“Great Spirits have always encountered violent opposition from Mediocre minds.”
Einstein

“He who favour learning and the learned God will favour him in the next world”.
Hadith

MacArthurWhen you kill somebody’s good idea you kill a little

Dare to Change your LifeDare to Change your Life
It gives a path to follow as a light-beamTake your dreams seriouslyNever say it is too lateConquer your mountains in stagesRecognize your trade offsBe willing to changeDon’t take No for an answer
What Do Dreams Do?What Do Dreams Do?
It gives a path to follow as a light-beamPeople who have never dreamed
They live depressed and degradedDreams are seeds
They are precursors to deedsDreams get you started, they get you through
Life’s rough and tough phases, which happen tooWhen old dreams lose their attractionFind new ones and find new motivation
Dreams do become realityWhen you assume a doer quality
Dreams are magic greater than voodooThey make you want to do, what you need to do
Mothers and teachers please teach every child this Dreams do come true if dedication is not amiss
So what do dreams doThey give you a reasons to do
To live to aspire, to be true To the potential God has given you.
