It's truly disheartening how we tend to downplay important matters. We've become so obsessed with social media and this whole citizen journalism thing that many of us are completely oblivious to its existence. We're all in a race to be the first to post and get tagged as the fastest news deliverer. Sure, it has its perks in some cases, but that shouldn't overshadow the importance of lending a helping hand. I was livid when I came across a video making the rounds on social media. I couldn't help but wonder where the conscience of those bystanders had disappeared. I'm almost tempted to call them educated illiterates. How could anyone just stand by and watch for entertainment while two young people were in a physical altercation? The natural response should have been to intervene and separate them, not stand there cheering them on. Just imagine if that little girl had ended up losing her life - the guilt that would haunt the other person for the rest of their days....

Poem by: Raphael Sarfo Oh how dark and mysterious the path of man leads A day as bright as the sun yet so much uncertain where the step of man lands!  Where is my next step?  Into the luck of life or the miseries of it?  The fortunes of life or the agonies thereof?  The creator alone is sure.  Oh how I wish says my innermost man, that the Creator alone guides Dedicated to all Gone Souls

Poem by: YAO BESAH DZANADO The eyes of the masses are fixed in a wondrous gaze  They watched in awe in their minds as their eyes betrayed their thoughts  Their hearts wander within the ignorance of their supposed wisdom  Adventure, mystery, famine, suffering, and poverty: which is truth and which is not? Some running to their door post in the pretense of deprivation creates the impression that their assertion is the truth  You who know the depth of their ignorance and wrong judgments, please be calm and remain calm  Let them dance in the pool of their ignorance for surely they may drown someday  Stay calm and remain calm at least for the sake of the few who know the truth and act differently Be calm and remain calm at least for the sake of the few ignorant ones who seek the truth in sincerity  Be calm and remain calm for the story may not be the same the day after tomorrow  Be calm! Stay calm!

People come together in various aspects of life for a multitude of reasons. Sometimes, the circumstances surrounding these meetings can be a mystery. However, these encounters often blossom into moments of profound connection. One such instance is the bond that is formed between a group of individuals. The memories of our meeting places still linger in my mind, as vivid as the taste of freshly tapped palm wine. I distinctly recall a time when I had to relinquish a cherished position due to the negative comments of those around me. It was a pivotal moment when I was called back to resume my role, as those who had temporarily taken over realized the challenges it entailed. I view this as a divine intervention. Despite being asked to take full control, we became effective partners in our work. I humbly sought their guidance, which provided me with invaluable learning opportunities. Another significant encounter occurred when I felt compelled to seek a unique connection with the Divine. I ...

Poem by: Raphael Sarfo Oh life dear, let me know truly your very nature. I want to know truly, your principles. May I temper not, what triggers your everlasting leave. Yet a flash of thunder-lightning may last longer when you choose to seize existence. So that I don’t take you for granted, Oh life dear. You require so much of a man But do I alone take care of you? When the faults and woes of others don’t appeal your pardon Yes, I want to know truly, how I will pamper you to dwell with me in perpetual harmony, your fullness. Dedicated to all gone souls
