Conscience: The World's Plaster Of Paris!

-

Conscience is one substance that stands very remarkably in the human composition. Its remarkableness finds focus in its conscious coordination of the human mind. But how many in our world today have given the conscience its right of place? How many indeed respond to its leading? Which explains the unrestricted skirmishes we've continuously found our world in.

But then what is the conscience?

Conscience is the human guiding factor, whose nature is programmed to detest wrong and extol right decision. The conscience is a natural package that bears no discrimination. It is so to say, a metaphorical effect of fashion prided by all individuals; a distinct aspect of the human personality which we all share together in common irrespective of social stratum, creed and age.

The conscience finds a unanimity that is devoid of any ambiguity in all of living creatures and the prominent amongst the common identity we bear as humans. It is a single voice that resounds in all human beings; having the same and undivided coating.

The world in which we live wouldn’t have being a theatrical arena of established order with defined coordination save for the spark that is the human consciousness in us and which we proud with as a common embodiment. An escalating surge in lawlessness, wanton orgy of unrestrained disorderliness and a heightened confusion would sure have being the prevailing state of general affairs.

Humans would have been no less than the unfettered beasts of the forests in attitude and overall behaviourism. Like the other animal creatures, he would had being into despicable and horrifying things without reprieve or caution; since the ultimate goal would be to achieve personal satisfaction.

Without the presence of the conscience, man’s relationship with his neighbour would be that of incessant disaffection and one of a recurrence of brouhahas. This is because, like the wreaking storm, man would be daft to remorse for all his inactions no matter the reflecting gravity. Of course, that would not have been actions adduced to a heart that is overtly wicked and ruthless with sheer disregard for the others’ feelings.

That assumption would certainly be out of place; for man by his very nature would have being an entity devoid of salient discretionary overviews of good and right; a beast by natural leaning. Thus, chaos which however would be detested becomes the sustained existential order.

But, that hypothetical description, horrible as it is, is not reflective of the state of our universe as we have it; the one which nature and providence have given to us. Rather, on the contrary, our world of existential reality is one that is structured upon and sustained by the fulcrum of serenity and instilled orderliness. This pivot is given credence and leverage by formed principles, norms and values which are rooted in non-suggestible thoughts and precepts of conscientious individuals.

Essentially then, even in the innervating face of the surging escalation in lawlessness and instability, the world-segment of conflicting inclinations and leanings of faith, race and land are still held together by the adhesive force of a common posterity, espoused in the conscience, the human consciousness. It is the plaster of Paris holding our cracked fabric from disintegrating into shreds.

Circa 2022: Time for a New Beginning

Did you buy that car, land or house you hoped to get in 2021? Did you acquire that visa, wife, job or contract you had dreamt to have in 2021? Did you loose that weight, gained that body, achieved that look or shape you set out to have at the beginning of the year 2021? For some others, there are endless list of plans they'd envisaged to achieve as the year 2021 begun. Did you achieve them? Kudos! If you did not achieve them, don't bother and don't get demoralized. Even as the year gave opportunity to grow, it was similarly and very visibly traumatic: the Covid-19 pandemic and its accompanied effects of recession, inflation and economic summersaults continued to have their biting effects on almost every sphere. It is quite understandable. Nonetheless, your being alive is enough assurance that you could achieve them in the new year, 2022; and you'd so do if you're willing to trust the process and try again. Clutch them along and move with them, but this time around a

Year End: The Crossroad of a New Year

-

The ending of a year brings a binary fusion of emotions: that of stocktaking and that of expectations. The year is ending, so it's essentially right to look back and take an appraisal of what the year ending has turned out for the individual. At the same time, the year rolling out, is obviously an indication that a new one is being launched, hence it'll also be right to make plans and designs of how the new year is to be approached. Credit: Shutterstock The year 2021 began with many of us clutching tightly our expectations and plans already and willing to execute them. Many of us made resolutions, be they financial, spiritual, personal- all geared towards making us better versions of ourselves and contributing effectively to our spheres of influence. Indeed, 2021 afforded us the rudimentary 365days to make do with the plans/aspirations we had in it; and it's within this period, as it winds down, that it becomes incumbent to check and analyse our victories, failures and near

KEMI ADEOSUN: Looking Beyond The 'Honourable' Resignation

-

Very applauding, it was, to hear of the news of the resignation of the minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun. It's very commendable because it is one act very rare in this our clime. It just seems that the penchant for relevance and money has denied the vast majority of the people that essential sense of integrity. That denial is one that has brought about the desire to cling unto power even in the midst of opprobrious criticism to just step down. We've had several instances were public officials formed deaf ears to scathing allegations against their persons and offices until some powers force them out. The case of the erstwhile SGF, Babachir remains atypical.  One can now understand why Kemi's step is such remarkable and verily one that needs to be commended. But the truth is that, as easily obtained in the western world, taking an exit when the heat is on and there's suspicion here and there is but a natural thing. This is to say, even as much as we could appreci
