Quote Left No slave won true freedom by simply asking for it from their oppressors ... slaves won true freedom by suddenlly realizing they weren't slaves in the first place... and that freedom isn't something you earn but something you imbibe. The sooner u realise the better This are not just words Being a slave doesn't mean binded by chains It can be sin or things of the past Let's be overcomers @2023 H2O Quote Right

Quote Left Everything under the sun can be justified. But it's only the truth that brings healing and restoration. If only we spent half as much energy in the pursuit of truth as we do in these fights to have it our way. Quote Right

Quote Left Sad truth is.. when you really know someone intimately, their thoughts, their deepest desires, who they are when no one is looking... Loving them is difficult. Our phones reflect our true identities. And that is why these days a relationship/marriage can end just by checking his/her phone Quote Right

Quote Left like it or not, the problem with this beautiful Zambia isn't anything rather than greed. Every single Zambian who gets an opportunity to make sense, will rather only want to quickly enrich himself/ themselves at d detriment of others. And yet, nothing, I mean, NOTHING! will happen. This, my brother is the problem. Patriotism comes when there is progress. Nobody want to tap his chest and say that mad man scavenging from that Waste bin is my son, brother, father, etc. Quote Right
