Masked people

By Kelvin Eloho

We tell a lot, yet reveal little. Facts so many yet truth hidden. Hinged to solace we live in public, lone rangers. Our smiles hide our sorrow.
So careful of our hearts, afraid to take risk. We tell you so much about us yet that's just everyones' truth. Seeming perfect but get too familiar you unravel the spots. We just want to read you to reveal the rest. Most give up at inception, a lot read the cover and believe that's all. We're so secure we've devised this sorcery you can't just penetrate our hides. We'll just  to open up.

Meaning of Christmas

By Kelvin Eloho
Merry Christmas to you.  Merry: Happy Christ: the anointed one and the anointing Mas: Carnival Celebration (West Indian word) This means Happy Christ Carnival Celebration to you. This is the period we celebrate Christ, the birth of our Savior, the Messiah. Not everyone celebrating Christmas know what they are celebrating. Some think it's just time to be merry with family and friends or go out to all sorts of places and have fun, eat Christmas rice, food and drinks. But what's Christmas rice without Christ. What's the need celebrating Christmas without Christ; without having Christ; without being born again. The son of God became the son of man so the sons of man become sons of God.

There was also the Trade by Barter System: adopted by people who lived in the same locality, and it involved giving what you had in exchange for what you needed. You could exchange a cow for 5 goats etc.  .. The Nigerian shillings were issued in 1958/1959 Even though this denomination is no longer in use in present day Nigeria, the shilling is the legal tender in Kenya and Uganda.  ..

Handle things wisely

By Kelvin Eloho
Some times you've got to leave the good for the greater good, be the villian to save the girl. Hit the ground to touch the sky. Do wrong to make it right. You got to look ahead and forfeit now pleasures. Be heartless to let wrong emotions go. You've got to walk alone to make a difference. You've got to be silent to observe the hawk.  Fake your acts to bewilder the snake. Quiet as dove but dangerous as scorpion. You've got to prune the tree from its branch, let go of the boys and take the boss. Handle the hard ones the light ones will succumb. Know priorities and handle them first. If you can't take the rest and the audience are disappointed. Take the blame and be a man. Please your long-term and the short term is included. The lesser is included in the greater. Be a man of wise choices. Besides, maturity calls.
