As i was walking home, tired after a hard day's work and mulling over the thoughts of an article i had just read about building a pipeline versus being a bucket carrier the rest of your life; i was whispering to myself how i want to build my pipeline, its about time i start building my pipeline... Thoughts of a man i respect and adore popped up; rather his image, his works, and the point at which he is in life crossed my mind; this man called my dad has raised me up from very humble beginnings, you could actually feel when all the resources have been stretched to the limit so that u go to school. This man dropped out of school so that he could take care of his mum whose mental health was not good, he went everywhere with his mum, took care of him until his mum left us(may her soul RIP) Right now, this guy is a Computer Aided design Manager in a company that he has worked for more than 2 decades, where he started as a dustman rather he used to clean the plastic plants set in off

I have learnt a lot, since i went off on you; i have read a minefield; books, blogs, talked to people with sound advice, listened to very in sighting radio shows..but at the end of the day; i ask myself, do i just sit on my minefield of knowledge? maybe i want a platform to share what i have learnt; but doesn't that make me one of the voices that speak the truth to a multitude whose feedback upon action on the said word is not guaranteed? I feel like i hold the key to the questions that disturb humanity, and so does everybody else, i can't say I have read myself to the top of the world; but what i can assure you is that i have the infinite intelligence and power. The saying, "we are our own worst enemies' it is ever so true; how? i know everything i need to know rather i believe i know, but wait till i act on it, i move around with the answer in my pocket instead of removing the answer and using it to answer all my questions.
