Once you lose your influence e.g. status, fame or a job,
Your phone will go silent.
The many calls you were used to receiving, until you muted your ringtones, suddenly die.
The calls you were ignoring are not there anymore.
The message inbox becomes dry.
You change your ringtone from "silent" to "sound with vibration" so that you don't miss any ringing,
- But nobody is calling,
That is when it hits you that the people who were surrounding you with choruses of praises, were just people.
They already shifted their allegiance to the next influential person.
They were there because of what they were gaining from your influence, not you.
You become forgotten as fast as you rose to the position you just lost.
Therefore,
If you are still in a position of influence,
Remain modest.
Use your influence to support someone's life.
Become the candle in someone's dark moments.
Refuse to be proud and arrogant.
Ignore your haters. Don't respond to insults.
Most importantly, don't vomit on the shoes of those beneath you.
You will one day borrow their shoes to cross the bridge of your rock-bottom.

THE MAGIC OF THE DRAGON FLY
40 years ago,
We slept peacefully without mosquito coils, sprays and insecticide-treated nets.
Mosquitoes were there but they were never as blatant and as confident as they are today.
In fact, I suspect the female anopheles mosquito was not as virulent as it has been lately.
I even think we inflated Malaria statistics as a window to allow Bill Gates to sell his anti-malaria products.
Lately, he has manufactured GMO mosquitoes which I think will bring a new type of deadly malady. He will then claim he has the solution for this new malady from his GMO mosquitoes.
But did you know the dragonfly (pictured) eats mosquitoes?
One dragonfly can eat 500 mosquitoes.
- and not just the adult, but the eggs, the larvae and then the adult.
The dragonfly disrupts the entire life of a mosquito.
Mosquitoes fear going anywhere near these dragonflies.
That flower up there is called black-eyed Susan and it attracts dragonflies.
In the village, the vegetation with this flower was so safe that there was no mosquito anywhere near it.
But what have we done?
We have called it a weed. We have used glyphosate to kill these natural flowers.
In addition to this, we have sprayed our farms with insecticides, therefore killing the dragonfly.
Now we claim we are researching how to eradicate malaria.
One thing I have realized is that nature was well-created with checks and balances.
Nature had a way of correcting itself and maintaining an equilibrium of the ecosystem to allow life to thrive.
But human beings with their artificial education have disrupted life on Earth.
Indeed, it is written,
The most dangerous animal on earth is the human being.

1. Honey is high in sugar.
2. One tablespoon of natural honey contains 17 grams of sugar, almost 6 cubes.
3. The sugar in honey is mainly fructose and glucose.
4. Both fructose and glucose are simple sugars and their excess can lead to overweight, insulin resistance, inflammation, liver and heart problems.
5. If you are looking to lose weight, honey is not your friend.
