Inspiration & Purpose


Where does your inspiration come from?? In the Bible, there is an extract from the book by King David, the Psalms of David:
Psalms 121:1 (KJV)
“I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help”
So David prayed to the Lord and that did worked magically for him, now, what about you?? Where do you draw your inspiration?? Where does your inner help come from?? And we all know David lived to please God, that was his purpose in life, ever since he was a little boy looking after sheep, so it would make sense for him to look at the hills, BUT what is your purpose??

When we are young, our life inspirations are mandatory. You do your homework because you know your teacher will beat you up tomorrow at school, you clean your house because you know your mother will beat you up when she gets home and the kitchen is still filthy (Yes, there is a of beating up in Africa). But do you see what I mean, all these are push factors, and they work to a certain point in your life trust me, there comes a time when life is like:
“Ok, so what do YOU want now? Where do YOU want to go?”
Most people avoid this question and they end up with mediocre lives, I know how that is, it’s miserable... When will you die living just to conform to people’s expectations and peer pressure?? I think even life punishes on purpose just by letting you live longer, so you can watch people living their dreams while you just get through life… You shouldn’t get through life, you should live it…

Oh and those who decide to throw their lives at alcohol and scream YOLO every weekend, those who decide that their life is all about having fun, ag shame, you also haven’t found it yet, you haven’t found your purpose, all you have done is just found a way to escape your pain for a couple of days. Yes, a mediocre life is painful… I have seen it in people eyes, I even saw someone cry about it at one stage… it’s tough…

So… Where does your help cometh from?? Ok let me not throw stones while I living in a glass house.

Let’s start with me…

As I have mentioned above, same with me, ever since I was born I have been having push factors, and I have jumped all the hoops placed before me. Now that I am a young adult, the pushes are no longer there, it is only now that I have discovered that I actually have no pulls at all in my life, there is nothing reminding me that I have to go on, I have to keep walking, I wouldn’t blame you if you called me a “headless chicken”…

Now it’s your turn… what is your inspiration in life, what pushes you?? Or even better, what is it that PULLS you to it? What is it that you LOVE? What makes you happy? What is it that you do the whole day and never get tired of it?? What is it that you dream about and you can’t wait for the sun to come out so you can go back to it? Heck, sometime you do it the whole night… What keeps you going when thick is thin, when the health is sickness…

As a person you need to answer such questions to YOURSELF and have a purpose, in movies I believe they call it a “passion” or you will end up living the people’s version of you.

If you’re still young you won’t know what the heck am talking about, but one day it will hit you, and you will be like ”damn, I need to be ME” I hope you take immediate action…

Laying on my back on the soft block paving of the Apartment Building, Looking at the young evening sky with dawn throwing its last kicks... A gas Lighter in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Destruction and Potential, Only kept apart by my fat arms and hairy chest. A lady walks by, Doesn't finish walking by. Stops, And comments how cute it is that i am studying the night skies, " Stars are full of wonder, they are Angels watching us " She said. " Yeah, they are " I replied. Then the lady finished walking by. Laying there, Laying on my back on the soft block paving of the Apartment Building, Looking at the young evening sky with dawn throwing its last kicks and showing signs of giving up and accepting its fate, it's over... Laying there, Looking at the top floor of our five storey building, I was wondering whether a jump would kill or cripple me. The distance didn't seem long enough, So i put all my chips on "cripple" and postpone

Dear Youth ... During my high school years, in my physical sciences class, I learn about " Fiber Optics ", oh what a beautiful thing they are. Below is the technical definition of this type of technology: " A  fiber optic  cable consists of a bundle of glass threads, each of which is capable of transmitting messages modulated onto light waves.  Fiber optics  has several advantages over traditional metal communications lines:  Fiber optic  cables have a much greater bandwidth than metal cables."  [ www.webopedia.com/TERM/F/ fiber _ optics .html] Key Notes: 1. " transmitting messages " This is the aim of this Blog, to transmit messages, to transfer knowledge back and forth, and to support one another. There will be a variety of topics, Academics, R eligion, Politics, Philosophies, Relati onship problems, Family Problems (Not personal, but how to deal with general family problems), sport, you name it, if you can think of it, it will be here. 2

You're a Magician

The Magic is in your Heart,  You choose how you want it to manifest in your Life. In despair and fear, Some of us let it die and rot inside, then we start hating existence itself. Dearing the Devil to try his best. Fuck, i don't know how to write this, too many thoughts in my head. Let me take a swing, if i miss, i miss... A long time ago,  i read a theory somewhere that states: When the Bible says: Gen: 2:7 "...And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being..." What happened on that day, is that God shared some of his 'powers with us'. At the time i never paid much attention to it. Laughed it off. Until recently when i read 'The Lost Symbol' by Mr Dan Brown. In the book biblical scriptures were quoted: Psalms 82:6 "...I said, You are gods..." John 10:34 "...Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, “You are gods”...&qu
