Our identity should not be
defined by putting others
down, but by lifting others
up. That is democracy and I
have not come across any
better definition than this.
In our call for world peace
we fight for freedom. But
lets not forget ourselves in
such ways that in our strive
for freedom we forget the
basic rights of humanity.
This is our holy call.

12 Psychological Hacks
that Will Help You Gain the
Advantage in Social Situations.
#7. Pay attention to peoples feet. To know if someone is
interested in a conversation look at their feet, if they are
pointing towards you, they are. If they are pointing
sideways or any other direction, they arent. Feet dont lie.
#1. If you want to know about something from someone ,
ask them a question and when they are done answering ,
keep silent and maintain an eye contact. They will tell you
some more stuff, almost everything.

#8. When at a party or a meeting, crack a joke and

observe the people who are laughing around you. People
who feel close to each other will be looking at each other.
This is useful for discerning out friendships and other
relationships.

#2. When you try to convince someone over something,

make sure they are sitting and you are standing. This
makes them believe you sooner.

#3. The key to confidence is walking into a room and

assume that everyone already likes you.

#4. Refer to people youve just met by their name. People

love being referred to by their name and it will establish a
sense of trust and friendship right away. Example: Nice to
meet you Alex. So, Alex how do you know John? And
continue to repeat name throughout the conversation.

#5. If someone is attracted to you, their eyes start blinking

more than usual during a conversation with you.

#6. Spot the difference between a fake smile and a real

one. You can find out if someone is smiling for real or
faking it by looking at their eyes. Wrinkles form near eye
corners when the smile is genuine.

#9. The life hack to make people do what you want them
to do. Offer someone a choice instead of a command. For
example, instead of saying drink your milk to a toddler, ask
which mug would he/she like to drink milk from. This gives
the person a sense of control hence produces a higher
chance of a better outcome.

#10. How to win an argument?. If the person arguing

loses his temper and starts shouting, natural human
tendency is to shout back. DONT! Stay calm and reply in
silence. This will piss them off even more. Try it! It works.

#11. Mirror peoples body language to build up trust. If

you subtly mimic the body language of the person youre
talking to, you can effectively build up trust with them. By
mirroring the way they speak and how they move theyll
like you more, because, to them, it will seem as if you are
pretty good compatible.

#12 Inception To plant a seed of idea in someones mind,

ask them to not think of a particular thing at all. Lets say I
ask you to NOT think about ELEPHANTS. What are you
thinking of? ;)

HEALTH

ACNE

SYMPTOMS : Blackheads, whiteheads, and short pink bumps called papules,

which appear on the skin in the form of cysts as a result of prolonged contact with dust, polluted air, sweat, or dirty water. Acne
usually occurs on the face, but areas like the legs, buttocks, shoulders, chest, and back are also not spared by this skin condition.

THERAPY : Tomato Slices: Rubbing tomato slices on scars is eective in reducing the appearance of the marks or scars.

Cucumber Juice: Cucumber juice is an ideal skin toner, which

improves the texture of the skin.
Egg Whites: Apply egg whites on the scars using a cotton ball and
leave it on overnight to get the best eect.

Aloe Vera & Sage: Soak sage in hot water,cool, and then apply it
on the skin. Aloe Vera can be applied directly to the skin.

Lime Juice: Apply freshly squeezed juice from limes or lemons on

the scars, then leave them for a while before washing them of.

Olive Oil: Lightly massage olive oil onto the skin, and it will make
the skin smooth again and reduce how noticeable the scars are.

Honey: Eating honey and applying a honey mask on the face are
found to be eective in acne scar treatment.

Water: You should drink plenty of water, as it helps in ushing out

the toxins from your body and revitalizing it.

Standing behind the curtains is like being at the veil to the after-life, yep before the white light
appears. You saw that scene from recent ghost movie. where the guy gets a flash play of his entire life
and then, boom the light. But behind the curtains you get the reflection of how you got this far. You are
here because of what you have achieved. At this moment you are a great dillema. The only question that
runs through your head is how do I connect to this people, the audience, What do I say? My aim is not to
inspire everyone, that is Coca Colas job, my job here is to change the world by touching at least one
person. That would be a good work done.

I could talk about why I aimed for straight As in school, but then that would make me sound like a

other one have heard most people talk on they made it, so can you. Please get the hell out of here; can
you let us how they did it. I dont mean tell me the bullshit about attitude and determination. It is
important but how did they make it. Now there is the topic on world peace, but for christ sake you dont
look like a diplomat or an ambassodor. For all you know this audience only care about the fact that they
are not fighting with their neighbors left alone having a nation riot. At least that is their world peace.

Just at that moment you look through a crack in the curtains and there she sits in the front roll.
Apart from her long hair which is probably a wig, she still got her high school looks. Nope, she look ...; you

Lyrics
"7 Years"

Once I was seven years old, my mama told me,

"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely."
Once I was seven years old
It was a big world, but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me,
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely."
Once I was eleven years old
I always had that dream, like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
I was writing about everything I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old
Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old
I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother, I'm still sorry
Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month
Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Once I was seven years old, my mama told me,
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely."
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old

the story behind the Lyrics

Is about growing up and getting older, and getting to
know life, and [going through] more and more experiences, and finally getting a family of your own and realizing
that the ultimate goal in life must be to be so good [of] a
father that your kids want to come and visit you when
you're an old man. And not be the bitter old man, and of
course the realization that it was easier to be 7 than to
be 70.
It's a highly emotive song. The singer recalls his childhood, his hopes, his dreams and smoking weed at 11.
He looks forward to turning 60. It's personal. I couldn't
go any further than 60 because my father died at 61,
Graham, who is 27, has said.
Well, its a strange song in the sense it doesnt have a
hook, and it doesnt have like a fixed structure, which I
kinda like about it. It just has this folky vibe that
progresses through the ages and lets you grow with the
song.
I think no matter how old you areif you are 80, maybe
you feel like the song wasnt written for you. But yeah, a
lot of people can relate to it, and thats what I experience
when I hear people talk about it. Its their feelings and
their story that they portray through something I wrote.
It covers a subject not normally discussed in pop music:
The songs basically just about becoming a good father,
and being such a good father that your children would
want to come and visit you when youre an old, boring
man. I had a really, really cool father, so thats what I
wanna be too.
A lot of older people are actually very, very young. And
they look at their age as some stamp that now they can
point fingers at all the people that are younger than
them; in reality I am probably a lot smarter than some of
them anyway, at least. Ive read more books; Ive tried
more stuff; Ive seen more things.
And I think thats why I can write a song like Seven
Years, because I might only be 27, but I know what my
dreams are. I knew when I was a young man that I
wanted to be a father, and I knew I was gonna be a good
father at that.

Time with A.S.K

STOP THE SUFFER SUFFER
I chanced upon a cartoon video today
but was quite loaded with a positive
message for every person regardless of
their age.
It was a video about a carpenter who
had closed from work, turned off all the
inside light and locked up his shop. At
night, a hungry snake slithered from the
nearby bush to the entrance of the
carpenters shop. Finding a narrow crevice in the wall of the shop, it entered
and welcomed itself hoping to find food
to eat. In the shop, the snake moved
over storage wood, working benches
and looked under objects to find food.
Through this action of moving from
corner to corner, the snake accidentally
bumped into a carpentry handsaw with
a jagged edge blade and wounded itself.
The snake without hesitation turned
swiftly and took a deep bite at the carpentry object out of anger and
thus injuring its mouth. (What could a
bite do to a metallic object anyway?)
This feeling upset the snake more and
out of fury and driven into a mood of
revenge, attacked the handsaw by coiling itself around this tool in a bid to
strangle it. Of cause it got worse.

Early the next morning, the carpenter

reopened his shop to only realize a dead
snake on the ground coiled around the
hand-saw. The snake died not due to
the carpenters fault nor any persons
fault BUT rather due to its uncontrolled
anger and revengeful attitude.
Question; is it always vital to respond to
everything that offends us?
Stop. Take a deep breath & evaluate.
We have gotten angry in our lives one
way or the other. Many a time, this has
resulted in affecting our mood negatively, having a direct consequence on
health, clouding the mind & judgement,
hurting ourselves, impacting adversely
on those who offended us, affecting
persons that had nothing to do with the
situation in the first place etc. etc.
Make good of every situation and cultivate the habit of keeping a merry countenance regardless of the situation.
Remember, it is for your own well-being.
Quit renting part of your mind and soul
to tenants such as anger, revenge and
their siblings.
