RACISM

        Racism is a disease that has eaten deep into the American society.I call it a disease becos it's a problem that stems from the mind before being reflected into the physical.Someone needs to think in his mind that one is black hence can be 'dirty or crude' before they can say they hate such people.
       Recently during a white supremacists rally in Charlottesville Virginia,a woman was killed when a car plowed into the crowd protesting against white nationalists.Several people were injured.I looked at the horrific scene and it was a sad thing almost like one from a war torn country.The question arise thus why people would protest the existence of others.
       Growing up when I first heard the term "people of color" i used to think it was white people becos I saw black as black.No big deal.The thought that one is better than the other comes from the idea that one is superior and the other inferior.One can say that in black neighbourhoods of America crime is on the rise but white people get mugshots too and do things blacks can call 'derogatory'.
        White supremacists fight becos they desperately want to cling to their European roots and there is no big deal with this but connecting the nation through love with that culture is a better approach.First we need to address race issue as one where no one has a race and everyone is seen as one.Hate can be unlearned since love is learned,though that is tough.
         The mind is powerful and people need to align their minds towards a positive direction plus show more love.I look into the Rap game in America and marvel at what black people do to it.They made it cool.America needs to stand in unity.Fighting the president is not the solution.Lets start from Republicans and Democrats agreeing more becos remember the goal is America not just a party.When the leaders agree and stage good karma nobody would be bold enough to call themselves white supremacist since not all courage brings good karma.

THE MEDIA IS STILL A GOOD PLACE

           Recently social media has created a fast approach to communication.Writing of letters has become old fashioned so smart phones are the new gig for texting or sending mails.This days on social media information fly around like birds.All you need to do is set up an account then followers find you with ease.The media controls the modern world and innovation makes it captivating daily.Money allows you buy the best of tech and the more expensive the better the quality.Television has gotten sophisticated from slim to ultra with the ability to make it seem you are in a cinema.The radio continues to thrive for grassroot exploit since tv is still a big deal.
           Advertising cuts across all proffession and is a tool in all types of media.This changes expose humans to different acts and sure there are varying reactions.In the twinkle of an eye information can spread round the world which technology has made a global unit.We dont see the people behind the phones,tablets and computers but we sense what they look like through pictures videos and voicing.Anybody can say anything and it is believed.There is the tendency to like retweet or follow a hashtag once it trends,sentimental or makes sense.
           It is true some acts on the media breeds conflicting reactions but most times people tend to pay attention to celebrities.Social media makes people crazy so much that they cant go a day without having a taste of what is happening far and around them.But there is what i call adverse effect of media.We see a rise in fake news and hate speech disguised in ugly banters.Its a reaction we get from exposing ourselves to people we know and dont.
           During the last election in America Hillary Clinton was the focus of fake news and hate speech.The private server she set up and Clinton Foundation accusations exposed her to this.Fake accounts can be set up by anyone and celebrities are sometimes the target.Anyone can be bullied online but there is something comforting in the idea of hating someone popular.Fake information can affect how we see life and it falsifies global accuracy.If you read a fake story about someone you believe in twice,you tend to lose interest in them.
            But the media is still a good place to communicate with the audience.We just need to make it safer and comfortable.Upcoming artists,entrepeneurs and politicians etc can use the media to carry people along.Tech companies like Google and Facebook etc must shut down fake accounts and that of those spreading hate.Its shocking that a medium such as telegram exists even though it can breed terrorism.The media must regain its lost shine and be brought back to reign as a place to be trusted.The truth remains that a world without good media poses great risks.Most people get information from social media and if there is no credibility we are in danger.
             Also we must let our brains think before our fingers.There is more to just typing away.Thinking before accepting and sending information will save you embarrassment regret and sometimes death in a world where terrorism and abduction has become a norm.Also keeping your location undisclosed is advisable.Making progress through the media is one of the best inventions and would never get old we just need to be wise on how we act and react.


DOMESTIC ABUSE

      The victims of abuse are people that are kind of vulnerable.This could be an effect of mental state,age or physical disposition.Girls and women go through abuse of some sort growing up and it reflects in their perception.Some of this are assault and rape.Its true thinking women are weaker than men is out dated in a world where equity is fought for at home and work.     
       We see extremism buying into abuse.Girls are kidnapped and raped by terrorists and forced to have the baby.It makes me sick in 2016 that there are laws that allow rapists legal paternity to their victims child.Women are mostly the target of domestic violence although men can be abused too.
       The force behind domestic abuse is hatred.It comes from a filty perception of life in that the abusive one is faulty and a mirror of what they see as wrong.Usually the subject is a mind that is different from the average.A sincere,meek and sometimes enlightened heart.They usually have what cannot be seen,touched or bought.The stories could be an unending series of badlucks.The goal of abuse is to cut short the progress of the victim.But know that hate is the weapon of the weak and done by people with short sight.Yes beautiful things are conceived by people that are unique and hate is a bandwagon approach.
       There is really no place hate cannot be found and success might be difficult for people going through that.It takes counselling,discipline,faith and the wiill to overcome the trauma of abuse.The victim must understand that life is beautiful and we only need to win at daily challenges.We must reach out to girls and women and men being abused through special programs that can detect abuse and protect them.Not just the NGOs but the Police Departments,Government and special detectives.Its not an easy task but our future lies in the bearers of nations.Only crude soceities disrespect girls and women and anyone can be great if guided.Lets protect our girls and women and give them access to human and woman rights.

IS ABORTION A SIN

 Religion tells us that abortion is a negative act that has a penalty from God.Overtime life has become sophisticated and easy.Technology and advance thinking makes humans civilized so religion does not have a hard grip.The new movement of control is the media which ensures everyone gets informed educated and entertained.An ad on tv can go round the world within minutes.Big money determines how appealing an advert is and people get hooked for sure.A condom ad this days can be a sexy looking girl dancing to beyonce while her boyfriend is waiting for her on the bed.It lures the audience to think having sex is good as long as you wear a condom.

 Sex is an essential aspect of life that ensures couples enjoy companionship and reproduce.But in the world today sex is very casual.There is little thought put into why sex should be done and its consequence.Sexual urge occurs and people would have sex so the idea of contraceptives is natural.The truth is that once people have the thought that sex is casual they get exposed to risks.Not that sex is bad but we all know unprotected sex leads to pregnancy.When pregnancy occurs at a young age or wrong time people opt out for abortion.

 Some countries think its wrong while others think it is normal.The fact remains however that abortion and contraceptives have risks like infection womb damage cancer depression etc.Although statistics would tell you this risks are 1 in a 1000,alot of women know the negative effects that abortion and contraceptives cause now or later in life.Also is STIs which are not detectable on the outside and condoms dont assure 100% protection.

 Telling people to abstain from sex is a 50% chance.The effective thing to do is to teach good sex orientation.A bill should be passed  that at an early age kids should be taught the consequence of sex, prevention and choice of abstinence.At an older age they should be taught how to be faithful in a relationship.Adverse effect of contraceptives and abortion should be taught too.The movement to instill good sex orientation should be general and available everywhere.

 Condoms are valid because some people can choose to be careful.Life is beautiful and part of living is sex but how people see it matters.Its great to have sex when your mind is mature enough to know it is an act that requires two people who share similar values and prepared for its consequence.

SONG WRITING

  The art of songwriting has to do with putting together words that inform stuns rhyme and make sense.Putting words together looks easy till you pick up a pen to write.The words dont just come but are a reflection of the writer's mind.Words are everything that you think about and channelling the thoughts could be a challenge.You need to know how to arrange the lyrics.

  A clear head can give heardstarts hence its essential to go around with a writing tool.Think of a title then begin to form words that relate to it."its the lies you told that changed everything" fits with the title "broken".Suspense and intrigue makes a song stunning.Not giving it away keeps the audience wanting to know more.However the intro must be meaningful.The song should have a body which is the full content of it.It should be talked about all through the song and can be 2 or 3 verses.Also there is the chorus which must be catchy, easy to sing and compact.

 Let your music speak they say.Dont force anything cos sometimes it comes in tit bits.A hit  can be written in minutes and sometimes could take days.You need to know your strength.This means what you flow with in writing.Usually i write about love and sometimes the 'mood' and inspiration makes me write on other things.
 
  Lastly is writer's block.Am that type of writer that can try new things.I can write on topics that is not in my comfort zone.But sometimes nothing comes and even when i do research i tend to write what i see online.This can be very frustrating.So what i do is let go by watching tv and learning new things.Writer's block is not forever.It will come and go unless there is a problem.Play around with words in your mind because your thoughts define what you write and how pleasing it will be.

AMBITION

    Ambition is the driving force in every successful person and is propelled by zeal and passion.A career, skill or intent is usually the focus of ambition.The unseen force of ambition controls how far one goes in life.Everything starts from the mind.Professionalism is not a birth right but consistency, hardwork and unstoppable ambition gives success.Life is a challenge and expectations might be cut short hence the will to do more is fuel for bus to the next destination.

   Dreams are thoughts that are nurtured through ambition then executed into reality.Thoughts like "can i get there" will arise but this aint unusual.Nothing comes easy so the need to hold on to a dream.Zeal gives strength to ambition,a stamina to be consistent that comes from within.On the long run independence and alertness to overcome challenges is attained.It's like a battle that needs to be won regardless of doubts fears and obstacles.
 
Passion is the connection between zeal and ambition.Sometimes passion means simple acts of positive intentions towards goals.Thoughts tend towards a great desire to achieve this goals.Vision becomes an important factor becos the eyes is the lamp of the body.How everything is seen determines the energy towards actualization.Ambition is nothing without the way we think perception is key in everything.

The will drives passion and zeal.Freewill makes impossibilities possible.In the mind everything is an orchestration waiting to be played out.You can do anything and so much more and in the face of limitations the will makes ambition a reality.A winner doesn't quit and there is so much room at the top.Consistency and hardwork coupled with ambition gives success but oppurtunity plays a major role on how fast that happens.


MODERN TECHNOLOGY A NEW WAVE IN LIFE

Technology is undisputably the most important need for man asides from air food and water.Looking back into 108 years america's growth is unimaginable.Landing on the moon nominating a female president voting a black president and even leading a battle against terrorism.Actually all this couldnt be possible without technology a human innovation.Human beings used to depend on their own effort to approach life but how far did that get man.A limited way of lifestyle submerged in stress lack of sophistication and efficiency.But the machines came so did the phones hardware and software technology.
The 2016 presidential election in america was a revolution.Nationals were integrated with so much speed that ordinarily without technology wouldnt be possible.People viewed the campaign live on social media and television.Advertisment revealed more than was intended and also changed hearts and thoughts.Technology is the new craze creating jobs connecting people educating protecting lives and serving as recreation.
Artificial intelligence is the new spike in technology.Robotics simulations and a lust to land man on mars is very imaginable.Drones are used to fight in wars domestic purposes or used as security.Expensive cars like ferrari lamborghini rubicon and private jets makes life very easy for the rich.Tech doesnt have to be affordable as long as you need or want it.Its fast efficient and sometimes stylish.Over the years life has become easier for man.
The truth however is that life consist of both good and bad factors.Technology has its own deficiency.America calls for tighter gun laws but do guns kill people truth is someone has to pull the trigger.The rise of social media has changed the world.Crime terrorism fake news and bullying are just some of the side effects.The new media has turned the world into a global unit.Terrorists make use of drones and warheads and nuclear energy is just another impending danger.It looks chaotic and appealing at once.Can technology lead to a third world war can it end human race.Majority appreciate only the positive and do nothing about the negative.Adverse technology should be researched to ensure that human lives are protected.This will enable that what is intended to heal wouldnt destroy.Technology might have adverse effect but it sure is a necessary evil.
