By: Naa Doodua Doodu To all the mothers, who give with all their hearts, Devoting love right from the very start. You’d brave the storms, to see your child thrive, A selfless love, that keeps us all alive. You’re dad, mom, advisor, role model, and guide, A constant presence, always by our side.

Bob Marley wasn’t just a musician; he was a prophet in his way, speaking truths that still hit home today. One of those truths? How society often overlooks the “deputies” in life—the assistants, the backups, the ones who seem to play second fiddle to the “sheriffs.” Think about it.

By: Naa Doodua Doodo The deepest regret a heart may bear, Is yielding to one we hold most dear. A lifetime of pain, a wound so true, A choice that haunts, forever anew. Our choices shape the path we tread, Fear and doubt cloud the thoughts in our heads. Hasty decisions, born of haste, Bring years of sorrow, a life …

By: Don Pax Every morning, I used to wake up with a list of things that weren’t right. The food was too cold, the sun was too bright, my bed was too hard, and my tasks were too many.

For light to be useful darkness must be in existence, for goodness and perfection to be in existence there should be worst moments and imperfections in play.

There once was a man who seemed untouchable, a man who couldn’t even zip his shorts closed but let out bullets nonetheless.
