OPEN YOUR EYES, OPEN YOUR MIND...

OPEN YOUR EYES AND OPEN YOUR MIND TO THE WORLD,
THE WORLD IS FULL OF SO MANY INTERESTING POSSIBILITIES.
ONLY AN OPEN, ENQUIRING MIND CAN ENVISAGE,
THE LIMITLESS POSSIBILITIES THAT ABOUND AROUND US,
THEN GO ON TO WORK AND MAKE THEM A REALITY...

SO LET'S ALL OPEN THE EYES OF OUR HITHERTO CLOSED MINDS,
WE WOULD TRULY BE AMAZED AT WHAT WE SEE!!!
LET'S NOT LIMIT THE VISIONS AND IMAGINATIONS OF OUR CHILDREN EITHER,
LET'S INSTEAD ENCOURAGE THEM TO PURSUE THEIR WORTHWHILE DREAMS.
THEN JUST STAND BACK, LET THEM BE, AND PREPARE TO BE AMAZED.

THEN WE WILL BE REALLY AND TRULY AMAZED AT WHAT THEY CAN CREATE.
JUST LIKE THE PARENTS OF MOZART, EINSTEIN OR THE WRIGHT BROTHERS,
LIKE THE PARENTS OF FELA ~ABAMI EDA AND OUR OWN DEAR CHINUA ACHEBE,
WHO WERE PROBABLY ALL AMAZED AT WHAT THEIR PROGENY CAME UP WITH...
THE WORLD IS THE LORD'S, AND ALL THE FULLNESS THEREOF.

AND AS WE KNOW WE ARE CREATED IN HIS IMAGE, THUS ARE CREATORS TOO...
SO LET'S JUST GET ON WITH IT AND CREATE MY DEAR FRIENDS,
THERE IS NOTHING STOPPING US BUT OURSELVES, AND OUR CLOSED MINDS.
SO LET'S ALL OPEN OUR EYES AND OUR MINDS MY DEAREST OF FRIENDS,
THEN WE WILL TRULY SOAR LIKE THE EAGLE TO EVER HIGHER HEIGHTS,
HURRAY.
 
Open your eyes, then your minds my dear friends

Prof Chinualumogu Albert Achebe; 1930-2013

Then we can soar like eagles to whatever heights he deems fit
