Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)

Is not strange to have educated people in a digital information age humiliated by a character like that?
“Nea 3wo odo tumi ni nea 3firi akoma mu” ampa. Nyame t’ase, na Nyame nti,
M3bo w’abaso p33.
