WE ARE THE CHANGE
Change is a state of the mind
Change begins when you are ready,
Change begins when we are set,
To rid our minds off the old ways and habits,
When we are ready and willing to learn from our mistakes
And face the consequences of our past misdeeds.
When we learn from the past
And chart a course for the future


Change is not when we remain docile,
And expect things or events to unfold.
Change is not when play the blame game
Change is not when we do the same thing,
And expect a different result
Change is not when we cry
When we havehave not  tried
Change is not a mere rhetoric,
Change is an action
Change is not when we spend
While we have not earned
Change is not when we sleep
And expect a leap



Change comes with pains and toils
Change comes with challenging and high demands
For there is no gain without pain
Change is sacrificing for a common good
Change comes with the right
And positive mental attitude
Change is not far away
Change is right in front of You,
You have but a step between You and change.
Change begins with You
Each step you take
Sets You on the path of change
Until You are right,
Your world will remain wrong
Until You work on Yourself,
You will never see change.


Change is possible
Only when You deem it so
Remember!!!!
Your world will never change,
Your society will never change
Your friends will never change
Until You change.
Change is an action
Change is an attitude
Change is learning
Change is the adoption of a new approach to life.
Change begins with a drastic revolution.
Change is a mental state of mind
Change is a resolve to experience something new
Change begins with You
Change is a deviation from the normal and conventional way of doing things.
You are the change you have been waiting for


Happy new month, welcome to a September to remember.

Good evening friends,
Read this wonderful piece from one of Bowen's talented writer, who also happens to be an Entrepreneur and an ALUMNI of the Department of History and International Relations, Bowen University.
Read and learn alot.


  THE WILD ONES
                   We are Royalty
We are the kings that don’t have a crown boldly seated
 on the top of our heads, but we have a heart that is wild
and brave enough to rule over our dispriviledges,
we have made the world our palace.
And have built our throne untop  our misfortunes.
     
We possess the aura of kingship,
We breathe the air of supreme divination ,
We may not wear crowns, but our permanent rule is guaranteed,
We are free spirited,  we either find a way or we make our way

We may not be  bounded by Royal ethics , laws and doctrines,
But our pride is rested in our morals, and the ethics of right and wrong
This our law, we carry our heads high, and gracefully fight for our own
Chambers in this large palace, we dance to our tunes,  as we are pleased.

We are the kings that don’t have staffs to accompany us wherever we go,
Neither do we have lasting beads worn across our wrists and neck
We wear our pride and our shamelessness helps to maneuver
 and breakthrough the walls of hunger.

Only the wild ones will survive,
 our teeth are sharp enough to supply our needs accordingly,
and our hands are  strong enough to till and toil to ensure our daily survival,
regardless the peril in the woods that seeks to invade our kingdom.

We are royalty, we will only bow to whoever we choose to,
The Golden fish has no hiding place,
Therefore, we know that someday, our crown will be visible to the world
Because we are Royalty.

Read this mind blowing wriite up from an inspired soul.
I wasn’t born like this, shackles and scars as adornment. No i was born as You were. Tears of joy amid sweats. A strong mother held me close to Her bosom, while a proud father stared at me in awe. I was born to live just as You do. To rule and reign just like You do. Why should i pay for the sins of selfish and wicked capitalists in time past, who in their greedy myopic and twisted minds turned the future of an entire race around by making the Predecessors into slaves. Dragged across seas, they germinated a single seed of this devilish idea into a global strong hold of racial injustice and societal stereotype.
Today the shackles and chains no longer hang around my neck, but the mental slavery persists. You see my hair as been unruly and dirty, while you see my skin as inferior and second class. And yet You blame my aggression and condemn my insolence.
Sorry for not being sorry, but it is either fight or be oppressed.
Till my voice is heard in your corridors and chambers, till my skin regains its glory in your sight, i will not stop, i will not relent, I will not rest till the mental shackles are lifted, and my race reigns.
