Some people are not meant to stay with you for long
Some are just for a season
Some are just for moments
Some breeze into your life and out so quick
Some are there yet without notice but having underground impact
Some are really there and closer than sisters
Some are just like a thorn in your flesh
For some their presence when they are gone, is irreplaceable
For some their presence and absence makes no difference
Some are there in your life to force you out of your shells
They bring the best and the worst in you
and yet give you reasons to smile
But in all every one that comes in contact with us as we journey through life
Have reasons for ever crossing our paths
Cherish and Value every moment you can with the special people
Learn and be stronger from experiences with the odd people
Be prepared to adjust to every situation
Never drop your weapons on the battle field
Until you finish and win your battles
In all be happy and be hopeful for the best
The happiest people living are those that takes life one step at a time and never give up in bringing a smile to the faces of others

SAVE THIS GENERATION- put a stop to child labour
TADE is a nine year old young bright kid, with great potentials within if developed ,but her story is such that she has to hawk fruits of less than a thousand Naira worth on the road every day. She was made to become the income earner for the family of seven at such an early stage of her life, she was not even given a chance to dream rather was she given a privilege to paint how her future would be only if she would be given education.
Children should be given the rights to enjoy life while growing up, they should be cared for until they grow to the age when they are able to make sound and informed decisions. But it is quite a pity, as such is not the case in this part of the world, few children had an enjoyable childhood, the impeccable child hood they ever pictured in their minds, very few had access to quality education and good standard of living.
It is quite unfortunate that only a very minute of our young population can actually compete with their cohorts in other countries in terms of reasoning, exposure to technology,research facilities and high standard of living , the reason for this is not far fetched, it is apparent that these other countries value education more than they value money.
Therefore, if our young people who are supposed to be the vision leaders for this country tomorrow are ever going to fully deliver what is expected of them in many years to come, then there is critical need to act now and to invest heavily in their education now, for a better tomorrow .
There are many children like Tade with potentials that if properly nurtured will end up profiting not only themselves as the carriers but the nation at large, but there is so little that could be done with the lackadaisical attitude the society at large puts to the various forms of child labour.
