Our problem is not that we don't know our actions are wronged, we just don't have the courage to correct them.
When it is wronged, it is wronged. There is nothing like " this is how it done here in Liberia".
We have to change the lens we are using to view Liberia. We can't continue to attribute what is wronged, ugly, corrupt, and inhumane, as things that are unique to Liberia and at the same time except Liberia to be a better place.
What if we begin to view our country with the same lens we use to view other countries like America, Ghana, South Africa, Great Britain etc. For us, those are best parts of the world to live and very few places where laws and orders should be adhere to unless Liberia.
Someone has to start something right. Once it is wronged, it is wronged. We have to admit that we are the problems and not our country.
If you took the Americans, Ghanaians, South Africans and people of those other nations we admire most and brought than all to Liberia and in the same manner, left to stay in their respective countries, in no time, we will soon transformed those land into nations of lawlessness, corruption and all of those unprohibited things that we find unique to Liberia.
If we continue to view Liberia as hell, a hell it remains. But if we can monster the courage and begin to take responsibility for our actions by viewing Liberia as a paradise, as we view other nations, so it will become.
Don't respect people because you want them to do the same. Respect them because it the right thing to do.

"IF YOU DO NOT SIT DOWN TO LIE DOWN, PEOPLE WILL SAY THAT YOU FALL DOWN" so reads a great African proverb.
"It is not always the best runner of a race that emerge the victor or victorious". Speed is good, but accuracy is better.
Beautiful daughters and brilliant sons of Alkebulan, my fellow students, intellectual giants and great militants, I serve you greetings!
These things are say to you, I say to all. " he who wants to walk must firstly learn how to crawl."
"The strength of a wise man is not measured by the size his muscle, instead it is the product of his intellectual ability."
IT IS TIME WE LEARN HOW TO SIT DOWN BEFORE WE LIE DOWN OR WE WILL KEEP FALLING DOWN!
SEEK WISDOM!
"He who steals my money and wallet, has stolen nothing, but he who steals my good name, has stolen everything"!
My fellow compatriots, beautiful daughters and brilliant sons of Alkebulan, militants and gladiators, Intellectual giants and positive thinkers, I serve you greetings.

For little over one year or more, it's either we wake up to the writing of hate speeches being circulated on social media or we go to bed with negative propaganda being broadcast on our local radio stations; something that we ourselves (the youth) are the engineers of.
Interestingly, just yesterday when I was a child and still in high school, my motivation and courage were lightened by the widespread notion that "the youths are the future or tomorrow's leaders".
How I wonder if those words still hold true today, because our actions and attitudes as young people speak contrary to what is being believed.
It's indeed a pity how some of us young people are very hateful and negative in our thoughts towards others.
The irony is "we are hopeful of becoming today's or tomorrow's leaders, yet we are very disrespectful and mean to the leaders of today".
Heroes and heroines are no longer those ones whose stand for social justice and equity in our countries or society, instead we celebrate people who physically abuse and misuse the laws and norms that protect us.
I THOUGHT THE PRINCIPLES TO LONG LIFE AND PROSPERITY ARE CENTERED AROUND HONORING OUR MOTHERS AND FATHERS(WHICH LITERALLY COVERS CONSTITUTED AUTHORITIES)? OR MAYBE THOSE PORTIONS OF OUR SACRED BOOKS NO LONGER MAKE SENSE TO US?
Well, we don't necessarily have to be schooled with teachings of the Koran, Verdas or Bible to understand these long life principles. Common Sense teaches us too. "He who steals my money and wallet, has stolen nothing, but he who steals my good name, has stolen everything"!
