Day Of The African Child

Today we celebrate and honour every single African child, home and abroad, dead or alive, rich or poor, living in the woods, on the streets, in mansions, in refugee camps, in war Zones etc.
With a broken heart, and a shivering mind, I send out my utmost wishes to every African Child who have to walk miles to school and back home daily, African child who have to hawk over 16hrs daily just to have a sip of water and a tiny loaf of bread to survive,  those who are casualties of meaningless Wars and violence, Victims of child trafficking, those who were made to watch their homes burn to Ashes, and their family destroyed. Remember we are the king of the Jungle, fear nothing and keep being strong, we were born strong, our roar will one day give us freedom. I have a dream that one day we won't have to walk miles to school daily, for education will be at our doors, a dream that one day we won't have to hawk to survive, for our parents will be employed legally, a dream that one no African child will be a victim to child trafficking, for our boarders will be shut to traffickers, A dream that one day our government will wake up from their slumber to see that it's the future of Africa that is at risk here, a dream that one day we will not become our present government, a dream that one day every Africa child will go to bed at night with their eyes closed in rest of mind. A dream that one day Africa will roar again and the whole jungle shall know that we are the King.

Dedicated to every African Child.
You are loved always
And you are remembered and celebrated daily not just on this day.

#Maureen - The Meeting

CHAPTER ONE THE MEETING EPISODE ONE Echoesminds. com/Maureen They say life is a long story about how we died, it truly is, and this is truly a long story of one of the most beautiful, friendly and gorgeous minds ever seen, a mind that ended unexpectedly, unfortunately so soon, sooner than anyone could have ever expected, was the sacrifice worth it?  “Maureen, do not take a step out of that door, mama asked you to clean the kitchen before leaving, and I will make sure you see to this before you step out”, Debbie insisted, “but you can do that for me and I will help you out in the evening with the dishes, I just need to leave now, I told Sarah I would make it early to her house, so she can help me with the making of my hair before her younger brother returns, please let me go” Maureen insisted holding and pecking Debbie as she spoke and immediately runs out of the house. “Please, watch the road carefully before crossing ooo Idiot”, Debbie screamed out through the windo...

#Campus Gem's Officially kicks off / The September Gem's - Volume 1

With great joy in my mind, on this 31st day of August 2017, EchoesMinds Campus Gem's officially Opens in the Name of the Most High, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Every week Echoes brings you a Gem from one of Nigeria Institutions, to inspire and motivate the youths in the country, being in the higher Institution isn't just to study to end up in an office but to create and innovate and it's now you can, you have to see beyond being an employee after life in the institution but to become an employer of labour... With God and hardwork, we hope to take Campus Gem's beyond Nigeria in the nearest future. BE AN INNOVATOR NOT THE INNOVATED....... This month we will be introducing to us four Gem's and they are : PEBZY, DERIN'S FACES, HONEY MIX and WITTY GAB... Great Nigerian Students, aren't you curious as to what this four Gem's are into respectively? Well, I want you to be curious, but there is a free 1k(one thousand naira) call card to the first person...

ALWAYS A LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

Many have been so broken, to the extend they see everything about life as dark. Some have even lost the hope of anything good in life. So take life as "Nothing good comes out of it". Verse versa, So many good people have spent their entire life tagging some others as total darkness, but No, there is nothing of such as total darkness, there is always a light in every darkness, waiting to shine, but it needs more attention to do that. Remember, " more charging time is to power the brightness of the touch" the moment you stop charging, then gradually it goes brim and finally dies off. So have we failed to help some people let their light shine by casting them out, not giving a single chance to them. So I inspire you today to stand by those whom you ones tagged as darkness, you could do that from a far not necessarily physically close. The same goes to you who have tagged the world as dark and given up hope, there are is a light out there for you deep within the darkne...
