Passes on Paper

Ideally, money should furnish a populace with the means of applying their faculties in industry and commerce; while the right education empowers them to establish the appropriate premise on which to advance their civilisation.

However, in reality, pecuniary pursuits often have people primarily playing for position and power; perhaps due to the unproductive propensities promulgated by the poor architecture of their system of education.

Writing Words on Windows

opportunity exists only in a window of time
so do your best to stay on trend
and don’t get left behind

it takes a while for a grape to turn into wine
so invest more than you spend
and don’t forget to pay your tax and be kind

Sand to Sky

like sand at the bottom of the sea
settled
never to reach the heights of heaven

that’s how it feels
when you dig deep
and can’t resurface

even so
never despair
for if you can bear long-suffering for but a season
joy will soon spring up

but remember to keep some strategic thoughts to self
since you need not say every word
speak on every endeavour
or tell every tale

instead
let your work reveal to the world
the depths of your understanding
