Politics is a game, and like in every game, the rule is simple – control the movement of the game, and you determine the outcome. When a team is holding the game, advancing is the best move. But if there is no way forward, the next option is to hold on to it until a way is paved. And if the opponent is controlling the game, then the team has to make sure that...
C’est aujourd’hui le grand départ pour une toute nouvelle expérience. 6 h 30 on embarque dans le train en direction mile 55. Deux heures de rail qui nous attend. Quelques-uns en profitent pour siester un peu comme moi, d’autres en profitent à apprendre à se connaître et d’autres jouent sur leurs cellulaires. Rendu au débarquement du train, le groupe se dépêche pour remplir leurs gourdes d’une chute d’eau. Même pas à 10...
There has been this argument on why children must take new names at their baptism. Fortunately, it has been proven that it’s not a must and has no canonical implication. But this doesn’t, however, make it wrong in itself. People should be able to do it if they wish or need it, but no one should make it law, as the Church has no law. But recently, another question about women taking...
We often tend to believe that motivational books have keys to success. But, with the crops of biographies and autobiographies coming up in our bookstores, many have started questioning the idea that motivational books can truly answer any question about self-development. All those who have read Steven Jobs by Walter Isaacson, the Audacity of Hope by Barack Obama, Becoming of Michel Obama, In the Black of Jolly Denham, The Stone Thrower of...
Est-ce qu’il y a de l’eau quelque part S’il vous plait, ne me tuez pas Dites mon nom, s’il vous plait Je ne peux pas respirer, mec Je demande juste une seule chose Non pas que vous me laissiez partir, non Je sais bien que je ne suis jamais libre Mais juste de pouvoir respirer comme vous Permettez-moi d’inhaler de l’air libre Car mon estomac et mon cou me font mal Tranquillement,...
A descent into a deep frenzy Friday night Where youths bury their misery in the light Carried in the wings of the mighty Dionysus They entertain all emotions, including lapsus Flowing freely – birds carried by Dionysian music Clasping each other like on a bottle of an Aphrodisiac tonic For the hope they once had vanished like a water vapour When the cabals beat the country to a state of stupor Leaving...
Who would have believed? That such a wonderful day Will pass under our nose Without great fanfare? How can we ignore you? Our World Book Day A successful love story Of the quill and the papyrus But for a tiny crowned virus Who, in Wuhan, started a coup Initially, like a hide and seek Before sending us into our holes But I must gently doff my cap For whoever...
Voilà qu’on était alors à la fin de l’année 2019 Et, les pauvres humains se disaient très forts Ayant selon eux inventé de grands appareils Et, toutes sortes d’armes de guerre et de grands avions Capables de les transporter aisément sur la lune Ils se disaient même presque prêts à aller sur Mars Et, des nations se mesureraient sur des frivolités Certains de la capacité de leurs armes nucléaires Et, les uns...
Just think about this: You have heard that The Chinese plan to invade you with COVID-19-contaminated face masks. Is that not creepy? So, let’s assume it is true. But how can China do that? If it takes up to 10 days to send a cargo of medical equipment to the US, how long will it take to send it to Nigeria? Let’s say 15 days. And we have not talked about the...
