These new age leisure techniques that teenagers of today derive so much pleasure in and engage themselves has completely replaced old time leisure methods like engaging in folk plays & games, folk songs & dances, story telling, rendering voluntary & humanitarians services, joining social clubs like the boys scout, girls guide, red cross, boys brigade e.t.c.
The teenagers of today have succeeded in establishing a great social online presence to the detriment of their academics, religious and moral standards.

Why many blogs don't stand the test of time

Yes, it is that bad because people perceive blogging wrongly. They think blogging is a get rich quick scheme. Thus they concentrate their thoughts on the glamour that comes with blogging forgetting that a lot of hard work needed to be done to attain this status. They preoccupy their minds with earning six figures income, becoming famous and traveling around the world.  No matter how serious you may be, you become demoralized and demotivated when your thoughts finally proves you wrong and only option left is to exit blogging feeling very disappointed.

But in no time people start regarding you as an authority in what you do, build trust and confidence in you and then making money blogging becomes a seemingly possibility.

Two steps backward

It is as though we are in a military junter. The present state of the nation reminds one of those horrible days of military regime where there was no single welfare package for the people. Poverty, hunger and suffering reigned supreme. The country is gradually returning to this status with the way things are going now. The middle class is gradually being eroded. What would be left of the society in no time is a class of extremely low(poor) and extremely high(rich).
When Nigeria returned to democracy in 1999, it brought back the middle class that had been missing in the link for a while. Democracy converted many poor Nigerians into average Nigerians. Civil servants, small and medium scale business owners, private sector workers all had the opportunity of owning a house and buying a car. They could afford to pay their bills, observe three square meals a day as well as send their children to decent schools. All these are dying gradually. Today, I have witness the change of fortune of many average Nigerians into the poor class where they can no longer afford to pay their bills.
Many who had decent jobs had lost their jobs. Statistics showed that over 4 million jobs had been lost in the last 8 months. Crime rate is on the increase. Even long forgotten crimes like petty stealing, house burglar, car vandalism e.t.c are gradually rearing their ugly head in the society and are on the increase. Recently, it was in the news that a boy was burnt to death for stealing garri. Can you imagine? This was a clear case of hunger! Quite a pathetic story which led me into a state of sober reflection.
Am still reflecting, don't ask me why, any way, to be continued.................................................................!!!
