I have grown very fond of the artist below; Tiwa Savage. When I went to learn more about her at Wikipedia, I thought the article I read was so poorly written without any pizzazz, I was forced by my good conscious to re-write the entire thing. This is part of it, the rest is in the link. :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tiwa Savage has been involved in many youth empowerment and breast cancer screening projects across Nigeria. She said, “Ive met with a lot of organizations. I am always searching for ways to give as much of myself as I possibly can to help my beloved country as well as the rest of the world to live in peace, prosperity and health. Above all else, health is of most crucial concern to me at this time. I am working on campaigns to fight breast cancer and AIDS, yet there are so many other issues that we need to address before it is too late, such as climate warming and the horrific international slave trade. That is why we must all step up to the plate and give it our best shot while there is still time to shoot. These are just a few of the issues my heart goes out to. Regarding breast cancer: Nationwide screenings are about to begin which will shift focus onto young girls as well as women over the age of forty. From a pragmatic point of view, the cost of implementing such a program is but a fraction of the cost to the state once cancer has metastasized. The loss of a mother or sister is so much more. We cannot afford not to do this! Our land is brimming over with great wealth. It is in the soil and in the hearts of our people. It is absolutely unconscionable to me in this day & age that anyone should die when there are means to prevent their deaths. This goes for many other scourges running rampant upon our beloved land. Unless we approach each & every obstacle in Nigeria’s quest to fulfill her destiny by creating a true enlightened, cutting-edge civilization, a noble and proud people helping to lead the world with dignity & faith, we must first help those who suffer. This is an international quest we all share everywhere. Everyone on this planet must come together and work in tandem and in love to lift up our unconquerable humanity into a purer light. Saving the planet along the way is just icing on the cake. I am my brother’s keeper. I weep. I pray for all those who suffer. We must not tolerate bigotry or hate. I love Albert Einstein’s quote, “God doesnt play dice.” For me this means, God doesnt make mistakes, therefore I love everyone. Oh, I do apologize, but when I get into a grove, I get into a grove. Another issue which fills me with concern is the heath and well being of our many orphans.They must never be forgotten for they are part of our future. If we invest toil, sweat & love into their well being, they will return the favor. I visit motherless homes quite often but I don’t put it in the press. I don’t want to expose those kids to that.” planetlobster.wordpress/2013/11/21/for-your-consideration-tiwa-savage/
