FELA

Pretty lady, I dey knock kò-kò-kò for your door.

I no go nowhere until you gree be my òdò.

Only you go be my ábèná.

I no go ever follow another.

I no go ever again dey look other shimá,

Hábá! for when I get you as my òhémá.

We go do nyángá; we no send Uche face.

If dem fi say dem fit put asunder, thunder fire them craze.

Rihanna,

Shébi you go chop my banana?

Ábi you no go gimme banku?

Na you be the legwork to my zanku.

It's amazing how your breathing immediately switches from automatic effort to conscious effort, just the moment I bring it to your notice; just right about now. 

…Always remember that you're breathing. Be thankful for this mere, but all-important task you do fulfill. Remember that you are still here; whatever this event called life is. Be thankful that you're here still. Remember the dreams of your heart, and be thankful that you have them. Remember the happiness that you've found in your lifetime, and be thankful that you feel them. 

Remember the journey so far, and be thankful for how you've overcome. For if we are to count our blessings and name them one by one, most of us do forget the monumental one that we still breathe. Be thankful that your breathe is not heavy to carry; that it is so light you forget about it. Be thankful that you want to be thankful. 

For gratitude, even for the littlest things, is our first investment for more blessings. Make gratitude your attitude towards life. Always wear your smile.

Women are the backbone of our Afrikan society. They carry us all in their wombs for months, on their backs for years, and in their hearts for a lifetime. If we are to develop our Afrikan society, we must empower Afrikan women. Be like ; Be a Wise Woman Winning. Connect to our World Wide Web of Wise Women Winning (WWW). Visit: www.lifesolutions.network
