Where is the love?

                                                   


What’s wrong with the world mama?
Life is no longer the same
It is like a game where only the victor enjoys
Whilst the poor are filled with shame
Languishing in misery

When I grew up people used to love
Oh! How I long for the good old days
When the old lady next door used to care
When the community used to share
When love used to be love..
When one man’s problem was also my problem 

Why do we hate?
Ask the youth, the doctors, the teachers, the politicians
They will say: “poverty is the reason why”
Has poverty robbed us of love?
Does poverty cause discrimination?

What’s wrong with the world papa?
Where is the love?
Why do we hate?
When the bible teaches us to love

Where is the love when we the youth need it the most?
What has happened to the value of humanity?
What has happened to the fairness of equality?
What has happened to the spirit of fraternity?

I wonder why people have chosen to show their immoral animosity
At a when the world needs love the most

Corruption, prostitution, brutality, immorality, death…..sorrow
This is our daily bread
It is high time we sought God’s divine intervention

Some call it cash money, imali, muler  ,some say its the love of it is the root of all evil whilst others say it makes the world go around.The most interesting thing about money is that some of us cannot leve without it and neither can they live with it for to them its a case of "more money more problems" .Over the years,scholars have argued that: "the greatest source of motivation is money.Well we all need money as a means of exchange and to facilitate trade transactions and a store of value .However ,to a greater extent money has failed to motivate many people for  the greatest motivator is a strong, clear and passionate vision. This surpasses the desire for money or any gain whatsoever!Money cannot buy you a vision but a clear vision can get you money.

Creating Valuable People Relations part 1

Most organizations are evaluated using the value of assets that the organization has.  People are busy valuing their worth using the financial and material possessions that they have. This is an easy way of evaluating the worth of an organization that can be easily ascertained and accepted across board. While money and possessions determine our worth there is one great resource which is the base and foundation of all resources that a lot of people hardly consider if at all they consider it. This foundation and basic resource is the Human Capital/ Resource of an individual or organizations. Many contemporary writers and authorities on leadership and management have grasped this fundamental truth and now prescribe it to organizations and leaders whom they advise. John C Maxwell always say that, “everything rises and falls on leadership.”  I totally subscribe to his assertion. It is a leader’s attitude towards his people that determines the productivity of his people. There are...
