I must retreat
Battles are not won
with screams and gore
My shouts and thunder stomps are but
weakling and feeble throws
This monster, this towering enemy
holding me bound
I must retreat
A Yoruba adage says that a child does not seek to avenge his fathers death if he does not hold the sword in his hands ( or words to that effect) I am coming to learn that I must pick my battles. As yet there are many that I cannot 'win' because for time and for resources, for wisdom and for patience I do not hold the sword with which to 'avenge my father's death'. So I must retreat not to give up but to wait, grow and ascend to that time, that moment when I will be the elephant and this beast is the ant I can crush with one majestic walk.
Mo sin meye bo lapo .....
Ète lẹ̀gbọ́n; ìmọ̀ràn làbúrò; bí-a-ó-ti-ṣe lẹ̀kẹta wọn. Intention is the eldest, contemplation is the next, and plan of action is the third

When words Fail you, try your fist .....
Ever had that moment where people just don't understand what your are trying to say, either by virtue of your choice of words or just by their gross ability to process simple coherent sentences.
Am gonna say most of the time people are just too self loving to listen carefully when others speak and frankly I just want to punch these people straight up and break their noses or at least cause some form of physical damage so that they can snap out of their stupidity; unless they are already past the curable state and then alas even my fist cannot save them.
I have come quite close to punching people recently and restrain has not been easy in fact I ended up dreaming that I beat the crap out of one person in particular and then I thought, this isn't healthy. Its time to act and get this out of my system. To be forewarned is to be forearmed; If I end up giving someone a black eye its not my fault am just preventing a far worse rage if I don't let it out now .
