NOT FOR PASSION BUT MONEY.

It used to be fun watching all these sportsmen play their various sports on the field of play but now what do we see, people now play for the money involve. Especially African footballers or better still sportsmen play for the money involved in the sports.
It is now difficult to find people who say they are doing this particular thing for the love they have for it. Now even the kids in nursery or pre-school will tell you when he/she is not given a certain amount then there would be no work done. Why should this be so? It is because the leaders have failed in all their dealings in inculcating into the youths and citizens the need to know that the country in which they are leaving in is their property and when things are done the right way success would be theirs.
Taking a critical look at the country we are in today all that is done is money conscious but not the wellbeing of the society. When I raise my eyes and see the direction the country is geared towards my heart sinks.

All what I am driving at is the fact that citizens no more take the country at heart but rather the wellbeing of only themselves. The content of this write up is geared towards the sportsmen of the country who are invited to contribute their quota to the development of the country but yet decide to do any shabby actions towards their job prescription.
People no more take the country at heart as previously said but rather their selfish interest. Imagine the skipper of the men’s senior national team the Black Stars moving from the Arabian league to the Chinese league all because of the money involve but not the status of the league.
Moving from Europe to Arab frequently diminished his ability to play the game but he never took time to correct that but the money he was earning at the club was his main focus and today he has moved to China because of the money and fame he would get in the football scene and not the activeness of the league.

Asamoah Gyan moved all the name of money. Congratulation for being the 8th highest paid player in the world but think of the others who are ahead of you. They are playing for tough clubs and always getting more playing time. Not any other clubs but tough European clubs for that matter.

I want to use this to urge the upcoming sportsmen and women to take the country at heart and devote their time to the country and forget about the money involve in what they do. Look at Brazil, their footballers contribute a quota of their earnings to the development of the sports in their country but what we see in Africa and Ghana, nothing of such is done and they even demand high money to give their services to the country.

I first encountered him from a distance, but his remarkable sense of humor and composed demeanor immediately captured my attention.

Our time together was truly delightful, and when I casually mentioned him to others, assuming they were unfamiliar with him, I was met with a surprising twist of events that surpassed even my wildest imagination. It turns out that this man's impact on those around him extended far beyond what I had initially perceived. Despite his relatively short time on this earth, his ability to connect with people of all ages and backgrounds serves as a testament to the fact that no one can thrive in isolation.

Paths Intersected: Stories of Serendipitous Bonds

People come together in various aspects of life for a multitude of reasons. Sometimes, the circumstances surrounding these meetings can be a mystery. However, these encounters often blossom into moments of profound connection. One such instance is the bond that is formed between a group of individuals. The memories of our meeting places still linger in my mind, as vivid as the taste of freshly tapped palm wine. I distinctly recall a time when I had to relinquish a cherished position due to the negative comments of those around me. It was a pivotal moment when I was called back to resume my role, as those who had temporarily taken over realized the challenges it entailed. I view this as a divine intervention. Despite being asked to take full control, we became effective partners in our work. I humbly sought their guidance, which provided me with invaluable learning opportunities. Another significant encounter occurred when I felt compelled to seek a unique connection with the Divine. I

A Connection Beyond First Impressions

It was incredible how easily we clicked during our second encounter! Our first meeting was a bit awkward and tense, but I could tell she was just unfamiliar with her surroundings. Despite that, I couldn't help but notice her kindness and beauty, especially those smiles that never seemed to fade. We all couldn't help but sneak glances at her, trying not to get caught in our admiration. During our second meeting, I tried to keep my distance at first, but it was impossible. I found myself right in the middle of things, helping out, and there she was, offering her assistance despite being busy. We ended up having a deep conversation, sharing our experiences. Her lovely French accent and her passion for life struck me. I couldn't help but wonder why such a beautiful woman would choose a life of celibacy. The only explanation I could come up with was her strong faith in God. To my surprise, I later met her father and realized that their warmth and ability to bring joy to others w
