THE LEGION OF TRUTH

  OUR MIND VS TIMER  In our fast-paced world, time often feels like an adversary, racing ahead while we scramble to keep up. This relentless march of time can create a tension between our values and commitments and the demands of everyday life. Whether it’s our work, marriage, or the roles we play in society, the struggle to maintain what we stand for can be daunting. In this blog post, we will explore the impact of time on our core beliefs and relationships, and how we can navigate this challenge to stay true to ourselves. The Pressure of Work In the professional realm, the pressure to perform can often overshadow our personal values. Deadlines loom, meetings pile up, and the constant push for productivity can lead us to compromise on what we believe in. For instance, you may find yourself working late hours, sacrificing family time, or ignoring your health in pursuit of career advancement. The fast-paced nature of today’s work environment can make it easy to lose sight...

  The choice is ours Many of us judge others based solely on their actions and character without truly knowing them. People often judge what they don’t understand. In reality, many individuals want to achieve a lot in life but are held back by the fear of others’ opinions. They constantly worry about what people will say if they take certain actions. Why should we live under the weight of others’ opinions? Why not do what makes us happy for once and forget about what others might say? Their opinions really don’t matter. Some of us live to impress others, which is why we are never truly happy. We spend our lives trying to please others and never do what actually makes us happy. Life is based on the choices we make for ourselves. People choose to hate instead of love, to fail instead of succeed, to embrace death instead of life, all because of silly opinions and comments. They choose failure over success, false information over truth, and ignorance over listening. They choose e...

WRITER'S BLOCKAGE An author often finds themselves on the edge of creation, gazing into a vast uncertainty. The blank page can feel mocking, while the cursor blinks incessantly, amplifying doubts. Crafting each word is akin to navigating a tight rope over a void of meagreness. Yet, within this improbability lies the promise of greatness, the potential for a narrative that rises above fear. Fear of Imperfection Imaginative people repeatedly face with the shadow of mistakes. The anxiety surrounding imperfection can be paralyzing, similar to a relentless editor whispering, "Your words are insufficient." However, every great work carries the legacy of revisions, ink stains, and scribbled-out phrases. Embracing imperfection is essential; it is the pulse of authenticity and a reminder that vulnerability fosters connection. Public Expectations A hungry public awaits the next literary endeavour, while critics sharpen their pens in anticipation. Nonetheless, an author mu...

Friends and things they can't tell you We all yearn for those deep, unshakeable friendships that feel like they'll last a lifetime. The kind where we can be our authentic selves, share our deepest secrets, and know that our bond is unbreakable. However, the truth is that even the most extraordinary friendships have their imperfections. It's easy to fall into the trap of believing that everyone else has it all figured out, that their friendships are flawless, and that they never experience the ups and downs that we do. This creates an illusion of perfect friendships, a mirage that can leave us feeling inadequate and insecure. The Fear of Losing You: Why Friends Conceal Their Flaws We all crave a sense of belonging and acceptance. This yearning for connection often leads us to present a carefully curated version of ourselves to the world, especially to those we hold dear. Friendships, like any close relationship, can become a delicate dance where both parties strive to ma...

  A call for action As I sat down to write this piece, I couldn't help but think of all the men I know who have been silently suffering at the hands of those they love. Men who have been emotionally manipulated, used, and discarded without anyone batting an eyelid. Men who have been conditioned to suppress their emotions, to bottle up their pain, and to put on a brave face for the world. The statistics are staggering. According to a recent study, 1 in 5 men experience depression, and 1 in 10 men experience anxiety. But these numbers don't even begin to tell the story of the countless men who suffer in silence, too ashamed or too proud to seek help. As I delved deeper into this issue, I realized that the problem is not just about individual men, but about a societal norm that perpetuates toxic masculinity. A norm that tells men they must be strong, stoic, and emotionless. A norm that encourages them to suppress their feelings and hide their vulnerabilities. But what does t...

  In My head, I hear things  Trapped in a Box of Knowledge   Things Heard in One's Head As one sits in silence, surrounded by the titanic expanse of human knowledge, one is blasted by a harshness of thoughts. It's as if one's mind is a repository of every piece of information that has ever been encountered, waiting to be unleashed at any moment. The whispers begin as a gentle vibration, growing louder and more insistent until one feels like they are drowning in a sea of words. Things Can't Let Go But Want to Go But, despite the chaos, certain thoughts refuse to leave alone. They are the ones that haunt, the ones that keep awake at night, the ones that make question one's own sanity. These thoughts are the leftovers of past experiences, forgotten memories, and unspoken fears. They are the ghosts that linger in one's mind, refusing to be banished. How Dangerous Can Thoughts Be to Oneself? As these thoughts swirl around, one begins to wonder: how much h...

  Preserve the Kavango Regions  The Kavango region in Namibia is a place of unparalleled beauty, with its lush green landscapes, winding rivers, and diverse wildlife. However, this beauty is under threat from exploitation by those who seek to profit from its resources without considering the long-term consequences for the environment and the people who call Kavango home. One of the key ways to protect Kavango and its resources is through the power of traditional leaders. These leaders have a deep connection to the land and have a vested interest in preserving it for future generations. By working with traditional leaders, we can ensure that any development in the region is done in a sustainable and responsible manner that takes into account the needs of both the people and the environment. The future of children from Kavango also depends on the protection of their natural surroundings. Without a healthy environment, these children will not have access to clean water, fertile l...

Dear Younger Self I hope this letter finds you well and filled with hope for the future. As I reflect on the mistakes and missteps of our past, I feel a deep sense of regret and longing for the chance to change things. There are many things I wish I could have done differently, moments I wish I could have handled with more grace and wisdom. I wish I could go back in time and tell you to slow down, to think before you act, to consider the consequences of your actions. I wish I could show you the pain and hurt you caused others, the opportunities you missed out on because of your impulsiveness and recklessness. I wish I could make you see that the choices you make now will shape the person you become in the future. I know you were young, full of energy and excitement, eager to take on the world. But I also know that you were naive and immature, not yet fully aware of the impact your choices would have on yourself and those around you. I hope you can forgive yourself for the mistakes you ...
