SWEET LIES
SWEET LIES
We asked her why she got home late from school and she went on telling us this rather tall tale about how a boy in the class had made a rude remark to the teacher and when the teacher had wanted to know who made the remark, no one owed up and so the teacher decided to punish the whole class by making them clean up the school, which resulted in her coming home late.
Considering that this was about the 7th she had been late, we were not sure whether to believe her story or not. But then again, she was just about 11 years old and we wondered if she could tell a lie this big and why? We were to find out later that she had told a lie (or quite a number of lies actually), each time she had come home late from school. The truth was that she and some of her friends went visiting friends after school.
People will lie for different reasons. For children, the most common reason is to avoid punishment from people in authority i.e. parent and teachers. The trouble with lying is that one lie is never enough. Liars need to keep adding more lies to their lies but unlucky ones still get caught. Honesty, we say is the best policy but we all needed to speak the truth with wisdom.
No one, not even liars, like to be lied to, one wonders then, why so many of us still and why we fear the truth so much. Being a liar can leads to different things in life and that is the main problem that we are facing in our community today. We are unfaithful to each other and that make me ask; could the truth really be bitter?

FOCUS ON THE BIG FUTURE
FOCUS ON THE BIG FUTURE
In an Olympic marathon race held in 1968 at Mexico City’s Olympic stadium, a group of die-hard spectators remained at the stadium to see who was going to be the first and the last in the races. Malmo Wolde of Ethiopia won the race but the crowd waited for the last participants as everything got dark and cool. It appeared as if the last runner were finished, so the remaining spectators were breaking up and leaving when they heard the sounds of siren and police whistles coming from the marathon gate into the stadium. As everyone watched one last runner made his way onto the track for the last lap of twenty-six miles race. It was a participant from Tanzania. As he ran the 400metres circuit, people could see that one of this legs was bandaged and bleeding, he had fallen and injured it during the race, but he had not let it stop him. The people in the stadium rose and applauded until he reached the finish line. As he hopped away, he was asked why he had not quitted, injured as he was and having no chance of winning a medal. He answered, “My country did not send me to Mexico to start the race, I was sent to finish the game.” The Tanzania participant looked beyond the pains of the moment and kept his eyes on the big picture of why he was there. Dear fellow mates, as you proceed on the success journey, keep in mind that your goal is to finish the race to the best you are capable of doing. Be more than just a racer today. Be a finisher.http://www.shapetimer.ning.comhttp://www.sellisup.blogspot.comhttp://www.prince4ademola.wordpress.com
