Sober Reflection from Abdul-kareem Yusuf Opeyemi (Irreducible Eminent)

Dying Tomorrow: 5 Questions for the Future of Death & Mourning ...

SOBER REFLECTIONS
Your BIRTH came through Others
Your NAME was given by Others
You were EDUCATED by Others
Your INCOME indirectly comes through Others
Your RESPECT is given by Others
Your first BATH was given by Others
Your last BATH will be done by Others
Your FUNERAL will be organized by Others
You will be taken to your FINAL RESTING PLACE by Others
and
EVERYTHING you owned will be inherited by Others
Hmm..... Why, then, do some of us let our EGO, our CAREER, our MONEY and our BELIEFS undermine the worth of *Others* in our lives, when we are so dependent on Others
Isn't it high time we learn to live in peace and harmony with *Others*, because all through our lives, at one point or the Other,
We will need each Other

RAISE MEN THAT RAISE MEN

"Raise men in men, as only men grows men, you won't continue to be strong always. For the strength of a nation is not in its military might, nor in its technological advancements, but in the character of its citizens. The future belongs to those who are willing to nurture, to guide, and to empower the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and change-makers. As we strive to build a better world, let us recognize that true strength lies not in dominance, but in vulnerability; not in power, but in compassion; and not in individual greatness, but in collective progress. Let us raise men who are vulnerable enough to show emotion, courageous enough to stand for what is right, and resilient enough to weather life's storms.

For when we raise men who embody these qualities, we create a world where everyone can thrive, regardless of gender, race, or background. A world where s...

ALL IS VANITY BY COMRADE ABDUL-KAREEM YUSUF OPEYEMI

"Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity. The relentless pursuit of fleeting pleasures, the never-ending chase of earthly treasures, the ceaseless striving for temporary glory. We toil, we labor, we struggle, but for what? Is it not to grasp the wind, to clasp the mist, to hold the sand between our fingers? For in the end, what remains? What endures? Not the riches we accumulate, nor the titles we wear, nor the praise we receive. Not the kingdoms we build, nor the empires we conquer. For when the dust settles, and the ages pass, what remains is the legacy of our hearts. The love we shared, the kindness we showed, the compassion we gave. So let us not be fooled by vanity's siren call. Let us not be seduced by the fleeting allure of earthly glory. For true greatness lies not in what we accumulate, but in what we give. Let us invest in the eternal, not the ephemeral. Let us build bridges, not monuments. Let us sow seeds of love, not harvests of fame." By Comr. Abdulkareem Yusuf ...
