Pull your Pants up!

I was on board a bus headed to the City, and next to me was this brother of color with his pants literally down below is knees.

 I wanted him to pull the pants up but I needed an approach that would be fair and not humiliate him, and ignoring him was going to make me feel bad inside my heart for failure to say a word. 

So I decided to engage in conversation with this brother; ranging from school, his age, his height since he looked super tall, his relationship status. To my dismay, he was very cooperative and all my questions were being answered with great satisfaction. From there, I decided to us that opportunity to hit the nail directly on the head, oh yeah. How amazing that was. 

 But bottom line, I made that brother to understand the fact that, without his pants below his knees, he was still cool and his girlfriend will always love him, as he looks tall and handsome with good sense of approach to everything I asked him. And now, could you please pull your pants up, I requested? And without hesitation, he did. We all felt great afterward and when I got to my destination, he said "bye and thank you".

The morale; don't try to get people to do something with a command because very few or nobody like to be commanded, and if you can, find out why people do the things they do? And then chip in with what you think ought to be about that situation. Don't judge people impulsively and don't be a coward in approaching issues. Give it the best of your conventional wisdom and chances are, you will win.

Happy Friday

Ghana-Yemen relation

This one is to depict the real me, Ronald. The real me is always willing and able to work with people from all walks of life regardless who they are, their color, nationality, sex orientation and religion or creed. I believe strongly that we all have something different to teach one another. In the case of this handshake with my great and brilliant friend Mohammed Zaid from Yemen, I wanted him to know that we can always exchange ideas under any reasonable setting. He is a Yemenese and I am a Ghanaian, a big difference between us besides our respective beliefs. But on our decisions making table, our differences is always given the back bench and pressing issues pertaining our growth and development dominates.
What a character this young man Mohammed is? I like him and it's always good and nice to work with him.

RCC Loyalist

The Pearl River Hilton, which was just a week ago with us the loyal family members of the RCC Corporation. We were there for an all important annual luncheon.  Yes, you can just tell I was very comfortable in that outfit looking like the most noblest of men in town. haha!! From my immediate left is my Vietnamese friend and colleague Khan, and next to her is my Spanish friend Angel Segundo and then Chris Barker.
We had such a great time that day and I can't even try describing it.

Ronnie Smock

This is the man himself in his traditional African dress called the Smock. I love that dress and wish I could always put that on all the time. But it is incredibly heavy a dress and could keep you perspiring incessantly especially in the summer. You wouldn't even try that on in the summer.
