Eu Cred...

Ca nu trebuie sa ne schimbam prietenii,
Daca intelegem ca prietenii se schimba.

Eu Cred...
Ca indiferent cat de bun este un prieten,

El tot te va rani, din cand in cand,

Iar tu trebuie sa-l ierti pentru asta.  

 

Eu Cred...

Ca o adevarata prietenie continua sa creasca,

Chiar si la distantele cele mai mari.

Eu Cred...

Ca imi ia foarte mult timp

Sa devin persoana care as vrea sa fiu.
 

Eu Cred...
Ca poti merge in continuare,
Mult timp, dupa ce ai crezut ca nu mai poti.

Eu Cred...

Indiferent de ceea ce simtim.

Ca suntem responsabili de ceea ce facem,  

Eu Cred...

Ca prietenul meu si cu mine

Putem face orice sau nimic

Si totusi sa ne distram de minune.
 

Eu Cred...

Ca uneori, oamenii de la care te asteptai sa te loveasca,

Atunci cand ai cazut,

Vor fi aceia care te vor ajuta sa te ridici.

 

Eu Cred...

Ca maturitatea are mai mult de aface

Cu genurile de experiente pe care le-ai incercat,

Decat cu cate aniversari ai sarbatorit.
 

Eu Cred...

Ca nu intotdeauna este suficient

Sa fii iertat de ceilalti.
Cateodata trebuie sa inveti sa te ierti pe tine insuti.
 

Eu Cred...
 Ca trecutul nostru si circumstantele

Poate ca au influentat cine suntem acum,

Dar numai noi purtam raspunderea pentru cine vom deveni.

 

Eu Cred...

Ca si atunci cand crezi ca nu mai ai nimic de dat,

Cand un prieten te cheama in ajutor,

Vei gasi in tine forta sa-l sustii.

Eu Cred...

Ca diplomele atarnate pe perete

Nu te transforma automat intr-o fiinta umana decenta.

Eu Cred...

Ca ar trebui sa trimiti gandurile astea
 La toti oamenii in care crezi, eu tocmai am facut-o.

Oamenii cei mai fericiti nu au parte

De lucrurile cele mai bune

Dar pot obtine totul din cele pe care le au 

Suntem in saptamana ingerilor. Cu mult drag si multa iubire...! 
Îngrijorarea priveşte în jur, Părerea de rău priveşte înapoi, Credinţa priveşte în sus. Acest înger a fost trimis să te protejeze... 

 

Nigerians New Dawn

The first time ever we had what is called the fair election, where the election was conducted in orderly manner. Less violence from party supporters of different parties in Nigeria. INEC should be comended for condcting the fairest election in the Nigerian history since independnce.
Nigerians should be praised for showing discipline and understanding in the manner they conducted themselves throughout this election so far. With the hope that we 've learnt a lession on this election. The future elections should be conducted in this manner if not better. Elections must be free and fair without violence of any kind.
Nothing more and nothing less.

Presidential Election.

It is a day of joy, let us all thank God almighty for the peaceful Presidential election and also pray that Gubernatorial and state assembly election will be done in a peaceful manner. Congratulations to the President elect, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Azikwe Jonathan. Now is the time for him to continue his Nigeria transformation into the right part and construction of a new Nigeria where elections will be transparent, free and fair. Build a new Nigeria, where security of the citizens matters, cities and towns development will be high on the agenda, creation of jobs will be number one in list, health of the citizens will be taken very serious by providing all the necessary amenities for the health care system. Good roads and houses for Nigerians.

IJAW NATIONAL CONGRESS (INC) EUROPE CONFRENCE OF ETHNIC NATIONALITIES OF NIGERIA IN THE UNITED KINGDOM THEME:NIGERIA@50 –VISION OF A BETTER NATION VENUE: REGENT PARK HOLIDAY INN DATE:5/02/2011 TOPIC: HOW TO BUILD A GREAT NIGERIA Presented By Sir Musa Tel: 447943136473 . Every nation goes through historical cycle.There was a time the Greek were the superpower. At another time, it was the Romans. At another time the British. Now it is the Americans. I know without doubt that very soon, it’s going to be the Nigerians. Every nation goes through challenges. Many nations have been through wars. Nigeria is not an exception. We have been through our own war and yet fate has kept us together as a nation. As Nigerians, we have a shared history. We have intertwined culture. Indeed we have a shared heritage. We have shared values.We used to be under the same colonial master our host; the British.Today we have a shared vision i.e. to build a great nation of great people. Every nation has the good and the bad citizen. Not all Americans take drugs. Nigeria is not a bad egg. No. Not at all. Nigeria is not a bad egg simply because we have few bad eggs. There are Nigerians excelling in their various fields here in Britain. As most of us are aware, there are many Nigerians here who are making positive contribution to the development of the United Kingdom. I’m proud to be a Nigerian. I never wish that I had come from any other country. I love the spirit of the Nigerians. Nigerians have brain and muscle. There is no nation you cannot find them. You could identify them with the way they talk, the way they walk. Of course, when you hear them talk, they talk differently. When you see them in the street either here in London or in New York, they walk differently. They are loud, proud, confident and very daring. You may not like them, but you cannot ignore them. They talk as if they own the whole world; even if they don’t have one pence in their pocket. I like the spirit of the Nigerians! Wherever we go, we go with our dance, our costumes, and our food. I like the spirit of the Nigerians. Nigerians are creative people. They are very imaginative. In soap opera, movies, our creativity shines through. Before I end this my short presentation, let me quickly mention three things which I think we need to look at if we want to build a great nation. 1. We need a visionary leader who will mobilize all citizens to pursue a national vision. I will use this opportunity to commend our president Dr Jonathan Ebele Good luck for his inspiration on the face book which I have been reading all the time. I love his initiative for the reading project and his support for the build-up Nigeria projects. Indeed, we all must build up Nigeria by thinking, saying and acting good toward Nigeria. This is because Nigeria is the sum total of the thoughts and actions of all Nigerians. We need a visionary leader who have initiative and can move our people to accomplish a shared vision. 2. We must do away with sectional and tribal differences. Not again, Nigeria has no place for tribal leaders. We must build a nation where every citizen has equal right to obtain and attain to any statute or office. As a people we must seek to challenge our obstacles and find a way to overcome them. 3. To be a great nation, we need a leader who can secure the nation and its citizen. We need a national leader who can protect the venerable especially our children and women. We need a leader who will provide the basic amenities like good road, electricity, regular water supply and good transportation system as we can see here in Britain. We must live together as one nation, one people under God. We must rededicate ourselves to the patriotic ideas that our forefathers fought for to gain independence. We must develop the creative potentials in us and use them positively. Thank you. God bless you. God bless Nigeria.

MINDFUL THOUGHT

READ THIS VERY SLOWLY.... IT'S PRETTY PROFOUND.
Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it, don't have it on their schedule, didn't know it was coming or are too rigid to depart from their routine.
I got to thinking one day about all those people on the Titanic who passed up dessert at dinner that fateful night in an effort to cut back. From then on, I've tried to be a little more flexible. 

How many women out there will eat at home because their husband didn't suggest going out to dinner until after something had been thawed? Does the word 'refrigeration' mean nothing to you?

How often have your kids dropped in to talk and sat in silence while you watched 'Jeopardy' on television? 

I cannot count the times I called my sister and said , 'How about going to lunch in a half hour?' She would gas up and stammer, 'I can't. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known yesterday, I had a late breakfast, It looks like rain' And my personal favorite: 'It's Monday.' She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together.

Because Canadians cram so much into their lives, we tend to schedule our headaches.. We live on a sparse diet of promises we make to ourselves when all the conditions are perfect! 

We'll go back and visit the grandparents when we get Steve toilet-trained. We'll entertain when we replace the living-room carpet. We'll go on a second honeymoon when we get two more kids out of college.

Life has a way of accelerating as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we awaken, and all we have to show for our lives is a litany of 'I'm going to,' 'I plan on,' and 'Someday, when things are settled down a bit.'

When anyone calls my 'seize the moment' friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for five minutes, and you're ready to trade your bad feet for a pair of Rollerblades and skip an elevator for a bungee cord.

My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years. I love ice cream. It's just that I might as well apply it directly to my stomach with a spatula and eliminate the digestive process. The other day, I stopped the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happy.

Now...go on and have a nice day. Do something you WANT to...not something on your SHOULD DO list. If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? ;And why are you waiting?

Make sure you read this to the end; you will understand why I sent this to you. 

Have you ever watched kids playing on a merry go round or listened to the rain lapping on the ground? Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight or gazed at the sun into the fading night? Do you run through each day on the fly? When you ask 'How are you?' Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done, do you lie in your bed with the next hundred chores running through your head? Ever told your child, 'We'll do it tomorrow.' And in your haste, not see his sorrow? Ever lost touch? Let a good friendship die? Just call to say 'Hi'?

When you worry and hurry through your day, it is like an unopened gift....Thrown away.... Life is not a race. Take it slower. Hear the music before the song is over. 

Show your friends how much you care. Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND including me if you consider me a friend. If it comes back to you, then you'll know you have a circle of friends.
To those I have sent this to... I cherish our friendship and appreciate all you do.

'Life may not be the party we hoped for... but while we are here we might as well dance!'

ADDRESS BY THE PRESIDENT OF OHANAEZE NDI IGBO, UK CHIEF (DR) EJIKEME ERIC UZOALOR AT THE IJAW NATIONAL CONGRESS (INC) EUROPE  CONFERENCE OF ETHNIC NATIONALITIES OF NIGERIA IN THE UNITED KINGDOM 5^TH FEBRUARY 2011 AT REGENT PARK HOLIDAY INN LONDON.

THEME: NIGERIA @ 50, VISION OF A BETTER NATION, THE JOURNEY INTO THE NEXT 50 YEARS

Representatives of the President & Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria – His Excellency, Dr Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan, GCFR; GCON.

His Excellency, Ambassador Dozie Nwanna, OON, The acting Nigerian High Commissioner in the United Kingdom

Your Excellencies

Royal Father, Lords Temporal and Spiritual,

Ladies and Gentlemen

A man at 50 cannot be said to be that young except there is something wrong with him. However, in the calculations of nation building, Nigeria, at 50, is still a young country. As a young country, we are still grappling with the concept of democracy as understood in the West; our capacity to build strong institutions remains weak. Our judiciary, which has its root in the finest of English tradition, is struggling and as would be expected, mirrors the Nigerian society. Governance is riddled with corruption except in a few States where chief executives are transforming and setting examples of good governance in their States.   

The journey about Nigeria is not all doom and gloom. Nigeria today is a democracy with free press; flourishing of small and medium scale businesses and commercial activities; vibrant entertainment industry and upsurge in the banking sector, and a safe environment to invest and prosper.  Nigerians are resilient people, one of the most intelligent groups comparable anywhere in the world. Nigerians are hard working people, entrepreneurial, ingenuous, erudite and adventurous. These qualities are best demonstrated in our private sector economy. However, these qualities remain to be matched by government policies or approach to sustainable power and energy supply, strategic transportation networks and other socio-enabling imperatives for industrialisation.

A credible journey therefore into the next fifty years as a nation with democratic credentials and potential medium power requires strategic thinking and massive investments, geared at capacity building in our education, health, telecommunications, power and energy, social and development infrastructure and employment generation. These measures will not only energise and strengthen our national institutions but will keep us on the right path to greater nationhood and prosperity.

However, religious intolerance has become our greatest challenge. Day in day out, we read about riot in some parts of Nigeria with ethnic and religious undertone. Many of us have read about the recent killings in Bauchi/Jos. We easily forget the mayhem these riots leave behind.  The casualties of these riots are our brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fathers.  As soon as these mayhems subside, little is mentioned about the people left behind as a result of these annual killings. Some of the religious leaders and politicians that fan the ember of the annual religious hate, bigotry and intolerance have a way of evading justice and prosecution. 

Why should a nation continue to condone these periodic slaughtering of fellow Nigerians and wanton destruction of properties that run into billions of Naira without instituting a credible public enquiry?  Why must we accept these senseless and barbaric killings of Nigerians by Nigerians and destruction of means of livelihood? What has been the effort of our national intelligence community in preventing these acts before they are carried out?  What rehabilitative programmes do we have as a nation for the families affected by these periodic murders? Do Nigerians need Visas to reside in any part of the Country? The answer should ideally be no but what has been done except calling the same religious and traditional rulers behind these killings.

The Bauchi/Jos killings in the name of religion must not be swept under the carpet. As we look into the next fifty years, the greatest calling of our time is to combat and defeat religious extremism.  Nigeria as an evolving experiment must show a zero tolerance to these barbaric killings of Nigerians by fellow Nigerians in the name of religion and ethno-territorial claims.   This episodic event brings tension and mutual distrust within neighbourhoods. It polarizes us as a nation. It re-enforces religious and ethnic hatred and suspicion.  It brings pain within the Nigerian nation-family and ugly image internationally.

It is therefore a challenge to our national consciousness and as Nigerians we must rise as an indivisible nation, under one God to defeat these ruthless murderers that still harbour Stone Age mentality. We, the Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo believe in rotation of Presidency between the six (6) geopolitical zones of Nigeria.

To quote a prominent Igbo writer Chinua Achebe, we should not let others do something for us; we shall endeavour to do it ourselves. So it is high time we rise and do things for ourselves.  

Thank you all.

God Bless you.

God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

A Gentle Reminder.

Chinua Achebe, in his lecture, exhorted Ndigbo to always endeavour to tell their own story and not to allow others to do so for them.To remain united despite differences in dialect to always remember the supremacy of motherland inherent in the Igbo adage of Nneka.To try and take their destiny in their own hands.
