Oh Nature!

art to me is a different concept from what another person takes art for. there are various typology of human on earth, those who can create, those who can destroy and those who are major experts in recreating. but the most common factor of these three sets of people is TALENT. talent is not just what was naturally endowed divinely  but its a foundation for whatsoever one learns in his or her environment and how one can equally contribute back to the naturally source which is nature. nature is the ultimate source of every talent a man can be of on earth because the nature is the very first tutor a child is exposed to. Nature is a very wide phenomenon in the sense that it has no limitation for exploitation of mankind. this is so because the almighty formula behind the scene of the creation of nature is a limitless entity. Am never religious here because Karl Marx said and i quote 'religion is the opium of the masses'. but not withstanding an average very man would always give cognizance to the beauty of nature whenever it showcases its essence. OH! Nature. how wonderful you are... thou art the creator of some many destroyers and re-creators.

SUCCESS

They have always preached about success everywhere, every time and even tirelessly,  but only few appeal to success. 
  Today, I will tell you my own realist view to achieving success without intimidation nor plea.  According to the English Dictionary ; success simply means
" Something which happens as a consequence; the outcome or result. 
The achievement of one's aim or goal.
(business) financial profitability. One who, or that which, achieves assumed goals."
  
According to Merriam Webster dictionary -
1 outcome, result
2a : degree or measure ofsucceeding
b : favorable or desired outcome;also : the attainment of wealth,favor, or eminence
3 : one that succeeds

Therefore success is the embodiment of achievement of anything whatsoever done or embarked upon.  Once, my political science Lecturer Mr Dare Arowolo told me to my face that I have been wasting my time on drawing and painting in the expense of Academics.  But to me, I counted his talk to be one of those usual impediments to be expected when plying the road to success.  Success cannot be achieved without consistency, intimidation, obstacles, and determination. 
Determination on the other hand is the quality of mind which reaches definite conclusions; decision of character; resoluteness. It is as well the indefinite decision to an end non comparable to struggles faced therefore.
  Historically, even during ties and conflict and wars,  success was achieved via relentless efforts, determination and consistency.
  Being successful is not only about how much fleet of autos you have acquired, not the much more number of students that graduated under your tutelage, not the financial robustfulness of your bank accounts, not the worth of your latest designer wears in your wardrobe, not the number of countries you have travelled to, not even your position on the Forbes richest rankings in the world but it's absolutely beyond that.   I can feel you really care zealously to know what success really is.
"SUCCESS IS THAT THING YOU ARE YET TO ACHIEVE"

You could as well be in wonder of what you are yet to achieve, but the Economists would say "human wants is insatiable".  Taking a deeper scanning of your life, there's sure to be something somewhere you are or might have really thirst to achieve. Remember SUCCESS is really a state of the mind.

Funny joke

A girl started noticing a guy who
stands in front of her home everyday
in the evening.
She noticed the guy always comes
mostly in the evenings and
weekends.
The guy never tried to talk to her nor
showed any gesture, he just
moves here and there by looking into
his mobile phone and
occasionally stealing a stare at her.
It went on like that for a year and the
girl understood the guy was in love
with her but was too shy to express
his feelings.
So, she told her parents. They too
saw him and liked him. They
discussed with her grandparents
about a likely marriage. But wanted
her to make the first move.
The next day, she went to him and
said, Hi. I'm Jada.
He said, Hi. I'm Smith.
Hearing this, the girl was very happy
as the names were matching like Will
Smith and Jada Pinkett.
The girl went on and said, I really
appreciate your patience and
decency.
You have been standing in front of my
home everyday for about a year now.
So, I understand that you are in love
with me but too shy to say it.
I think i really like you too and would
love it if we get married.
The guy smiled and said, Forgive me
sister!
Actually your home's WI-FI doesn't
have a password.
So, i come here every evening after
work to use free wi-fi to chat with my fiancee.

. Dnt laugh alone....

Hw has bin ur weekend?

Art

Art is a multifaceted phenomenon that appeals to different people in different dimensions.  What a man can deduce in the interpretation of art could be different from what another could get to know.  The creator(artist) stands only in the best position to explain what he or she wants the viewer to know.  Mind you, art is as well the creative expression of the artist's mind, thought, fate and even psychological experience. It's not just about drawing or painting because art is beyond that.  Remember art is not perfect,  never completed but color d only be left abandoned (Leonardo Da'vinci).
  So do your quota and leave the rest to the viewer's discretion. What you say about my art can never faint my paints nor wear my brushes; because all I would simply do after your critique is smile, nod me head severally and say "okay".
