SILENCE IS USELESS WHEN ACTION IS NEEDED.

From birth to date, we often grow up hearing the voice of those before us saying, “Silence is golden.” This teaches us patience, restraint, and the value of listening over speaking. Yes, silence can be powerful and awesome. It can avert conflict, allow reflection, prepare the ground for coexistence, and give space for wisdom to grow.

However, there is an uncomfortable truth they never discuss enough: not all silence is golden. Sometimes, silence costs us opportunities, justice, relationships, and even ourselves. Generally, silence causes more pain than joy.

There are moments in life when remaining quiet is not maturity, but avoidance. In most instances he whoever chooses silence when something is wrong may unintentionally allow destruction and loss to continue. Injustice thrives when good people say nothing, so they said. When an oppression or problem is ignored, it does not disappear; it simply grows stronger in the shadows with multiplication effects.

It is far safer to be proactive, and or reactive. Be on alert always. In all you do, be prompt; acting and/or reacting on time matters because timing gives meaning to action. A warning given too late is useless and needless. An apology delayed can feel empty. Love expressed after someone has walked away becomes regret. Life doesn’t always wait for us to get ready.

Experience reminds us that progress comes from action, not quiet compliance. Every meaningful change began when you decided that silence was no longer an option.

Have a wonderful week ahead.

MY VIRTUE AS A SON OF A LOCAL FARMER.
A business partner of mine once asked me,” Sharis, why are you so patient and confident?” And I said to him, “Because I am the son of a local farmer.” To him, my response did not answer his question till I took time to break it down for him.

I am the son of a local farmer. I grew up watching patience take human form.

A farmer is one of the most patient and confident human beings you will ever meet. His work begins far before the harvest and often ends without ovation. He wakes with the sun, walks the land like an old friend, moving with eternal courage and places seeds into the soil with silent faith. Once the seed is planted, there is no rushing nature. He cannot argue with the clouds, drag the forces of the sun or command the rain. All he can do is wait and believe. That's the life of a local farmer decades ago.

As the son of a local farmer, I understand that patience is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of strength. I had watched my father wait with confidence, believing that effort today would turn into food tomorrow. He prepares the soil carefully, removes the weeds, and protects the crops, even when the sky stays stubbornly clear. Each day without rainfall tests his patience, but it never makes him hopeless. He understands that growth happens beneath the surface long before it is visible above the ground.

As a son of a local farmer, I learned life’s greatest lessons from watching my father stand in his fields, eyes lifted toward the horizon. Watching and reading the movement of the wind and the colours of the sky, not for desperation but in anticipation of action, was another way of coaching me in the skill of monitoring for preparation. He taught me that hard work does not always bring instant results, and that faith is continuing to work even when nothing seems to be happening. Just like the seed underground, success needs time, care, and trust.

I looked straight into his eyes and said to him, “As a son of a local farmer, these are the lessons I carry in my mind to wherever I go. I learned to be patient in difficult times, confident in uncertainty, and calm in waiting. I also learned that the rain always comes, maybe not when we want it, but when the time is right. And when it does, the harvest tells a story of patience rewarded.”

I am proud to be the son of a local farmer.

PEOPLE WILL LAUGH AT ME…

“People will laugh at me,” has made many youths remain
stagnant for years.

This single sentence has silently ruined and crumbled more
dreams than real failure ever could. It has stopped ideas before they started, delayed growth, and kept people stuck in the same place for years, watching time pass, bills pile up, and opportunities slip and slide away.

The fear of laughter is powerful because it is social. As human beings we want acceptance and validation. We want to be respected. We don’t want to look foolish or less important. So, we choose what feels safe. Doing nothing, staying stuck, waiting for the “perfect” moment when no one can judge us. Unfortunately, it is delusional to believe that there is a perfect time. Perfect time is an
imaginary conception.

The bitter reality is that while you are waiting, life keeps
moving.

My dear, take time to think about how many chances you
didn’t take; not because you could not do them, but because you were so concerned about someone’s reaction.

Starting a small business, selling food, clothes, or services,
learning a new skill late, taking a job you felt was “below” you.

Meanwhile, the same people you are afraid will laugh are busy
surviving too. Some are struggling quietly. Some won’t even notice you.
And for some? They will laugh today and ask you for help tomorrow.

Age or Degree No Dey Pay Bills.

Respect doesn’t come from appearances, but it comes from
responsibility. When you have food on your table, have your rent paid, and stress is reduced, laughter will automatically lose its power over you.

Honest work is never shameful. Progress is never embarrassing. Trying is never something to apologise for. We all start from somewhere.

Every confident person you admire once did something awkward, small, or unimpressive. They were beginners. They were uncertain. They were talked about. But they moved anyway.

Stagnation, in most cases, is not caused by lack of talent; it
is mostly caused by fear of perception.

A New Year, A New Decision.

This new year, decide that: Survival is not shame. Learning
in public is not a weakness. Starting small is not failure.

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are. If it’s
legal, honest, and puts food on your table, it is worth doing. It does not
matter who laughs.

Because years from now, the real regret will not be that
people laughed. It will be that you listened to them, and stayed trapped.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

FAMILY MEMBERS ARE CALLED RELATIVES NOT PARTNERS.

‎When the jungle gets matured you will realised why family members are called relatives not partners.

‎Being related to someone does not automatically mean they will support you, understand you, or stand by you in difficult times. NO.

‎It simply means there is family relationship which is based on blood, birth, and or "marriage". It is important to note that none on the list is existing in line with your choice, agreement or permission.

‎To live a safe and healthy life, we must try to eliminate expectations and throw away entitlement mentality. This is because unnecessary expectations and entitlement mentality have made many of us to believe that family will always be there no matter what.

‎Unfortunately, that is not always the case. Some family members "disappoint" or "betray" their siblings and nieces or nephews when it comes to basic needs such as emotional support, protection, or material assistance.

‎We called it disappointment or betrayal because we have planted expectations and entitlement, but in real sense there is no disappointment or betrayal because "nobody dey owe anybody". Remember family members are called relatives not partners. If you have any of your relatives that is there for you it is just a privilege. Appreciate him and be grateful to God, never feel entitled.

‎You might be forced to ask for the difference of being a relative and a partner.

‎A partner is someone you consciously choose to walk with, build with, transact with and rely on through mutual commitment and responsibility. Family, on the other hand, is assigned by life. This difference matters, especially when expectations clash with reality. Hmmm....you may not understand. Experience may teach you better.

‎The word relative quietly reminds us of that truth: closeness by connection does not always mean closeness in loyalty or care.

‎Family members are called relatives, not partners, because relationship alone does not guarantee loyalty, love, care and empowerment and / or returns.
Disappointment and betrayal within families are painful realities, (yes, we know) especially when siblings and younger relatives are neglected in times of need. But as I said, nobody dey owe anybody. While family is important, it should not be the hard way and the only way of one’s life.

‎True success and stability comes from developing self-reliance and placing ultimate trust in your Creator.

‎The earlier we learn this balance, the stronger we we will become, the wiser we will live and less vulnerable to the failures of others.

‎Learning to stand on your own feet protects your dignity , your future and the future of your children.

‎Thank you.
Season greetings.

Learn to stand up for yourself.

STAND UP FOR YOURSELF.

When the world tries to bring you down, when life seems not promising, when fear asks you to stay quiet, and your friends and family forget your value.
Stand up for yourself.

Stand up for yourself, advise yourself, and fight for yourself, not with fists or fire, but with a spine that will define your zeal and determination for success. Struggle to initiate gut that you will one day remember that it was built to hold you tall.
Your voice doesn’t have to shout to be strong; noise does not define a warrior, nor does silence mean foolish. Even a steady whisper can move walls.

Stand for yourself. You are not weak for accepting what you cannot change at a moment, but you become feeble and frail when you accept never to attempt changing what is okay by you at a moment. You are not selfish for setting lines, not cruel for saying no.
Do not be afraid to set boundaries; they are doors to better opportunities, associations, and companionship. Setting boundaries keeps you safe, not alone.

Anytime you choose yourself first, you teach the world a better lesson on how to treat you.
Happy new week.

No gain blaming others.

DO NOT BLAME OTHERS.
..it is hard.
Yes, it is tough. Agreed.
But do not blame others, do not complain.

When life feels heavy and road grows steep, you might think it is natural to complain. Unfortunately complaints will not change your bank account balance and excuses do not move mountains; only effort does. It is wise to know that the strongest response to hardship is not blame games, anger or excuses; it is action.

Every challenge place before you is an invitation to grow stronger, wiser, more focused and determined than you were yesterday.

Cheer up and have a wonderful weekend.

Hunger is a destroyer of human dignity. Ya Allah, our Lord, may our daily bread never be in the hands of those who will mock us (Aameen). Jumu'ah Mubarak.
