to reach the pick of the mountain. Thinking about the pain, weathers and steepness of the hill then it becomes difficult to step on to as you ascend, if you see only that then your climbing will be profitless.But if you think of each step as leading to the summit of achievement,from which glory and beauty will be brought out before you,then u won't have any dffculities on your uphill climbing. This is how life is when you busy with reaching your dreams and goals JUST ignore the pain and focus on the pick of the mountain and what you want to reach.
