LOVE LETTER TO MY FELLOW YOUTH-2

-

-continued from yesterday-

My dear friends, it is time to shine out, it is time to 
show forth the Glory of God for it risen upon us, we are fortunate not to be animals or plants but we are fearfully and wonderfully in the image and likeness of God. 
What blessing, God has blessed us with all spiritual 
blessings in the heavenly places. His love made him 
send his only son, Jesus, to be our savior. Oh! Can't you see what great love he has for you and me?
What should we repay him with? Should we go on 
disobeying his commands? But note that the directions God gives us to follow are for our own good. 

God will still be God even if we disobey His commands and the earlier we know this, the better for us.

Let us maximize our potentials. Let us take the 
risk and shine out. It is better to die for something than to live for nothing. 

Have a passion for excellence, have a 
royal attitude. God's grace goodness and mercy shall 
follow us always. I hope to see you at the top.

Let us end with the words by Maria Williamson:
'Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our 
deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, 
talented, fabulous, etc.? Actually, who are not to be? 
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not 
serve the world. There is nothing enlightening about 
shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure 
around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. 
We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is 
within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.' 


Yours Lovingly,
Peter Gbuchie.

LIFE IS A JOURNEY

Life is in phases, starting from the childhood stage, the adolescence stage, the youth stage and finally the adult stage. There is a common Igbo adage which says: ‘ Mgbe onye ji tete ura bu ututu ya.’ When translated to English language it says: ‘whenever one wakes up, that is his morning.’ Your beginning starts whenever you are ready; it is a personal race not a competition.   Life should be cherished and lived to the fullest; in the spirit of love, hope and faith. There are different perspectives to life. It encompasses all   classes of men in life: the poor and the rich, the educated and non-educated, those in trials and tribulations and those having a smooth journey. We look at life in reality and in truth, it hopes to reveal facts; and helps us to appreciate the beauty of life and get along on the right track while travelling through the journey of life. We can ponder on the bitter truths in life and on issues to aid our cognitive abilities to explore these fa...

PHARMACIST'S OATH: MY REFLECTIONS.

-

How time flies, the good news is that you are the pilot. I wrote this three years ago on my Facebook page and decided to post it on my blog. "I picked out my Pharmacist's oath to ponder on its contents, just like the 10 commandments, there was 10 "I shall" in the oath." The second 'I shall' is very delicate and demanding and it quotes: "I shall apply the full measure of my knowledge,  skills and abilities to improving the health and well being of all those I serve and place their needs above my personal interest and considerations" You may understand better if you do night calls,  after  and vigorous day duty and your body calls  for rest, when the patient comes knocking your sleep should give way for immediate attention to the patient. Today,3rd November, 2017 will be one year since I took the oath before many witnesses  and I thank God for the journey so far... I went to the Chapel to take it before God of whom I rely to fulfill the oath ...

MY DECISIONS

Sometime last year, I paid a visit to an elderly man whose son came to the pharmacy to get him some medications. I could understand what this man would be passing through, so I decided to go see him. When I arrived at the place he directed me to, I gave him a call in order to confirm the house. When I got in, I saw the man sitting; saliva was drooling from his mouth, he also urinated there and the son went ahead to clean it up. I asked to see his medications and the bag of drugs was brought. I found out he had not been taking his medications and had also resorted to herbal drinks which were bought at exorbitant prices by the woman he lived with. You will get to understand later.🙂 Among those of his children present, none was medically inclined. The good thing was that the daughter was an undergraduate student of Food and Nutrition, so we flowed together in the dietary management of her dad; of which he was doing excellently well. The son also helped in his exercise by taking him out v...
