Imagine a forest where the animals gather under the shade of an ancient oak, their voices rising in a cacophony of complaints. Among them is a frog, small and unassuming, who croaks loudly about the lack of order in their watery home.  The Frogs Who Desired a King, these amphibians, tired of their anarchic existence, petition Zeus for a ruler. Amused, Zeus tosses a log into their pond, declaring it their king. At first, the frogs are awestruck, but soon they climb atop the motionless timber, mocking its stillness.

You stand as the vanguard of a new dawn, a beacon of hope for millions who have long been shackled by the chains of subjugation and oppression. Your actions resonate with the echoes of history, and your courage is a testament to the indomitable spirit of Africa. In the words of Rumi, "The wound is the place where the Light enters you." Africa has borne the scars of colonialism, exploitation, and systemic injustice. Yet, from these wounds, a new light has emerged—a light that you have kindled with your unwavering resolve and steadfast leadership. You have dared to challenge the status quo, to confront the forces ...

We know we deserve better and that’s why we strive for better. We don’t always necessarily get to our satisfied place mentally, we fallout, fall back, and give up and embrace mediocrity. Growing up my dad would tell me stories of the first member of our family to make it big. King Kaku Ackah. A nation builder and leader in the 17 and 18 century. He fought long against the Portuguese, Dutch only loosing to the deception of the English. His family scattered and struggled to find the past glory and nation building skills again. When I was in middle class foster care I was surrounded with comfort luxury and a seemingly easy life. Tryouts for the regional juvenile team in serie A at 9 was quite an achievement. My dads incapacity to reconcile with his failure and submission to Christianity made him jealous .The task to be great had stumbled on me and so he did what every narcissist does best: he destroyed everything; himself, me, and his family. What has all this got to do with mediocrity. S...
