 * If you have ever been to a war torn country, you will understand the power of your words, and how destructive they can be. By SAMOD BIOBAKU, retrieved 04/09/2014
 * Believe in God’s timing.
 * It’s absolutely important as a writer to take advantage of your emotions,because they usually inspire your writings and opinions.
 * Emotions can sometimes cloud your message leaving people to focus more on your anger than the pain in and message you’re sharing.
 * Women are marginalized, oppressed and abused a lot in this country, it’s something a lot of men and even women want to pretend doesn’t exists but wishing it away doesn’t change it.
 * People hardly ever stand for anything because it’s the right thing to do, they do so because it’s aligned with a cause they benefit from.
 * We all have a voice, some louder than others but equally significant and in the new year I’d like to see others contribute in their own way to activism of any kind.
 * Be grateful who everything you are today, even if it’s not what you want; because it’s a part of your journey and once you recognize this it will lead you straight to where you’re supposed to be. God doesn’t promise that it will be easy, nope, but he does promise that he will be with you every step of the way. By Living Vibes, retrieved 01/01/2017.
